It's strange because I look at our team and it literally can't be worse than that Blackburn team in terms of talent, so it must be down to coaching. Same as the end of last season at times. 

 

Its really concerning for this season coming up

Shhhhhh mate you ain't allowed to say things like that around here. It was only the I juries that cost us last season. Oh and we're only Leicester anyway so top 4 was beyond us

Dewsbury-Hall would be perfect back up for Youri this season.

I think Tavares is more talented but yeah KDH has done well this pre season

It definitely is true. His corners are typically very poor

Statistically one of the best in the country. Creates no end of chances from corners.

Hmmm, I genuinely don't see how we turn around our fortunes from the restart. Don't feel like this team currently inspire any confidence in fans or themselves as players

That's how poorly I rated Chilwell, he was a disaster waiting to happen at the back and mediocre going forward. So far Thomas has shown his passing and crossing has technique and his defending has been poor like Chilwell. Thomas would benefit from a full season in the Championship but we likely need him around the first team squad competing in Europe, 2 domestic cups and the Prem.

But Chilwell will be playing in the champions league and in the European championships this season, and you say  a loan to the championship for Thomas? Can Thomas be better long term? Possibly, now? No

Where is Sidnei Tavares? 

 

I'd like to see him in the team. Is he injured? There's some absolute lumps out there today 

Apparently he's gone travelling with Benkovic!

It was dire last week.  Worse this week.

 

 

FFS we had maybe 2 players playing who will play next week - it was mainly a youth team game. Embarrassing comment again!

Summary...

 

Positives

Amartey just delivered the greatest resurrection since Jesus

Dewsbury-Hall deserves to be in the first team

 

Negatives

Our wingers are still shit

Luke Thomas may actually not be ready :mellow:

Any little enthusiasm I have is draining away each time I watch us. A friendly, missing loads of players, youngsters who will never play competitive football again for us so I should just move on and look forward to action starting but I can't do it. 

 

Any success for us relies on Maddison and Tielemans having good seasons. Only way I can see us creating anything. So flat it's unreal and the lack of crowds don't help.

Last time there was this much doom and gloom in preseason IIRC was 2013. Followed by a meltdown on the matchday thread when Pearson started Drinkwater and Vardy.

 

For that reason, I'm going to take all these over-reactions as a good sign.
