Thought bielsa was the best thing since sliced bread…according to the media anyway 

Even sliced bread can turn stale and mouldy.

Yes, it's a different scale because we're Leicester fans. A bit of whataboutery doesn't take away from how poor we have been this season.

so we should judge ourselves as if we have fallen below the standards of prime Barcelona but judge every other team on their relation to whether they are above or below us?

No, we should judge ourselves on the fact we have been utter crap. I don't care about other teams.

Reality is we are not a million miles from these 2 teams and probably another 5 above us and that’s with most of them at full strength and us not

It did. Chris Kavanagh thought there was an offside in the buildup. PL later clarified there wasn't. 

 

He's a shocking official. Made so many mistakes. 

Mike Deane has the easiest me-me-me personality to hate, now Clattenburg is gone.  But Kavanaugh is the worst of the lot IMO.  The quality of his decisions is shocking.

 

The PL pays these guys; they should review every game, grade every call, and fire and replace the worst 10% at the end of each season.  There's got to be Championship refs, and female refs like Stephanie Frappart who are far better than the worst (or most?) in the PL.

 

PGMoL would want no part of that, but I think that's a battle the League could win if they had the balls to fight it.  It would be harder to bust the union monopoly by appointing independent refs on VAR, but the PL would benefit from that as well.

Think West Ham v Wolves is showing how poor the league is this year from anywhere below 3rd.

 

We could have taken 6 points from those two games and look far prettier than we do now, similarly a loss at Burnley and we look in trouble. Only takes a few back to back wins to rocket up the table, just look at Newcastle.

Commentators don't help. Must've mentioned a recent Arsenal match at least 20 times. Why?

True the ‘big 6’ bias across all platforms is infuriating. Listening to tifo podcast the other week they suggested that the reason our defence has struggled is because vestegaard has been injured 🥴

It's not that the league is poor, it's that good, well organised teams are able to get into strong positions.

 

West Ham and Wolves are good but not amazing teams. But presently they've got something we haven't; be it good management, good organisation, better mentality or whatever.

No... The reality is we are closer to Norwich than we are Wolves. Fact. 

 

You can talk about how Turgid they and West Ham are but the simple fact is that they are in 6th and 8th and we are not so even if you care how bad they've been (most don't) it's is very obvious that we have been worse so drawing a comparison is completely irrelevant.

Commentator: "Trincao, his only goal for Wolves coming in a League Cup tie against Nottingham Forest."

 

Remember when half of FoxesTalk was rubbing one out over the prospect of signing him?

Him being able to score in the cup against Forest might've helped us... :ph34r:

Its called a Right Wing feeding frenzy. If we had signed him and Madueke we would still have conceded forty odd goals.
