peterborofox 1,427 Posted 27 September Report Share Posted 27 September Absolutely superb. I've been super critical of Rodgers tactics in the big games. And up until we scored i thought we had been set up to contain, which is understandable but they've not been good at the back for a while so I thought we could exploit them. And we did. Fair play to the manager and players. Vardy will get motm for the goals and winning the pens. But so many top performers today. Justin started a bit slow again for me but did really well by the end. Amartey very solid considering time out. And Mendy again another 7/10 steady performance. He's very underrated. Just need to tighten up the set piece defending, but otherwise what a start to the season 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
North Leeds Fox 484 Posted 27 September Report Share Posted 27 September All of the team were fantastic. Special shout out to amartey and mendy. Never thought either would play for us again prior to this season and they were brilliant. What a win 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ted Maul 4,023 Posted 27 September Report Share Posted 27 September Class. Looked like it was going to be a long afternoon for half an hour but we were brilliant when we started getting at their defence. Amartey and Mendy showing they are able to step up in games like that is a massive bonus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post CloudFox 908 Posted 27 September Popular Post Report Share Posted 27 September Great interview from Brendan there. Really honest and quite humble. Accepts it's taken him his whole career to accept playing like that, and decided he needed to 'find another way' while still being attacking. Very revealing and incredibly positive. Our team - manager included - are growing and learning together 👏 8 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Clever Fox 1,303 Posted 27 September Report Share Posted 27 September I thought Amartey was excellent also after being out for so long. I loved the way he took control of the center of defensive when Evans went off. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raw Dykes 3,334 Posted 27 September Report Share Posted 27 September I didn't have high hopes for this one. Was just hoping not to get battered. Wow. What a result. So many great performances, and that's without Wilf, Ricardo or Under, and whoever we sign over the next 8 days. We've had an abysmal record against the big 6 under Brendan until today. What a way to end that! Hopefully, we've broken that mental duck and approach these games with more belief in future. A perfect start to the season. Really thought we'd struggle at first. Feels like post-Deeney-Day again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Leicester_Loyal 3,567 Posted 27 September Report Share Posted 27 September With Mendy coming back and looking good it's like having a new signing. Throw in Amartey (early days for him though) and it means our bench looks a lot stronger than it was just a few weeks ago. Maddison, Perez, Albrighton, Fuchs, Choudhury, Iheanacho and Ward is pretty good. Once we get Ricardo back, another CB and Under into the matchday squad, we're going to look very strong, I can't wait. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

foxes_rule1978 3,040 Posted 27 September Report Share Posted 27 September I know it is only 3 games in but the way we are pressing and playing is frightening, we will challenge at this rate. The midfield with the likes of tielemans praet maddison.. is crazy.. tielemans is the player we bought so much better than last season Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post volpeazzurro 3,125 Posted 27 September Popular Post Report Share Posted 27 September Wow, heard Brenda's post match interview? Fair play to him, honesty, no blarney and went up so much in my estimation. Stated that it's taken him 14yrs to play such a system as he always likes to be positive but realised he had to change things including himself to win games. What an honest and great thing to hear. Must have really wrankled with him what happened last year and has been thinking about it since. I formally take my hat off too him. Brilliant tactics today! 30 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
