What on earth has happened to Ndidi?

Puel came along....and up to this first half I was a Puel in man....he's sadly strangling the life out of our team.

‘Palace have an awful record with out Zaha’

 

*Enter Leicester City*

Reminds me of when Villa hadn't scored at the Holte End in the second half since about 1976 until we turned up.

 

And who scored it? Alan Bleeding Hutton lollollol

Not good.

 

First 20 minutes we were rubbish. Giving the ball away continually.

 

Then we came into the game but Ndidi has been atrocious, Mendy should have closed the goal scorer down, Maddison has been non-existant and Iheanacho hasn't touched the ball.

 

Has Vardy done any better today than Nacho in the last game?

 

I think Iborra on for Ndidi is a must and Nacho on for Albrighton.

 

Bright points:

 

Wes has been pretty good and Fuchs the best player on our team today.

Err lol

From 25 minutes we were slowly looking like the better side, undone again by another 25 yarder.

 

Our ball from midfield to attack though has been piss poor, Palace swarming our midfield, Ndidi especially has zero composure in tight areas. Maddison hasn't been in the game either.

True and I don't think hat him combined with Mendy is going to get us anywhere. Neither of them is able to pass forward or shoot from distance. We're relying too much on the wingers/FBs to create chances and all they need to is to pack the midfield since crosses rarely find the target.

This thread is far worse to watch than the match. 

Has it been? Mostly self deprecating gallows humour. Maybe a few 'abusive' posts towards the team but it's been a dour half of football which most players have been dreadful and the manager has totally gotten it wrong with our approach today. What do you want, highly reasonable, balanced posts in a quick moving match thread? Irrevocable support for players clearly not playing well or even getting worse? We're all Leicester City fans here, we all want the team to do well and frankly we're not even playing fairly well. We've got very difficult fixtures coming up and our record against the top 6 (as expected tbh) is horrible but you have to compensate by picking points up against rank sides like Palace.

I expect we will have 30 minute spell we’re we create chances

Unfortunately the 30 minutes will  be spread across 20 matches....

I second the Nacho switch for Albrighton.

 

Albrighton would cross the ball if we had Warwick Davis in the box surrounded by a defence consisting of giants. Vardy is suffering big time from such limited players. 

I disagree, this a okazaki Vardy dog fight

Anyone know how the fook we are losing this?

:dunno:

Yes, we do not possess a single footballer who can shoot and we seem to have forgotten the whole point of football which is to score a goal. When the topics of conversation are about how good our defenders and goalkeeper are, there’s something wrong.

Chilwell's been our best player so far, that's why.

We need to bin off the the Mendy/Ndidi partnership. Issue is we don't really have anyone to come in and break that up. 

Not if we persist with 423 fuching 1 we don't, no.

Not Puel's fault Ndidi has absolutely zero composure on the ball. Puel sucking energy out the team makes no difference to Ndidi kicking it out for a throw when trying to pass 5 yards.

Drop Maddison back to partner Mendy. Take Ndidi off for Okazaki.

 

I love Wilf but he's really testing my patience. I've said it before and I'll say it again, he's a centre back, that's his position IMO. He looks every bit a defender converted to midfielder right now.

They may be the root of the problems but we then have a fully fledged ****ing tree of problems above and around it.

 

Do we? I don't think so. We're unable to transition from defence to attack consistently well because we can't pass through the midfield. We don't make the triangles and pockets of spaces needed to create openings, and the main cause of that is the centre midfield. We're unable to get Maddison on the ball in dangerous areas because we can't get the ball to him quickly, so he drops deeper to try and get involved. 

 

The system needs a deeper midfield fulcrum to dictate play and we don't have it.
