Good performance and decent win. Could and should have been 6 or 7 but for some decent goalkeeping and better decision making in good areas but we looked bright going forward. KDH was class. 
 

only blot was conceding a goal which was completely avoidable. We are too passive defensively we don’t get into the faces of the opposition attackers enough, there is little aggression in our defending and it all looks too nice and polite and I think it is this that has slowly seen the number of goals conceded and chances created against us increase throughout Rodgers tenure.  Too much focus on defenders being comfortable in possession and not enough on focus on them being aggressive & horrible out of possession. We have become a soft touch and that is why I think it is most notable the drop off in form it has had on players such as Cags and Wilf who thrive on being aggressive in their play.

Lovely gesture by Top, but please stop this awful trend of these signs at games!!!

The lad would be a hero on here if it was a Rodgers out sign

Should have won by about 8.

Goid job Rangers were like a league 2 team.

What was going on with the phone lights?

And did someone  really run onto the pitch?

I took the result with a pinch of salt. Thought we were very slow and passive first half. Defence and midfield was ropey to say the least. Stepped it up 2nd half and actually put in the workrate required of a professional team. Credit to the attacking play.

 

I think a half decent team would have really troubled us first half. Do I think Brendan is stepping in the right direction....not at the min.

Full credit by Leicestershire police for no doubt charging an absolute fortune to have an over reaction to the most non offensive European supporters we’ve ever hosted. 
 

They were shambles for Napoli and Legia. So went waaayyyy over the top last night to protect themselves.

I thought Vest 'n' pants made 3 or 4 long passes that were superb last night.  I think this partly why Rodgers wanted him, but due to the high intensity of the prem he's closed down to quickly.

Quite an achievement for them to batter Borussia Dortmund playing like that though.

They’ve done it for every game in Europe. The idea is to over resource it every game to kind of set a precedent. 
 

Issue with the Napoli and Warsaw games were that if the police would have put their helmets on from the off, (the big riot ones) it apparently tells their ultras they’re ready to fight, so they were stuck between a rock and a hard place then. 

 

It’s been a bit of trail and error unfortunately, it’s not like we’re used to hosting these types of teams.

Technical point.  This is not the BVB Fans Forum.

Napoli and Legia had no organised walk from High Street to the stadium. They closed off numerous roads last night for that. 
 

They were approx fifteen police vans at the back of Kop yesterday.  Not seen them lined up like that for a while. 
 

They have zero understanding of European football/clearly don’t consult their European or fellow domestic peers (sure plenty of other police forces could vouch for Napoli in England and Legia in Glasgow)

Anyone else think the policing was over the top last night? 

 

How many officers were out and 8 horses? 8 why the **** are we having 8 horses at home to Randers?
