:efl: Championship :leicesterfc: Leicester City v Southampton :saints: (Live on :sky_logo:)

Finally the ref puts us out of our misery

67% possession and losing 5-0.

Do you know, I think I might have spotted the problem.

I apologise to the team who played on Saturday who I described as disgusting…you were so much better than this team.

Let’s hear what bollocks he comes out with tonight. If he talks about “brave on the ball” and “should have won it”, then he’s got to go. Shades of Jones if he doesn’t start to get this lot in some kind of order

Sadly, the team don’t appear to have the mental strength to get through the play offs. Don’t think we will have a day out at Wembley.
Mind you if this squad went up and played the way RM wants, we’d get royally arsefucked every week. It wouldn’t be a pleasant watch.

What we’re all forgetting is that if we play possession football, the opposition can’t score. The model is there people …

lol - we would need 99.9% possession to stop them scoring

Note, they’d still score in the 9 seconds they have the ball…

It’s about time someone in the Club called him out on all this crap. Lovely engaging guy but the model is flawed big time. It didn’t even look pretty. Tonight was truly possession for the sake of possession. No penetration, no urgency and no shooting boots. Out of possession we were all over the shop. By the end our legs had proper gone. Only 2 running were Fraser and Edozie. Neither with any sight of goal. Fraser more often than not was played short by Manning and ended up running towards Macca …

Only 1 nil after 60 mins. Then Manning came on. Worked a treat against their most dangerous player

I share the frustration Bucks but I’m not sure that the game was reliant on Manning alone. It was a shit show from kick off. We looked nervous on the ball, reluctant to get forward and like we were playing with strangers. IMHO the subs just disrupted that even further. It managed to make a shit situation even shittier. Unfortunately we’ve got previous about end of season attitudes and this one is no exception

:rofl:

Never mind everyone, it’s nothing to do with possession football and it’s nothing to do with tactics or Russball … it’s those cnuts in the dressing room !

Brutally honest … not for me. Brutally honest would have been littered with plenty of “useless cnuts”, “clueless manager”, “possession for the sake of possession” and “cow’s arse with a banjo”.

On top for 60 minutes … having a fucking laugh. Apart from 5 or 10 minutes after the break, we looked like we’d sent the reserve team.

Honesty would have been “we were fucking useless from the minute we got off the coach at Leeds and realised we should have been in Leicester”
