nuttytimmy Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Disappointing to put in a first half like that... again! Encouraging we made the changes at half-time to give ourselves the performance needed to give ourselves a chance, but it wasn't to be no shots on target in the whole of the first half & unlucky in the second. Bring on Blackburn! Agreed - we went out and gave them a game, where I think last season we might have capitulated. Read more here - Conclusions from the Valley.
Guest Col city fan Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 The second half showed that we were the better footballing team... They faded away and it was all Leicester. But, we MUST take our chances. Three good chances, all squandered... That's not acceptable.
Corky Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Currently only Blackpool have 6 points, and they are still playing so that could change.
Babylon Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 same sort of performance as last season. not got much hope. and as for Vardy, i think we know why he has been in the lower leagues all his career. Andy King is looking fairly good though. After one and a half games you are writing him off. I seem to remember Beckford and Nugent missing chances as well!
whoareyaaa Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Why isnt Danns getting a chance. Performed well towards end of last season. Has person had another bust up with someone? Ask Mark_w and Babylon they seem to know.
LJS Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Yes it is only the second game of the season, but come on, same old same old, losing away to who!! And how Many chances do we ****ing need in these kind of games!!! Pissed off And to who? That kind of arrogance will do us no favours. Probably worth remembering that we were where Charlton are now just a couple of years ago. And they were in the top flight more recently than us. Anyway, not too worried by this. From what I can gather we should have won, but we'll have games like this over the course of a 46 game season. I don't know quite what people's expectations are. There are several clubs and teams of similar size and quality to us in this league - Charlton are among them, by the way - and we won't be beating them all. We're probably capable of a top six finish, but I'd say there are several more who can claim that.
Number 6 Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 same sort of performance as last season. not got much hope. and as for Vardy, i think we know why he has been in the lower leagues all his career. Andy King is looking fairly good though. Vardy whom many voted MOTM against Pboro?
Guest shearfox Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 After one and a half games you are writing him off. I seem to remember Beckford and Nugent missing chances as well! Typical Leicester fan what do you expect...
Legend_in_blue Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 We need three in the middle of midfield to start games away from home. There's no excuses, NP has the options available to him, so why persist with a 442?
Grewks Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 why are people still wanting beckford to play?? Yes vardy and nugent missed chances, but beckford never gets any. He is hopeless and does not deserve to play if he is 'high fiving' the opposition. King for james nugent for beckford knockaert for dyer We need to win on saturday otherwise we will be getting left behind already.
Guest Col city fan Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Don't write anyone off!!! No-one....... James and Vardy are NOT simply shite because we lost tonight. Get real people... We became the stronger side and on another night could have won that match. Stay positive, but be realistic. Why do so many people have to swing between brilliant and shite so quickly!!?
tylesta Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Vardy from inside the 6 yard box free header!!! got to be put away. sounded like he played well though. dyer i have said this from the start great in league 1, gets himself in great postions, creates space and has some leathel pace, there is no point in having a winger who cannot get his head up and only really has one assit which is pace crossing is beyond me been a winger for years and still cannot cross i like dyer but i think knocky sounded as though he came on and sounded good think it's time for a change
lestajigs Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Made a decent fist of it but we shouldn't be putting ourselves into that position in the first place. Not all doom and gloom, don't think any team has managed two wins from the first two games and I think the league will carry on like this with everyone dropping points. Blackpool..
Out Foxed Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 midweek away game so i'm not too disheartened. slightly miffed that the french spag scored.
City_4_Life Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Really frustrating. Sounded like two sloppy goals we conceded and how my f**king chances did we need to put the ball in the net.
DorsetFox9 Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Surely Knockeart, King, Nugent and Danns have to come is? Drinkwater just gives the ball away 24/7
Grewks Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Don't write anyone off!!! No-one....... James and Vardy are NOT simply shite because we lost tonight. Get real people... We became the stronger side and on another night could have won that match. Stay positive, but be realistic. Why do so many people have to swing between brilliant and shite so quickly!!? You just summed up our problem - inconsistency.
irishfox Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Was always going to be a though game but come on how many chances do they need before finally deciding to put the ball in the back of the net???
Babylon Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Blackpool.. Yeah realised that one after I wrote it. Bloody Blackpool.
Guest parky0607 Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Blackpool.. Never gonna hear the end of this off my fella when he gets home
Burmesefox Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 I think we'll get promoted this year. I just think we need a little bedding in and Pearson has to gear the team up to be more aggresive and play at a higher tempo from the 1st minute. Knockeart sounds like a much better bet to me. Personally I would like to see Danns somewhere in the midfield as he offers that spark but hats off to kingy!
yorkie1999 Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Don't understand not having Futacs on the bench. We make like for like substitutions that do'nt give us options. We need to be able to bring a big man on who can win the long ball.
Babylon Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 Surely Knockeart, King, Nugent and Danns have to come is? Drinkwater just gives the ball away 24/7 24/7... Really?
eddylcfc Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 IMO Pearson should have been more flexible. Changing a winning side is always hard, however he should have seen signs from Saturday that changes needed making. Knockaert should have played instead of dyer and away from home we should have played an extra cm to add steel! Pearson must learn from this and IMO should play 4 3 2 1 away from home! This said hind sight is a wonderful thing! Keep the faith
Manc Fox Posted 21 August 2012 Posted 21 August 2012 This league ain't gonna be easy to get out of for anyone but we have a very good team so have a very good chance. 10 points clear by xmas, come on City!!
