This will be a Laurence Dallaglio moment

Pretty sure there were people saying the same thing following the dismal performance and loss to Middlesbrough.

Did we not get a reaction? If we'd had any sort of composure in front of goal, we would have stuck 4 past them and we'd be talking about it being one the great championship away performances.

Agree, it was a outstanding 60 minutes. 

What do we expect after this game?

Statement performance against QPR, for a start. Think we need 4 points from Hull and Sunderland now. Then beat Southampton to put them out of it. 

 

March fixtures are tricky for us and easy for Leeds/Ipswich- if we're still top by April we'll be fine.

 

Could do without the Bournemouth game to be honest.

The crucial word in that sentence is mentality and this group of players haven’t got a strong one. No natural leaders. No Huth, Morgan, Walsh, Elliott. 

There are none of those players in ANY team and until the title season Morgan was never credited as a real leader, he benefitted massively from Huth arriving. Go through the league, there's no Keane's, Shearer's, Vieras, the characters, the shouters and leaders are rare these days.

 

The team is led by Coady, Winks, Ricky, KDH and Vardy. All vastly experienced players with international and European games under their belt. The spirit is alive in the side, as much cameraderie now as the title side or the 90s/promotion chasing sides under Little & O'Neill. Results pull you through and our run in - especially if Saints needs re-arranging is favourable.

England lost away at Australia I think and Dallaglio told the locker room afterwards to drink it in. That sickening feeling. That it hurts so much that the team never dare lose again. 

 

I honestly think we do that now. We will.win every remaining game. We were so far ahead of second place  it is untrue. All the injustice of this result will be taken out on the next 12 teams 

That required a squad with some bottle though

Great post. We were also so much better than Leeds - forwards and onwards - im looking forward to Tuesday night now 

[Number 6]

Would be great to see us use it as motivation for the run in. Can't see us winning 12 in a row though. Would be a ridiculous run and even if we did there'd be the standard blip after confirming promotion.

Players and Enzo needs to now channel the frustration and anger from yesterday's game into a siege mentality..... hopefully

Is she the one that Sven rogered??

Arsenal away moment would be a better analogy for those who don't chase eggs

Virtually every post / topic at the moment seems to include some reference to bottle or mentality 

 

Genuine question; how many of the current squad have won anything meaningful or gained promotion ( excluding Vards and Marc )

Im guessing the answer is very few but I honestly don’t know

We really are a weird team aren’t we  but that’s why we love it so much. Never a dull moment and all that jazz. Leicester never does things the easy way. Here’s my premonition based on my gut and that is we will clinch promotion and top spot but it will be close. This team will find its bottle and get over the line (just in time).

Thank you Sly

 Certainly a few more achievements than I thought 

Suppose our two starting centre halves is the standout followed by Winks but hardly fair to call those three out for the whole squad’s alleged poor mentality

Absolutely howled at the idea that we had a man of the caliber of Lawrence Dallaglio in our dressing room. Thanks for that.

 

Only found at the Tigers these days.

Glad you're happy dude!

More like a Brendan Rodgers moment 

[HybridFox]

Think we'll need Laurence Dallaglio to play at this rate!

[Mickyblueeyes]

We’re the club who, when relegated with a group of players desperate to get out and playing way below acceptable standards, attempted to host them on the pitch with an after party, bouncy castle, deck chairs and Top offering free BJs all round. Each of those players who had the free albeit toothy BJ is showing far more effort, love etc. for their new badge. 
 

The club has something lacking. Something not very Leicester like: we’ve been shit before but to just continually give it up, there is something seriously wrong. Top to bottom. 
 

No Deeney or Dallaglio, Sheff United at home, 2-0 defeat to Peterborough etc. moment until we sort the culture that is very much broken. Those days are very far away.

Know what you mean. I cannot resonate with it one bit.
