Leicester 1- Everton 2 post match thread.

[Crispin LA]

Hate to lose to Everton, Morgan sending off killed our game, we were playing better in the second off could have won this game 

[Trelleh]

Wes..

[Marutimon]

Chillwell and Ndidi were great - heads above the rest. Morgan terrible. Mendy and Vardy poor. Ricardo was pretty bad, but he scored that goal so he gets a pass. The rest mediocre, but looked pretty good prior to the Morgan brain fart.

Disappointing. We are competing against teams like Everton for a European spot. 

Err. No we're not.

[Beechey]

Other than the obvious ones, Vardy was really bad. Needs to get involved in play more - and uou simply cannot miss clear 1 on 1's like that.

[Jattdogg]

Not the result  we needed as it was a very winnable game given are away at arsenal next. Let down massively by wes and puel today and a few others.

 

Time for a pint.

 So poor in the second half, I know we were down to 10 men but that doesn't mean you can't string 2 passes together. It was obvious Morgan would be sent off why wasn't he subbed?

Agree.

 

And then Ndidi has to see more of the ball. As we know, he is not even at football league level when it comes to passing.

 

I would prefer to have Iborra instead of Ndidi. Mendy can do the Kante-like work.

Maguire hand covering his mouth laughing with Pickford at the end of the game. Poor form that. 

What a cvnt. Get rid of him too

Good game from Chilly and Mendy

 

Most of the others below average.

 

Ndidi and Morgan poor. Iborra and Evans in for the next match.

Yes, if only Ndidi could pass the fvcking ball to our players we’d have had half a chance. 

[NotTheMarketLeader]

Still Puel out. 

[Nod.E]

First time I'm questioning Puel after that.

 

Kenny was having a shocker for them. Why not exploit an obvious weakness?

 

They're awful from set-pieces defensively as well, so we should have been bombarding the wings to either win corners or get in behind a weak full back.

 

And to not take Morgan off (let alone play him in the first place), when it was obvious he was heading for an early bath is hard to swallow.

 

They were there for the taking and in this case you feel a better tactician would have found a way.

[coolhandfox]

Morgan legs have gone, hence the niggling fouls, only us could bring in 3 centre backs and still play a player pass he's time.

 

Slow start again, always give us a mountain to climb, lack of attacking options off the bench.

 

Bad day at the office for Vardy and Maddison who still looking for Gylfi, turned inside out.

should've been off. As soon as he was booked.Any fool could see he was going to be sent off (apart from Puel)

Harsh. You should have confidence as a manager that your captain won't do anything silly. 

 

Not at all. He's already had his final chance, it's just stupid to leave him on the pitch. Dean Smith took Odubajo off at Leeds earlier in exactly the same situation. It's just sensible management.

How can you leave with the score so close?

Yes the score was close but City never looked like getting across the half way line let alone scoring a goal. 3 red cards in 8 matches....absolute wank of a performance and the discipline is non existant.

Weak management from Puel, he saw what happened against Bournemouth. As soon as he was on a yellow he was an accident waiting to happen.

How so may I ask? 

[Sammy]

How many fouls did Morgan actually commit?

 

Obviously the first yellow is clear but the second one as a single tackle is just ridiculous to be booked. I remember one other foul on Richardson that was made to look worse than it was.

 

Really don't see how the yellow can be justified by Leicester fans other than 'oh it's Morgan he's so slow/rash'. Marriner then doesn't book Tosun for a late tackle on Chilwell later in the game because nothing is made of it. Angered me 

 

 

[lgfualol]

Morgan's done enough to ensure he shouldn't be picked. If he starts another game then he really does have some clause or dirt that keeps him in the team. He looked like he wanted to go off, making stupid challenges when on a yellow then looking pretty unphased when getting the red. 

 

Puel probably should have subbed him but you have to think, what if Wes got subbed and we run out of subs, then have an injury?

 

Time for Evans to step up.

 

Shit way to end a 3 game win streak. If he didnt get sent off would have been at least 1 point.

[TMELcfc]

I'd really love someone to explain to me what they think Puel's game plan is... I am assuming it must be:

- Start slowly, pass sideways extremely slowly and try and bore everyone to death.

- Start 2 defensive centre mids, neither of which are comfortable on the ball, so Maguire has little choice when Kasper kicks it to him...

- Score on the counter attack, but for god sake don't do it again... go back to playing the ball sideways

- Start Wes Morgan and hope he doesn't f*** up again, even though he invariably does (one good game against Joselu though must mean is the best in the world)

- Make substitutions no one else would make...

 

That game plan has beaten Newcastle, Huddersfield, Southampton (and flukely Wolves)… that's our season so far. As soon as we play anyone who can push for top 10, we lose.

i'm sorry, but he made that many bad tackles he could well have been sent off early, with no complaints.

Puel put our most skillfully player on the left, and your right any decent manager would exploit there weakness but we didn't.
