Norwich post match

[Blueman1967]

That had going down written all over it

[ALC Fox]

Who do you reckon - if anyone - out of this shower gives a damn that they could be part of the worst Leicester City side ever?

 

Like, the slow decline over multiple mediocre Championship seasons, culminating in our first relegation to League One, was the lowest this club's ever been.

 

But successive relegations would be a new low, in my opinion.

Several areas of concern for me after today:

 

- Tactically we went back to the slow sideways and backwards passing with no attacking intent. Whilst I don’t advocate going long all the time, a ball down the channel to get the oppositions defence turned is ok

 

- What we were doing clearly wasn’t working at half time. No changes. Should have made a couple of subs to change the shape and/or freshen things up 

- we are criminally unfit

 

- defensively soft again, need to work a lot harder to stop chances. 2nd goal was a joke

Oxford United beating West Brom could also be very significant.

Watched it in the pub after the protest. 
 

 

RIP Leicester City Football Club

The question in my mind is now switching from if, to WHEN we go down to League 1, can the club actually survive?

First half when there was an injury the players went over for a drink, could clearly lip read rowett saying ‘too slow’

because Oxford will overtake us soon too? We may as well go down in style - 2nd bottom.

We dont have a couple of years in league 1. We're going bust.

Without a doubt this is my fear, great if going bust & therefore administration gets rid of Top and KP, but not great if going bust means the club no longer exists. 

[Kierzz]

We made Norwich look like Man City.

 

You can't defend that deep and passive at home. We are so easy to play against. We have to play higher up and press teams like Norwich.

 

Winks was poor today, but if he was in a Norwich shirt, he would have run riot considering the amount of time we gave their players on the ball.

Yeah 23rd is going to be where we end up

[Reg Vardy]

Not denying second half was very poor…..only silver lining is everyone else lost and we are no worse off, and that’s despite some being in front at some point, can’t see anything from Ipswich next week, gets easier after that we can do this, encouraged by James return, think DCR can’t play where he did today….Begovic sounds like a twisted ankle, and Lascelles to replace Okoli…we haven’t had a centre forward all season…..can see Mukasa & James playing through the middle…..be nice to have Ramsay back……keep believing…..

[UniFox21]

 

Okoli looked more like doing the cha cha slide than defending 

 

[Rubbersoul]

I would love to know what these professional and vastly experienced managers see that means Ayew is someone they turn to.

The argument will be we haven't got anyone else but I'd like to see some youth players even if they aren't ready, they may become ready by playing, some may shock us, I know that's easier said then done when you come into a struggling team, but most kids play without fear and with everything to prove. 

[Skiddly Diddly]

Thought the game had 0-0 draw written all over it at half time , which wouldn’t have been a great result coming off the back of those two draws away from from .Thought the players would get a half time rollicking like  at stoke and come out fighting second half and nick a much needed win . They seemed to be worse and no one took the game by the scruff of the neck and took the game to Norwich. As soon as they scored knew we were done . Absolutely disappointing after two hard fought away points .

[Edingleyfox]

The team looked lethargic and could barely string any passes together all afternoon. Winks did put a couple of decent forward passes but Daka couldn’t do anything with them passing out from the back is so poor and slow.  I know Leicester played midweek but Norwich had a day less to recover. Really poor fitness and as happens so often when they concede confidence evaporates further and the challenges become even more half hearted defensively. Hell of a task for Gary Rowett

Yeah because Oxford will overtake us soon too by the looks of it.

Lost all 4 of our 12.30 kick offs at the KP this season. Oddly enough have won all 4 of our 3pm kick offs. Away form at both times isn't great but still better at 3pm. So we just need 3pm kick offs for the rest of the season and we'll be fine

[RowlattsFox]

Almost like the manager makes no difference. Awful imbalanced squad.

That performance was very worrying. 

That, in itself, seems a strange thing to say after a multitude of worrying performances. However, after some much improved shows lately, it may have been possible to dare to hope we could avoid relegation.

Any glimpse of optimism though has been well and truly banished as far as I can see.
