Leicester must be fairly dissatisfied that Benko is getting no game time

 

a real shame for him and us. He’ll be gone in the summer. 
 

this makes me sad

Thats what, 6 managers since we've bought him that don't fancy him enough to play him... Puel, Rodgers, Lennon, and the managers of Bristol, Cardiff and OHL.

1-0 down

It isn’t that deep mate

Romo had another brain fart for that pen. No need for him to come for it.

Plays the ball though, never a pen.

If I was being generous I'd say he touched the ball simultaneously with going through the player. It was a pen all day long.

When I see Bristol, Sheffield etc I call it out because it’s weird 👍  

[Bonanza]

Eppiah's coming on

[Webbo]

Oh dear. 

[Bonanza]

3-0 loss.

 

The lads gave it their all, but Brugge is just too strong for the Belgian League right now.

[Webbo]

I know Bruge are top of the league but that was a really poor display. Did Mingolet make a single save? Just to easy for them. 

[sacreblueits442]

...they did not seem to believe in what they were doing on the pitch!!!

Totally intimidated out there.

[KlaaZ]

Think we did okay until the penalty to be honest. You guys may be expecting a little too much. This is a side that's now 15 points ahead of the nearest team.

It's all about quality and talent, mate. Because they are so good, they make it look easy...

Teams 1,2,3 and 4 compete in the Champions group, while teams 5, 6, 7 and 8 compete in Playoff 2

I was going to say playoff 2 is very doable but I see you're only 3 points off 4th. Could still make it.

Agreed.

 

It has been very strange season so far with the big teams (except Club Brugge) dropping a lot of points. Normally teams like Anderlecht, Brugge, Standard, Gent and Genk are almost guaranteed to finish in the top 5, but I wouldn't be surprised if at least one of them doesn't even make the top 8 this year.
