Although a couple of the yellows were harsh. Taylor had a boner for giving McCarthy one. Could see him itching to give a time wasting yellow card from the moment we scored the second.
Interesting to hear Tadic thanking him for the effort in training.
Looking at the player reactions it seems he's popular.
I've never been a massive fan of his but if we'd appointed him in Jan I expect we'd be OK now.
I guess you were one of the divs then? He was playing well until the retards starting booing him, after which he seemed nervous. Funny, that. Much more use than JWP.
For whatever reason, Puel seems to struggle to keep a Premier League squad in good spirits and well motivated.
A lot of our players disliked working with him. That's from a player's mouth.
Now it seems the same is true at Leicester.
I won't be buying a Season Ticket with this lot in charge unless some proper explanation is given as to strategy and source of funds.
Why are people having to dig this info out of obscure Chinese sports sites and Twitter profiles? Talk to the real fans FFS, not the selfie-stick and scarf dinlows over there (not that there will be any next season....).
Christ no.
Five defenders and absolutely zero creativity.
Back four.
Romeu and Hojbjerg.
JWP, Redmond, Tadic
Austin
Swap Gabbi or Long for JWP fairly early if we're not scoring.
Swap Sims for Tadic or Redmond if they're not having a good game.
In the first half he was partly a victim of the system. We played with Romeu as a deep pivot and the other two midfielders fanning out either side. It meant Lemina wasn't on the ball too much to be a playmaker and also struggled to link with the forwards.
As Shurlock said, when the game opened up in the second half and we were looking to attack more he was pretty decent.
Frankly, it isn't going to help if any players are singled out for special treatment by the fans.
There was a chap at the back of block 135 working himself into a rage and running around screaming "c-unt!" at the rest of the crowd for not singing enough.
It makes you wonder what sort of repression these people carry with them in everyday life that they become so enraged when their outlet is perceived as slightly sub-optimal.
I think that's harsh on Yoshida. He made a couple of excellent covering challenges in the first half. Obviously he's not as good as Fonte, Lovren, Alderweirald, Van **** etc. but I thought he was decent today.
