Spartak Moscow (A) - Post Match

[Aus Fox]

The Poundland Eduard comment has just gone down in Foxes Talk folklore!

Ref can fvck off

[jayfox26]

Massive win. 

2 of our summer signings are top class and 2 are utter garbage. 

 

Var is not fit for purpose. 

 

We are great going forward but absolutely shocking defensively. 

[Vacamion]

 

If Daka is going to keep playing like that, it's VERY exciting for the future.

 

[FoxesWalk]

The referee and VAR… both shocking. Not good enough, this is supposed to be a major competition. Unacceptably poor.

Rodgers masterclass yet again; bringing Vestergaard and Bertrand to Moscow and 'accidentally' losing their passports. Oh, and we won. That's good too.

You can only hope.

[Shamomoa]

I'm in love with patson daka! 😍 what a guy! Should have done better defensively but Glad we held on needed that! Let's get out of this group!!!

[An Away Move]

Brilliant from Soumare and Daka. Will hopefully get the idiots off their back who think they’re rubbish. 

[bongo92]

Was the ref as bad as he sounded? i'm sensing a recurring theme when it comes to european refs and us?

[bmt]

Who said daka was crap just before he got his first on the match thread?

[Dahnsouff]

That challenge on Albrighton was stone cold red, cannot be argued with. It makes me think VAR teams just go ‘Nah,  f* k it, games over anyway’

[Vindaloo FOX]

We have scored 8 and conceded 5 in our last 2 games.

 

Bloody nuts !!

After everything that happened that game, the thing that will stick with me most is how obscenely offensively bad Vestergaard was for their 3rd - starting with the open clearance header he gave right to them at the top of the box. Wow- that dude is so bad. It’s kind of hard to comprehend. 
 

DAKAAAAAAA

Officiating was fcuking criminal.

VAR , really, absolute joke.

Made hard work of that, was the Man U game a one off.

[Guest SO1]

Daka and Soumare what a coming out party that was. Congerton deserves a trophy for that window.

Not sure if the ref or VAR but disgraceful performance, a stone wall penalty turned down amd the tackle on Albrighton at the end was one of the worst I’ve seen in a long time.

[PNM]

😂😂

[Webbo]

And they should have had 2 players sent off and a pen for us.

[trabuch]

Great result. Daka is the business. Nacho is a great strike partner. Soumare was outstanding. Mads is back.

[Farrington fox]

For me I can’t believe the naivety of Rodgers subs. He was lucky he got away with not ruining a fantastic night for Daka. If we’d have been 3 or 4 nil to the good, I would have understood taking Evans and Thomas off. To then bring Vestergaard on who is utterly useless was a massive mistake. Took the shine off what should have been a fantastic 4-2    Still, we’ve the 3 points that’s the main thing. 

[Mr Mister]

We should play all out attacking football in every game from now. If the opposition score 3, Leicester will score 4. That should be the mentally from now on. We will win many more games playing all out attacking football. Defensive football killed our chances of qualifying for the Champions League last season.

[Jakemoore]

I couldn’t watch that with my normal level of concentration as I have a job that I’d like to keep but it looked to me like we were ready to concede with every one of their attacks. Am I being harsh?
