Wonder whether any other manager would survive this form quite so easily? Brendan's reputation is saving him cause we are utterly abysmal.

Agree. 

[Babylon]

Glad we kept two DM’s on 

[hejammy]

Need a goal.... Striker on the bench.... 

[trabuch]

This is a cup match. Throw the kitchen sink at it.

Not many clubs will sack a manager when they’re 3rd in the league.

Just awful. No cohesion on the pitch. Just aimless long balls. Look devoid of ideas. Doesn’t help that we never seem to get any luck at all right now

He has to put Kelechi on surely otherwise he may as well leave the club 

He'll bring on Mendy for Vardy

[Hales]

Lampard was fuming with their first half performance so he made 3 changes. Brendan just stands there ....

[HankMarvin]

another game where you feel like the teal

Could play for 180 mins and create fook al

[FLAN]

Woeful. So many hyped players who can’t do the basics.  

[Lineker's Left Foot]

Glad I turned it off and put Paul Weller and just checked up on this occasionally 

[StanSP]

How's Kasper saved that

 

The one time we show pressure and nothing falls

 

[Tuna]

 Loftus-Cheek our best defender there!

[TheUltimateWinner]

Schmeichel deserves better 

[TazzerFox]

This is so shit.

[Monsell1976]

Eat sleep repeat, this is nothing to do with luck, or because of the break, it’s the same for every team just slow, predictable football, lacking serious urgency or composure.

 

 If we are to progress into a team challenging for Europe we need competition for vardy, and replace him season after next, get rid of surplus of just premier league/ top of championship players like gray, Albrighton etc.

 
We are desperate for quality out wide, two wingers, bench Barnes and bring him on slowly.

 

 Let’s not be fooled we are being beaten by a weakened Chelsea side not playing very well, champions league is under pressure, and these players are about to throw their early seasons hard work

Yes they would, because our owners aren’t mental.

[Blanchflower78]

Its terrifying the fall in performance, form and general quality since early December 

[Pliskin]

I’d like to sit Rodgers down and ask him how we’ve gone from beating Southampton 9-0, to whatever this is. We are ****ing shit.

There is no way we are staying there. We are playing like a bottom 4 team.

Difficult window to shop in though.

We badly needed a winger and I do not know why we didn't sign one last summer.

All down to who's really going to make a difference and just another also ran, who's available that the club is willing to sell and who would want to come. Can you name one of those?

 

Regularly scoring wingers are fairly rare and when you take into account the above, even rarer. It also depends what you expect from a winger, we're hardly a team that would attack crosses for example. We at the moment are a one trick pony, easily read, and easily defended against. Poor Vardy doesn't stand a chance. 

[Jattdogg]

...tsk, we dont care for the cup anyways....

Did you even watch the first half?  

[trabuch]

4 v 2 there. So at least we are going for it.
