dave_the_fox Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 Just found this on Youtube, pardon if it has been posted somewhere else, but this is Lee Peltier's goal today. Good quality video. http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=xcEzXyqa9FA OH SHIT THEY DANCED LIKE BERNIE!!!
dayday Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 A all round quality performance from the lads,yes it was not a classic the first games never are. Just a all round professional job done,we looked solid,midfield worked tirelessly even if a tad disjointed,defence did not panic even though we went down to 10 men. Would like to see Andy King start next week,looked quality just behind Nugent and would have a dream ticket if selected in that role each week,all so we need some width on the right maybe Dyer to replace Vassell,we just lacked that pace when we needed it. Overall job well done
Narborough_fox Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 Fernandes was a class above the rest. Reall showed his quality. Kingy looked good when he came on and Abe coped really well at Right-Back. Can't believe Nugent's header didn't go in it trickled along the line. Oh and when Peltier's goal went in and jumpig up and down in the Cov end was the BEST feeling ever.
HEGGSY Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 Slim bugger isn't he but already an instant favourite Fernandes was brill today
Simmo86 Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 @Narborough Fox Did you get any shit for celebrating while in the box? I've been in my companys box a few times at Cov and got no end of shit when we scored!
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 MOTM looks good in blue. amen to that brother
Tom17LCFC Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 Fernandes was a different level today. He just seemed to be everywhere. Would walk into the lower prem sides. The main thing I loved from today was the passion showed though. It just seemed like the players took no sh*t. As long as Sven can keep a lid on them and keep the lads disciplined we'll be sweet. I loved seeing Schmeichel smash the ball into the stand when Vassell was sent off, and then running over to confront the player who took out Wellens. Danns as well, when the cov lad was having a go at Wellens on the floor, he ran over and pushed him out the way. Did anyone else think it looked like Wellens spat at the player that took him out?
Narborough_fox Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 @Narborough Fox Did you get any shit for celebrating while in the box? I've been in my companys box a few times at Cov and got no end of shit when we scored! Nope none at all. We were going mental. Some of the looks were brilliant though. One old folk looked at us for 5 minutes in disgust and then when Barker went 2 footed into Wellens all of were on our feet.
Joe. Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 When Johnson's fit who on earth is going to play in midfield? I wouldn't want to drop any central midfielders in this squad (except Oakley).
gazfox9 Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 Ovbiously weren't there today, he was your worst player. Seriously, are you on the wind up? feck off back to your own forum if your going to keep spouting drivel.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 When Johnson's fit who on earth is going to play in midfield? I wouldn't want to drop any central midfielders in this squad (except Oakley). think it will be horses for courses this season, like today we played 2 defensive midfielders (Fernandes and Abe) whereas at home i think King will replace Abe for example so i think depending on the oppostion and wether we are at home or away etc etc Johnson will get games im sure whenit suits SGE's game plan
jmono84 Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 MOTM looks good in blue. He is really slim, I spoke to him in person tonight whilst danns and Mills were having there photos taking with some of the carribean crowd on granby street!!! They loved Dannsy... Good to see them taking time to pose with the locals!! Fernandes seemed shy and said 'I'll leave them to have there photos taken' he then got into Millsy Black Audi and they drove off
Happy Fox Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 Shame I cannot make the first home game of the season, bloody revision
Narborough_fox Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 Oh one thing about Fernandes club have told him that he needs to get a new car because the one he has in Switzerland is too flashy. Buying a Range Rover through the club from a mate of mine. True story.
Happy Fox Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 Is this guy a twat or what http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/match-centre/Coventry-City-0-0-Leicester-City-Sunday-Mirror-match-report-Lee-Peltier-gets-lucky-Sven-Goran-Eriksson-a-winning-start-after-Darius-Vassell-and-Carl-Baker-sent-off-article782315.html Football, eh? The more things change, the more they stay the same. Sven Goran Eriksson is still the great survivor, gliding serenely through life with the bashful smile of an eternal schoolboy. Darius Vassell remains a roadrunner, with a brain the size and consistency of a pickled walnut. Richie Wellens proves that players will continue to get fellow professionals sent off without the slightest compunction. Carl Baker’s 38th minute challenge on him was late, rash rather than malicious. Wellens collapsed with a sharp scream, and clutched his leg as if a backstreet butcher was attempting to amputate it with a pen knife. Referee Darren Deadman, who had sent Vassell off for a wild lunge at Baker in the 10th minute, couldn’t wait to get his red card out. Leicester had the craft, power and intelligence to make use of the greater space created by a ten-a-side match. Wellens was, with ominous predictability, the game’s pivotal figure. He drove Eriksson’s expensively- assembled strangers forward from midfield, and delivered the free kick from which Lee Peltier headed the only goal, seven minutes into the second half. Once again, the end justified the means. Even before the sun tans fade, Coventry have the pallid look of losers. They played neat one touch football, but lacked composure and resilience. Predictions of relegation have a worrying authenticity. The Championship is an unforgiving League. Fifteen clubs have changed managers over the past year, and Leicester’s Thai owners are under the impression they are purchasing a Premier League brand. It still seems a strange environment in which to find Sven (above), whose career has meandered, from Manchester City to Leicester, via Mexico, Notts County and the Ivory Coast. He has an unerring instinct for lucrative employment, but looked as out of place as a giraffe in a coal mine. He remains a hands-off coach, and restricted himself to occasional bouts of diffident applause from the edge of his technical area. The fans, of course, love him. More than 6,000 of them turned the Stadium, whose sponsors’ name escapes me, into a bearpit. Each one of them qualifies for a free pint at the next home game, but, predictably, they have the arrogance of the nouveau riche. They chanted “your ground’s too big for you”, at swathes of empty sky blue seats, and even did the Posnan as a goal celebration. Be original, chaps. You might think you are a mini Man City, but you don’t need to copy everything they do. Superiority complexes don’t suit what used to be a friendly club. Eriksson looks to have purchased a team to get out of the Division, rather than one designed to thrive on promotion. He said: “All of the players we brought have a lot experience. They’re not old but have a lot of experience of this league. “I think the referee got it right. “If he shows the red card to Darius he has to show the red card to the Coventry player too. Darius is not famous for being a tough or ugly player. Maybe he has arrived with his foot up, so… “I think when we were ten versus ten we came back well. Our new right back scored the winning goal and we didn’t sign him to score goals but he did.” Strangely, Sven did not find room in his starting line up for Andy King, one of the most under-rated midfield players outside the Premier League. He has gone for lavishly rewarded journeymen like Paul Konchesky. Not even his Mum could argue that his career is in anything other than decline. It is fortunate that Coventry lacked pace, even compared to the squirrel which invaded the pitch midway through the first half. Amazing how surreal the sights can be, when you are a refugee from the press box. The home fans, on the cashless concourses, were not happy with their team, who were restricted to long range efforts by David Bell and Lukas Jutkiewicz. Leicester should have taken the lead two minutes from the break, when David Nugent’s free header hit the base of the post, and rebounded into the arms of static goalkeeper Joe Murphy. They held on with some ease. Sven, the old rascal, got lucky yet again.

Joe. Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 Some of that might actually be credible if the writer wasn't such a pretentious twat. And I agree, King is certainly not underrated. Got lucky? Debatable.
Fox92 Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 Peltier's header was beautiful. Fernandes was great, better than what I expected, he reminds me of Diaby (Arsneal) for some reason.
