yeah true that or maybe he read the fa cup thread when i said i loved him that time and he just thought he'd give some love back 

Yeah tbf I said he has a really nice voice.

Played well, deserved to win, we were the better team but if you make silly mistakes to concede and don't take your chances it'll cost you.

Silly individual mistakes again.

We're getting left adrift now too, 5 points the gap.

....anyone still think the Palace game was not "must win"? :dunno:

I've said it for a while but I think we're down, we will not make that gap up.

Kramaric looked classy. Can't help think what could have been if we'd started him agaisnt Stoke and Palace. And if we'd signed a quality centre back like Huth in the summer.

 

 

The trouble is if this performance had came 3 months ago, you coudl take the positives. But we really, really need points now.

Dno if anyones just heard Wengers post-match but he basically said its a joke were bottom and that if the boo-boys stop wanking over pictures of Sven and/or Pulis and get behind Pearson we'll stay up comfortably.

Yes, the reason we are bottom of the league and certainties for relegation is because of the fans are not getting behind Pearson.  It has nothing to do with anything he has done.

I don't mind losing games against teams like Arsenal, but why can't we replicate these kind of performances against the shite around us? We would have beaten Palace playing like that. We've been good against the big boys this season, but that's not what will see us relegated.

As has been said, Cambiasso, Mahrez and Kramaric all great and our general set up and approach was spot on for the occasion. If Mahrez could just sort out his finishing!

 

 

Thought Konchesky was brilliant tonight, and i'm one of his biggest critics.

 

His crossing has been decent all season, but the cover from Upson meant he could utilise it a bit more today. Was unlucky not to get an assist with that ball in towards Schlupp.

or it could be Everton next

Thought it was a foul on Konch for their first. People blaming Schwarzer for their second goal are utterly clueless. Rocket, shot, ball moving (and had a good lubrication from the pitch-watering); if he tries to catch that he could quite easily palm it into his own net or miss it altogether. The first time finish from Walcott was one only a few in the league could execute so perfectly as well. Why you'd want to have yet another keeper change I don't know.

Bottom line is we were the better side for big portions of the game today and deserved at least a point, arguably all 3. Really proud of the team today. Kramaric had his best game in a Leicester shirt so far and he seemed to develop a great understanding with Cambiasso who was also class.

One major criticism for me, especially in relation to the goals, was the constant backing off around our area. Lead to the corner we conceded from, and allowed the shot from which Walcott scored the rebound. Simpson was especially guilty of this and needs to be more decisive and force the hand of the man with the the ball.

A performance that sadly won't be repeated against Everton.

Papering over the cracks.

I do get jealous of you time traveling fans. You go to the future, watch the game and then come back and tell those of us without the ability what's gonna happen.

Because different teams bring different threats.

Also people saying why cant we play like this against other teams. Didnt we do pretty much the same against Palace?

 

yeah and villa to name another in the last month.

Good performance for me. Drop Morgan for the home games and play with Huth and Was at the back. Bring back Hamer.

Too many individual errors are costing us.

THIS - shame Nigel can't see the wood for the trees, in terms of those two.

Quick passing football was on show, as last season.

I can't help thinking negative approaches in winnable games going back to October took away our forward thinking momentum after the Man U win.

Tonight a sample of what could have been with the intensity we showed tonight.

Too late though Nige. You should have been geeing them up before we were as good as down

We do this most weeks. Played well v Man City, created chances at West Ham, battered Spurs in the second half at home, should've put several past Villa, created clear cut chances against Palace.

Gap now looks daunting but think 5 wins and a couple of draws could do it. We're well within the realms of needing favours from other teams now but got to concentrate on our own performance. Worst case should be going down fighting.

Posted

Said before we should go 3 at back...makes sense.. great that Kram scored...plenty of reasons for optimism, tho it may be too late. Shades of 69, relegation & cup final in same season. Only, if that's the case, let's win it this time.

Keep the faith!

We lost against palace and we still ain't down, how was it must win? That term really bugs me. When we NEED to win to stay up it becomes must win, not before then.

Because we're getting left adrift. Of course it doesn't matter where your wins come from but who do we stand more chance of beating. Top clubs? Or the lesser (no disrespect to palace) clubs?

Good performance away at Arsenal. I'm particularly pleased for AKr but let's not get carried away. We lost and the stats do provide an accurate reflection of the game.
