We've played 3 of the top 6 already. 2. Our midfield look like something out of 2015. It's not CS fault that Iborra is injured and Drinkwater is sold and Silva is in a legal mess. Just think about this, we are an Ndidi injury away from lining up with James/King with Amartey coming on as a sub. That is scary. It's quite pathetic really; going to be a big ask to progress with such a limited midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozvaldo Posted 12 September 2017 Share Posted 12 September 2017 We're 4 games in FFS and have had 3 of the hardest teams to play. Two of which, were away from home. And we nearly got a point off the current champions. Some key players are injured. One isn't allowed to play. Just calm the **** down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are to have a good season and get back in the top 8 it'll be because the likes of Maguire,gray nacho and iborra are having a good season. Not because Albrighton and okazaki are working their a#$$ off. Although it would be needed too. Shake needs to go bold and figure it out. Lets see what nacho and vardy can do. Give us iborra and ndidi and let Gray play on the left. We need to to start scoring goals and soon. If we don't get 3 pts next game then the relegation battle is on! The future is now. Vardy Nacho Gray Iborra ndidi mahrez We're four games in to the season having just played games against Arsenal and Man United away and defending champions Chelsea and Brighton at home. We unsurprisingly have three points which we unsurprisingly gained from the Brighton game. We've had a fairly decent start in terms of performance. Relax and wait until we have a decent stretch against teams other then Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, Man United and Tottenham (they're bonus games in fairness). We're better than the rest, you'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vardy Nacho Gray Iborra ndidi mahrez Musa was around when CR was manager hardly a new signing. Ibora is not a new young talent I commend somebody from the US supporting our team as most just follow the usual Man U, Chelsea etc but you really are way off the mark. As for a relegation battle look at the our fixture list how many teams will get a result against Arsenal, Utd and Chelsea? Xmas is always a good benchmark on how well a team is doing. Please don't find judge all the comments on here as an insult....keep calm and keep supporting Leicester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the fox Posted 13 September 2017 Share Posted 13 September 2017 Unpopular opinion. If we had all the players fit (with a bit of Luck) we could've been sitting on 8 points. Silly mistakes and bad ref calls cost the team 5 points (a draw vs Chelsea and united and a win vs arsenal) I think a Europe league spot is very realistic.

"Is Leicester afraid..." in my mind refers to the city as a whole, not the club. "Nottingham are awful" = the team "Nottingham is awful" = the place. Get it right, Yanks, come on, it's not that difficult. I thought it should be "Are Leicester afraid of the future?" anyway, Is doesn't sound right.

the messenger Posted 13 September 2017 Share Posted 13 September 2017 I get what your trying to say there's a lot of people on hear that can't see further than their nose. Last season I called for Ranieri out in November I could something was wrong but I got lambasted for my view points. I don't expect many changes to the side at Huddersfield but I'm hoping against Liverpool in the cup shakey fields a strong side with nacho up front with Vardy, Gray and Iborra in and probably 343/532 formation.

sylofox Posted 13 September 2017 Share Posted 13 September 2017 It's not just Leicester that's afraid. Let's be honest if North Korea don't stop fvcking about the whole world could be at war. Then again after Vardy in the casino and the slit eye comments in Thailand perhaps Leicester could be a target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quickly get down the bookie's the odds on a Europe League spot will be great. As far as the present team is concerned I think you are getting ambition mixed up with ability. Though I commend your loyalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rigga Posted 14 September 2017 Share Posted 14 September 2017 We had our opportunity to invest in real talent after our PL win...Gilfi, Keane amongst others would be a firm part of LCFC going forward if we had been a tadge more ambitious instead of relying on cheaper failures! still not convinced with one or two signings . Dragovic not match fit after playing for club and country before we signed him ? What is that all about ? Ulloa on any contract never mind a 2 year one is crazy. i certainly don't think we have made the most of our success from the past couple seasons and don't see us getting anywhere nr where the owners want us to be consistently!

Usafox1 Posted 16 September 2017 Author Share Posted 16 September 2017 Its now 5 games into the season and it's becoming more and more evident that this team will struggle to win games no matter where the game is played. They're becoming static and very predictable. Frankly, there are just too many stiffs and technically suspect players on the field at the same time. I hope shakey embraces a more positive style as the Liverpool game approaches or else the relegation battle is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the plus side if you read what Shakey posted on LCFC.com post match reports, he does acknowledge there were issues today. https://www.lcfc.com/news/474601/shakespeare-relieved-and-pleased The Liverpool game will show if he is able to turn it around.
