Napoli, A Match Thread

[Jonezy]

Well its entertaining. 

 

Our defensive organisation though. Holy moly. Its the definition of tragic comedy.

[Jimmy]

can't see Youri lasting more then an hour, would imagine it will be Albrighton that comes on with Madders going central

[cruzFOX]

Contrary to our wiser assumptions and seeing how bad some of our defenders have been all season even if JJ and lil Wes aren't 100% coming back they will be hell of a lot better than what we've seen so far. I'm being cautiously optimistic but its based on how dreadful we've been defending its literally school boy errors week in week out. That should not happen at the elite premier league level.

Think Bertrand off at HT, ideally Ricky on but is he injured?

 

Decent comeback but god our defence can't hold a line. Cags and especially Bertrand been poor.

I don't think Ricky travelled. He's not on the bench anyway.

Yes, why? Point is both teams are about the same in quality. Who runs hardest will win the game 

 

step aside, everyone! It’s cliché man!

He is indeed, and should be subbed on for Bertrand.

[Philkeavo]

There is no way to sugar coat this but we are absolute mess of a team. Somehow by luck or due to Napoli’s seriously weakened team, we may contrive to get through to the group stage but lets not fool ourselves we are simply terrible and limping along blindly and without any direction at the moment.

When has Maddison ever played as an 8? No chance this happens 

[RowlattsFox]

We will see who is keen to win it in the second half, both going for the win to top the group. They will probably just let us push for win and pick us off.

oh my gosh did you really just say that?

He's suggesting that both teams are playing like they don't care but have the quality to step up and win. 😉

Is it the insight, or the use of 'what team' that has left you in awe? 

 

 

the clichè.

Eh? Do you not remember Maddison and Youri playing as a pair of 8s a season or so ago? Coincided with some of our best form under Rodgers?

thanks for clearing that up 

[Haywood_6]

Bertrand is shit. I'd take fuchs at 40 years old over him

[HighPeakFox]

The pass across the box for their first goal was a total fluke. 

[CloudFox]

Oh my god, Bertrand appealing for offside there. What? 😂

[FoxesWalk]

Swear she just said “Leicester’s longest stretch without a clean sheet, 16 years” 

 

Feels like it. 

[jonny_wright]

Genuinely think Bertrand is the worst player or the Top era 

[Sunbury Fox]

Good job we don't play Liverpool twice and Man City in consecutive games over Xmas with this defence. Oh....

[gerblod]

Bertrand not even approaching the necessary level. Slow to react, lackadaisical - a token defender at best.

[Bob Weasel Fox]

Bertrand has been awful
