First time the team has looked tired

We've had games coming thick and fast and Wilder named an unchanged team for the third game in a row. Leicester were always going to come at us as they've had some bad results and are fighting for a top four place. I was surprised Wilder didn't make a couple of changes to prevent burn out after the effort everyone put in on Sunday.

I'm expecting Lundstram and Fleck to start against Everton and possibly Sharp to give McBurnie a rest.
 
That wasn’t a tired performance, it was poor. Man U was a tired performance

we insisted on attacking Down our right, but they seemed weaker down the left first half.

fleck for ozzy and Lunny for Sander didn’t work.

all that said, As crap as we were, Leicester played us perfectly
 
Probably tired at the end but not during, we just couldn't get close. They're quick, and they get zippy passes out first touch. It's our kryptonite.

Came back into it a bit but they had us at arms length really. Can't complain really, they're good.
 
Tired...Rarely have I seen 13 footballers play so poorly individually & collectively. Only Ollie N & Hendo played anything like. The other 4 midfielders were v poor today, & Lundstrum was dreadful he showed no energy & his tracking back was lethargic. The thought of Lundstrum against Everton is surely a joke.

We were way off it today in every dept, but take nothing away from Leicester they played well & contained us with ease, stopping any overlapping & winning virtually every second ball. Ndidi was immense & our midfielders could learn a lot from him. Ultimately we were very poor & there is no substitute for quality, which Leicester showed in abundance, particularly going forward, good luck to them.
 
Not really mate was pretty poor, they had Morgan,Bennett at the back and didn't even have a shot from what i can remember
 
very poor not very tired. how many times did we give it away in midfield. We could not string two passess together in first half. Taking Bash off was a mistake killed any forward play on the right..
 
We were outplayed today by imo a very good team and Leicester were 100% at it , we def looked tired also but we're well beaten

Felt over the season Leicester have been one of the better teams against us and are understandably where they are
 



Combination of tiredness and them being half decent for me

However, imo, it's not the first time we've looked tired. A couple of those games when we came back from lockdown we look jaded, Villa and Newcastle. Man U just outclassed us.
 
Today they were much quicker to the ball than us and deserved the win. We looked a tired team but it's been happening to most teams under this kind of pressure.
Unfortunately for us, they' chose today to come out of one of there's :tumbleweed:
 
We played right into their hands. Leicester had much more, so nothing taking away from them. That said, first half we're trying to play McB as a target man against Morgan? The blokes a unit and our top end couldn't get a hold of the ball-McB isn't a target man. Meant they were all over us.

Put the pace of moose on and second half we at least put a bit of pressure on to start, though chasing the game at that point and we're done on the counter.

Fair play to Leicester, much more clinical.

I do wonder about our away prep. Since restart home games we've looked awesome, but away we've not been at it. Not fans obviously-something off with our travel arrangements?
 
We couldn't be bothered to chase the second ball. And when we did, two of our players ended up going for the same ball and left huge gaps.
 
Not sure it was all tired. Leicester played well. They played to spoil our tactics, which maybe a sign for next season. Not the best result at this stage of season but fuck it let’s go do Everton
 
We looked knackered been a good effort from.the lads but games have been coming thick and fast

This is what amazed me about people so.desperate for European football next season
Once we lose that high intensity of our play we look a very average side
 
Anyone else getting slightly concerned about these away results. 5 games 1 goal. We’ve raised the bar high. We need to keep the standard we’ve set.

Poor tonight. I didn’t think Leicester were anything special. Morgan at Centre half looked about 2 stone overweight and we needed to exploit that but failed,

Very frustrated

Again - bollocks.

We didn't play poorly. We were just outclassed. Never had a sniff. It happens. No need to make excuses.

On to the next one!
 
Ndidi and teilmans absolutely bossed it
 
Easiest game Leicester will have all season. We didn’t get off the bus tonight.

This was worse than Newcastle and Man U, we lost 2 0 could have been 7, no excuses we were poor, very poor. We move on.

Concerned? Fuck me... What could we possibly be concerned about at this very moment?

Jees....

We weren’t great, but I thought Leicester were excellent - a good combination of organisation, effort and quality. They played in the right spirit too - no rolling around, no sly cheating. Along with Burnley and Wolves (and us), I admire them.
