Arsenal 2-0 LCFC - Post Match Thread

[Mike Oxlong]

That performance was like diarrhoea. Lacked substance. 

[Fazzer 7]

Really need to beat Brentford 

[TMELcfc]

Just bored of them, them as in the players and manager... Either Rodgers goes in the summer, or loads of players do. 

[turlo]

shit performance overall and gifted them two goals. 

[eastendfox]

Players needed a rest, we gave it a go for a time, but never really looked like scoring. Move on.

Both goals are own fault rather than Arsenal earning them

I don't think they created a clear chance. Couple of scrambles and blocks and a xhaka 40 yard joke of a shot. 

[Dandy king]

Game over at about 55-60 mins, we clearly have eyes on Thursday. I agree as well, normally losing to arsenal would really piss me off, but it's just one of those things. Roll on the mighty conference league !

[Tielemans63]

Gunnersaurus could have come on and held his own in that second half. We offered **** all.

A defeat against the most in form team in the league. Little to take from that apart from the last 15 mins of the first half. Onto Thursday. 

It’s indicative of just what a crap season this is when we’re pinning our hopes on the Europa Conference League

Today showed just how we miss Vardy. We were never going to get in behind their defence with either Iheanacho or Daka. Neither striker is in the same ball-park as Vardy. 

[deejdeej]

We're just so boring when we play like that which is far too often. Feel for the fans that travelled.

[Hilton Fox]

Didn't look 100%, Thursday took it out of a few players (Albrighton, KDH).

 

Arsenal played well and everything clicked.

 

Move on, big game on Thursday and then drab performance against Brentford at home.

 

Weeks rest then smash Man U.

[LestaAl]

We missed Jamie… amongst a few others probably.

[lozzyblue fox]

If we win on thurs then once again we will have to play on consecrative Thursdays.

When do we catch up with our games in hand.

More injuries, players tiring quickly.

If you think we were bad today we have much worse performances coming up.

 

[Guest Lcfc82]

I’m not too bothered really, didn’t expect anything from the game. Our league season has been over for a while now.

 

The VAR decision killed us off, genuinely don’t think it would of been checked if it was the other way round.

 

Forget about it and move onto Thursday, that’s our priority.

[Fox92]

Shit performance, shit game.

Summed the season up.

Could have tried something different too rather than the same subs all the time, and persisting with 1 up front, pointless.

[Izzy]

Feel sorry for the blue army who travelled down there today. Probably spent the best part of £100 each to see a game we had no real intention of winning.

[mozartfox]

So how many times have we been sawn off by VAR this season.  Wolves, Brighton, West Ham, Arsenal......?

Exactly. To be honest we looked jaded. Hardly surprising given the adrenaline expended less than three days before. Could have played Perez and lookman and Justin from the start but would it have made any difference. Manager will take blame either way. Should have done better for the corner that was key part of the match. I though lt we came back well second half and could have gone in level but we weren’t quite on it. Second half disappointing. We didn’t have that togetherness or extra yard in our legs.  Cags handball was regrettable. Arsenal and their fans really are horrid. Glad I was born in Leicester. 

[Chrysalis]

Were poor, another corner conceded.

 

VAR inconsistent again, when we dont get handball decisions its because VAR has to be obvious error, yet for a big team they check again and again meaning its not obvious and they get the decision.

 

No issue with us prioritising the cup game.

Equally thought we won’t be playing the form team of the league who have no midweek games

In fairness it was a penalty.   Why don't we get to the balm first?

[jmono84]

Arsenal just sat deep and went direct whilst we’re trying to press but all we’re doing is creating massive spaces for them. BR needs to be more switched and play that game with a hard to beat mentality. At times they were walking through because of all the space they had.

 

Arsenal are playing safe effective football and it’s working. BR is trying to play like Liverpool with a tired squad with loads of players missing.

[Dames]

Bad performance that will look worse if we don’t progress on Thursday. This game was essentially thrown in favour of it.

 

Lose on Thurs and to be honest there is no reason to keep Rodgers on.

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

Eminently forgettable and mediocre. Sadly I suspect that will be a microcosm of our season as I don't see us winning the European Vanarama Paints Englebert Strauss Conference bowl. 

[mozartfox]

Just showed it again on Malaysian TV and Partey who was closest did not appeal!!
