Dames Posted 17 April 2022 Share Posted 17 April 2022 He’s clearly now hinging the whole season on the Conference League and should be judged on that. A similar performance vs Roma and he should rightly get roasted for it. Not saying we should beat Roma, we are capable but the minimum requirement is having a go. Especially sacrificing league games the way we are. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't even mind the rotation, it was the attitude we approached the game with, just absolutely reeked of having no ambition to go and take 3 points that were there to be taken. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't really blame the players on this one. ...decision making today was just braindead!!! The manager may ask for a style of play or the way he sets up, but within the framework you can make decisions. We made far too many poor decisions to have got anything out of this game, we were poor all round. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza M Posted 17 April 2022 Share Posted 17 April 2022 Would it have really hurt in this match if he went all guns blazing 2nd half today? We lost anyway against a team that were very poor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honeybradger Posted 17 April 2022 Share Posted 17 April 2022 Our season in the league has been dead for a while despite the recent run of form. Deadweight game, let's see what happens against roma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox 4 Life Posted 17 April 2022 Share Posted 17 April 2022 (edited) I’m so happy though for the people here, the (Newcastle United) supporters. “You get a great feeling every time you come here. “It is one of the cities and grounds I really enjoy coming to. “It is great for the (Newcastle) supporters because the passion here is incredible. “Eddie (Howe) has come in and made a very good start, made some really good signings.“I think that gives great hope to the (Newcastle) supporters. “I’m pretty sure they’ll look to build on that in the summer. “This is one of the incoming football clubs in Britain. “It is a special place… “A great atmosphere during the game and we are just disappointed with the result…but we say congratulations to Newcastle.” Edited 17 April 2022 by Fox 4 Life 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the big lads will take him with his record of finishing weakly. I think Newcastle is the next step for him, realistically. They're a 'big club' and he absolutely adores that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 17 April 2022 Share Posted 17 April 2022 Said this a few pages back and today was just another example of it. Started well, took the lead and as a direct result we were ultra defensive and on the back foot throughout. I'm convinced had we gone 1 0 down rather than 1 0 up we'd have gone on and won the game. We are so much better when we're playing catch up, he just doesn't seem to be able to cope with going ahead early and managing the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't really blame the players on this one. But you can blame Amartey for playing a stupid ball instead of retaining it. Keep the ball for another extra half a minute and we would have got a draw. Decision making by some of our players is really poor. The one thing Rodgers annoyed me with was coming out and saying that the team was "inexperienced". Amartey is late 20s not 18. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's taken some of your lot from Thursday to Sunday to decide he's crap again and needs to go lol. You're having a bad season. It happens to the best teams and managers. Leicester are no exception to that. For what he's done so far, you should be writing this season off and at least giving him next season to see what's what. If performances and results are the same over a season with a fully fit squad, then you can properly call for his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The upturn in form since players started coming back from injury will be enough to keep him around until early next season at least. Big summer ahead and has to hit the ground running in the new season especially if we spend some money this summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never called for his head, I still think he is the right man, the post was in relation to his over the top praise of Newcastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosbehFox Posted 18 April 2022 Share Posted 18 April 2022 He looked pretty pissed off on the sidelines from the away end. Probably as extreme as I’ve seen him react Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Webbo Posted 18 April 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 18 April 2022 To say we bottled it is pathetic, we didn't lose because of a lack of courage, we were pushing up, trying to win the game. A bottler would have shut up shop. It's just another in the long line of meaningless catch phrases people use on here to try and sound clever. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJB-fox Posted 18 April 2022 Share Posted 18 April 2022 When Brendan said earlier in the year we don’t have enough players willing to concentrate and get the basics right, he was spot on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winteriscoming Posted 18 April 2022 Share Posted 18 April 2022 He’s far too nice especially after a defeat about the opposition. Needs to be nastier. It progresses to the players. Albrighton laughing with lacuzzette start of the second half and we’re 1 down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
