Dehydrated piss? Is that just piss fumes in a bottle?
Leicester fans were actually arseholes when they turned up last year in the FA cup game, surprised really.
Yeah sad innit. I'd def chuck in Alli and Pritchard given where we are now but it's the damage it might do long term if they're not instantly up to it.
I think hes a wannabe midfielder in a way tbh-great with the ball at his feet and def a smart guy but I just mean if he had a proper hard tackler partner who he could clean up for and work the ball out he would be better suited to that role.
With the tackle or the partnership mate?I don't want to make you angry Hulk - but no - I totally disagree.ochlol:
Lamela will be asked to wear different coloured boots.
I can't see it doing any more damage than our absurd transfer policy has done already. Come on, we've all seen a pattern emerging. "You do it - no you do it". No one taking responsibility. No pace, no vision, no bollocks. Everyone blames the manager, and these lightweights get away with it because they're not pushed. Poch is too slow to chuck players in IMO.
Haven't been able to read through the entire thread due to being at the game itself, but...
Leicester is an absolute shithole. Even in the sunshine it's crap. It's the most bland, boring, ugly and pointless city in England and probably on a par with Reading in terms of worth visiting i.e. it really isn't. Their ground is about as interesting as the city: a shit, cheap, characterless, one-tiered box. The locals were quite noisy in the stadium but given there is fuck all else to do in Leicester, I guess they try to make the most of 90 minutes once a fortnight for 2/3 of the year. Our support was pretty good but it did get a bit quiet at various stages when they looked to be on top, despite our possession.
I'm amazed at the stats quoted on e.g. chances and shots as I really felt like we were on the back foot for most of the match, and we never really looked like scoring. Our squad is light but it's young. We need some signings and I'm sure something will happen before the end of the transfer window, or else we're fucked. We can pass the ball a little bit, but there's not enough pace, not enough of a cutting edge, not enough creativity, physically we seem (apart from Moussa) to lack strength and get too easily outfought and out-muscled, however much Mason tries to scythe down opponents.
I know it's a young team, early in the season, lacking a few signings etc etc... but if I'd just come out of a coma and someone told me AVB was still in charge, I wouldn't be at all surprised. We're not great to watch. Kane is going to be broken by October at this rate. Quite what is going through Lloris' mind right now is anyone's guess... but he is absolutely immense and deserves better than this.

A Franz Beckenbauer if you will. I see that in him but I just don't think our set up and defence can handle a CB pushing out leaving gaps behind.
With the ball playing classy player bit. He doesn't do this when he has a decent centre forward roaring up his arse. He also can't defend at this level. As I said the guy has got worse every season - he's not dependable.
Yeah thats what I mean, if he had a beast beside and in front of him we might see that side of him back.
Toby is a good defender but is he that player that can get the best out of Jan? Im not sure on the evidence I've seen-Belgium have flattered to deceive in recent years, although they've rarely played at CB together consistently and the eredivise is not comparable to the prem.
Bit harsh imo man, he played out of defence well when we had the likes of Bale there to get the ball to. Scored a few roaring up the middle and from left back a few times first season too-I think he has that in him, hes just stagnated.
Hes def not the top prem CB I thought he was tho tbh/
No, I admit he looked good then, but he had huge sulk when his 'dream move' to Real was stymied. I'm talking about him now - he's not that player now. Anyway we can agree to disagree.
Look I'll be the first to admit I'm Chadli fan - I was with austin spurs down there getting the autopgrahs on the dolphin. I saw his potential in the first season. He can be formidable in the box on set pieces, has a great curler, can distribute sometimes, etc. He fucks up sure, but there are plenty that should be benched before him. I can't believe some of you are still whining about him. Piss on someone else. There are so many choices!
We're fucking limited and that's just how it is right now. You fucking piss heads keep making all sorts of shit up and I really dont understand it. Alli should start, Lamela should fuck off, wimmer for vertonghen, trippier for walker.. i dont know the rest. I know a yank.

I agree man, hes not looked like that player since unfortunately and I don't think Toby is the man to put beside him to get that back:-/No, I admit he looked good then, but he had huge sulk when his 'dream move' to Real was stymied. I'm talking about him now - he's not that player now. Anyway we can agree to disagree.
I'm not to bothered TBH - I hope we sell him to Watford.
I think he would suit a better side than us tbh and get that form back with a better team round him but he doesn't seem up for the fight with us atm. very disappointed with him the last year or more:-/
Last refuge of a lazy player. You don't attract better clubs playing the way he has been.
