Leeds 1-1 LCFC - Post Match Thread

[HybridFox]

Not the worst we've played this season. Not the best. Point probably about right. Best not to look at the table though

Woah don't hold Rodgers to such high standards 

Just a comparison!

Classic midtable fodder that and that is what we are now under this regime. For those that can tolerate that, crack on. For those that have had a gutful, get used to it as it will take a year of this before anything is done about it. 

 

I didn't watch the game and feel surprisingly zen. Pleased to see Harvey scored and at least we only conceded one. Now to the best part of the season for me, the international break where I can stop HATING for a few weeks and enjoy pottering about undistracted.

 

 

You didn't watch the game? As a neutral, it was very entertaining. You could and should have won it.

That……. Was dreadful. AGAIN! Praying Rodgers goes to Man Utd as im

now fully convinced he’s done here. The team have gone stale and we have no identity.

True but we come up against that Leeds team this time last season and we win by 3/4. 

True enough too.

Isn´t there an international (boring) break now? Might give us a chance to regroup although a lot of players are away.

That's what some were saying the last there was a international break.... regroup etc etc..

Pathetic. Who do we get in that better than him right now? 

 

Wishing him to go is just stupid.

And we did for the Man Utd game and won 3 games in a row. 

 

The regroup worked. Literally no denying it didn't. 

[Harry5]

Daka can play out wide. That should have been the sub if Barnes was injured. Amarty coming on instead was accepting of a point

 

[EnderbyFox]

It's all just very "Meh" and has been for a long time now. 

 

Aside from the game against United, I can't think of any other games this season when I've thought we've played as well as we did 12x months ago. So far below that standard atm. 

 

We've stagnated and I have no idea why, at first I thought it was injuries, but now we are only Fofana & Justin away from being fully fit that excuse doesn't wash any more?

Mid table and a League Cup win id more than take right now

Too right. I’d like to add my post wasn’t adding to the tirade. We are where we are, no point getting wound up about it. The club was here yesterday, it’s here today and it’ll be here tomorrow. What will be will be. 

[matty98]

It's an okay result but it's just soooo boring. It's genuinely no better than what Puel was serving up. I think Rodgers needs to take a look at how we played early on under him and try to replicate that.

Yep, they look like a set of players the manager has lost, not in the sense of they don’t like him etc. More in the sense I think perhaps the message is becoming repetitive and the same issues clearly never get solved. You can start to lose people’s attention can’t you, even if they very much like you. 
 

I don’t know, it’s all I can think of as it’s been nearly a year of this now. 

This is the issue IMO. It's all gotten stale.

 

[RowlattsFox]

Whatever we do we can't get the balance right. For me Vardy needs a partner, or someone very close who can receive the ball to feet. Back 5 brings its own problems but it's the only way we look like fearing anything.

That’s probably a bit harsh, as us failing the last two years to get top 4 will have dented belief and spirits. But then he oversaw the collapse.

 

I dunno, I’m just bloody bored watching us again now.

Going to run out of these. How many breaks do we need so we can regroup?  It’s just a shit show from front to back. They ALL have to own their part in this - but Rodgers is the manager and needs to at least attempt to earn some of his staggering wages. 

[fuchsntf]

Team selection was a right call

Amartey call was the right one...

He puts in a match saving interception

Nothing against Maddison, KDH calls.

Though I just might have tried Daka/Nacho for one of them.

 

We are looking at our team ( again), 

Where star players are not performing.

Rodgers put the attacking names on the sheet..

It's one game, I would go again injuries

Permitting..maybe Nacho for Lookman.

Soumare work in progress..

Tielemans around the field ( without injury) as still been labourous in most games, great touches, but not taking hold of the game.

I want in January us to buy a real bastard, with strong mental & game skills..

[tickler28]

Happy with a point....we didn't deserve any more nor did Leeds. Tough playing Leeds in that mood...like terriers on acid all over the pitch...was only a matter of time before someone got injured. Didn't utilise Vardy st all and felt tactically going forwards we were poor. Same points as Everton....1 behind Spurs and 2 behind Utd....we are exactly where we deserve to be in the league after 11 games.

Still mental that we are only 2 points off 6th...

 

and only Wolves in a better run of form than us (outside the top 4, past 4 games )

Absolutely right. Who are these managers that are better than Rodgers and willing to come to leicester?

We’re bang average and have been all season

 

Does feel like we’ve regressed to the level we were under Puel before Rodgers came in.

 

Owners will pull the plug if we aren’t doing much better after the international break

If the owners aren't happy, they are smart they, may wait for an approach elsewhere to get paid, as opposed to have to pay off Rogers, in spite of what happens between now and xmas, I'd expect Rogers to be in demand by 2-3 other clubs by that time.

Stan, we did win 3 games. However, we’ve also continued to look below par on every bar the United one since that break. If you hadn’t watched Leeds this season, there were periods in this game where you’d think they were an all conquering title contender. Same applies to the games against Brighton, Brentford and Palace. We are not improving.

[Hammo]

Let's be honest, Leeds were much the better, hungrier and more committed team. We were lucky that they butchered so many chances because as ever our defence was a complete mess. Every time they got a corner, I feared the worst, and as for constantly giving the ball away with our passes out from the back, Jesus!

 

Ricardo and Soyuncu are miles away from their best form. Tielemans had a terrible afternoon. Lookman not much better. Soumare had one good game at Spartak but has been poor in all the others - unsure what he contributes. As for the manager, he is just not getting the best out of the team - looks like he is scrabbling around without a clear, cohesive plan.

 

The positives? Barnes' goal. A point. Wilf (we'd have lost without him). Maddison's skill on the ball is coming to the fore again.

 

 

[lgfualol]

Haha I thought we were shit but at least didnt spend all game kicking it backwards, I was actually entertained. Point is fair.
