Poor old Driff's in Tiger t'internet limbo - he's been rousted from CI after a year of manic depressive rambling, bless him.
No I haven't. I chose to stop wasting half my life on there. Now limited to the very occasional post on here. Tell you what Chaz, I probably should do that. At least until Bruce and Allam have both cleared off (as TFT rightly said, for my own sanity). Cheers mate. Oh, by the way ......#BruceOut
I saw most of the second half and I did like how positive Leicester were when they got the ball, they wanted to attack the goal with direct runs rather than just pass it about for too long. That gives the opposition plenty to worry about.
there was always a chance because he was his knee was injured weak before he came here - much the same way that Diomande was injured when he came here, which is why he's hardly appeared as well - on the other hand Austin was allegedly injured which is why his move was blocked - most teams seem to manage not to buy injured players, Brucie seems to make a habit out of it - apparently Powell isn't fit to play yet which makes you wonder when Brucie will deem him fit enough
Took the words out of my mouth Charon. It was far from all about 'Snodders' (guffaw). That was just one small piece of the **** up that was last season. The whole football world knew 'Snodders' (stop it) was injured. He was even saying it himself. Diomande is another **** up. And I was thinking exactly the same as Charon writes about Powell (I hope to hell I'm wrong). We need a striker so he signs another attacking, injury prone midfielder lacking 1st team match fitness when there's only around 1/3 of the season left. Genius.. Bruce has spunked an incredible amount of money. This squad, with only a couple of clever tinkerings should have walked this division in some style. We aren't doing so and we won't. I detest his style of football. And I blame him, and ultimately him alone, for our relegation last season. Still, I hope that somehow he manages to get this squad to stumble across the finish line to a promotion.
Why do people - you - blame Bruce for signing injured players? Its not his job to know whether they're injured or not. He defines players he likes, someone else (Ehab at present?) negotiates with the selling club, someone else again decides if they're injured / likely to be prone to injury. Bruce was furious the Austin deal didnt go through so likewise it's not his fault when they do go through.
of course its his job to know whether they're injured or not - especially when they're already injured and he identifies them as someone he wants - he identified Proschwitz, Graham and Sagbo as his striking masterclass - they may as well have been injured for the good they did - why do people keep lauding Brucie despite all the **** ups and the massive waste of money - Leicester's team yesterday, £22 million and great football to watch - Brucies, £44 million and often dog ****e to watch - one team plays without fear and goes for it - the other ****s itself if it gets beyond the half way line - yet still the performing seals sing his name
Why do you have to keep compRing us with Leicester. Why isn't the golden boy at Bournemouth top f the league like Leicester? It's a piece of piss doing what Leicester do isn't it?? They also bought Kramaric for nine million and he's been ****.
Put Huth in Man City's team and they would take one big step to resolving their central defensive problems. How poor was Demichalis yesterday, awful! Well done Leicester, great performance
He has absolutely **** all to do with a players medical, you might as well blame him for the price of the beer at the KC.
'I detest his style of football.' The one that has got us top of the table, with the best goal difference and as top scorers? Yeah, I see what you mean. Dreadful. He has to go.
yes exactly and when you're doing this you're tiring the opposition, who naturally will rush things a bit when they get possession back. Leicester never give you a moment's rest. yes, they're fit but they're positive. I roll my eyes when we sit on leads, off comes the attacker, on comes the holding midfielder.. it's an effort to control the midfield but you end up with no outlet and the team naturally pulls back.. inviting pressure.
Every post about Leicester on here is oh they just go for it attack attack attack when in reality they are a counter attacking side. Who sit back and catch teams on the break. What was the possession stats? We signed Hernandez to do just what vardy does, except he was windy, injured, jet lagged a lot and not that fast.
where did I say he was - its his job to find out though before he signs them - if he signs them knowing they're injured then it's his fault - capiche
So it's Steve Bruce's responsibility to conduct a pre-medical medical? Or should he simply ask the player and te selling club whether he is injured or not? That should go well...
We weren't talking about players' ability, we were talking about it being his fault for signing injured players
