People not doing their job he said. Bet that goes down well in the dressing room. 

He isn’t wrong.

It’s dogshit, so much wrong. Indefensible. 
 

Rodgers can’t hide behind any excuses, he’s had almost everything he could ever want here and we look worse than we did in a lot of 14/15, 16/17 currently; with a much better squad.

 

We’re just so feeble, even if we had a ‘lesser’ manager who just instilled some fight and aggression we’d be a much better team.

 

Next game we need to ditch zonal, bring Ward and Albrighton in for Schmeichel and Lookman then we might be slightly less likely to shit ourselves

Kasper has too much power at this club. And not enough power in his 6 yard box.

Good shot stopper but awful at set pieces and can't kick. Who's going to tell him, Stowell, Rogers. Doesn't look like it. It's almost like they have to impress him rather then the other way round.

BR not doing his job IMO. We should have binned zonal marking weeks ago.

I don’t disagree.

That Rodgers is wrong just to blame the set pieces. That he'd be worried how we crumble in the face of simple aggression and a straightforward upping of tempo from the opponent 

[ForeverandEver]

Sorry I’m late.

Illustrates the point I was trying to make elsewhere in the thread. Players are on cruise mode after winning the cup

He blamed pogba? Lol. What’s he said? I turned off after the whistle. 

Basically he said Pogba’s hairstyle this week was the reason why Soyuncu couldn’t clear the ball.

 

Fair Play.

I couldn't agree more. This alongside our ability to defend set pieces is the absolute core of the problem.

You've got to have some contempt for your fans coming out with garbage statements like that

There’s a reason why there’s a Twitter page called Deluded Brendan.

 

He is exactly that, and we’re starting to see it.

[Wymsey]

Learn from the errors and try and move on from it, as next week is quite a big one.

tell him what exactly? That he has weaknesses?  he can’t really grow a few inches   Any more.   And  it’s really hard to get a GK who had everything. And if they did, they probably wouldn’t come to Leicester..

 

 

you have a shot stopper? Organize the defense to deal with the crosses.   Have someone who’ll pluck everything out the air!  Get some more speed and quickness in your defenders. 

 

The trouble comes when you don’t set up to protect your keepers weaknesses.

We kicked them about the park for 25 fouls…

Being “nice” was hardly the problem. Basic defending was.

A lot of those "fouls" were soft as sh*t. They were masters at going down under the slightest touch.

[Corky]

You cannot keep expecting, even with the quality we have up front, the attacking players to get 2 or 3 goals a game just to get draws.

 

The commentators were laughing at the set-piece concession. It's become a thing now.

About the lack of aggression from us and the level of it from villa, and that it helped tip the balance to them.

 

Tbh we are a team of pussies.

[Parafox]

Yes, but little Wes is injured.... like that's the reason we're defensively s#it. I think it goes all the way down to Toure. Whatever he had, has gone. 

Also, I don't understand the persistence with zonal marking. Hasn't worked from the first game to this one. We can see it, opponents can see it, my mother could see it if she were still with us. Change it!

 

[Vardinio'sCat]

We are basically waiting for Fofana so we can start our season, it is just damage limitation til then.
