artursteppe Posted 22 December 2012 Posted 22 December 2012 He is never going to get it. Same team that lost 1-0 to Millwall, same weak midfield. Same midfield that could not tackle the skin off a rice pudding. ( I used that line when it was Dyer, Wellens, King and Gallagher in midfield ). The 'pussy' midfield, I called that one. How about 'girly midfield' now. Arsenal ladies midfield could kick lumps out of this lot. Strangely, I am not blaming the players, I actually like Knocky and Drinky, King is OK going forward, Dyer can from time to time be useful. The fault is totally down to Pearson who is tactically inept, and he will never change. He hasn't got a clue about what is wrong, he will persist and he will continue to be wrong and continue to prove his inadequacies. He will be sacked, it is inevitable, it is only a matter of time. We will not make top two with Pearson and if we get to the play-offs, promotion will still be a long shot, when most opposition managers have more idea than Pearson. For those who have not read my posts all season, we should be lining up with a 4-2-3-1 formation.
5waller5 Posted 22 December 2012 Posted 22 December 2012 Didn't you start a thread with almost exactly this title already?? Why not just post in that one??
El Fleeco Posted 22 December 2012 Posted 22 December 2012 The same formation that was so sucessful against watford?
ithuriel Posted 22 December 2012 Posted 22 December 2012 Actually we lacked in front of goal, hit the woodwork a few times, blazed it wide, one too many touches in the penalty area. Bar Nugent we are not clinical with chances.

He needs to post it as many times possible because some fans aren't seeing it! He is right ! Too many loyal fans not seeing the reality! Too scared to say it because you think it's a knee jerk reaction.
Albert Posted 22 December 2012 Posted 22 December 2012 Any team with Lloyd Dyer in the first 11 will never win promotion. All heart no substance. The guy couldn't cross a road let alone a football....
Mark_w Posted 22 December 2012 Posted 22 December 2012 This just in, 81% of Foxes Talk posters not 'fans'.
El Fleeco Posted 22 December 2012 Posted 22 December 2012 Yes there is an echo Yes there is an echo Yes there is an echo

For those who have not read my posts all season, we should be lining up with a 4-2-3-1 formation. We were playing a 4-2-3-1 after our substitutions, did it work? The problem is that we don't have the right striker to play that role as I said in your other identical thread
Libertine Dream Posted 23 December 2012 Posted 23 December 2012 Didnt play a 4231 at Watford, too much like a 451. Its stupid saying NP should be sacked but there are clear faults, for a start Knocky is wasted out wide. Weve put pressure on ourselve, cant really afford to lose either of the next two and need a win, 12 points from 10 games is poor
cc_star Posted 23 December 2012 Posted 23 December 2012 You at it again, same thread? Owners arent fans - they're here to make money & having lived well beyond our means since they came here building up £60m mortgage in our name, they're finally showing some sense & playing the long game, bringing a manager in because of his specific skill set of being able to sign young players for less money & on lower wages & won't be hemorrhaging money to leaching agents. Pretty sure that's up there in their minds along with getting under FFP with people like Konch on the books & Beckford & Danns under contract along with Wellens & Gally. Finally have a manager who has progressed on the pitch to probably our best first half a season for a decade & is sorting it off the pitch too & still nobbers moan. We're 4pts above Reading were last season at this stage so he's doing a lot right, just need to tweak in Jan & push on. Anyone who wants to write this season off with a managerial change followed by another transitional season next year is a nobber. I would play Knocky central though RDL Morgan CB Schlupp King Drinky Marshall Knocky Dyer Nugent in a 4231 or actually off Nugent in a 4411

Phew.
Mark_w Posted 23 December 2012 Posted 23 December 2012 I love this stat ...... it definitely means we will also have the incredible run that Reading had as well and be promoted. Phew. Of course it doesn't. But it is a stat that shows we shouldn't be too quick to write Pearson off this early (Especially since we're, you know, exceeding expectations).
5waller5 Posted 23 December 2012 Posted 23 December 2012 Of course it doesn't. But it is a stat that shows we shouldn't be too quick to write Pearson off this early (Especially since we're, you know, exceeding expectations). The owners expect promotion. Pearson expects promotion. We are not exceeding that expectation .... we are just inside the play offs.
Mark_w Posted 23 December 2012 Posted 23 December 2012 The owners expect promotion. Pearson expects promotion. We are not exceeding that expectation .... we are just inside the play offs. We are doing better than most fans expected at the start of the season. Feel free to go and find the thread where we all made our predictions about our final league position, I'm sure yours would be very interesting.
dmayne7 Posted 23 December 2012 Posted 23 December 2012 If you're a fan, maybe you'll save us your negativity and leave Foxestalk?
MattyFromLE Posted 23 December 2012 Posted 23 December 2012 Ffffuuuuuuuuuxccvcccckkkkkkkk ooooooffffffffffff!
indierich06 Posted 23 December 2012 Posted 23 December 2012 The owners expect promotion. Pearson expects promotion. We are not exceeding that expectation .... we are just inside the play offs. Well if the expectation is promotion then until we're out of contention for promotion then we're not falling below expectations.

Feel free to go and find the thread where we all made our predictions about our final league position, I'm sure yours would be very interesting. Not sure what i predicted - probably 8-10th. Which is about right i think. That's where we'll end up if Mr P doesn't stop being so stubborn and if he doesn't return to the attacking style he adopted at the start of the season. Fans expectation is pretty irrelevant though ...... it's what the owners expect that counts. And i don't think any of us are kidding ourselves that it's anything less than promotion.

I think they'd be happy with, clear improvement, play-off finish, cutting costs. All of which look on.
5waller5 Posted 23 December 2012 Posted 23 December 2012 I think they'd be happy with, clear improvement, play-off finish, cutting costs. All of which look on. We'll see. My guess is that promotion is the only acceptable outcome to the season.
fleckneymike Posted 23 December 2012 Posted 23 December 2012 I think they'd be happy with, clear improvement, play-off finish, cutting costs. All of which look on. I think you're mistaken. They want promotion. Anything less (irrespective of reduced wage bills) will be viewed as failure and I imagine treated as such.
