When we’re bad we are absolutely terrible, no fight, desire, spirt or idea, appalling. 

This sums up Rodgers tenure. 
6 clean sheets, followed by this abysmal performance. 
We can look great or totally awful in equal measure. I’ve never been so confused watching Leicester as I have under Rodgers.

Fair enough, I had us to lose today (1-2 in the pre match thread), but God knows how we go from looking so assured to so frail from one week to the next. We are the archetypal Jackyll and Hyde team.

And we have no leader STILL on the pitch. This has been apparent throughout his reign at the club. When Big Dan shits himself, or Soumare doesn’t track back, or Daka falls over for the tenth time, there’s no-one giving them a kick up the arse. You can’t do that every time from the sidelines. We are just too nice.

Newcastle bullied Leicester today and won just about every second ball.

Wow, did not realise somebody had uploaded the match highlights of the Leicester City portion of the match to Youtube that quickly...

Soumare is absolutely dreadful. Why on Earth Rodgers persists when we’ve got Wilf is on the bench is criminal. Appreciate Wilf hasn’t been great, but Soumare offers nothing, absolutely nothing…..

I'd have argued that he was starting to show some good performances before the World Cup, but today was worse than anything we've seen even during our awful start to the season.

 

Wilf walks back into that line-up now. Him and Vardy were the only bright spots in an otherwise turgid performance.

 

[Guest Lako42]

Today was the day where I genuinely realised that I don't like top level football at all. 

 

I'm done. I left 20 minutes early becait was absolutely wank. 

 

When i watch a Leicester team that doesn't give 100% then I'm done. 

 

Cant ****ing wait to watch Coalville tomorrow

What a ****ing shambles from top to bottom our club has become. 

 

**** the beer and whatever else....spend some money on the pitch. 

 

Faes, Thomas, ward, Amartey all championship level. Faes constantly putting his team mates under pressure got us to 3 nil down then he started playing well. 

 

KDH is a league 1 footballer at best. So one footed it's unreal. 

 

Harvey Barnes was so shit it hurt my eyes. 

 

Our stadium is so ****ing shit. It's falling apart. The toilets are in absolute bits it's like a immigrant detention centre. 

 

Now to our absolutely retarded fan base. Fans slagging off players at the drop of a hat. One guy sat next to me called daka slow. Honestly they're only happy when we are playing counter attacking football. 

 

The whole place is ****ed. Charging more and more and we keep running at a free ****ing donut. 

 

 

So, overall, you had a good day down the King Power?

We're a few injuries away from a relegation is the truth. Take Madders out and we are half the threat. We lose Youri or Faes and we're in trouble.

 

I think I lost the Daka hope today. I really wanted that to work, but he's just not clinical or cool enough for the Prem

This is true of every win ever.

He just needs everything into feet. Can't carry the ball like Vardy or Iheanacho

Gave up with Daka today, just when you think he might be showing something he reverts back to the player he was when he first joined, just not good enough.

His general build up play is terrible really, a top players first touch sets them up for their next move but Daka needs more time to control and then decide what to do and you don't get that at this level. The only part of his game I'm hanging onto is how lethal he can be when running onto a through ball one v one with the keeper.

Bang on..he's another people like ti hang on to there being a real "player in there". We've bought poorly for a while now and its come to but us on the ar5e. 

[st albans fox]

They pressed intelligently and it looked like they’d worked us out before the game 

 

we, on the other hand,  looked like we’d never seen their pressing game before …

 

woeful on every level …..

 

missing kolo …..

No plan B again

Taking Daka off was a mistake maybe not being hugely effective but one of the only players putting effort in in the first half 

No excuse for us to be lacking in fitness after the break, only reason for this is a bad mentality which only comes from one man at the top

I’m a big fan of Daka but I thought he was pretty crap today. 

[MS0204]

Anyone who slags off wout faes and claims he is championship is deluded, he’s improved the defence 10 fold since his arrival improving his and amarteys partnership massively.. at least wout ain’t afraid to get the ball and run forward with it picking a pass. Jeezo one bad game since his arrival and he needs relegated..

Our defense has the class of a mid-level Championship side, our goalie somewhere around that if not lower (unless his confidence is boosted).

[whoareyaaa]

5 Away wins today

[David Hankey]

The performance after 6 minutes was akin to local parks football and the rest of the game not much better. Very, very poor.

Not one bad game is it? His debut we conceed 6. Bournemouth away and now today. The way he was heading it down to their attackers instead of heading it clear is not good enough for a club raising ticket prices. 

 

Don't get me wrong I think he's been good since signing overall but today he shouldn't escape flack because he was good 5 weeks ago. 

[DerbyshireFox]

Dire. Welcome back everyone 🤣. Off it from minute one, no interest in trying for a consolation. I left at the start of stoppage time for the first time in 20yrs! Poor and sloppy all over the pitch. Hopefully can clear their heads before Friday night!

[Raj]

Who's the last real quality player we have signed who has given us say 5 games of consistent  7 out of 10's???

Wasn't very successful with alot that he did but was actually putting effort in which is more than I can say about most of the team today 

[l444ry]

Shows the recent "improvement" up in all its glory. Beat the relegation fodder but lose to any top half side. Stinks of being stubborn and only playing one way, regardless of player availability or standard of opponent. Hopefully it's just a one off and will be proved wrong but we are so one dimensional almost any half decent side will take this playing style to the cleaners.
