It's only a point and a couple goals down to 13th. Then 7 more points to 14th.

And only 4 points away from 6th.

4 defenders 2 defensive mids...0-1 down...classic

[Larry_LCFC]

Anyone that thinks we aren't sliding into a relegation battle is seriously deluded. We aren't even getting the scrappy results anymore and the teams around us have started to win. How people continue to defend this clown of a manager is beyond me.

I wish we had a Gary Parker/Steve Thompson type midfielder who can put their foot on the ball and control a game

I'm there age maybe I can do

[jonny_wright]

How long before the Puel inners say “but we are 14th and only 6 points off 10th”

Bit old though aren't they?

[don_danbury]

this is super exciting stuff. edge of my seat watching this

[SecretPro]

Gray and Albrighton have been grim. I'm almost nodding off too. 

[spacemunky]

Proper call there.

[NewburyFox]

This system will not work with two CMs who are so limited on the ball. Iborra and Silva aren't the long term answers so a playmaker who can hold his weight in the middle has to be a priority in January. 

 

The ball just bounces off Ndidi and Mendy, it's taking them two or three touches to get the ball under control and by that point any angles are closed off. As a result, the ball goes backward or wide, where it's chipped forward or crossed to Vardy, who stands no chance of winning it on his own.

Are we still ignoring that he's getting more big chances per 90 than ever before? And is just woefully out of form?

I’d be frustrated as hell he barely gets a sniff at goal absolutely nothing in this game

nothing better than pointless crosses 

Dunno, the pointless offside is a firm favourite of mine!

We've been much the better team this half. Quick, crisp accurate passing, loads of crosses but none with the right quality. 

 

They have had one chance and taken a shot on goal, and scored. 

 

We've had no shots on goal and not tested their keeper. 

 

I wish we would just get the ball to the edge of their box and shoot, test the keeper ffs. Not like he's world class, or their defense. Don't see the point in pinging the ball out wide if we can't get the quality to them.

We’ve not, we’ve become the team we we’re all taking the piss out of a couple of years ago. Passing for the sake of passing with no end product. Roll on a relegation scrap, cos that’s where we’re heading. 

[lgfualol]

Need to bring Harvey Barnes back. Surely isnt any worse than Gray or Albrighton. They literally do nothing in 3/4 games.

I'm not a braying, anti-Puel type but can you see us actually making up that ground? we've had a good unbeaten run but they were mostly draws against weak sides

So, yes we are ignoring stats and facts to suit an agenda...

Sometimes we look really good in games but it is in stages and usually when losing 

[Matt]

What a half, intense stuff indeed!

 

I fuching love the way we're playing, such excitement, a joy behold, so so privilaged!!

 

Immense.

 

Bring on the 2nd half!!

[VLC86]

I hope Puel gives them a good whispering to at half time.

[AlloverthefloorYesNdidi]

After the first 20 mins we started playing alright, some good moves and made a couple of chances.

Fuchs is quality

 

Mendy should have closed down quicker, cant believe he dawdled again

 

But what a strike

 

No need for people to be Puel outting because we conceded a goal. We played ok

[Stevosevic]

Time to go please.
