Not sure if I’m going off football or just in a current depressive state.

 

This team under Rodgers gives me no enjoyment anymore, I never feel motivated to watch us nowadays than I used to.

 

The constant naivety, negativity, watching this team struggle to keep hold of the ball, inviting pressure on ourselves. 
 

It’s a never ending cycle we can’t seem to stamp out, I apologise for the depressive post, but this is how I’ve felt for a while now.

With you on this. I've given up with LCFC for the moment, I still keep up with the news but I'm past caring about us atm. No effort, no passion, nobody gives a Sh*t. Why should I?

And of course Danny Welbeck gets his obligatory goal against us.

Exactly why the **** are Brighton ahead of us in the table.

Beause they have lost 1 game in the last 11, including draws at Anfield and Stamford Bridge. They are no mugs. Reality check, we are not the only 'smaller' team who has the right to do well.

So many self entitled supporters on this forum think we just win because we are Leicester and they are Brighton....doesn't wash....so many players in their team walk into our starting XI at present.....people really need to get a grip and remember we are in the midst of an injury crisis.....it hasn't gone away and its not going away any time soon.

This is fair enough, but first half we were on top. Barnes was poor so to sub him was right. But once we changed formation, we were awful and it let Brighton get back into it. We needed to carry on and get the 2nd. I've given BR the benefit of doubt in the past but this one is on him.

The subs killed us. Dominated them for 60 minutes. Didn’t need to go to a back 5. Had no outlet once we did that and just kept hoofing it towards their centre halves. 

Dominated them? Really?

[Tommy Fresh]

Weird to try and sit on a slender lead for so long with how poor defensively we've been this season. I'm not even annoyed by it anymore, solely because it's so commom for Rodgers to s*** the bed.

In fairness, first half was much better than the second. 

It would be nigh on impossible to be worse than the second half

[Jattdogg]

Is it more so that BR has peaked as opposed to our squad?  I know we are missing players which will never help but not sure what to think any more.

 

Write off of a season though. Let's focus on safety and forget about it because clearly we aren't doing anything else. 

 

It is a shame that we even have to talk about safety at this point, that's how far we have fallen IMO.  We got liverpool, west ham and wolves next (plus other games and whatever else gets rescheduled ). I don't fancy us winning any of those right now.

 

We need to wake up and realize we are better than the table shows.

No mate - p#ss off with your facts - that’s not the narrative on here ….

[Kierzz]

Out thought tactically by Potter in the second half.

 

Fees like we were lucky to get a point after that second half.... and that really says it all.

[Mike Oxlong]

Clean sheets please. Brendan shat the bed again

We were definitely on top of them but WE surrendered our game out of nowhere. We rolled over and let them tickle our bellies when there was absolutely no reason to do so.

I agree to a certain extent but today was a result of our own doing than Brighton.  We stopped working hard and the formation change is why we didn't win the game.

You ok letting Brighton overtake us then? Wow we really have 'Peaked' as Brenden would put it. 

I'm realistic. The midtable sides are always getting better (see West Ham, Brighton, perhaps Villa and Palace over the next few years). Wolves and Everton when they're on it should be in and around us too. Yes it should be our ambition to head those sort of sides but we have no right to expect to finish top of that pile and be in uproar when it appears we won't be doing so. Especially this season with our injury crisis. 

 

In direct response to your question, as far as I'm aware the season didn't finish today. If we finish with 50ish points and they still finish ahead of us then kudos to them.

Brighton were getting back into it before the formation change

[foxfanazer]

Need a break from us. It's been a while since I've enjoyed a season as little as I have this one

No chance we are getting 50 points, more like 40.

Leicester: are really crap for almost a year now

 

Supporters who see that we’re crap: ‘god, we’re crap at the moment aren’t we?’ 
 

Brendan fanboys: god how entitled are some people !!!!!!!!

rinse and repeat 

 

[fox in the sox]

Good and bad. A decent point against a team higher in the table with the ongoing injury situation... but couldn’t agree with going 5 at the back, it was fairly even before that, there is no point us trying to hold on to a 1-0 win at the moment.

Brighton are a good team, but very few of their players would walk into our squad. Of their team today I would say Trossard would maybe get in and Lamptey. The difference is they have a manager who is getting the absolute most out of each individual and as a unit. Whereas we are getting the absolute worst out of our own bar a few sporadic performances by individuals, then it's back to shite the following week. 

We should be comfortably beating Brighton even with injuries. An on form Leicester hammers on form Brighton. Problem is we haven't had any form since the middle of last season.

40 will keep us up, that’s all we can hope for with the dreadful occurrences of this season.

So easy relegation form for the remaining half of the season? Based of what? We've steadily picked up points all season without being in form or horribly out of it.
