The Shark Posted 8 May 2022 Share Posted 8 May 2022 He’s been a big earner since winning title and is definitely not value for money his wages could be spent on getting other players in 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One things for sure, Rodgers hasn't got the balls to stand up to Kasper. Kasper will decide when he plays. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raj Posted 8 May 2022 Share Posted 8 May 2022 (edited) Weve tried many personnel in defence. We have tried different formations of defence, We are still inept at defending. The only ever present player has been Kasper. Just saying. Edited 8 May 2022 by Raj 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cropstonfox Posted 8 May 2022 Share Posted 8 May 2022 Time to say thanks but move on. No presence or organisation at corners. Need a good big dominant keeper. He's cost us at least 9 goals this season 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Countryfox Posted 8 May 2022 Share Posted 8 May 2022 Get someone else in now .. doesn’t command his box and is a big part of our corners problem .. says he wants European football .. we’ll go and find it mate ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOXYTALK Posted 8 May 2022 Share Posted 8 May 2022 He should have commanded his box for the Roma goal on Thursday as well. That's 2x games he's cost over the last week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanSP Posted 8 May 2022 Share Posted 8 May 2022 He's not the sole reason we're bad at corners (literally no-one fancies attacking the ball. They're shit scared for whatever reason, both attacking and defending). But when he's called upon to deal with it, he gets a bit flappy and panicked. A few years back that header from the corner gets held or parried over the bar. Now it's palmed back into danger. He nearly even fvcked up the simple save from Doucoure (?) after it was squared from Gray. Nearly knocked it in to his own net. I'm wondering if he knows where his future lies beyond the end of this season and is now just seeing it out in casual fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Kasper was a main factor in us conceding from corners then it would have been happening for the past decade, but it hasn't. I haven't seen the goal back yet but from where I sit, Richarlison looked completely free. At Roma on Thursday we had Ricardo on Abraham. I don't think the players are aggressive enough to stop opposition players attacking the ball but I also think they're being let down by poor management of defending set pieces. I heard Rodgers say on the radio that they don't "have time" to physically address corners, wtf does that mean, what do they do in training man. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think the corner weakness has ever been exploited like it has this season, it’s the opposition game plan easiest way to score. Sure it would help with defenders that can head the ball, but then it could be argued in previous seasons they were also doing that ok. I would imagine there is a fair amount of dread by players when we concede corners. Having confidence in your keeper to command his 6 yard box would go along way into instilling that. Yes, his a good shot stopper but so are most premier league keepers on their day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Hammo Posted 8 May 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 8 May 2022 Schmeichel is deserving of eternal love from Leicester supporters for his achievements with the club, but even his most ardent supporters cannot deny that, for all his world-class shot-stopping, he has for some time been a liability at corners. It wasn’t always the case, but it has become more and more noticeable how ill at ease - I’d even go as far as to say fearful - he has become when the chance is there for him to claim the ball in his six yard box at corners. And of course every opposition manager now knows it. Different tactics and defenders have been used to try and resolve our ‘corner issue’ all season. But the one common denominator is Kasper. And that’s a fact. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In previous seasons we had better headers. Even the title winning side was fairly small, but we didn't concede from corners like we do now, but we had Huth and Morgan then who were both commanding in the air. I agree goalkeepers install confidence collecting balls, look how good Lloris was doing it yesterday for Spurs at Anfield, but I don't think it's the sole reason otherwise, as I said, we'd have been like this every season Kasper was here.

You can get worse at something over time, you know, and It looks like Kasper has developed a genuine phobia at corners - like a golfer getting the putting ‘yips’. It can happen. Maybe someone on here can recall a particular incident when he went to claim the ball, flapped, missed and conceded - and which might have adversely affected his thinking and confidence ever since… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 8 May 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 8 May 2022 He's an absolute hero and his save in May should be spoken about as much as Youri's winner but he has too much sway in the dressing room and has had his feet under the table for far too long. Too chummy with the owners and (if we're being brutally honest) a good stone or two overweight. An exceptional shot stopper but you have to be more than that as a goalkeeper in 2022. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tetly Posted 8 May 2022 Share Posted 8 May 2022 Looks like it’s getting to that time when he needs moving on. He has been great for us but has obvious flaws in his game that are becoming costly. In his case it’s not lack of effort more time catching up with him. It feels right for him to leave now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosbehFox Posted 8 May 2022 Share Posted 8 May 2022 He’s been poor at corners for a while. Burnley used to literally just aim for him because they got beat him with the height difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdb Posted 8 May 2022 Share Posted 8 May 2022 Best keeper I've seen at Leicester by a million miles. But one huge flaw and teams are taking the piss with it. If we can't fix the set piece situation another way, we will simply have to look elsewhere. He's clearly never going to change his strategy of staying glued to his line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
