At the moment the quality in our squad is getting us by, but it’s also being strangled and shoehorned into a style that isn’t suited to all. There’s so much pace, and power in this side, yet we’re approaching the game like a bunch of wet flannels. It’s baffling that you wouldn’t want to utilise the strength in your team just to play a certain way. It’s a recipe for disaster, and of Enzo isn’t prepared to try something different, we will sing quicker than the titanic. Thought the band played? 1
purpleronnie Posted 29 November 2023 Posted 29 November 2023 Given the results bit of a nightmare for us.

Simonb Posted 29 November 2023 Posted 29 November 2023 One things for sure.. I don't want to see casadei on that squad list again. Praets back now. If he ain't available stick Albrighton on there.. always offers something.. professional, can see out a game.. cesare is useless
oz was my hero Posted 29 November 2023 Posted 29 November 2023 Sat in my motor waiting to get out if the car park, freezing and wondering to myself what shit I've just witnessed. From the first minute we were so sloppy. What an arrogant performance. Got what we deserved , in fact we got away with one. Could have been 2 down in ten minutes. 1

I'm struggling to get my head around it. Personally I think somewhere between Enzos ideas and the players implementing them something has been lost in translation. Some of our passing and play is ridiculous and serves zero purpose.

I watched Ipswich on Saturday and even though they lost, its easy to see why they second, and of course scored a ton more goals today. Lets see how we do vs West Brom, given its our next game. Won 4 out of their last 5.

I think he means about attacking intent. Not really hard to work out. I think everyone can take losing but the entertainment factor is not there from us and hasn't been for the majority of the season.
JonesLCFC Posted 29 November 2023 Posted 29 November 2023 For anyone unfortunate enough to be watching on Foxes Player: How poor is the commentator? He must have mentioned Lee Peltier's name about nine times, and he plays for Rotherham. 1
The Doctor Posted 29 November 2023 Posted 29 November 2023 Absolutely abysmal. Lucky not to lose really and against a team who've barely looked in the division and are already 12 points adrift 18 games in, that's unacceptable.

I noticed you was trying to paint it as one bad game, so I reminded you its not one bad game, now you have an issue with me pointing that out for some reason.
ARM1968 Posted 29 November 2023 Posted 29 November 2023 What bothers me is that I don’t think this was complacency. I genuinely think teams saw what Leeds did and are just replicating it - result, we lose all composure and make stupid mistakes and then just fall apart. The pass pass pass for the freaking sake of it is mind numbing. Sure. Pass pass pass, get it to the side men, bomb on and get the ball into the box. Change it up a bit. Enzo won’t, of course, because he is right, his tactics are right and if you just stick to the plan it will work eventually. Except we’ve all seen this before. Usually we fall off AFTER Christmas. It’s not even this result. We’ve been woeful for weeks. We appear to have found the other gear, only it’s reverse.

I’m just saying, we built it a bit at the weekend, and with this matchday, it’s shrunk a bit. it’s not huge calamity you seemed to be presenting. it’s almost as if the season has twists and turns with each round of fixtures or something
Spiritwalker Posted 29 November 2023 Posted 29 November 2023 7 minutes ago, sbfox said: We've conceded 11 times all season. I think we're doing the defensive basics just fine. Not tonight we didn’t, this thread is about tonight’s match. If you think we defended well tonight I’m not sure what you’ve been watching.
mozartfox Posted 29 November 2023 Posted 29 November 2023 Rotation is obviously important when you have to play 46 games, BUT getting the rotation correct is also very important. I think Enzo got it seriously wrong this evening with the Team selection, plus Wednesday were for up for this and we clearly were not. For sure the Fars, Coady and Janick combination was a total car-crash and looked shaky. 2 pts dropped could come back to haunt us….. Tough game at the weekend and hopefully those rested tonight put in a seriously excellent shift at the weekend. We must not forget Enzo is also on a learning curve too. Hopefully he is a quick learner………… Terrible night all around. Onwards we go.
adejo92 Posted 29 November 2023 Posted 29 November 2023 This football had already killed off the tiny bit of atmosphere the KP had. Absolute bore fest. 2

Thats the issue for me, I want to see us pounding the opponents box until we have a comfortable lead, I expect that every game until promotion is secured. I hope that also explains why I dont like the ball being overplayed as it kills of so many potential moves, and any errors in overplaying it gives the opponents a easy possession steal in our third.
