Webbo Posted 19 July 2020 Share Posted 19 July 2020 Do we really want to risk Wes for the full 90 minutes? If we take Bennett off its Darnell Johnson if there's any injuries. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post egg_fried_rice Posted 19 July 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 19 July 2020 Well, we're unlucky to be 3 goals down, but think we used up a bit of grit and fight in our last game. Our side does look injury ravaged at the moment and shows our complete lack of strength in depth. Thomas and Bennett at fault for the goals. I can excuse a young man making his second senior start, but an experienced player like Bennett should have no excuse. He's not the standard we need and we can do better, 5m or not. We need to not concede any more and try and nick a goal or two second half for goal difference if we're still bothered about champions league, but the game is gone. Personally, I'm not feeling too bothered about today's game - I'm happy with Europa, feel it's about what we deserve this season, and reckon we could actually go far in that competition, but can really understand the frustration that we've thrown away such a commanding position. We need to make lots of signings when the window opens. Might stick on an episode of mr robot for something slightly more uplifting. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two banks of four with Bennett tucking in and Justin slotting back when we're defending and having Ayoze/Iheanacho and Vardy up central. The key is having the midfield stay close to the defense. The midfield and Ndidi in particular have been nowhere near to stop either counter and you just don't want Kane, Son, Moura and Lo Celso running at that defense. We're practically begging to be punished. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really that simple. Two of their three goals started when our back three were in their half.... When you know your defenders are slow they have to be deep enough to stop them getting behind you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaijaFox Posted 19 July 2020 Share Posted 19 July 2020 Tielemans have played well, but we need him to get his CKs to clear the first defender. It’s giving them the springboard for their counters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justfoxes Posted 19 July 2020 Share Posted 19 July 2020 It’s not over till the fat lady sings and she’s only just gargling at the minute we can only hope she chokes on it in the 2nd half with a spud capitulation and four goals for us ?😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHDrive Posted 19 July 2020 Share Posted 19 July 2020 For Europe league we need to strip out the dead wood + those on loan and sign a minimum of 6-8 players with quality. End of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyshireFox Posted 19 July 2020 Share Posted 19 July 2020 Just like last years game, they take their chances and we don’t. Bennett for as okay as he was on Thursday has been awful. Change to a four at half time and get him off! Take one of our chances at 1-0, it’s a different game, but we have shot ourselves in the foot, all be it a cobbled together defence 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine a supporter of another wishing a career ending injury on one of our players. You're an embarrassment. I really wouldn’t care. I’m frustrated and he’s irritating.

Fox92 Posted 19 July 2020 Share Posted 19 July 2020 Thomas should do better for 2nd and 3rd though. Even though it’s a shit corner for the 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollyfox Posted 19 July 2020 Share Posted 19 July 2020 Unlucky with the 1st goal and having 4 key 1st team players out for whatever reason has done us. Superb finishes from Kane and overall we've created some good openings but not as ruthless as them. Game over and proper shit for our goal difference, so the Utd game won't matter even if we beat them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_up_north Posted 19 July 2020 Share Posted 19 July 2020 Do we have any decent younger CBs we can try next game? Free hit now, I suppose. Martial will rip this defence apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pliskin Posted 19 July 2020 Share Posted 19 July 2020 1 minute ago, hebangsthedrums said: Yes it is. We were always vulnerable on the counter with this setup. Whats also on Rodgers is the disgraceful form since turn of the year - he took the plaudits prior, so should be taking the criticism now. Absolutely livid with today, but its mainly because we should have been home and dry for CL weeks ago. It’s not Rodgers fault today is it really? its our horrible injury list, and that stupid twat of a defender who got himself banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hejammy Posted 19 July 2020 Share Posted 19 July 2020 1 minute ago, when_you're_smiling said: We’ve been ok going forward and Pérez has been good. Barnes infuriating given he does so well to get in the positions he does. That defence is mid-table Champ level though, and there’s nothing at the moment we can. Do about it. We've been OK until the final ball. Same old same old since January. Nothing has changed. Barnes is simply not good enough and perhaps needs another loan. Only players that have some credibility from that is Perez and Thomas. Everyone else has given up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
