It’s inevitable isn’t it?

This is what a relegation battle feels like, you’re meant to feel like your team is rubbish, because it is.. that’s why we’re here 😂

Wolves are nowhere near as bad as we are. Gave it a right go yesterday at Liverpool and deserved a draw. Also they have something we don’t; a genuine superstar Cunha, who can score a goal out of nowhere. 

But still only have two points more.

[Stadt]

We don’t score enough goals. Doesn’t matter what the current gap is, we’ve gone 5 home games goalless and we concede two a game.

 

RVN is stubborn too so I can’t see anything changing significantly enough.

It was obvious to me when we were getting praised in games we were losing. Nobody plays especially badly but losing is just the standard.

Yep, we have had ‘positives to take’ from the last 10 matches, problem is we lost 9 of them.

 

The table says there is still hope, our performances say otherwise.

 

We are just to soft throughout the team. We offer nothing upfront and and are hapless at the back.

This doesn't seem like much of a 'battle'. The bottom 3 are likely not to reach 30 pts. It's a surrender.

Yeah it looks like we have to better than Ipswich and Wolves. We have shown glimpses of solidarity and being able to defend for 80 odd minutes (or until Ndidi gets subbed) which gives me a degree of hope. We also have created a few chances of late but sadly they've fallen in the main  to Ndidi as well – oh the irony!

 

Bilal, and Mavididi have a goal or two in them but don't defend as well as Ayew who gotta be honest was half decent last game. 

 

Yeah we are probably, almost definitely going down but it's Leicester City after all - never say never, there may be a great escape from nowhere yet but I'm not gonna hold my breath.

I've accepted that relegation is highly likely, but nothing is inevitable this far out. I sincerely hope the players and coaching staff don't think that.

You wouldn't say that to Thanos.

Every side apart from Southampton has a potential match winner, we lost ours the moment Fatawu got injured

Who's Thanos, is he in charge of the Kirby Muxloe Separatist group?

Point on the doll to where Daggers touched you.

It's inevitable, West Ham are 10 points clear and Wolves have Cunha who will secure them the points. 

[Coalman]

I think that both Ipswich and Wolves are better teams and look like fighting and working harder  to stay up than us ( we have had our moments though ) but that means nothing where the league is concerned....its points on the board that matter and as others have said we are 2 pts from safety at this moment.  At home to  Brentford this week, means we really do need something from this game to give the players hope as well as fans.

[Eskay]

For me it was done the day we got pumped by Everton. 

 

We were crying out for any sort of positive moment. Getting a bit of luck and everything falling our way....we got that at spurs. 

 

To then follow it up with that Everton performance was unforgivable. 

 

In the great escape season the club didn't feel this divided. And I remember not being wildly pissed off with the players as much as I am most weekends now.

If we can match wolves and Ipswich results and beat them then we have a chance need to change the attack tho however I’d still keep Vardy in there

It's the hope that kills you.

We really are gone. Time to accept it..

Take out our LCFC bias and look at the team set up from top to bottom and it’s an inevitability. Player for player,  this squad’s comparative ability is perfectly reflected by our current league position of bottom but one. 
 

A 38 year old striker being fed by two 30+ non wingers, neither blessed with pace (and one with no apparent dribbling ability) but still playing as actual wingers. An inexperienced number 10, great on the ball but not achieving the assists or goals that one day he will. The 2 midfielders behind him, one very injury prone and one who continually loses concentration off the ball. Then a defence with no reliable defensive rocks. Every one of them more flawed than able at this level, either through lack of pace, positional sense, football intelligence or football ability. A goalkeeper that he and the rest of the squad knows will get a move irrespective of where the club finishes at the end of the season. 

 

A team with no obvious leader and one with a weakened bench with few promising players not trusted by a novice manager who is stubborn with his team selection and tactics despite losing game after game.

 

A team full of players haunted by previous relegations with an increasingly fractious crowd, with an absent senior management team - some more focused on maintaining their own position as head sycophant to the owner.

A senior management team that have failed consistently over a significant period of time and have shown, with contracts dished out over the summer, that they still have  minimal knowledge of market values of players not to mention a total lack of common sense succession planning with regards their managers (Enzo to Cooper ffs.)

 

All absolutely clear relegation indicators.

Relegation? 
 

We are lacking creativity and can’t score goals. We’ve averaged a goal per game this season, however we look terrible.

 

We can’t keep a clean sheet, conceding an average of 2.2 goals per game. 

 

We’ve got a head coach that has a philosophy that needs different or better players. Players that were not invested in during the transfer window. At this point I think PSR is a convenient excuse not to spend any money. 
 

Ruud hasn’t set the world on fire by any means. In fact, he’s performing far worse than Cooper was. 
 

We’ve gone from being extremely boring to watch, to being even more boring, to the point that the most exciting thing occurring is supporters kicking off at the board. 
 

Our most promising player in Buonanotte in the early part of the season, has been ostracised by our largely incompetent and out of depth head coach.

 

We’ve spent a weird amount of money on Oliver Skipp. Bizarrely, that could have signed us some semi competent defenders. 

 

So relegation, it’s inevitable, isn’t it? 

But apart from that everything looks rosy

[Sly]

If you were to make up a team of the bottom four teams.

 

GK: Hermansen

DL: Ait-Nouri

DC: Agbadou

DC: Doherty

DR: Semedo

LM: Dibling

CM: Aribo

CM: Gomes

AM: El Khannous

RM: Hutchinson

FW: Cuhna

That team alone would be punching to just about make it past 15th.
