Dandy king Posted 30 April 2021 Posted 30 April 2021 Thought Dennis should have got on the pitch tonight really. Don't like how Perez is the next guy to come on. Him and maddison aren't cutting the mustard at the moment 2

melrose Posted 30 April 2021 Posted 30 April 2021 Can someone please explain to me how we can't get into the CL if we finish 4th, if the Engish teams in this seasons CL and europa league win their competitions?

I appreciate once they go down to 10 it’s just going to be 10 behind the ball and hard to break down but there was far too much sideways, backwards nonsense. When does the penny drop ‘hmmm they’re staying rigid, not committing themselves, perhaps we should stop the sideways, backwards bullshit trying to draw them out and maybe try actually taking the game to them, going forward and show some attacking intent’? At times when Southampton did attack our defence looked shaky, we looked like the team with 10 men. Once we went 1-0 down we actually decided to show some attacking intent and realised oh shit, we’ve gotta go for this in which time we were quite impressive and had enough good chances to win it. Unfortunately it just wasn’t going for us. But why it took us to go 1-0 down to stop the passive shit god only knows. This isn't true. The goal came after a 5-10 minute spell where we'd upped the tempo All my love to the binary bedshitters for whom just saying 'wasn't great, been worse' isn't an option
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 30 April 2021 Posted 30 April 2021 Wank performance Arrogant springs to mind. Expected to pass the ball around and just beat a poor ten man team. Not good enough. The circumstances of that game made any think but a win a disappointment. And it was. Poor, not one stand out performance 2
Bptiger Posted 30 April 2021 Posted 30 April 2021 Pathetic tonight , we were so slow to pass the ball around , also why the hell did we not try to take there fullbacks on , and try to open there defence up , very very poor tonight .
fuchsntf Posted 30 April 2021 Posted 30 April 2021 Tigers won..they are in the Euro-final.... If a foxes Dont get ya, we have Tigers who'll bite your head off.... Double Leicester cup win... 1
hejammy Posted 30 April 2021 Posted 30 April 2021 1 hour ago, Clever Fox said: As DayDay said. It's what O'neill an other managers done all the time pushing Walshie or Elliott up front to rescue games or even get the winner. Brendan has always said he try's to win every game. How he gets the result doesn't matter at the end of the day. Sometimes you have to roll the dice a little. We don't win balls in the box simply because we don't have anyone in there who can. By putting someone up top who's good at winning the ball gives us a better chance of doing so. Southampton are not very good in the air at the back without Vestagarde. If you continue to do the same your likely to get the same result as it proved. How many goals have we scored from corners and set pieces when Evans, Cags and Fofana have gone up for them? They're strengths are clearly not attacking headers. Gone are the days of putting Walshy upfront. If we started playing hoofball at 80 mins I guarantee BR would have got a lot more stick and there is no suggestion that the result would have been any different.
ARM1968 Posted 1 May 2021 Posted 1 May 2021 And that, folks, is the Premier League. As I keep saying, along with many others, no easy games. We really didn’t play with enough speed, guile or determination. If you don’t turn up in this league you get what you deserve, usually. Although peak Vardy wins that for us. This isn’t peak Vardy.
Deeg67 Posted 1 May 2021 Posted 1 May 2021 Abysmal. Atrocious. Abhorrent. Choose your alphabet, they all apply. Starting with 5 at the back was wrong, but as usual Rodgers waited way too long to make a change. His substitutions were baffling, and leaving one unused is unforgivable. Would have been a perfect opportunity to get Under onto the pitch, or Praet for Ndidi with about half an hour to go. Just a disaster from the manager on down. 2

gurru991 Posted 1 May 2021 Posted 1 May 2021 (edited) VonnegutBusy Today at 3:50 PM New Add bookmark #591 The Leicester bottlejob has begun. They still have United, Chelsea and us to play in their last 4. If we win our 5 we overtake them. From the "Fighting Cock". Pretty rich when Spurs are calling us a bottle job !

AyewJoking Posted 1 May 2021 Posted 1 May 2021 Recorded the game to watch after work. First half was boring but you have to be patient sometimes. Turned off after Southampton goal i just don't want to watch this crap. So a point better than no points but 2 points dropped and the bank Holiday weekends on a downer before its begun.
kiwiturk Posted 1 May 2021 Posted 1 May 2021 Cengo may not be in LCFC's future plan but he is still employed by the Foxes. I thought he could have add an additional flair or attacking option for the team today. Sharky, Perez, Madders and Youri were too predictable and displaying lack of consistency today. I totally understand that BR clearly doesn't fancy Under but good football manager must explore every single avenue for the greater good. 1
WigstonWanderer Posted 1 May 2021 Posted 1 May 2021 (edited) Credit to Southampton for digging their heels in. Bit of a tired, sloppy display for the most part, with some decent chances going begging towards the end. Apart from Jonny Evans I’m not sure anyone had a very good game. Ah well, can’t win them all. Beat Newcastle, and 10 points from 12 would be a good return. The chasing group will no doubt have their own banana skins, most have already had a few. Edited 1 May 2021 by WigstonWanderer 1
Le Renard Posted 1 May 2021 Posted 1 May 2021 Too many players were off their game last night and a few seemed to forget how to control and pass a ball, but 4 games in 13 days hasn't helped. Klopp would have been ranting by now, but credit to Rodgers, he doesn't moan and just gets on with it!
teblin Posted 1 May 2021 Posted 1 May 2021 We will win one of those last 3 at least. We didn’t look sharpe, maybe it was tiredness. people drive me crazy on this forum with the “pathetic, terrible etc..,” can’t wait to have a moan. It was poor but not as bad as some are making out. We are 3rd with 4 games to go. By the end of the weekend we will be at least 5 points clear of 5th. The draw could still be a very big point. 3
Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 1 May 2021 Posted 1 May 2021 Plenty of knees definitely jerking here. Wait to see how the weekend results pan out and then decide if it’s been a complete disaster. Even if our rivals below us all win (which I doubt) it’ll still be in our own hands. Its really disappointing but that’s the highs and lows of football. I reckon 4 more points should be enough to finish 4th. 3

foxfanazer Posted 1 May 2021 Posted 1 May 2021 Poor performance and result in the end. Not the end of the world but we must beat Newcastle next week else I think we'll blow it. Praying we don't put in a performance like that in the cup final
Popular Post harpendenfox Posted 1 May 2021 Popular Post Posted 1 May 2021 I never understand when people say we’ve been arrogant or lazy. Sure we were certainly not at our best, but I didn’t see any hint of arrogance, or anyone wandering around. Yes we lacked some zip, but we had more than enough chances to win. Sadly our legend of a striker seems to have lost his ability to finish, and that’s hurting us. It’s not for lack of effort or determination though 4 1
