Should have got an early goal. Had some chances. Under the pump a little now. Lucky to be 0-0. Hope we can find something in the second half.
Arter picks up his 5th yellow. Bamba lucky to still be on the pitch and we’re lucky not to have had a penalty against us. A pretty even match, Leicester started to impose themselves towards the end of the first half. NW needs to get the lads going again, it’s not going to be an easy 2nd 45 minutes. I wish predictive text would **** off and die.
As soon as Arter was booked the midfield was lost. Manga and Morrison had mares. Our attacking threat was non existent. Leicester were the better team to the man. It’s a simple game. Pass to your own team players, close down offensive players and when in or around the box choose the right option. I could blame the ref who was hopeless but no complaints about the result; it should have been more. Today for me illustrated that against better opposition City will continue to struggle with no real attacking ability and just try to nick a goal from a high punt into the box.
I thought one goal would win it and after the first half hour, I thought it'd be us. Sad to say we couldn't finish and let them back into the game. The sheer lack of class in the side to win a a game is telling its' own story. As much as I enjoyed the Fulham game and was quietly optimistic after that we could build on it, I hated that one today and my serious misgivings have returned. New boys Murphy and Reid were poor on the day and apart from the effort that Pato put in we were toothless going forward. If anything, Hoilett coming on made it worse. The three subs thrown on, Hoilett, Ward and Madine added nothing. We are seriously short of options and class probably in equal measure.
Can I just say on behalf of my football club and City Thank you for the respect and tributes you showed today. I think the world of football have learnt what we already knew that Vichai was an amazing person Cardiff City welcome and support they have shown us allowed us to come through today. So thank you and best of luck for the season. After today I sincerly hope we make a trip to Wales next season to play you which will be under better circumstances Best of luck and thank you
Very disappointed with Leicester, they seemed to fall down at every tackle and sometimes just because they felt like. I wonder if BBC will count the minutes they were shamming I bet it was more that the time Morro takes for throw-ins.
The big change was the substitution of Maguire. He was in the process of putting in the worst centre half display id seen in years He was so bad it was funny. Evans was different class. From that moment on we were outclassed. Hopefully Ralls is fit for Brighton or we are in big trouble.
Yeah they were in the refs face all game as well. But if those tactics won games wed win the Champions League. We cant complain when others do it.
If we have Zahore in the squad, just play him. Week in, week out. The only chance he has to adjust and improve is to play. As it is we are pretty much playing without a striker. Pointless.
Every team coming to CCS will see it as their golden opportunity to secure an away win. I had assumed after Fulham that the players would play the same type of attacking football and make the stadium a 12th man but yesterday’s performance was weak and that pervaded into the crowd which was strangely quiet. The Leicester tragedy should have made no difference to highly paid professionals. Bet Brighton can’t wait for Saturday. Another home defeat in Mr Sheep’s prediction league sadly.
the Leicester tragedy did make a difference today........it took the edge off and the rest is history.........we may have not won three points today but im proud our fans showed we aint no repulsive beast as many perceive us. anyway its done now and onwards we march through thy battlefield
