Rogers tinkerin agean

 

[Eza Blade]

Fuck off, roll on Everton

 

[Iceybabey]

Lacklustre performance

 

[HeySethUTB]

Game over, huff and puff. No end product. This performance is comparable to the Newcastle and Man Utd games. Need wins in the last two for any chance of Europe.

 

[BobblesBlade]

They should have just sent the reserves down to Leicester.

 

[BettingBlade]

We’re lucky it’s only 2.

On the beach already.

 

[Geordie Blade]

Bloody hell, that was awful all round. We can’t seem to do anything right today.

 

[BrayfordsBushyBeard]

Everyone is below par and waiting for someone else to do something

 

[Dutch Blade]

There's no shame in losing away from Leicester, but the way we did it... Absolute disasterclass by most of our team.

 

[Mojo]

Look knackered and touches are shocking

 

[LoughboroBlade]

What on Earth was Egan thinking there to try and waltz up the wing when a simple pass was on. Totally needless and when he lost the ball we were pulled completely out of position. That sort of sums the performance up – we’ve made so many poor decisions on the ball this evening.

 

[A Storm of Blades]

Stevens, McBurnie, Baldock, Lundstram too many sub-par

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

Enda Stevens giving the ball away has been a disappointment since resuming the league. Fuck me lad. Looks like he's had a few guinesses too.

 

[BettingBlade]

Probably the worst we’ve played all season.

 

[A Storm of Blades]

Probably the worst we’ve played all season.

Absolutely not.

 

[nickwr37]

Great to bad, just like that. Don't know what has changed our mindset. Fleck looks off it, plus others. Time for another beer.

 

[FriethBlade]

No spark anywhere. Tired legs but we need to find someone with a bit of magic who can go past players. How many times have we taken someone on and gone round them to draw a player out ?

 

[aBladeInTheNorthernSky]

at least Alan Smith has been calling us "United"

that's been nice.

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

Leicesters passing is so much better than ours too. Clinical and meaningful.

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

Wilder has always kept the team grounded and just focused on the next match ahead. He's refused to talk about Europe for that reason. No worries about that anymore. The dream is over.

Great season Blades. Let's just beat Everton and Soton and finish the season on a high and as far up the table as we can muster.

Tonight may have been one match too many for an unchanged team given the effort they put in against Wolves and Chelsea.

No complaints. The better team won tonight.

 

[Freethinker]

Stevens, McBurnie, Baldock, Lundstram too many sub-par

Can't pick a player above mediocre tonight I'm afraid to say be lucky to keep it to two vardy has the freedom of the park

 

[trevorhockey]

Yes overall poor today

 

[VwBlade]

Leicester are 4th in the league for a reason. Poor performance overall though, never looked like scoring. Whatever happens in these last three games, we've had a fucking cracking season

 

[Bladesman98]

Hope for better in the last 2

 

[trevorhockey]

We come along way they are top 4 so move on

 

[BobblesBlade]

There's no shame in losing away from Leicester, but the way we did it... Absolute disasterclass by most of our team.

Naaa Leicester have been crap since new year. Trust us to give em 3pts

 

[BladeInAustria]

Not good enough today against a very organised and driven Leicester side.

 

[Shoreham_Bhoys]

Nice, routine win for Leicester. They couldn't have wished for an easier game.

We're lucky it wasn't a demolition of 5 or 6.

Very poor from us.

 

[BettingBlade]

Absolutely not.

It is though. There were at least some mitigating circumstances in the three shit shows post lockdown.

This has just been wank from start to finish.

 

[VLYDONIMIR]

After their defeat at AFC, the last club anyone would want to play.

Brenda will have read the riot act and demanded a win.

Just like CW will do after tonight for the Everton match.
