Why is Okazaki being booed? He looks good doesn't he?
He had the gal to be awake and alert in our penalty area. Whilst our defenders were half asleep.
He is pretty good though to be fair. Works incredibly hard. He's one of those pain in the arse players who doesn't stop buzzing. Leicester are a very well balanced side it must be said. Mahrez is having a poor game and he's their creative spark, so we should be thankful. If he turns up in the second half we're dog meat.

Garbage, again, for about the 25th time this season. Major overhaul needed, as we all know, as much urgency in the team as there is from us trying to bring players in. Down shit creek right now. Maybe the louts should wait for them by the coaches after the next game because its the only reaction from the players all season.

Not. Good. Enough. Aston Villa.

Westwood and Gana must be the most inept Villa midfielders ever. When attackers make forward runs they turn back seeking useless possession  passing with our defenders. No wonder Ayew looks like he is gonna cry all the time.

I feel we needed something more solid in midfield. We're trying to work the wings but not having any joy. Leicester have been very solid. The lob attempt was class and it was a good save just to keep it out. Bunn also saved a penalty which is fantastic!

I don't know what we can do to change it, maybe bring Sanchez on for Westwood to try and get some prescence in midfield.



Nice idea, but could be tough to bring Sanchez on.

After a brief flicker of "maybe we could get out of this mess" in the week, I see this and realise we are definitely going down and for good reason too.

They've just said you can't be offside if the ball comes from a goalkick. Didn't realise that. If that's the case then our backline really needs fucking shooting.

We are not totally devoid of quality in all parts of the pitch but I don't think I've ever seen a side more in need of some pace and energy up front.

That's the biggest difference between them and us. They're full of energy, we look like we've been in the pub all afternoon.

Absolutely, Remi needs to give them a kick up their collective arses. Their effort is unacceptable

It'll be fine. They'll score again ten minutes or so into the second half, then we'll score three.

Last minute, Gil will beat both Morgan and Huth to a header for the winner.

Sorted.

This game is already over for me, we don't look like scoring a goal in a million years. I know which team is going to score next and it isn't us.

Cant be offside from a Goal kick if you are talking about Vardy.

Richards on for Bacuna for a start.

Bacuna offers nothing at all.
