Voted Other. Probably the players but there’s a serious mentality issue here at the moment and I’m not entirely sure where it comes from. What I do know is that there have been far too many occasions this season where the players have simply stopped trying.

Hurzeler got it wrong today.

Leicester are very poor. Even with a bad day at the office, with the depleted squad that we have, we should have still won this... and perhaps even won it convincingly.

Yes, the players were missing chances, but Hurzeler failed to make the necessary changes to 1) capitalise on our dominance in first 2/3 and win the game and, more significantly, 2) React in any way to the tactical changes made by Leicester after their subs which opened us up.

Me, I opened myself up to this disappointment by turning up

There are a million things to do on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon, but I chose to make myself miserable at the Amex

Player recruitment ultimately. Always a couple of defensive/DM absences away from being so vulnerable to ….. anyone. The worst or second worst team in PL history, Stains, tore us apart for the entire second half in our stadium.
We had 6 defensive absences today: JPVH, Webster, Veltman, Igor, Lamptey, Kadioglu. And it's arguable that Dunk is not 90-minute fit either.

Players. Our tactics were fine, which is why we created a billion chances. Relaxing after scoring a goal isn't fine, especially not given our last game against these. They're paid to play football and did it half-heartedly once we went 1-0 up and then 2-1 up. Five minutes of bad concentration gives both opposition goals and a switch of momentum. Immediately after our first goal, we stopped chasing their defenders down when they were measuring long passes to Mavdidi & co. It is not acceptable. It is lazy.

He should have subbed Dunk and stuck a rocket up Barts arse at half time. . . . THe manager doesn't have big balls . . . .yet. . .
