Guys can we lay off Luke Thomas. He’s a local lad and it’s Brendan Rodgers fault that he’s s**t. No blame is attached to Luke whatsoever. Cheers. 

Lets be positive he has come to a new ground and will adjust himself here next season 

[DJ Barry Hammond]

Anyone with an update from Barwell? 
 

The most I’ve managed to learn so far is that the game did kick off!

These Danny ward chants are making me nervous

Very dull

[Richmondfox]

Kasey still can’t make his mind up what to do with the ball when he gets it. 

[ALC Fox]

The vertical movement has been pretty decent as the half has worn on. We're getting it forward nicely and also quite quickly, both on the deck with short, quick passes and with some long ones as well.

 

I think McAteer is coming into the game quite a bit now too.

[BillyFOX12]

Ward's been decent.

My apologies, sarcasm can be somewhat difficult to convey online…. 

[RowlattsFox]

Ironic cheers and sarcastic chants for Ward are embarrassing. Obviously not good enough, but he seems a decent bloke. 

 

Mcateer picks up great positions, shame he's not got a bit more ability on the ball because he'd be a great player. 

Not sure Fatawu on the left is a long term option or Mavididi in the 10.

Half time 1-0

FawaNews is showing the match if anyone doesn't want to pay for it

Any sign of Vardy there, given he’s not in Shrewsbury?

From where I am in the ground it was one guy giving him dogs abusive and some of the crowd getting behind him.

I assume he not going to play twice in 3 days.

He's found his level finally 

[Dr The Singh]

Like to see Ikoli amd Cannon on, for ward and Thomas.

 

And maybe Justin on for Daka.

[moore_94]

I assume we will probably see a full 11 change for the 2nd half?

Agree there’s some positives - but we do look vulnerable on turnovers.

 

I’m also not convinced the setup is the one to get the best out of our two best attacking threats - Fats & Mav 

[Will1981]

Like the way we are set up tactically, similar to last season when in possession but with the freedom to go long at times.

How have you worked out that either of those things aren’t long term options based on 45 minutes of a preseason friendly?

[Lillehamring]

Happy enough with that - team looks confident and up for it.

 

I feel like we're going to see a lot more quick passes into attacking space this season - a front three of fatawu, daka and mavididi has to be one of the fastest in the league.
