Lets be honest the style we play really doesn't help .

 

Id like us to play with a bit more intent from the first minute.

 

We spent the first 40 minutes playing walking football today.

It's more the players than the style. 3 of our 4 mids are defensive or ball winning players not especially creative. Nacho seems determined to play as an 8 not a 9 (hence he got hooked after 50 mins) Getting Fatawu, Vardy, Yunus  etc on whose first idea is to go forward helps massively.

 

We've won 14 out of 17 games. Sometimes the play is slow, sometimes it's frustrating but we've had this most of the season. Teams parking the bus and us finding a way through. I know one thing, I prefer this to conceding each week from set pieces, disillusioned players and losing week in week out.

I really don’t understand why you and so many others give up money and precious weekend time to go to something you’ve already decided will bore you. Bonkers 

They just like to moan and say I told you so. I have never watched Leicester in 62 years to be entertained, I go to watch us win. If we get entertained that is a bonus. 
 

People go on about the MON years but we were served plenty of dross in his day. We won the league cup against Tranmere with a simply atrocious performance against a well inferior team, but we won end of. 
 

We’ve always had plenty of boring matches over the years, if you want gung ho football you are currently watching the wrong team. 
 

I’m in SK2 and don’t have too much time for SK1 bearing in mind their anti over 60’s stance, but to be fair they did put in a shift today. I don’t normally hear them, but they were audible today.

 

This season, I know it’s not an easy watch at times, but if you’re going to go just to moan when you know what’s coming, just don’t bother. Better off without you,

I do! Yesterday was poor and they were off, but in general I enjoy it 

Comparing it to Rodgers is just wrong, we actually have a plan now and players clearly are playing for the manager. Oh and we seem to be winning most games.

I'm sure folk would be singing if we played open fast paced football and were sat in the bottom half. Half the reason it's as pedestrian as it is, is because apart from a handful of sides that visit, most will sit behind the ball.

Yeah exactly, look at Southampton away when they came at us.

A complete fabrication. 

 

How old were you when you came to Bochum with us :)

This also football in the 21st century. Its methodical. Enzo literally wrote a thesis ffs, like he sees the sport through a different set of eyes than most supporters. If you can’t get involved when your team are flying at the top of the league then when will you ever?

strange one yesterday, north stand was quiet with just pockets of people singing. couldn't hear a single thing from the kop. L1 was non-existent.

 

not sure what people are moaning about RE people leaving early. i looked round on the 89th minute and hardly anyone had gone or was leaving 

 

their fans were shite as well, fair few weirdos amongst them 

 

I thoroughly enjoyed it though, despite it being frustrating at times missing chances

L1 is genuinely disgraceful now compared to what it was 

yesterday was the longest I’ve seen are fans stay for up until the 90th minute but normally the stadium is half empty by 85

Top of the league, winning with ease... and still the excuses come. Just admit you don't want to sing and be done with it.

It's the same in the singing section.

 

15 blokes going mental and the rest just stood there.

 

Not sure why you'd move your seat to that corner if you're not up for singing.

I like our style when we're going for it, a lot of the time this season we've been going at teams fast paced, but first half yesterday was slow and everything went back. It's okay to criticise and say we were poor, despite being top of the league, no team in the World are perfect every game.

 

Atmosphere was poor though. Family Stand looked empty on about 80 mins as well.

As soon as the board went up for stoppage time, people in their masses stood up and left. Felt for the players who persevered until the end to get us that win and other can’t be bothered to stay and applaud on a Saturday (I can understand to some degree tighter schedule for a midweek game). Thought the Watford fans were okay considering they were Watford fans.
