Nope, struggling to work out the difference between Wilder raging and Wilder rages.

9/10 - point knocked off for use of ' top top team ' ( pet hate) ... agree wholeheartedly with the rest , don't think this team realise how good they can be just yet.Yes he's right in first half too many sloppy passes.
But my God...
WE are a good team- Leicester are a top top team and we more than matched them throughout the match.
I thought every player (bar Robinson who I thought a bit weak and ineffectual) were very good and definitely proud of them. Left happy - you can't say more than that.
Standout players Egan/ Freeman (this lad is going to be a superstar) McBurnie -
And for the crowd big pat on the back 10/10 - the second half rendition of Allez Allez Allez - as good as it gets.
Bring it on THIS TEAM is DARNED GOOD>
I feel really positive about the rest of the season after today. We’d have got a decent point if it weren’t for what could be the goal of the season. Wasn’t one that I’d got us down to get anything from, and we looked solid in my opinion
The comment in the interview about the restaurant booking made me wet my kegs laughing.
Very early days, but a few thoughts:
- Watching players like Vardy, Maddison, Saha, Callum Wilson etc. on MoTD highlights, they look like supermen. Watching them 'live', they're not - they make mistakes like everybody else.
- We're a match for anybody we've met so far in terms of fitness.
- What we're lacking is nous and speed of thought compared to seasoned PL players. That's the difference between playing the decisive, first-time, defence-splitting ball and wanting that extra touch.
But we'll be reight. I've seen enough of the PL to think that we'll do OK. Wilder's still 'finding his feet' at this level and so are the players. We got 1 points out of our first 12 in CW's first season - including a 0-3 defeat at home to Southend. How far we've come.
Honesty ?
Of course.
Pashun ?
No doubt.
Admitting you picked the wrong fuckin side ?
Not a chance !
That midfield would have got over run in the Championship.
We missed Fleck enormously although his direct replacement did well.
As unpopular as this will be, Norwood is not a PL player. Not even close actually.
I simply can’t be disappointed to lose against a side that was, frankly, a class above for the most part. We of course had our moments, and scored via a great cross and sublime header.
But the midfield area is a concern.

3 games 3 goals and 2 of those from strikers coming off the bench. I can understand us being more defensive minded but it's not like we're missing sitters every week. We need to create for and for me McBurnie has to start if the plan is to go longer.
I don’t think we picked the wrong side, in fact I think we chose the team pretty well. IMO Freeman played the fleck role great and added a lot more offensively than fleck does (I do love fleck btw). I think it was a pretty even game and we nullified their threats quite well (counter attacks)... of course they had their moment as to be expected but we more than held our own at times and really asked questions of what is presumed to be a top 6 team. Norwood brought in the opposite side of play frequently and introduced space (I admit he gave up possesion a few times) but overall I thought he had a decent game. Leicester went down like a sack of shite at many challenges but I feel if the midfield carry on doing what they are, we’ll win (or draw) more than we lose, they pressed at every opportunity and cut out many key players forcing them to play it long.Honesty ?
Of course.

How? Did you watch the first half? We were all over the place, our passing was shocking.wilder talks shit sometimes
Let’s hope to Christ that the plan isn’t to go longer. If we start panicking and go down that route we’ll be nailed on relegation fodder and lose everything that we’ve developed over the last 3 seasons. It’s clear the CW wants the team to play football but they need to believe. I suspect that it was the inability to execute the simple things that got him riled.3 games 3 goals and 2 of those from strikers coming off the bench.

No chance of "going long" under CW because that style makes every positive pass into a 50/50 ball , or worse , because Prem defenders will just eat those balls up all day long + we'll have even less possession. The CW mantra is possession-based "proper" football + of course it's harder in the Prem to both gain possession + then to keep it. I can't put my finger on why we turned over possession so often in the first half - it wasn't that Leicester were do much better than us at pressing the he ball - we simply gave it away through unforced errors - and their first half goal was literally put on a plate for them by Bash , leaving Egan totally exposed - in fact , Leicester were not good enough to profit as they should have done , from our carelessness with the ball - this would have had CW seething with anger , as he knows carelessness will eventually get punished in the Prem. Second half we improved , especially when he replaced a winger & a 10 with 2 strikers who could worry their defenders. We deservedly equalised and I felt we might grab a barely deserved win , but our good luck from the first half evened out in the second half and their "worldie" second goal deflated us - either a draw or narrow defeat for us was the fair result - but we can't really argue that we "deserved" a draw , after that substandard first half , never mind a win. My conclusion is that we threw away the point which we could have taken if we'd played to our normal standards - it wasn't Leicester that TOOK that point off us - our first half was our own fault - we GAVE Leicester the point we should have taken ...and that will hurt Wilder more than getting dominated by a much superior side eg from the top six (which doesn't include Leicester in my view) - they are as fast moving mid-Prem side with Madison & 2 good strikers , but not top six. Wilder will hate losing to any 'non-top-six' clubs.Let’s hope to Christ that the plan isn’t to go longer.
