Looks like a 4-4-1-1 with Mahrez playing behind Vardy. What are the odds we will play high crosses with those two up front
Utter tripe again - other results sucking us in - 15 minutes to go - 1 goal either way could define the season!
no sharpness in the attack, headless chicken midfield, ponderous defence we are only going one way last season is such a distant memory now.........
Disgrace Need Slimani back soon. As they say, sometimes you become more valuable when you don't play...
We are going down simple as that. Worst team in the league by far. I can't even see changing the manager helping as the players are uninterested and spineless
While we have defenders that cannot defend and midfielders that middle around, we do have strikers that strike...
It's getting concerning now, Man Utd and Liverpool at home two of the next three games as well. The teams below us are starting to win now which worries me. After last seasons euphoria I thought anything could happen this year and I wouldn't be bothered, that emotion has quickly evaporated!
... let's not forget how good Burnley are at home. If we had gone away with a point it would have been more than most have. The goal is also symptomatic of our season...if it had been us it would probably have been disallowed. That's footie ...time to take to the trenches and show character...plus pick players in form. If we are not good enough then...fair enough. Glad we have United and Liverpool at home coming up as we will need to shake ourselves up considerably...need to play either Ulloa or Slimani up top as it is just not happening with Vards currently...back to the Man City approach...
thought it was a pretty even game. Some penalty shouts for both sides and an obvious handball. Only saw you guys on MOTD but Vardy was making good runs but is so down in his confidence, he missed 1 superb chance, half dived for a 1 on 1 which he should have had an effort and missed an absolute sitter when heaton dropped it.
Didn't watch MOTD (can't bear it when we lose). What did they make of Vardy's penalty shout? I personally thought it was a clear penalty. Heaton came charging out and collided with Vardy. Vardy shouldn't have to go purposefully dodging tackles.
Don't think much was mentioned. As for the Vardy pen, one of those grey areas for me. One of those if it was my team you think, you could have given it but my player threw himself down and could easily have stayed up. On the other hand if it was given then it was a soft pen but contact was made but i kind of initiated by vardy by slowing down.
Wasn't a penalty. Vardy does what he always did and pretty much jumped into heaton. Referees are getting wise to him now
