What’s gone Wrong (in 20 words or less)

[TheUltimateWinner]

No strength in depth. Players tired. Players complacent. Manager complacent. 

[sylofox]

To many passes to slow in the build up and so predictable. All makes us easy to play against.

[CosbehFox]

Belief in their hype. 

[Stoopid]

We keep losing (3).

[jamesmilner]

Chillwell turned up pissed , vardy faked injury for childbirth , maddison drank £600 wine out bottle etc BIGGY BIG BOLLOX SYNDROME 

[st albans fox]

We stopped scoring more than we should and the opposition started scoring more than they should 

 

those pesky stats 

 

and that leads to a drop in confidence and we end up here .....

Because players aren’t showing for the ball in tight areas and others aren’t brave enough to make the risky pass when they do ..... confidence .... effort ......

1. We needed a couple of signings in Jan to bolster the squad.

2. Too many injuries.

3. We should have thrown in the domestic cups at the first opportunity.

4. Rodgers persistence with one particular player who is badly out of form.

[TMELcfc]

Everyone’s overrated, but they’ve believed the hype. Manager included 

[Bazly]

BR got a new contract and BC and JM had smoke blown up their asses with talk of bigger clubs.

It doesn't explain everything but we don't seem to be having a great deal of luck. Kelechi was nearly decapitated against Man City with no penalty and a pretty dubious decision denied him a goal last night. But luck does turn in the end.

[Shane]

Ricardo, Evans, Soyuncu, Ndidi & Vardy are top quality. Everyone else overrated. (12)

[foxy boxing]

What's gone Pete Tong!. the players look jaded and tired. we are going through a sticky patch which we hopefully will come out of. the players need to get back to basics of hard work and working together.

[The Fox Covert]

2016 title-winning team: captains on every part of the pitch. 2020 team: no captains on the pitch.

[Deucalion]

It has all gone wrong since I had a bet we would qualify for the Champions' League with the PE teacher. (21)

[Blue ROI]

Not swapping the Kop and the family stand (8)

[oxtonfox]

We ain't no premiership heroes,

And we ain't no bad players too,

Just plain young players in blue shirts,

Most remarkable like you,

And if sometimes our buildup isn't all your fancy paints,

Well plain young players in blue shirts don't grow into plaster saints

(45)

 

Well its Chilwell this and Chilwell that and Chilwell co'er behind, 

But its Chilwell  " run forward please" when there's trouble in the wind, 

Theres trouble in the wind boys,

Theres trouble in the wind,

But its Chilwell "run forward please" when there's trouble in the wind.

Lack of fight, lack of passion, lack of leadership. 3rd in the league and feel some cant be arsed (19)  

[That_Dude]

Young team.

Lack of squad depth.

Overachieved first half of the season (12).

[Mickyblueeyes]

No movement up front. We are passing sideways because there is a lack of intelligence on how to create space by the forward players. We will not finish top 4 (my opinion) because we don’t have enough quality at this stage.

[BigGibbo]

Overachieved at the start - underperforming now. Will revert to mean and remain Champions League sans heads completely going (18).

[Crinklyfox]

Lost confidence.  Lost belief.  No cutting edge.  Nothing that can't be overcome.

[nettle]

Lost the dressing room.

[UHDrive]

When we get it down the flanks we aren't a) whipping the ball in and b) getting our midfield players in quick enough. Our midfield aren't showing any urgency to get the ball and pass it at all, massive concern. I'd put Praet in as cam with Maddison and Youri in front and deeper and getting it out wide quicker which will allow the full backs more time to get forward too like they were doing in the 1st half of the season.

[kingfox]

When the season gets tough the majority of our players lack backbone, same case last season(16)
