The Official Leicester City thread

We're in no man's land at the minute, nothing to play for, nowhere to go, and it shows.

[Leicester Loyal]

Wes Morgan starting once again. He can literally make so many mistakes every game and is still sure to start every game.

[Cobnapint]

Great defending there from Leics - not. 0-1.

[Leicester Loyal]

Another home loss. Haven't won at home since January. It can't carry on for much longer! Bringing Dragovic on at HT when we were already 1-0 down? Taking our arguably 2 best players off on 60mins, using up all 3 subs on 60 mins. What is going through his head?!

Who his next job will be with is my guess.

As a Foxes fan what else can you say!

[Flying Phil]

Will the 3 - 1 win against Arsenal be sufficient to keep our manager?

[trackdemon]

As an outside observer, it probably should really? 9th place is pretty respectable for those fighting outside the top 6; perhaps next season you could/should aim to overhaul Burnley, and with a bit of investment and a mediocre season for them Everton too. I think the leap into the Manchesters/Spurs/Liverpool/Chelsea/Arsenal league is tough for anyone, so 7th is winning the 'rest of the league... league'. Retaining the big names will be key I suppose, alongside a few astute additions.

The home didn't favourable for Leicester City. The game strategy should be changed.

If I was an outsider I'd be saying the same thing, similar to what people are saying about Everton. When you watch a team week in week out though, you see things a bit differently and have a different point of view.

It was a good win on Wednesday, but they had a man sent off in the 15th minute and they haven't taken an away point in 2018, so although it is Arsenal, we should definitely be beating them.

A good game to finish the season - 9 gaols! Just a shame that Spurs got 5 of them.....Anyway what shape will the team be for the start of the next season???

[Cobnapint]

A better mental state than they were in a few weeks back I'd wager.

We need a new LB, two CBs and a RB.

A class RB signed (Pereira) and now a class CB signed (Johnny Evans). Looks like we are sticking with Puel, I will give him a chance next season with his team and his tactics, hopefully we will be a lot better than we were for the majority of this season.

I believe we'll get one of Maddison or Roberts, aswell as Grelish.

[Cobnapint]

Half time and despite the pen, great start from Leicester. We look sharp, the new signings look very good and there seems to be good communication across the pitch. Bodes well.

[Adam B]

Idiocy by defender but you have done well against parked bus

Please keep it up and equalise

[Leicester Loyal]

We played well, on another night could have gotten at minimum a point. A moment of madness from Amartey has cost us a point. That starting 11 will be changed come next weekend and will be very different come the end of the month. You could see Utd just had that little bit more quality on the ball than us, which is the difference between the top teams and the mid table ones, but all in all we did ok.

Roll on Wolves next weekend.

[Cobnapint]

Yes, a very good overall performance that deserved a point.

What the hell was Amartey thinking?

[Flying Phil]

A promising start and as Leicester loyal says, let's "Roll on Wolves ...."

+1 plenty of positives to take away from that first game, this weekend should be a good indicator of our current level. I'd like to see a bit more quality in the final third which is difficult against a team that can defend like MU.
