Blackburn 2-1 loss post match

[Tuna]

Why no subs at half time?

Too late at 2-0.

 

Useless reactive manager.

 

Southgate lite.

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

Hard to see where we go from here. Other than quite possibly down. No confidence, no real fight, a considerable number of busted flushes in the squad, piss poor tactics and subs, clueless game management on and off the field, and a chairman who seems oblivious to it all. 

[Winchesterfox]

Outplayed, outthought and outfought by a lower league team at home.  Doesn't come as a surprise sadly.

That's all on Rodgers.

 

Too much went wrong that he's in control of for it to just be unlucky or a typical cup shock. 

 

The absolute least you expect is to look like you want to win it.

I really don’t like Rodgers but matches like tonight aren’t all on him. 
 

He’s set the team out (probably the wrong team) & they’ve not been aggressive enough from the start - you can blame him for that. 
 

You can’t blame him for the complete brain farts that Amartey & Iversen have put together.

"Now we can concentrate on the league"

[Lcfc-1992]

We’re so easy to play against, press us and we’re not good enough to play through it or sit back and we’re not good enough to play through it.

Said in the thread that’ll be enough to keep him in a job, despite being battered for most of the game a spirited last 20 mins will keep him here even though we lost 

When are people going to get it?

 

We could have lost 7-0 tonight, he’s not going anywhere until at least the summer and that’s if we’re lucky.

[Buggsteam]

Rodgers moaning at not being backed and used that as our excuse. 
He’s been backed now and we are playing worse then ever. 
No hunger or desire from any of them. 
 

How is Sourmare, Armetey, Thomas getting anywhere near the first team. Just not good enough. 
 

We are going down while we have this clown in charge. He has sucked the life out of this club.

Southgate is at least a likeable human being

[HesNotGudjonsonn2]

No coincidence that the commentators mention that Barnes suddenly became more of a threat after Thomas has left the pitch.

 

Where is the fire before they enter the pitch?

[Phenom]

This cvnt has to go.

[RowlattsFox]

It's the lack of anger that annoys me most I think. By anyone. 

[Unabomber]

That Mendy shot was good though from the corner

Some say Rodgers is still clapping on the touch line

Gotta celebrate his 4 years with the club.

At 2-0 I haven’t been angrier at a Leicester team for quite a long time. Rogers needs to be sacked immediately. Not the end of the season.  Now.  The fact Soumare lasted as long as he did tonight is a disgrace.  No changes at half time after that absolute shit show first half.  
 

Thanks for the FA Cup win but now get the **** out of this club.  

Spot-on 

[CosbehFox]

First of all. Well done Blackburn cos they have a manager there that clearly does his home work and can clearly knit a team together. That’s with at least four of their first choice XI missing. 
 

That’s me done with Rodgers regardless of what happens between now and the end of the season.
 

He’s just threw away one bit of excitement in the season. Tonight was a perfect example where he’s so rigid in tactics and then makes a change which completely blunts us with twenty to go. 
 

It’s the repeated errors time and time again. 
 

If we don’t win six games, it’s our poorest season at this level since Pearson brought us. Now when you compare the squads on paper now, that’s eye watering bad

Ultimately meant nothing with Thomas and Amartey **** ups, though it was comical  

 

I thought it epitomised Soumare's approach. 

 

I don't think I'm alone.

 

Him doing that, then, in between strolling about, passing to opponents and watching opponents run past him, was a symbol of the malaise.

[Edingleyfox]

Could and probably should have been worse. Pretty much second best in every challenge. Improved when Iheanacho Mendy etc came on but the damage was already done.

Of course, because the players definitely choose to play dangerous football in their own third.

 

Its definitely not been a consistent pattern in our play for 2 years

We would have won that if we started our strongest team.

 

That's on the manager. He should already know that Thomas, Soumare and Amartey are shit.

It's gone on too long to blame individual performances. He picks the team, "motivates" the side, sorts the tactics. Tonight is completely on him

He litterally selects the players when even ****ing Doris from the corner shop knows they are not good enough.

 

He is 100% the blame.

 

Get a new manager in and we are  a million times better team

He's only managed Amartey for 4 years, so yeah can't blame him for not knowing what he's like.

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Soumare lumbering around the pitch offers absolutely nothing

TEN minutes before we scored?

Perhaps it should have read utterly shameful after being just shameful, the 10 mins before they had so many free shots we looked as though we had totally 100% downed tools
