Roma (A) - Post Match

[glebe_sydneyfox]

Typical Mourinho defensive wall.

Was pretty shit viewing

Changes at half time gave us more impetus but end product was bang average.

What a shame we went out like that but it's been a fun journey til this point.

Refereeing was shocking but really, were we going to go through even with a neutral ref? Barely a whimper today, like most weeks. We play for all this possession but never do anything with it. Boring and pathetic.

Probably not but we would have got a penalty and hopefully gone 1-0 up so who knows, we were on top up to that point. But what came after was truly pathetic from both Leicester and the ref

[lcfcbluearmy]

If we were going to go out it had to be with a fight that was barely a wimper and typical of the way rodgers has got us playing unfortunately no effort no desire all possession no attacking threat #Puelball

[BKLFox]

Least those that travelled supporting the team unlike this bloody forum 

[Guest Lcfc82]

Absolutely pathetic, Roma won’t have had an easier night all season.

 

The same old slow turgid predictable rubbish.  I’m sick to death of this manager 

[woznotwos]

Tactically woeful leaving the players looking like they weren’t comfortable at all, time for a management shake up IMO

I know right, how dare he get Riccy P to mark Abraham at set pieces...scum bag

I thought our players battled well in a hostile away environment. But yes, getting one of our short guys to mark Abraham in a set piece - crazy.

brendan can go now

[Fox 4 Life]

This reminds me of that 0-0 Man City vs Real semi final years ago in the CL. Just didn't even try tbh

[adam]

The ref was shit.wasnt his fault thought we looked so bad though out. 

Absolute waste of time that was. Weak as piss all over the pitch. Brendan didn't have a clue as usual and still can't set the defence up. Goes on about a rebuild but would probably be cheaper just to **** him off and his miserable football. 

Didn't even have a go.

It's the end of a cycle. So many players are done that we could see manager and half the squad go.

[Pliskin]

Quite possibly the most embarrassing semi final performance in recent history. 
 

Jose had Brendan’s number before a ball was kicked tonight, and it was ****ing cringeworthy to watch. Roma are pretty shit, and yet we let them just dick us rather comfortably. 
 

No aggression, no creativity, basic mistakes and a complete lack of desire. We’ve thrown away the league all for nothing. 
 

Tonight was on Brendan, and his complete tactical naïvety, Jose will be laughing all the way to the final.

 

Brendan can piss off now, I’ve had it with him.

Match fixing. Pure and simple. Corners, throw ins, fouls and penalties going to opposite way. 

Yes - absolutely this

[TeamRocket]

Never have I been so disappointed and disgusted by a ref in my live! Yes we played poor but still the ref has been nasty today

[Bilsthorpe Blue]

All you f..ck..so calling for Rogers to go, how many moaned when the team was announced???

[Motty]

Pot a chino anyone??

[WoodyFox]

Story of our season, dominate the ball but can’t create any chances. Something has to change as this is obviously not working.

Note our players still laughing and smiling. I'd be hanging myself if I put in a performance like that.

But to be fair, BR will be telling them they did well, had most of the possession and played his game plan to perfection.

[Beechey]

Compare and contrast that to how we went out against Atletico Madrid in the CL.

[Lewis's Junior]

Timid shite. 

This season can get in the bin. 

[Joe90lcfc]

So so predictable we are, absolutely gutless performance, looked so shit going forward this is a big concern, boring, dull, and zero characters that stand up and take the game by the scruff of the neck!! We are such a pussy side a walk over!!!!

[FoxOnWheels]

We are fvcking vile this season never looked like scoring, 1 nil down 10 mins to go in a semi final throw the kitchen sink at it long balls hope something drops cause playing through them hasn’t worked

[hejammy]

No leaders. Vardy is finished in my opinion. Barnes needs to move on. Youri quite frankly can do one! The corruption was there in plain site and needs to be investigated. But the players bottled it, not BR. The players have to take the blame for that. First leg we should have won it. Toothless. Unimaginative, predictable and bottle jobs. KDH worked hard but it didn't work for him tonight. Just so annoying as they were there for the taking
