The benteke bashing needs to stop Ronaldo wouldn't get goals in this team.

Before the game I would have been delighted with a point ... but I'm underwhelmed (again) at the finish.

We were the better side for about 30 mins out of the 90. If Leicester had been clinical like Liverpool it would have been a cricket score so respect the point

Leicester have players that can pass the ball and then make space for themselves to receive it or make themselves available with movement, they just highlighted the difference between the abilities of both sides, when we play the way of big sam we are harder to break down but to say the score would've been that bad is dismissing the confidence of our squad due to the last awful results, yes they probably deserved to win that but we finally got ourselves back to our usual way during that second half when we really if we could actually string three passes together held out for a very fortunate win, I expect to see Eze come on against Sheff.U to help with our control while attacking we can hopefully afford to risk him.
Our ball control is quite awful and I'm not going to mention our abysmal passing, poor Mr Hodgson has had to put up with this for too long and for anyone to blame him for it is ludicrous even Riedewald joined in with it.

An awful goal for us to concede.
Barnes was surrounded by 3 of our players and he still managed to shoot low into the corner.

A decent point all things considered. Annoying to concede late on but tbh I can't say we did enough to win. We seem to concede a few goals by cheaply giving possession away from our own throw ins.

Ah well, didn't seem like any injuries so should have a decent squad to select from for the Sheff United game. Which I fully expect to be another ugly one. But plenty of effort out there today (not so much quality except for the goal) and it was important to get something from the game after two very bad displays.

Onto the next one COYP

You on a promise?

Just asking like, for a friend

 


This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

Benteke was hiding behind players.

Once again he is short on confidence.

Sorry he not short on confidence he is just useless, he will never be a quality striker again, he needs to go he has no floor skills, can't score, cannot hold up the ball so that players can get up in to spaces, can't pass and is slow, that is not a loss of confidence it is clear he has lost it and needs to move on!

I thought the McArthur sub was a good idea – until it wasn't. He's a good player to muck up the works for the opposition, but from the moment he barged into a player and gave up the free kick, it was clear his legs hadn't recovered from Saturday.

And I have no idea why Luka is playing. None.

So we got a point against a Leicester side that made 7 changes and played their Carabao Cup side.

Doesn't anyone find it in the slightest bit embarrassing that Brendan Rodgers thought that little of us that he could make 7 changes..!!

Beyond that we were totally outplayed and woeful first half and but for a great penalty save from Guaita would have been 1 down at half time..!!

Better first 20 second half and a moment of magic from Zaha..!!

That aside same old, same old - conceded in the last 10 and then hanging on..!!

If anyone thinks this is vindication for Roy to stay on as Manager they are sadly deluded - he's got to go..!!

What you say is accurate enough, but for the moment let's appreciate the point and see what the Sheffield game brings.

Amazon just picked up on the clear handball VAR missed in the first half.

Amartey with a hand of god to punch the ball away before Benteke could get his head on a corner.

Clear and obvious error that wasn't picked up on!
