Match Leicester City vs Spurs - Saturday 11th Feb, 3pm

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Feels like we repeatedly give the ball away cheaply about... 5 metres into the opposition half? And from there it's brown pants o'clock.
Last weeks coherent gameplan seems gone.

I get that I am probably reaching. But we know that our players can be easily unsettled. Is Conte's intense persona playing into this? We looked much more comfortable when it was good cop Stellini in charge last week.
 
We paid how much for porro? :pochshock:

I think we're looking here at a culture problem in the club, a symptom of modern times, but for some reason we are particularly bad. One minor example is how players bond with one another, players for example on the team coach before the game will all be plugged into their headphones, phones etc, when even 20 years ago, everyone wouldn't have a choice but to talk amongst each other, discuss, bond, disagree on things etc prior to the game. Talking amongst each other gets each other in the zone and hyped up for the game. Now everyone's just in their own zone, and really only until 30 half or so before the game they're unplugged from whatever modern device they own. It's a god damn shame and something needs to be done.
So what you're saying is...

... it all went downhill when they stopped playing UNO.

:levyeyes:
 
This has been 5 minutes that is even worse than the first half.

Come on Elite manager....... Change it up and sort it out.

Just hoping things will get better ain't going to cut it for 15 mil a year.

Of all the reasons I’ve seen people say for why we’re bad, phones and modern tech has to be the dumbest reason I’ve heard with all due respect.
 
Just don't believe the players believe in Contes tactics, they like him (I think) but they do not enjoy playing in his style, and more the point they CANT play his style
