Apart from the goal this is no better than it was in the last weeks of Claude.

The first 25 minutes were very positive, so at least we started well... the last 20 was pretty much the same we had saw under Puel 

[StriderHiryu]

We’ve seen both the good and bad from Leicester this half. Spells of good possession and pressure but also many inexplicable mistakes and defensive frailties. Plenty to work with for our new manager, but also plenty to fix. 

[Torten]

We were amazing for 20 mins.

kasper is brilliant.

Need a second.

 

[Dahnsouff]

Vardy off - Nacho on

Nacho will offer more interplay than Vardy.

Maddison not off, just a smacked botty at half time.

[foxes_rule1978]

Rodgers has work to do no doubt, he has pretty much seen our whole season in one 45 minutes...

[FantasticMrFox&Son]

Wow, actually leading at half-time, that's a novelty in 2019.

[420Hashish]

You guys do realize that Brendan Rogers isn't in charge of this match. He's just watching right now. He'll assume command for the first time at the Watford away game next Saturday.

Vardy is suspect and has no excuse now.

 

Barnes is OMFG 

Puel may have gone but most of that half was the same tactics. He is still isolated.

[Farrington fox]

Madders and Vardy not at their best

[Jaspa]

[KingsX]

[Nicolo Barella]

Concede in the first fifteen minutes, and then aside from a couple of howlers of their own making largely control the match looking more likely to score?

 

We seem to have swapped with Brighton

Do we need a Rodgers poll yet?

i think you can definitely tell the standard of training is low. They don't really look match sharp.

was thinking they looked a bit tired

[SecretPro]

Has to be said that Maddison is very, very slow. Technically good but oh my god soooooooo slow. 

[tsintskaro]

Brendan fcking genius

[Chester Dontlie]

Hey we're not trailing actually we're leading! Feels like Christmas

 

[sishades]

Football defies logic and reason. We are worse than Saturday yet are winning. BHA are by far the better side and should not be losing. However the result is much more important than the performance.

He has a mic to Stowell on the sidelines.

I think this is what they were working on in training, we will be different with Rodgers.. it was more of the same because Puel only went yesterday.

Noticed this. Not just slow, but insanely so.

[foxes21]

Finally we have scored the first goal.

 

However we need more pressing from the midfield and forwards so we can win the ball back.

 

Everyone seems to be happy to stay in position and guard the space, no one is actually pressing the opposition really. 

[Chester Dontlie]

Indeed Madders takes ages on the ball, effectually slowing our every offensive move. Hope Buck can take some sense into the lad

[Superpants82]

Chilwell well off the boil, Maddison has been destroyed by Puel, Ndidi is a complete passenger along with Vardy. Very good goal, glad Gray got it. Loving Barnes and Tiellmans first 20 min.

Agreed either it has to change or he needs replacing.. Harsh i know, but if we are not playing to his strengths and/or he cant adapt then he is no use.
