Bore off. 

Righto. 

[reynard]

is anyone really surprised by this anymore?

[sishades]

We look clueless

[HoChiMinhFOX]

Can we just make simple passes ffs. It shouldn't be this difficult!

[StanSP]

Defence have absolutely no outlet to the midfield. 

 

And when midfield do get it, they're pressed so quickly they lose it.

 

Shoddy.

Soumare scares the shit out of me

Annoys me how he just runs off afterwards. Instead or trying to make up for his error 

[yorkie1999]

10 passes at the back, schmichal 30 yard skimmed pass to one of their midfielders. How many times is this going to happen

We haven’t pressed (other than Utd at home) for ages under Rodgers. It’s his instruction 

Contain and control is back in business. Was only a matter of time.

The hang over continues, what’s the answer ? Truthfully I haven’t got a clue

Any team that high presses against us we struggle with. Its that's simple. Why we can't work this out I don't know. 

It’s not like we have players in Vardy, Daka etc that we could utilise as counter attacking options with direct passing against said high press.

[Finnegan]

I'd actually pay premium rates for a subscription service that had Ally Mccoist and Jon Champion doing every Leicester game and any other match I fancy watching. 

[Milo]

This is shocking.
 

Who’s up for a bit of post-match Brendan Bingo..? 
 

“Outstanding effort”

”Controlled the ball”

”Honest group of players” 

 

🙄

So slow my grand mother moves faster and she’s dead

[foxfanazer]

Same old same old.  Mistakes all over the pitch, no player looking remotely motivated and already a goal down. But nobody's accountable

[dayday]

All over the place at the moment, but we will win 

[Lesterlad]

This is painful to watch

[lgfualol]

All this talk of Soumare, Ndidi has been just as useless and cant pass a ****ing ball. This is like the Mendy Ndidi days.

 

Come back Tieleman

[Flappit]

OK. We just had a sequence of 12 passes in a row. None of the passes made it out of our defensive third, the 11th pass was to Soyuncu in the left back position and the 12th was back to Schmeichel. He then kicked a lofted aimless pass to Southampton. What was the fecking point of all that? We may as well have punted it upfield in the first place. Twunts. 

[Bryn]

Really haven’t been happy with Ndidi for a long time now.

[TrickyTrevLeftPeg]

We have no idea how to beat a team that presses us.

 

Soumare is not up to it. Doesn't show enough and not alert. Just far too lazy 

 

 

[The Horse's Mouth]

Would it hurt to just give KDH a go?

[Tanya]

Soumare's slow-motion trundling around the pitch makes me rage. What does he bring? Extra defensive solidarity? Clearly not. What am I missing?

[weller54]

What is Soumare exactly (apart from shit of course)?..

He just ambles about.

Ditto Lookman. Injuries and budget mean we haven’t really got many better options, though. 😞

What about Bertrand who we spent a load of wages on. Another crap signing by Rodgers 

[kyleolly]

Man city and Liverpool away at the end of the month that will be embarrassing with these spineless pricks hard to believe that once upon a time under Brendans tenure we were the best side away from home in the league
