On the pitch leadership

[Lambert09]

once again, a clear fault in our spine is showing. It’s obvious, we are lacking a real leader on the pitch. 

 

The way we’ve collapsed recently and nobody has truly stepped up to drag our heads up. Nobody to make us believe we can get back into the games.

 

 

We literally signed coady for this reason. We lost two hugely important players in vesty and ricardo and the game was crying out for a leader…. and we don’t play coady! i’m flabbergasted! 

 

Maybe it was too much after extra time… but you suck it up, we needed coady today. You look around and everyone just had their heads down. We conceded the first because the cb’s aren’t communicating. Coady would have just brought the experience we needed to grind this one out.

Coady and Vestergaard for the rest of the season

[Will1981]

missed Ricardo and Vestergaard immensely.

[HybridFox]

Absolute baffling Coady wasn't at least on in the second half to settle the team. We were like headless chickens

[Aus Fox]

When a player convicted of drink driving a week or so ago gets the armband today, there is clear evidence we have not got any leaders on or off the field and haven’t for a long, long time. This goes beyond the pitch and right up to the very top of the club. Zero leadership is the reason we are where we are right now.

Sideshow Faes is no leader.

Instead we've given leadership on the pitch to someone who's just been done for drink driving.

Was Hamza captain today? 😮

[SecretPro]

Don't know why Hamza gets the armband when if everyone is fit he wouldn't usually even get on the pitch. 

 

Vardy also, he's hardly vocal. Standing around pointing at shit isn't captaincy.

Oh yes.

 

Even with more established professionals on the pitch ahead of him.

 

Very, very odd choice.

Great teams have great captains. Name the captain first then the team. Not the team first then trying to figure out who wants to wear an armband

Captained a guy who’s been done for drink driving. Classy 

[Chocolate Teapot]

What about off the pitch? There's none there either.

[don_danbury]

you'd think winks would be captain. 

[Fox 4 Life]

We have one sat on the bench whilst we start a kid. Enzo needs to get over himself a bit and do what we need to do to win.

Not his first **** up either is it.

 

Very strange.

 

Winks. Justin. Faes. All stand out as better choices.

I know some won’t care but that’s really disappointed me. Give it to literally anyone else but him. What kind of message is that

It's very similar to Rodgers and Tielemans when he was in the press looking for a move. The message is a poor one.

[South Shire Fox]

Coady should of started. Dont care if Nelson played reasonably and is the future. Without Vardy and Ricardo in the starting 11 we needed a leader. Coady is that man and an organiser

[KFS]

When Keirnan’s head goes we crumble. You can see it from the first tackle on him. Maddisonitis.

A little harsh on Enzo, who on the whole has been a great character for us. Hoping he demands more and makes real changes though. Today was pathetic. 

 

I think this captain rotation is going to hurt him though. Just make a choice!

Wasn't even talking about Enzo. Was talking about the DoF and the chairman.

Spot on. Top to bottom, zilch.
