HighPeakFox Posted 18 August 2023 Share Posted 18 August 2023 44 minutes ago, Lionator said: Such an absolutely insane arrogant take, if serious. Over a 46 game season you will lose a game because surprises happen in football. We were for example already 10 minutes away from losing against Coventry. Stay grounded, stay humble and support the team with realistic expectations because at several times throughout the season it’ll get turgid and like running through treacle. Expecting us to go unbeaten is just embarrassing. He's just setting himself up for a massive whine when the team lets him down. This guy is a pro.

I could understand this take if we'd won both are games by 5 or 6 goals, we don't look clinical in front of goal, we don't create a lot of chances, and the defence doesn't exactly look solid. I expect a game as frustrating as the 1-0 Southampton loss in March to come within the next 1-2 months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoring goals has always been my worry and still is. We've only just squeezed past both Cov and Huddersfield, both of which had good chances against us too. We were far to good for League 1 but still got beat. Going unbeaten, at any level, is so tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ealingfox Posted 18 August 2023 Share Posted 18 August 2023 We'll lose plenty of games. I'm still some way off being convinced we're a good bet to finish top 6, let alone win the league. You just can't tell very much off of 2 games. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are far from a shoe-in for anything, what I would say though is that not reaching the top 6 will be an abject failure whichever way you cut it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicesterpool Posted 18 August 2023 Share Posted 18 August 2023 Would anyone back a change to the play off system in the championship, I always think the national league play off system is a lot better. An extra spot is given and 2nd and 3rd are given extra advantage by going straight to the semi final round and instead of 2 legs there's just one.

No team has EVER gone unbeaten in the second tier's 130 year history, including record-breaking Reading in 2006. We're still gelling, could easily have lost against Coventry and probably would have done away from home with their home crowd in what is their biggest fixture of the season and will absolutely have off-days that teams will exploit. If we lose fewer than 10 games, it's been a good season and we go up. But nobody will ever go unbeaten in this division. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's ridiculous. We're going to lose games, make no mistake about that. I'm not that convinced by our performances so far, we've had quite a bit of luck I think. But with a few new signings we should be up there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winteriscoming Posted 18 August 2023 Share Posted 18 August 2023 I still think that any side with a quick forward will have a field day against us. We have 2 of the slowest cbs in the division and they’ll get exposed with this high line we’re playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we only lose a few I bet I could still pick em out... Ipswich away on Boxing day... dead cert Milwall away... bet you Plymouth away... that'll be two losses in a row just as we're trying to secure the title 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparrowhawk Posted 18 August 2023 Share Posted 18 August 2023 7 hours ago, Asha said: I reckon we go unbeaten. Is this your first season? That's the only way this statement could be forgiven. Firstly, going unbeaten is almost impossible. Secondly, even if they thought it could happen, no sane football fan would say so for fear of jinxing it. Me, I'm greatly encouraged by things so far, and I'm wildly optimistic for this season. But I'm also a seasoned Leicester fan, so all I'll say at this stage is I reckon we have a good chance of finishing top half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beachyboy Posted 18 August 2023 Share Posted 18 August 2023 One thing Enzo has done is lifted the mood, last season we'd of been lucky to get 1 point out of those 2 league performances. For 2 main reasons the standard being higher, an the general negative vibe around the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
