Maybe make him Captain rather than the Bangladeshi Messi then- God knows we need a Walshy type leader at the moment.

I agree, he has shown leadership qualities and seems a good talker, lacks pace obviously but good enough for this league and seems to care, if there was a dressing room bust up as reported, I’m guessing he was pointing fingers, and if he did good on him!

It was pathetic, but even more pathetic from the dickhead behind me that decided it was acceptable to shout "coon" at their keeper.

 

Honestly what has happened to us? (I mean that as a fanbase)

Out of interest what age range was this person shouting the racist sh*t?

 

Not heard that "C' word in a very long time, prob since the 80's 90's.

 

If it was someone who was around in those days then you really would've thought they, out of anybody, should/would know better.

 

But then I guess the IQ of anyone who gives this sh*t out is, and has probably always been, challenging for them.

 

[David Hankey]

Bloody hell. Seeing the scoreline of 1-0 and getting my nightcap ready I missed the Vestergarrd effort. 

 

A valuable away point.

I can't be angry because we equalised. I think we are stuck with this manager for the rest of the season no matter what. Losing another point will only damage us further so take it and wait for the next game.

What difference does that goal make the the future of the club?

[Leicesterpool]

Terrible away end last night, that ground certainly not championship level never mind them saying premier league. I do feel that area below the upper tier was not designed for large numbers. League two ground at best.

You look at the scoreline and it was a decent draw, away to a team on the up in difficult conditions.

 

However the reality of the match tells a tale of a team devoid of ideas, cohesion and a defined pattern of play leading to relegation form underlying match stats. We're just so painfully dull to watch; constantly recycling it backwards, attacking players isolated, a noticeable lack of leaders on the pitch and I hate to say it but a GK who has an error in him. There's nothing about Marti that screams he has a plan currently, from his interviews, pitchline presence, the tactics, team selection to use of subs. If we're stuck with him (which I fear we are) he needs to take some time out to reconnect to his football ideology and then watch that game back, as you'd hope even he'll see a glaring mismatch.

I don’t think it was arrogance—it looked like embarrassment. They knew they’d been absolutely honking in the second half and were too embarrassed to celebrate.

 

It was very noticeable that in the five minutes of injury time after the equaliser they showed more fight than in the entire 90mins of normal time. Having shown precisely zero effort at 1-0 down, they suddenly seemed to think, “We may as well run around a bit now.” It was as if they thought that chasing an equaliser was beneath them, but they could just about see their way to chasing a winner. 

Its an old footballing thing...if your being dominated and give a poor show for 80 mins, the fans generally will remember the last 10mins ....you can be honking and lazy. But the fans will walk away saying we really upped our game and showed spirit! 

Its not spirit its to quell criticism.

Honestly just put Jannik up front and pelt the ball at him. He’s more mobile than Ayew and gives us an actual attack plan. 
 

We were utterly horrid yesterday. Fatawu’s decline under Mart should be studied.

[Leicesterpool]

Does anyone feel like proper deflated like we lost, even though we scored late equaliser. Weird feeling waking up this feeling so peed off with that display. Get me out of Wrexham lol.

[fazzyfox]

Had we really used our 3 substitution windows last night, Skipp’s looked like concussion which I thought shouldn’t count?

It’s a proper stand. Proper football. It should be listed 

[Tuna]

It was a decent goal from Vestergaard to be fair. Daka would have skied it.

[Bluetintedspecs]

Am I happy we robbed a totally undeserved point,  yes because every point will be very valuable with the unknown PSR punishment amount pending!

Reality was .... a shocking performance, total daylight robbery and a soul destroying lack of passion and effort by way too many of the players!

Ayew had a similar chance and ****ing slipped over

Have a bit of sympathy—he was the victim of a serious assault by the ball.

I'd say he was early 20's.

This club has broken me 

 

 

I felt annoyed.

 

Just plasters over more cracks and gives the piss stained KPFC brigade more chance to argue that everything is okay.

Simply another point added that bearing in mind a possible points deduction could be vital. If losing would have convinced me that fundamental positive changes would ensue then OK but alas I don't think it would.

[Katy]

Like others, I was pissed off when we equalised. It shouldn’t be like this, at all. I dont support Leicester to be irritated when we score a goal, its messed up. 
 

Anyway, disgusted but not surprised to hear about racist language at the game. It’s a free for all at the moment with next to no consequences. Absolutely no place for it anywhere. Well done @Craig for reporting it, I’d have done the same as we all should if we hear it. 
 

Everything is the pits on and off the pitch.

Utterly depressing that this still goes on

[Leicesterpool]

Going through each leicester player who played last night... too sum them up.

 

Jacub: back up keeper at best

 

Choudhury: Not good enough

 

Okoli: Not suited to the English game

 

Veestergard: Not good enough

 

Nelson: Still learning but not championship level

 

James: Best player we've got at the moment 

 

Skipp: improved but still bang average 

 

Reid: inconsistent 

 

Fatawu: Moments of brilliant and moments of disappearance 

 

Ayew: Lazy

 

Mavadidi: Looks disinterested and wants out

 

Monga: Still learning but really needs to be loaned out to a league one or two club but cant at present.

 

Page: Probably same as Monga

 

Pereira: Club legend whose not fit enough anymore

Jannick Vestergaard with the best piece of attacking play we've seen all year. That sums up everything really. 

I think we´ve found the goal-scoring centre forward we´ve all been asking for!

To be honest, I´d rather have Vesty up front than Daka

You're absolutely right - it's everything that's wrong with the current new breed of Temu Pep's that are stinking out the game. Everything has to be straight off a playboard with any idea of spontaneity or left field thinking completely dismissed or not even considered. Man alive, even when we had actual functioning effective centre forwards back in the 90s, the managers at the time spotted a way to win matches by throwing a big fella with decent feet up top (Walshy, Elliott) who would be a nuisance and who knew where the goal was. 

 

And now, we have our own Temu Pep persisting with one of Daka/Ayew and the competition winner Carranza when week after week after week after week, it doesn't work. He obviously doesn't think Evans is the solution, so find another solution. He wouldn't even think of chucking Vesty (or whoever) up top, because in the new world order of bland, sterile, by the numbers football, thinking out of the box isn't part of their makeup. 

 

I just want to add the thought of Lurch being our lord and saviour who propels us to Championship glory makes me feel a little bit queasy, but I can't deal with seeing the same old nonsense every week with the same result.
