Man Utd 2-1 LCFC - Post Match Thread

[foxesfan98]

Honestly not arsed about losing due to an officiating mistake. What bothers me more is the fact that we don't ever look like we're trying to score goals. Every game it's the same with the wrong players selected and Bilal having to everything on his own. If you can only score 1 goal a game then you have to at least be solid at the back which we know we'll never be, so surely the plan should be to at least give the fans something to cheer and if we go down at least we'll have put up a fight. Never been more certain an attack is about to die as when Ayew gets the ball and I'm just fed up.

We're trying, just not good enough. Depressing eh? Agree about ref's decisions - struggle to care

Disagree with that ,I thought we played well until we were robbed at the end 

Just for clarity if you’re disagreeing then you’re saying that performance was worse than the Everton game? 
 

Are you sure you disagree? 

[ozvaldo]

WTF’s happened to Harry Winks’ passing? 

[cruzFOX]

I thought we played really well 1st half. Everyone was getting Stuck into tackles making interceptions running 5 yards more and twice as fast etc. The equalizer swung the pendulum a bit. We were still in this game but yes losing N’didi really affected us. Instead of kasie knackeredteer & winks Ruud should have brought on the kids!

 

as for the ghost offside that was about as bad a refereeing howler as it gets. Will we get an apology and excuse from the refs association in the morning?

Soumare was awful tonight. Constantly giving it away 

Don’t agree with that. Gives it away at times but he had another solid game for me.

Nothing he's just a Championship player on a big wage. 

[Bob Weasel Fox]

The whole team is gash

 

why didn't we play some of the younger talent but keep persisting with Jordan Ayew and grandads army ?

[foxile5]

Anyone listen to the talk sport commentary? 

 

Unbelievable. Along the lines of '5 players offside but we don't care about that' to them admit he 'has no dog in the fight'.

 

Extremely bizarre admission of bias.

 

I'm glad we're out the cup but for goodness sake I cannot believe the relief from a major broadcaster that United won.

[filbertway]

The lino had literally no chance of seeing if he was on or off due to bodies in the way. Could have done with his ref helping him out.

 

It's not bent or fixed, he literally couldn't see as the line of sight was blocked off 

 

Still not sure why Mads hasn't claimed that, his one weakness is decision making from crosses.

 

 

If your defenders are gonna stand about 30 yards from goal then the keeper should be on his 6 read to claim anything that goes close to the goal

First half constantly giving away. But then Winks came on to do it even better

It would help if we actually used the right players though. The only pacy wingers we have were left on the bench while Ayew played 90 mins again. It's going to be a loooong last few months of the season.

[TheGoldenGod]

To be honest, you can lose games and still have your head held high and today was one of them. However...Winks passing was atrocious when he came on. Ndidi and Bouba straight back in for Arsenal!

Worst Leicester performance in 20yrs / utd are horrid and we still found a way to let them win - Jesus 

You clearly didn’t watch the last game against Everton. Tonight we were ok, certainly our best performance against Man U this season! Plenty of performances this season and in Rodgers’ last season that have been way worse than this and that’s only going back 3 years, not even considered the Levein and Holloway stints that both fall into your 20 year window! 

[Phil Mitchell]

Hate what the clubs become anyway and especially hate where the games got to, I’ve officially given up tonight, can’t catch a ****ing break from disappointment.

The linesman had an unobstructed line of sight. It was an excellent offside line by the defence, Maguire and 3 teammates were offside before the freekick and didn’t move from that offside position. The decision was so poor it looked corrupt.

Why didn't Vardy play?

 

I don't know but I saw him in the Spire in Oadby earlier today.

I like that you think the players were hollow, but they weren't

It was interesting that Maguire and the others played beyond the defensive line so soon. It was like they knew they had some kind of immunity.

[winteriscoming]

They were there for the taking. Shocking naivety from Ruud tactically. Get him gone asap. 

[Mendi]

MANCHESTER UNITED's winning FA Cup goal against Leicester should NOT have stood.

What?!?

[HybridFox]

I know we'd have probably lost in ET but it's always a sh***y way to go out on a clear officiating error. Happens to us time and time again as well

You’re on the wind up mate, the Man U players were 2-3 steps at least ahead of our last line of defence and the linesman would’ve had the best view of that in the whole stadium. There was no one blocking his view of Maguire and it was from a dead ball situation - that’s a simple decision in Sunday league football, a well paid assistant referee earning £60k plus expenses a year minimum should not be missing decisions like that.
