3-4-1-2, we looked good against Man City (and actually capable of creating something). Also means we don’t have to play any wingers! 

against 2 strikers? Not a chance that gets played I'm afraid.

If this isn’t the final straw and shows we are crying out for a half decent winger then I really don’t know

can you imagine a Mahrez type player in this team now?

So much hyperbole round here  

 

Everything's either ultra shit or ultra amazing. Never an inbetween.

When did you last see ultra amazing?

Can you imagine the response if we subbed on a defender after that half?

It's a chore to watch again. Much like with Puel.

 

But now I can't as easily tell myself we're developing the youth.

 

Brum aren't good. But we can't be arsed.

Nailed it 

[lcfcsnow]

May as well have played Terell Pennant, these two are done

Maddison is the weakest man I think I've ever seen

Makes Paul Gallagher look like a bodybuilder.

[bovril]

We really miss a Mahrez type player who can take two players out of the equation in an instant.

I dont agree with booing.

 

However fans are paying a hard earned money to watch this crap since december. Negative tactics and lacklustre displays all over the pitch and no ideas in the final 3rd boils my blood much more than letting the players know they are just not performing that is even close to acceptable.

Then they should expect dejected players.

Whether they pay or not money doesn't mean the players on the pitch are immune to pressure.

[foxes_rule1978]

Remember when we use to actually have shots? they were the days 

[jayfox26]

Feel sorry for Kelechi. Whilst hes not been great with his hold up play, he has absolutely zero support! Nor a single Leicester player within 20 yards of him everytime he gets the ball. This has got to be the last time we see Gray in a Leicester shirt, he offers absolutely nothing! 

[Nod.E]

Chilwell hasn't been embarrassing.

 

Kindest thing I can say about that half.

[trabuch]

What an insipid half of football from us.

[LcFc_Smiv]

Atleast they should come out raring to go after some Brendan cuddles at half time

[oxtonfox]

Birmingham doing a Villa on us. We don't have any answer, yet. Let's hope it's not the same result. Hope Brendan does something - we've done f. all with the ball and there's no cohesion where we need it. It's aimless and hopeful and hope rarely delivers...

[Dames]

Booing won’t work with this lot, they don’t have the mental capacity to go out and prove the crowd wrong. Time and time again they’ve gone into their shells.

 

Its a double edged sword because they’ve been flat for 3 months its difficult to create the positive atmosphere that might lift them on the pitch. 

[NorthernFox]

Dire, dull & listless. I'd like to see Barnes on please.

[RoboFox]

I don’t envy the video editor at the FA trying desperately to find some “highlights” to show at half time.

 

Minging. Yet again.

[lgfualol]

Everything really does fall apart after a year of managing our team. 

[Guest ttfn]

Siri, show me the dictionary definition of what people thought was Puel Ball:

 

76% possesion

0 shots on target

 

vs a Championship side at home.

 

Reminder that Rodgers has been here a year.

[old koppite]

Funny, there was 31000 watching on FB at one point, now down to 24000!

We don't have negative tactics, the tactics are pretty much the same as they were in the autumn - we're just not playing well. We've lost our confidence badly since December. 

[Manini]

Don’t know how many times we have to go through this with Gray. He’s never been and never will be good enough.

Tielemans and Barnes on - Gray and Albrighton off. 

433 Maddison on the wing again?

[SecretPro]

Albrighton and Gray are shite. My old man won't be happy, he thinks they are the second coming
