It's so frustrating cus we were on a good run before the world cup. If we could have brought a couple of players in early in the window we could have kept that momentum up. Instead they've been allowed to drift into trouble again. I'm sick of hearing the club are working hard behind the scenes. That to me means they're transfer strategy isn't working cus the hard work should be done before the window opens

It means to me it isn't working as players that are actually good have better options elsewhere and/or we are trying to get them on the cheap. Lack of investment is the bottom line. We knew in the summer and we now see the results. 

[Leicesterpool]

Lack of interest or passion. Too many passengers in that team. Rodgers has lost the plot big time. His subs strangest and killed it for us. Barnes staying on strangest.... but Albrighton playing well goes off. I dunno perhaps Rodgers is wanting to be sacked. 

 

Nacho once against doesn't start. What's he got to do.

There are more than 3 sides with less quality than us, but there aren't 3 worse sides on current performance levels. We're comfortably in that relegation group unless massive signings are made or the manager is changed.

[JimmyC74]

The number of times BR talks of us not starting / restarting well - why hasn’t it been addressed? Does he not know the answers? Of course he doesn’t #clueless

I think we’re ****ed even with a new manager. Everyone thinks get rid of Br and things will revert to ‘normal’, it won’t. 

You may get a "New Manager" bounce for a game or two (which may give us some breathing space) but most importantly you wont have his toxic  influence around the place,  the removal of his sh1t/ over training method's which hopefully leads to a reduced the injury list, and depending on who takes over a better brand of exciting football more suited to the players we have at the club instead of the boring BrendanBall set up with a mish mash of players shoehorned in to it...no not an instant revert to "normal" but hopefully a start to getting back there.  

But until the C U Next Tuesday is sacked we'll never know

Sleeping walking toward relegation. I don't think I want to watch any more of the team this season right now. 

 

These abject performances with no heart or desire ruin the weekend

Just shows how much we miss Kasper and can't even rely on Vardy to get us out of this mess. 

 

Another stuffing next week against Brighton. 

We were spoiled with Kasper tbh. At his best he was one of the best GKs in the league, not to mention his leadership and love for the club.

Most people on here will just moan from a difference. If a protest happens tomorrow, please post it cos I’m in. It’s the only thing that’ll see any possible change 

Mate I'll go sit outside the ground on my tod in a deckchair at this rate. Nothing better to do on a Sunday.

Was Top at the match? If not, no way is anything going to happen this weekend.

He's got a phone I take it? Or maybe a Zoom call. Put Rodgers on mute. 

[lcfc_forever]

Backfired playing Barnes over Ihenacho and adapting our system. His stubbornness is ridiculous. 

[RowlattsFox]

Surely it's close to him having to walk to protect his reputation?

Bringing on Lewis Brunt in a Premier league match when we are chasing the game.. this is the level we are now at

I don't understand why people don't get it. The style, the tactics, the formation - its unbelievably negative. Barnes misses a chance, but its literally the only thing happening all game. We had 3 shots - 3!!! How are we going to put anything away when you barely create anything.

 

If Barnes puts one of those away, he merely papers over cracks. Do NOT let Rodgers off here.

For starters, 3 shots, you sure about that? 
 

Second of all, we were in control all first half and up to the goal, Barnes scoring opens them up and it’s an easy three points. 

 

Nobody’s saying things are good currently, we understand it’s a mess but with half our team out, and our star players being dreadful, what’s Rodgers meant to do? 

[taupe]

It felt to me like the last 1/2 hour was played in slow motion. Both sides, like some kind of weird exhibition match.

Looks like the money problems are worse than we thought

[Sunbury Fox]

Only 1 shot in the entire second half against a newly promoted team is simply terrible on a whole new level of terrible. 

[StanSP]

Some of the posters are about to go ultra 'holier than thou' and 'told you so' mode

 

To be honest, worth it if it does mean Rodgers is given the boot... 

[Unabomber]

The media acting like it’s still all good at Leicester would be funny if it wasn’t so horrifying.

I do wonder how many targets have looked and said " nah, l wanna play in the prem next season"

As I've said before it's getting harder with the obviously poor manager and running of our club (to anyone but the conned/ media/pundits) to attract any decent talent now.

I would think any player coming here will have a relegation clause in the contract now. See it with most related teams and decent performing player usually gets sold. 
 

Seriously have no faith in the running of the club right now seem to be sleepwalking to relegation

Will that make Barnes score those chances?

According to Livescore, we had 3 shots with one (i repeat - one) on target. 

 

'Being in control' is Brendan ball. Its controlling the game through possession but with no directness or end product its meaningless. Zero risks were being taken. We could have been peppering them in the first half. That would have been in control. 

 

Brendan setup today exceptionally negative. We all saw it from the lineup. The plan was to control through possession and not lose. Against effing Forest.

Maddison comes back quickly we stay up, if he's out for much longer it's going to be tight. After doing nothing in the summer why don't we have signings ready to come in straight away? 

Perhaps Maddison is in no hurry to get back, wants off in January

[foxes_rule1978]

Didn’t watch the game, and I’m glad.
