Stoke Post Match

[Vacamion]

 

TEN BLEDDY POINTS clear of 3rd.

Very boring match but we were in complete control. We desperately need to stop playing ourselves into trouble on the break considering just how few times we have a chance to hit opponents on the counter, we have to be clinical and we are missing something in the final third, thankfully we are very obviously well above this level and our class keeps "saving" us in terms of getting the results over the line, but we really need to be getting that second goal earlier and burying the game. 10 points clear of the playoffs already.

Enzo so far is showing huge promise, and could well be on his way to the top in the future. Hopefully we can keep him interested in our project and give him the financial backing and contract needed to keep him here should this form continue. Long way to go yet but once again another largely stress free weekend.

If we’re judging a defender by his ability to defend, then like Maguire, Vestergaard is going to be found out (again) at the top level if we keep him. Like Maguire people are mugging themselves off because he’s good on the ball.

Matt Elliot is very depressing 

I loved his little chuckle during the replay of Kel's goal against Preston though. It's the exact noise I've been making all season.

Also huge shoutout to @whoareyaaa for their efforts in breaking the world record for number of times posting the same link in a single thread.

Brendan Rodgers should receive a trophy for taking us down. It really was an incredible achievement.

Christ this season is boring

[ARM1968]

We’re getting a bit predictable now. 

[z-layrex]

Same old boring result. ENZO OUT.

[tickler28]

My heart and nerves are grateful for the season off

[Guest Basildon Fox]

Great result. Quite a dull game except for the last 10 mins but always in control. Too easy.

Nobody is judging Vestergaard by anything other than his ability at this level. He's vastly experienced and better than the Championship, as is evidenced by his start to this campaign.

 

Whether he will get found out (again) at top level is an irrelevance, as his contract expires at the end of the season.

We will address that problem if/when we go up. So that leaves you with just the 98 problems now.

I know this is a lower division but Enzo and Vesty deserve credit on the comeback in Vesty's career

[Jonezy]

Enjoying this season.

he won't be managed by a Dinosaur this time round though

[Guest Sideshow Faes]

Barely out of second gear. Way too good for them.

Not convinced about yunus on the wing is the only negative.

[RowlattsFox]

Love that we are so good at this level that opposition teams and fans think they are in the game when reality is,  we are completely in cruise control.

Men against boys that. Can’t imagine we will have an easier game. Stoke were atrocious.  Vesty MOTM then Winks. Stoke fans chanting about Vardy when he wasn’t even on the pitch says it all, people are just coming to see Leicester and Vardy.

[StatFox]

Jamie Vardy has now scored more league goals in 2023/24 (4) than he did in in 2022/23 (3).

Totally agree re Yunus out wide. Looks far more effective inside. He’s a bit Praet-like on the wing.

Water into wine doesn’t even begin to describe what Enzo has done with Vestergaard. A genuine miracle worker and now means our £7.5m summer signing has a real job on his hands getting in the side once he’s fully fit. Said elsewhere but it’s not just the playing well, it’s the fact he looks involved and engaged, too. For someone who was shunted out and lied to by Rodgers it’s some turnaround and it’s great to see a lot of fans (including me!) recognise he’s not just a Scandinavian Winston Bogarde.
