LCFC 0-2 Man City - Post-Match Thread

[StanSP]

Not actually that fussed about losing this one. Never do like to lose but said earlier after the Chelsea result that it's a bit more of a free hit game than ever before. Don't usually like the phrase but in this context it's true. 

 

This Man City side is just ridiculous. On and off the ball. Their antics and histrionics are fvcking shit though. 

 

Ref has had several better games no doubt! 

 

West Ham are much more winnable game! 

[Vacamion]

 

Better than us.

 

But better than everyone else, too.

 

The mediawank whenever (Man) "City" are on telly is a bit much.

 

Our next game is pretty massive.  

[Zear0]

5-4 over two-legs. Swivel. 

[trabuch]

I'm sad. But we won on aggregate.

[kingfox]

I think it’s time to face facts, that Jamie Vardy will never score a goal for Leicester ever again 

[knitro]

They are a very good team and frustrating to play against - De Bruyne really did embarrass himself with his histrionics. 

 

Could've been worse, we move on. 

[Leicester_Loyal]

Some of the reactions in the match thread were ridiculous, they're the best team in the world at the minute and are a class team. Losing Cags probably disrupted our plans and we had to use Big Dan instead, plus Ricardo and Maddison were back from injuries, Barnes is missing, Vardy is out of form etc.

 

We'd have all taken a draw before the game, the main thing is the other teams around us lose. If Liverpool and WHU fail to win, happy days.

 

PS. I hope they don't win the CL, their antics and diving was pathetic.

[TeamRocket]

Hopefully could bounce back next pl game and not let it effect us long run

[OntarioFox]

Ah well, it is what it is.

 

I think we played good stuff at times. We aren't gonna have a tougher test than that for the rest of the season, plus Chelsea's result left it as even more of a free hit.

 

We move on.

hahahahahahhaa get out

[KingsX]

Match stats ...

 

 

And here's KdB to accept his Man of the Match award ...

 

[Oxfordfox83]

Boring, dirty, diving, time wasting bastards.

 

If that’s being champions, I’m happy with third

[Pliskin]

Beaten by a much better side, stood a slim chance of getting something anyway.
 

However, to finish in the top four we can’t lose any of our next five league games. We have to win at least three and can afford a couple of draws. 

[Izzy]

No drama. Won't effect our confidence too much I wouldn't have thought.

[Swarles Barkley]

+1 GD gained on Chelsea

 

ill take it

[Guest kristianity77]

I mean, I know Man City are the better team in not going to question that but Jesus christ just what was our plan today?

 

That was embarrassing in a tactical sense and if Rodgers sent them out to do nothing but keep the score down then fair play, conceding two is half decent.  

 

We could play that game a hundred times with those tactics and we would lose 100.  I have no idea what Rodgers wanted from that.

[Fox in the North]

Out of the way and done with. Just hope Cags isn’t delayed for long. 
 

With him back along with Madders, Praet and Ricardo, there’s no reason why we can’t beat West Ham.

 

PS come on Arsenal and Wolves!

[Tielemans63]

Disappointed but all about how we react now. Credit to City, their bazillion pound team was excellent.

[Vestan Pance]

Best move of the game from us was the short corner back to Kasper. We deserved nothing got nothing.

[Gevans_97]

one of those. free hit, especially with Chelsea losing earlier. Next week is big. Thought Wes was fantastic today. What a player he’s going to be.

[Matt_Lcfc]

A top 4 finish will not be dictated by games like today. Beaten by the better side, move on and get ready for a huge game next weekend.

[sdb]

Second best, by some way.

 

Next week is the bigger game. 

 

When did KDB become a referee by the way? Would love to 'play football' against him right now 

[Corky]

They were better than us as I 90% expected. Their extra quality told.

 

Referee was dreadful and their fouling makes it difficult to get a rhythm going at times.

 

Next one is huge.

[Webbo]

Sometimes you just have to put your hands up and admit you were beaten by the better side.

[Aus Fox]

Sometimes you put your hands up and say you were beaten by the better side.

 

Having said that, they are the most dislikable side going around, the diving the cynical fouls, the carry on towards referees.

Some world class players who don’t need to be doing it.

KDB will be embarrassed when he’s shown that clip back again.
