Barnsley Post Match

Surely the true measure of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome? Sven's obsession with 4-3-3 is clearly insane but what is more disturbing is that people still believe he is able to sort it out.

Now I've calmed down, I still think Sven is a moron for persisting with the 4-4-3.

Yet again as a City fan, hope of a good season slowly looks to be disappearing. Cov was decent, Forest & Southampton 1st half was good, apart from that we haven't been anywhere near good enough.

We need to gel fast, because 1st - 6th is gonna disappear into the distance.

cheers mate , it won't put him off th he is a tough little bugger , just shook him up a bit at the time . We were all frustrated but there was no need for it , some people just haven't got anything upstairs .

Well, i was at the back of the stand and confronted someone about throwing bottles, he threw two. I asked him why he was throwing bottles and if he'd like it if someone threw them at him, and he said he can do what he wants. A total and complete utter ****. Hope your boy is ok. If it helps, I know he was on coach two, because he tried giving it large when we got back to the Walkers, and his name is Dan. Had it on The back of his shirt, with number 7 on.

On to the game, we're constantly too narrow, and so easy tondedend against.

Glad to see it hasn't put him off. Bloody hell there are some complete idiots about. Should be banned for life.

Been out so missed it, but 4-3-3-? Really?! WHY?!?!?! We've proven to be wank in 4-3-3 and good in 4-4-2. Doesn't take a friggin genius to decide which one to play....

Feels like a defeat. I hate being a Leicester fan sometimes.

Sven shows how fvcking clueless he can be. 4-3-3. Why? WHY? Fvcking IDIOT.

Ah, I must have imagined some very good performances playing 4-3-3 last season under Sven then, because I seem to remember us taking, amongst others, Burnley, Derby, Ipswich, Millwall, Barnsley & Watford, apart playing 4-3-3.

A lot of people overlook these facts completely. Last season 433 worked fine for us. Top scorers at home etc. Though this season it is clear our team cannot play in a 433. We just look confused, lost and the team has no shape or penetration. 442 diamond works very well with this current team.

Cheers Bert , my boys fine , it won't put him off , he has blue blood running thro his veins , as for people like this so called Dan , they all get their comuppence sooner or later . We just don't need idiots like that giving the club a bad name

Well that was fvcking painful, absolute shadow of previous Barnsley aways.

We're shite, we've not played well for 90 minutes in a game all season and it was the same last year, people are pissed off at Sven because the problems have been evident for a while and they just have no signs of changing. If it's true he's said "we're getting better and better" then that, for me is the biggest worry.

I wouldn't get rid just yet, that'd be suicidal, letting him build his own squad and then fvcking him off through a few poor performances, but the fact is if we're still under-achieving in 9/10 games time then I'll probably be calling for his head, and the way it's gone, I can see it happening, he just doesn't sort out problems.

"Better and better". Dear oh fvcking dear, deluded.

Totally agree.. I think we have to learn to give encouragement especially when things aren't going to plan. Simple psychology, if you bollock someone everytime they get something wrong- guess what? They keep getting things wrong- so much about success is how you feel. If you are relaxed and feel people believe in you, you tend to do better than when you know people are going to rant if you slip up!

It's not about not being allowed to voice an opinion. We all want the lads to play their best so lets make them feel we are right behind them!

People are twisting his words, he said something along the lines of "We are getting better and better, sadly they are only showing that for part of the time"

Really though? There was basically nothing to suggest any improvement for me, bar Beckford, of whom I rated.

If he said they were crap, he'd get blasted for undermining team morale!! Get behind the team for petes sake!!!

No, I'd be more encouraged by saying it how it is than trying to cover up a shower of shite, that to me just shows he can't accept when we've been shite or he really is just deluded.

Long drive home, a bit of supper and a quick read throught this thread.

Surprising that so many of you still have not 'got it'.

Another mediocre performance against a poor side and we barely deserved a point, Barnsley may well have stepped up from recent performances but just stop for a minute, look at the teamsheets, look at the players, are any of you seriously suggesting that a point was acceptable? Really?

We were dreadful, absolutely awful, no shape, no organisation, in fact no fooking clue. From the outset it was clear that our setup was wrong and most of our players did not have the faintest idea where they were supposed to be playing and what their responsibilities were.

I've been saying this for weeks, so one more time then I'm off to bed, knackered really -

We are not getting the basics right, our players do not know what their roles are or what is expected of then, we are a chaotic mess, routinely outplayed by teams who play as a unit with purpose and determination. That's it, that's all it takes to stop us dead in our tracks, a bit of purpose and determination from the opposition and we are fooked.

Given the players and resources at our disposal we should be doing a lot better, it's a matter of selection, setup and tactics and we are currently rubbish at all three, some people are beginning to 'get that'.

I am starting to get a little worried, Sven's team selections baffle me and I'm probably his biggest fan.

4-4-3 has got to go unless we bring in some width who can create and get forward.

I still think he'll get things right and we'll be in the top6 come xmas, but it needs to happen quickly. A lot of vitriol from our fans as per usual, expectation is ridiculously high and the Thai's will listen.

This. We need to put ourselves in the mix at the top soon to ease the pressure a bit. Think the team needs a bit of confidence at the moment, then maybe we could put some sort of run together. Need to stop this 4-3-3 crap though.

...Still angry and still laughing at the fact Barnsley consider us a Catergory A fixture.

I don't blame them for charging us £30 I blame them for considering us a Catergory A fixture :crylaugh:

I didn't go today - the biggest positive, saved a load.

I have seen glimpses this season of what we can do e.g. 1st half v Forest, rugged performances scraping wins v Cov and Saints.

I believe it will all come good eventually, we just can't slip too far behind and leave ourselves with a mountain to climb.

Although if we want promotion, you have to win games such as Barnsley away.

Sven has some problems deciding on his team and tactics from now. Oh and how come SSL wasn't on the bench ?

Agree with this, its just taking time and as long as we don't slip miles behind the leading pack we'll be up there come the end of the season. At the end of the day we're Leicester City, when do we ever do anything the easy way!! Ha.

Anyone saying we just need time to gel needs to step into the real world. That is all.

Care to elaborate on that?

Are you saying that the team has had enough time to gel, that the idea of sides needing gel is rubbish or something else?

Posted

The problem I have is Sven had last season and pre season to sort the defense etc out and it all seems the same as to where we left it

This. There's not excuse this we need time to gel shit is rubbish I hope people are still not saying this after 15 game when we've got 16points!
