Really and quite thankfully, pathetic. 
 

Bullied on and off the ball. Preston wanted it more, and worked harder. We kept trying things that just weren’t working for most of the game but Preston successfully managed to identify our weak points and go direct again them.
 

Monga the only one that can come out of that without any credit whatsoever. We had a 5 minute period either side of scoring when we finally looked ok but then we just shot ourselves in the foot. Trying too much around the box trying  to be intricate and get caught on the break.
 

A lack of heart, a lack of enthusiasm. Tried to walk the ball into the net or shoot from ridiculous positions. Obviously, and typically Daniel Iversen makes an unreal save to deny Fatawu. 
 

We desperately need additions to freshen all this up. The players need to take a long hard look at themselves after this as well. 

If last season couldn't make them do that,  it won't happen now.

I said it in the match thread and I'll say it again here, I would take relegation if it meant getting new, motivated and competent ownership.

[em9999]

Under the current structure I really don't want us to get promotion and get even more embarrassed anyway 

 

Don't give a flying shit about this season

You are aware it’s Skipp and Daka as replacements right ? 

Page... and you wouldn't take Daka 9 Bilal / Monga / even Ayew as 10 over Ayew at striker?

 

convince me that Evans wouldn't be an improvement on Ayew up front... you won't be able to.

Mavs and Abdul have always blown hot and cold, and both were off today.

They both get like this when no one offers help. They do too much and when it’s bad it’s noticeable because they are the only ones trying.  No one played them into space.

 

Ayew stinking out set pieces, counter attacks and any build up.  Daka comes on to match his play and ability.

 

[reynard]

The issues are too big to deal with in one or two transfer windows. Quite clearly players don't want to be here and it shows on the pitch. Ayew was a poor signing but probably isn't the worst of our problems.

Midfield is just so so poor. We really need so many new faces it can't be done apart from a complete rebuild. 

Who knows if we have the right manager.  He's been left with a terrible squad and no signs of support in recruiting new players. But it will need a really strong and determined character to turn the current useless mob around.

Every single game we are saying the same thing. It’s crap. It’s been this way for god knows how long. We’ve looked second best in probably the last 50 games we’ve played league wise but managed to scrape a couple of wins along the way. 
 

I genuinely can’t remember such a long stint of turgid football where there hasn’t even been a single solitary “can we turn it round” moment as we are in now. Like I said, it’s got to be 50 games or more since we last looked good.

 

We dropped out of the Prem because we were obscenely out of our depth, and we don’t look any better in the baby pool .

 

Its fcuking rancid at the minute, and every single aspect of Leicester City is pulling in a downward trajectory.

Nothing changes if nothing changes.

 

Same bunch that got relegated again, turning in gutless performances and being shown up by a 16 year old.

 

I cant see anything other than mid table without a lot of investment in the squad. Its rotten.

I’m going to bite your hand off for mid table

Have a choice between Ayew and Daka for a striker is the equivalent of having a choice between Anne Widdecombe and Susan Boyle as a lover 

I'd rather Anne and Susan playing upfront then those cooooontd

[Fazzer 7]

This club is in decline it's plain to see and you just can't imagine anyway out with these players. I think there is a general misconception of how good these players are. 4 or 5 maybe are consistently good enough for this league. The rest, well what can you say, the fact no other clubs wants them speaks volumes. 

[Dan]

We're basically Stoke.

I think a handful of them who played today aren’t really that bothered, so I can’t see them looking at themselves.

Some of our fans will still clap the team off if they get relegated this season

 

[em9999]

I can truly see this team closer to relegation than the play offs

If today wasn't a wake up call to the club that things have to change on and off the pitch then I don't know what is. 

 

Get a proper striker in, sell some of the medicority and deadwood. 

 

Reset and rebuild needed. 

Agree entirely but trying to sell the mediocre and the deadwood is the problem, nobody’s going to buy them.

what do I think of the result ?
 

Top is the problem. Everything stems from him. The man whose own mother thinks he’s a liability, if you “back him” you’re retarded. His father left him with a top 6 PL club, a squad capable of winning cups. now we need to comment on a 2-1 defeat to Preston ****ing North End after being out fought. 
 

**** the ****. I hope he goes broke. And his wife shags the gardener. 
 

Monga did well. Well done mate.

Worth noting that at the start of November of 2018 when Vichai died, we were 12th. Our highest finish other than the PL win under Vichai was 9th.

drain the pissing swamp, hate some of these lot with a passion

No. It’s self protection 

[Paul_lcfc_1988]

Losing to this lot shows how far as a club we have fallen, to many in this club starting from top/rudkin as well as the kpfc fans think this is acceptable! 
 

tired of hearing the excuses or the blind loyalty in recent years towards top! And the remember where we once was, well those saying that will be happy as we are heading that way! 
 

 

[davieG]

The defence is sub standard and has been since the PL relegation. The midfield doesn’t exist. We have no striker worthy of the name. On the plus side we have a couple of decent wingers. It’s simply not enough other than to scrape a play off if Marti can get some recruits.

Ok, we still beat ****ing Preston though. 

[apollo4joe]

Why would anyone be surprised? We were a genuine embarrassment last season and what have we done about it? Nothing, just carried on over the summer like there's nothing wrong and sign not one outfield player while either not wanting to move/ can't move on poor and unmotivated players.

 

We're crap and it isn't changing anytime soon.

[Jakemoore]

I can’t even get excited about having Jeremy Monga in our squad. It just feels like he’s on loan for the season. He’ll go in the summer and that will be that.

 

The club is in utter ruins. 
 

Sell Top. Honour your father and do the right thing. Sell our club now whilst it retains some saleable assets. Don’t let us slip back down to L1.

We need a manager who has ideas, has a game plan.  Being poundland pep, doesn't guarantee results
