Slavia 0-0 LCFC - Post Match Thread

[Matt]

Well that was underwhelming, poor and incredibly boring from both teams.

 

Disappointing, especially given how strong I felt we lined up.

 

Oh well, we didn't lose but learn, please learn, move on and beat the scummy Brummy inbreds next.

[oxtonfox]

A cold performance on a cold night in a cold place. A shadow that chills my view. Enough said.

Shocking pitch, shocking ref, disgusting shithousery from an abysmal Slavia side. We should destroy these at the kp and I will delighted if we do. There are certain sides you take that little bit more joy in beating. Forest, Derby, Cov, Villa, United, Slavia prague. 

their were some tackles in that match 

 

lads will be so leggy sunday. is this to many games for a squard with injuries

[Hales]

I'm so glad we have no new injuries after that rugby match!

Very frustrating. Hoped we'd wipe the floor with them, to be honest, but didn't play well at all.

 

Not an excuse, but the worst ref I've seen in a very long time. Nacho booked for nowt, and their players allowed to rugby tackle us. The diving was shameless.

 

Plus side - clean sheet and no new injuries. Hopefully, we'll be a bit wiser to their antics in the 2nd leg.

Booked for nowt? Are you sure

Were they good or were we just shite? 

 

Massive 10 days ahead now.

They weren't good, but neither were we shite imo

 

They turned it into and ugly, physical, game on a difficult pitch and threw themselves around at every opportunity like they'd been shot. It destroyed any rhythm to the game. We concentrated well to make sure we stayed in it 

[winteriscoming]

Worrying for next week. They will sit back and play on the break. Which we struggle against and can’t break side’s down. 
Frustrating seeing Utd and spurs virtually thru and can rest players. Whereas we’ve got to go full strength. 

[coolhandfox]

Good lesson in the dark arts of European football, play acting, physical, hard place to go, a lot of the players would have learn't a lot.

 

Awful pitch and poor ref.

 

I think it a decent result and hopefully no injuries

The more I see of Cags the more he looks like he’s just walked straight off the set of the Thriller video shoot 

He’s looking terribly pale. Missing the Mediterranean sun somewhat?

[Tielemans63]

Hamza looked good when he came on. 

[TeamRocket]

What a dirty team glad hamaz made the hard tackle, but do think we should have killed them off 1st half

Against the worst lot of cheeky diving fuchers I've seen in a long time, who got Real Madrid levels of hate out of me, with a ref who can't tell the difference between a rugby tackle and winning the ball...

 

I'll take 0-0 and hope we break a few legs at our place

Yeah what was up with that rugby tackle on Maddison? Commentators said he tripped? Did he ****, he was off his feet well before he collided with him.

[yorkie1999]

Half time 0-0, players all ok for villa. Decent result 

[Arkie Bennett]

Strange game, neither team ever really looked like scoring. Although they kept us quiet, Prague looked most interested in winning free kicks and playacting. Still, no more casualties, a good chance to see them off next week. 

[CosbehFox]

Czech Burnley tried every little trick on their biggest game of the season and at the end looked shattered. We’ve got them 

[Tom12345]

Meanwhile, both Man Utd and Spurs scored 4 away from home.

 

We are really too defensively minded.

We can’t rest out players regardless, we don’t have anyone to replace them with if we do 

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Biggest anti climax in a while that was. Oh well onto next week.

[foxestalkisfullofidiots]

Anyone know if you keep the same ref for both legs? Could do with a stronger ref next week.

[l444ry]

Can't complain at the result. They pressed well but hardly tested Kasper. Hopefully we'll have at least one of our regular full backs available for the second leg. Amartey and Thomas did well but our attacking style does depend on the full backs getting forward far more than they were able to. Should have enough in the tank to complete this hurdle.

[TrickyTrevLeftPeg]

They will do exactly the same the second leg in terms of screaming and being anti football.  so if you think it'll be an easy game think again

[OLD norfox]

And the winner is Marco Guida  an Italian football referee who officiates in Serie A. He has been a FIFA referee since 2014, and is ranked as a UEFA first category referee. Wikipedia , Thank you and good night. It's long since I*ve seen that kind of performance from a ref 

 

[Gevans_97]

Incredibly frustrating that the blatant cheating and play acting from the opposition hasn’t been called out by the commentators or the pundits. 

[FoxOnWheels]

Under has the tricks, pace and technique to be so effective but never gets involved enough 

[honeybradger]

We need to try and pass to vardy more, there were too many times where i was expecting tielemans or maddison to attempt a first time through ball  and instead they held onto it for too long and ended up passing it sideways. If drinkwater was on the pitch vardy wouldve had 2 against that high line.
