  1. Up and down sides of today really for me. 

     

    Corners continue to be a joke. I wouldn't blame Ward for it (not always Kaspers fault but he hasn't helped at times), the desire or lack of, to clear the ball and win the ball is non existent. Second balls are just as bad too. Lack of concentration and aggression is just poor. They hit the bar with another corner straight after too, we could have been two down.

     

    Ward made a top class save also from a flick heading in the corner. Again could have been further down. 

     

    Watford defensively were poor but we can only do what we did today and put a few past which has pleased me. 

     

    The whole game has really summed our season on the whole, showed our weaknesses and what we're capable when firing. Also shows how we miss a fully fit Vardy.

     

    I would like to finish in 8th now, let's not argue it papers over the cracks or that the season has been good enough but a bit of momentum for next season will always be good. 

     

    Maddison man of the match I think today too. 

  2. Forest should have killed it off although Sheffield U did have chances too. 

     

    Never know in the playoffs it's not over, they are just mental. I think they are the best football games to watch every season for excitement as neutrals, them and the latter stages of CL anyway. 

     

    Early goal for Sheffield in second leg and they suddenly have all the momentum. Forest will be favourites but by no means is it over

  3. I don't care about people leaving a bit before the end, more so midweek games. I do it the odd time when I have an hours drive home (without traffic) and have to be awake at 4am for work the next day. 

     

    As others have said, what annoys me is people who come late all the time, then they're first to be up at 35 mins, then return on 50 mins then go again on 85 mins. They miss so much of the game, why on earth bother coming. 

     

    And people who stand in the concourse entrances watching the game are annoying. Stewards should be getting them to move. 

     

    Also turn the TV's off downstairs too, don't think that helps people knowing can watch last few mins there

  4. More annoyed than Sunday really considering that was out strongest available side. 

     

    Everton were dog shite. Absolutely embarrassing and them celebrating like they just had an Agueroooo moment sums it up. Really wanted to put a nail in their coffin. 

     

    We do not kill games or get the final ball right. Should easily have killed them off with a second, but didn't really threaten Pickford. The final ball for months now has been a real concern for me.

     

    I thought we controlled the game generally well and looked comfortable. 

     

    Didn't get the Amartey sub, Mendy had a good game.

     

    Nacho had one of his poorer games, Daka brought nothing when he came on. 

     

    Barnes is getting worse, I know he scored but did he do anything else all game? I'd hope the goal gave him confidence but didn't seem to. 

     

    So annoying throwing all these points away against shite teams. If it wasn't for the Conference I'd be much more pissed off

  5. I'm more annoyed about the performance in the second half. The amount of players out of form I think is worrying. Tielemans looks absolutely awful, shouldn't be on the pitch. Daka looks so short of confidence, can't even remember him even looking remotely dangerous today. Barnes has had a ****ing shit season, he should be getting called out for it more than he does. Subbed off at HT midweek then came on today and just looks for a backwards pass. 

     

    Newcastle were shite, we gifted them that game. I'm not against keeping Amartey as a squad player but he's a bit of a liability, Soyuncu is no better. 

     

    I hope we go more full strength on Wednesday, feel like we will lose again if we play that side.

  6. Credit to the boys. 

     

    I slagged Rodgers off massively for the Ian sub, still not sure why he came off but Perez had his best game in a LCFC shirt so I can't complain. 

     

    Have to start Lookman from the start over Barnes tho. He's so out of form it's unbelievable. 

     

    Psv weren't a top side though, we made hard work of it but we're through and that's all that matters! 

     

     

  7. Should have won. Didn't threaten their keeper at all. 

     

    Iheanacho was the best player on the pitch for me, and he gets taken off.....odd but even more odd was bringing Lookman on for him. Then to bring on Daka shortly after. Bizarre. 

     

    Barnes was again woeful. How many bad performances does he have to have to get some criticism? Rodgers not taking him off, again baffling. 

     

    Kdh was good again. 

     

    Wil be tough next week, very difficult to go and win there but we're capable.

  8. A draw was probably just about fair but I thought we edged it. They should have had a red and that Var decision doesn't go that way if the tables were turned imo. Marriner is a shit ref. 

     

    Our final ball still lacks a little bit for me though. We play some good stuff but lack the final edge. De Gea only did that one good save from Fofana, did he do anything else notable? 

     

    Shame tho as we looked decent going forward and I'm enjoying how we're playing a bit more now. 

     

    Some comments on players....Evans is a class act, and Fofana looks superb. Says it all that Amartey is considered better than Soyuncu. 

     

    I thought Barnes was ****ing awful. He needs to be called out more often than he is. Never ever known a player like him in terms of contrasting performances. 

     

    Iheanacho probably should have scored another one but for me his target man play has improved so much. His linking up and setting up moves is superb and for me he is now so capable of playing on his own which he lacked before. 

     

    Maddison was very good, his form has been consistent and looks back to his best. 

     

    If Brendan hasn't already, I really hope he apologised massively to Mendy. Him not being named in the 25 man squad was an aberration frankly. He's a very good player, I didn't think about Ndidi once today. He's got a lot of qualities and some are much better than Ndidi. It's a shame if he does go at the end of the season, as I'd happily keep him and have him starting.

  9. Actually pleased and think it's a good thing that we had to battle and fight, show desire, show determination. I think that is actually better for us than say winning 0-2 tonight long term. 

     

    Gets us experience at winning ugly, sticking up for each other and giving it all for the team. 

     

    Edge of the seat stuff that was.
