fox_up_north Posted 26 December 2021 Share Posted 26 December 2021 Refereeing is absolutely dire. Genuinely wonder if the league has unofficially said something like "we get our big money from international audiences who tune in to see the big 6 win" I wouldn't say there's a mandate or a rule that says "give big teams penalties" but I can imagine it's one of those pervasive ideas that creates a culture for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gw_leics772 Posted 26 December 2021 Share Posted 26 December 2021 Reality check. We were expecting a mauling before team sheet came out. Even moreso after, and we're getting one. Where is the surprise/disdain coming from? No point bringing on vardy now, and realistically, from the slim pickings available, would you go stronger for Liverpool at home or man city away? Untwist your knickers people. Realistically, Rodgers has earned a nothing season. Injuries galore. Rodgers fault after almost 3 seasons of no real pre season. Get a ****ing grip people and just enjoy the football. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have injuries for sure but why does it seem that it's only us that embarras ourselves to this extent when weakened? Because the manager hasn't got a clue about defending. He doesn't value being sturdy or hard to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking the result away, we’re being battered and they’re continuing to make piss poor decisions and give Man City the advantage….. Someone get Ted Hastings on the case. The only one i can think of that was a "poor decision" is the yellow card for Vestergaard. The others I think have been ok. Can't really complain about the Ref today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coolhandfox Posted 26 December 2021 Share Posted 26 December 2021 9 minutes ago, TJB-fox said: Hardly relevant what side I would’ve picked because I’m not one of the highest paid managers in the world who works week in week out with these players. As stated, frustrations have come due to poor performances over a LONG period of time. Nobody is saying Rodgers should go because we’re losing away at Man City, that shouldn’t be too hard to understand. If I had to pick a side I would’ve gone 5 at the back, probably starting the young lad Nelson. Midfield you can pick Tielemans and then whoever out of the rest of the clowns in the Middle. Get some support over to Albrighton who every time has played RB for us has been destroyed by the opposition winger. Then, if going two or three down I would’ve actually tried to change things and plug gaps. The state our football club is in playing and managing staff at the moment is really really poor. Something needs to change I get the frustrations and why you are fed up with it. Something does need to change. But moaning about today is a waste of time, injury ravaged squad, post a COVID outbreak was always going to a total clusterf**k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to get more biased towards the greedy 6 with every passing season. VAR just doubles it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dylanlegend Posted 26 December 2021 Share Posted 26 December 2021 What’s the point in playing Vestergaard? Whoever signed him needs sacking. Better off playing the kids 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philkeavo Posted 26 December 2021 Share Posted 26 December 2021 There has been a lot talk about which players would you pick and I get that but really its about how the team is set up and what roles they have been given. Our defensive play has been nothing short of disastrous. Players not tracking back, marking, running or just basic stuff like competing. Take Festergaard for example I’ve seen oil tankers turn quicker than him, he was so so slow to close down Jota on Wednesday and today he was again ambling when De Bruyne took the ball down and given all the space in the world to give Man City the lead. This sort of horrendous play sets the tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking for an argument just curiosity. He persist in trying to.play a game that our players cannot. His persistence is crazy.

NaijaFox Posted 26 December 2021 Share Posted 26 December 2021 With only two days between this game and the Liverpool game,(which I very much doubt will go forward) ... I think Vardy, Ndidi and Castagne have been held out for the Liverpool game, which we would have a better chance of getting a result. We essentially sacrificed this game for both Liverpool games... Then proceeded to royally cock up the Liverpool cup game, with some befuddling coaching decisions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
