[Sol thewall Bamba]

We're winning the lot

[The People's Hero]

Albrighton - worrying signs. 
 

Doyle - looks a real player

 

Nacho - get him committed +4 years

Notepad Hoggle not here to slow it all down to a walk.

[limeydale]

The speed of our passing at times, ooh la la!

[FoxesWalk]

Extremely disappointing to hear Big Wes mispronounce Iheanacho. That’s him off my list of those deserving a statue. He’s on a different list now, with Robbie Savage…

Rodgers ball is all static, no real movement off the ball so you aren’t pulling the opposition around, they were able to just easily sit and wait.

He looks so sharp, can't believe some want him gone. 

That’s because they’re myopic inpatient idiots.

What a class finish!

Initially I thought Kel had fooked it by pushing himself to far wide to get a decent shot off.

That first half hour was lovely to watch. Maresca has not only changed the way we play, but the turnaround in confidence for the players is astonishing. 

 

Just goes to show when you have a manager that is willing to believe in you, it's returned with that confidence and belief of being able to play a specific but successful way. 

 

Really promising and encouraging that it's effective this early in the season. 

[Max Power]

The preciseness of some of the movements and passing patterns after only 1.5 games is very promising. 
 

We could be an absolute joy to watch as the season progresses

Are we playing that Tippy Tappy Shit again

Best player on the pitch that 1st half. Great attacking threat, great defensive coverage, picking up loose balls and winning 50/50s.

 

I can't believe I keep having to say this - BRENDAN RODGERS ISN'T HERE ANYMORE. Stop acting like he is. 

 

We are playing against Burton. Hold your horses.

 

He’s given the ball away more than most as well.

 

Took his goal lovely though.

[Legend_in_blue]

Impressed again with the mental approach to the game.  Far removed from the past 18 months.  Impressive after two games.

That’s the one. 
 

after a bit of research we got him on a free from Aston Martin or somebody and he scored our first ever ECL goal

Consummate professional, sublime passing ability, set up the first with a beautiful delivery. A senior player who brings a cool head to the reserve side he’s been made captain of. 
 

But yeh, fvck that man. 
 

Maaaaate. 

[DezFox]

Good performance so far. 
 

They had a a chance but wow they were literally piggy backing our defender but if bad decision that one! 

[Tielemans63]

I think that this is broadly the type of football the previous manager wanted us to play, but he didn't have the talent/ skill / knowledge to implement it. Possession football is fine if you have a clear purpose. 

 

Anyway, enough about him. All aboard the Enzo bus!
