Leicester – 14pts dropped 8 leads, 3 wins, 1 draw, 4 defeats Christ that’s ugly. Especially when you remember Leicester are also one of only two sides yet to register a single point after falling behind. Basically, if Leicester go behind they lose and if Leicester go ahead they still generally lose. Brendan, mate, come on. Sort it out. You should not and cannot go around Our League with only a 50-50 chance of avoiding defeat in games where you go in front. You absolutely cannot be going in front in games and then losing 5-2 and 6-2, as the not-so-crafty Foxes have already contrived to do this season at Brighton and Spurs. Leicester having led precisely the same number of Premier League games this season as Newcastle feels like a madness. Horrible deja vu with our 2004 side too. That side took the lead so many times but didn't seem to make any difference! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full of players who peaked or were trying rebuild their careers. The quality they had showed when they all clicked at times but fine margins, bad luck and being ridiculously awful at seeing out games were our undoing. Difference between that squad and our current one is that we are much better on paper now than a lot of the dross around us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure the fact that the average age of our squad was about 33, which was the average amount of pints drank per player was probably something to do with us not having the legs to see out games We did have some talented players though. I'm still convinced Les Ferdinand jump about 6 feet in the air to head in a goal against Southampton on the opening day of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the way he was laughing and joking with the Chelsea players when they knocked us out of the FA Cup in lockdown pissed a lot of people off. I've got no problem with him, or many others. As I've said before, players who have moved on must have excelled for us to get moves to those teams. Chilwell and Kante have won the Champions League, Mahrez has won everything but the Champions League, although he played in a final and Maguire has captained one of the biggest clubs in the world. They've all justified their moves. Fofana is slightly different though. As was Drinkwater, for different reasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fox_up_north Posted 2 November 2022 Share Posted 2 November 2022 Yeah, I've no issue with any of them. Kante and Mahrez will always have my respect. Maguire...just sort of feel bad for him now. Fofana, though... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely Shaw or Trippier will play there. Although Reece James is doubtful, isn't he? And Alexander-Arnold seems about as popular with Southgate as Maddison is. So maybe. Justin can play both sides, which is advantageous to him. I guess John Stones would also be an option at right back, though, as would Ben White, they've both impressed there for their clubs recently when needed.

He’s probably been named in the 55. He was in an England squad in June and can play both sides. With full backs dropping like flies he might find himself in there as Gareth will take about 7/8 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chilwell is a great player offensively, so much energy and has been wracking up goals & assists at Chelsea when seldom fit. He downed tools here though, it was clear around January after we'd been dicked by Liverpool(+ a ref) & Man City, where we started to fall away from the top 4 he just gave up, probably knowing his move was secured that upcoming summer, disappeared "injured" and when he did play was abject. Laughing with his soon to be new teammates after knocking us out of the FA Cup was icing on the cake. We got a decent chunk of money though, he played & paid his part here ultimately, for 3 seasons. Just might've wanted to show more commitment towards the end. The 2021 FA Cup drama buries alot of it though, we can laugh at him abit instead of being miffed. Chilwell isn't perfect defensively but I think his engine is incredible, so much energy. Now adds goals and assists. Just lapse defensively and can be wasteful on off-days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Chilwell, but the bloke told the story himself that he was telling other players at Leicester how excited he was at possibly playing with Silva the following season. All whilst we were pissing away our chance at top four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
