Leicester 1-1 Ipswich Post Match Thread

[Kasey Keller]

4 points dropped to these now

[Dr The Singh]

Mckenna with a shit squad, against the most expensive ever championship team, went ofr it and brought on all the attack he could have and gambled, and pushed us back, we changed nothing.

[EnglishOxide]

There's still a lot of work to be done on this squad. Enzo clearly doesn't trust any of the subs we have to improve the performance on the pitch.

 

Ipswich were quality second half rather than us just being shit like so many are making out. 

 

Fair play to them.

To be fair to Ipswich their keeper made some crucial saves tonight.

Genuinely think So’ton walk this league, we are way off them atm.. Ipswich and Leeds inconsistent so we should get 2nd but it’s nowhere near sealed and dealed 

Charity bet they don't? 

[Buzzell]

Thank fvck the competition in this league are mostly shite

What is going on. Just depressing watching us play . We have premier players in the championship yet play at the level of team that has forgo to close teams  down. 

[filbertway]

Not too concerned about the rest of this season. Weve got a cheat code squad and will go up.

 

Mentality is very poor though. No killer instinct and we fold under pressure. This is to inferior teams as well. God help us next season against squads that will be regularly better than us.

 

Frustrating but plenty of time for Enzo to learn and address this. Lessons need to be learned and we need to develop a stronger mentality though.

But they only got 2 points off us. It was important not to lose.

I almost think Enzo is sending a message to the board with not making substitutions that my options aren’t good enough..

Don't. That reminds me of a previous manager.

 

[Sunbury Fox]

Last 20 of that was appalling. Just tried to complete triangles between Mads and the back 3 with no attempt to try to get a second. Not sure if it was complacency or people were out on their feet through pressing. Either way, Enzo doesn't trust his bench much. 

 

Ipswich looked like a League One side for most of the game but as soon as they brought on fresh legs towards the end and pressed us we started looking very dodgy at the back.

 

Feels like another defeat tbh.

Disappointing but at least Ipswich haven’t gained ground. Those laughing off any notion of others catching us need to give their heads a shake…

 

It was just so predictable. Once it got to the 70 minute mark and we hadn’t manage to convert our chances before, you may as well have just fast forwarded to 85+ to get to their inevitable goal.

 

It’ll keep happening as long as we just sit back and don’t try to kill games off.

That’s devastating, with the mentality of this team, it’s very hard to see us going up tbh. 

That’s such an awful take & possibly the biggest over reaction I’ve seen in here.

The lack of Plan B reminds me of a certain Northern Irish man……. 
 

Happened a few times now, it’s a little worrying.

You could tell this was going to happen when KDH went off and McAteer and JJ stopped even pretending they were going to look for a forward and the defence starts tippy tappy closer and closer to the goal line.

blame that on the manager not the players. 

 

How is that a surrender? they took a pot shot and the balls fallen kindly to the striker. 

 

If you were a player in that game you’d feel very hard done by. Don’t let the result taint the effort that was out there 

Disagree re players. They went on the back foot. Agree, Enzo takes a huge portion of the blame tonight. Poor. Even from the stands. But players need to actually engage and be innovative and creative. Right now, I’m not sure they even feckin spell those words let alone demonstrate them. 

[EastAnglianFox]

I should be loving life this season but why the fvck has most of it seemed such hard work and not that enjoyable

[Lesta2014]

Any danger of us going on and killing off a game against anyone other than bottom 6!

Hope there will not be potential banana skins against Swansea and Stoke in particular coming up.

[Trev3939]

Their keeper probably man of the match. Never should have conceded but with a different keeper in goal today we win comfortably 

[Fear Of The Fox]

We're dropping points because of Vesty/Faes and because we don't have a proper holding ball midfielder. These two CBs shouldn't be near a 25 players  squad when and if we go up.

Ipswich have got to be one of the luckiest teams I've ever seen.

Yeah, but fair dues, they also work bloody hard for it and were far more aggressive second half. What they lack in quality they have in determination instead. They kept asking questions and ultimately we couldn't find the answers. 

Concerning how they found so much space in the last twenty minutes and that we didn't go five at the back or something. Faes, Justin ans Hamza were on the ropes non-stop.

[Spudulike]

Yet again we conceded momentum from the first minute of the second half and struggled to get it back. Bloody annoying

[Leicester_Loyal]

What are the stats vs. The other top 6/8 teams ? I swear we’ve taken about 11 points from a possible 24.
