Smith arguing he's not being negative because he's gone 2 up front while essentially playing a back 7 and leaving out his 2 most dangerous players

Draw enough for Newcastle to get CL, Leicester clearly parking the bus. Doesn't bode well for a thriller.

Blues during that 0-0 at our place last season too, that was the earliest time wasting I've ever seen live
That game...

How much of the game was taken up by their CB to limber from one side of the pitch to the other to aimlessly launch the ball into the box!?

I think there was another outfit that did the same last season

Ahhh I see. Not a red IMO, it's high but there is hardly any force. The lad that went down is a fanny.
Yeah, can't necessarily disagree with you there. Still think it's naughty but more surprised that VAR hasn't stuck it's oar in with it being studs on knee.

Yea a bit naughty, that Bruno has a Gus like edge which I like. I think the play acting is worse tho, it's embarrassing.

I think he'd be OK, he's been fautless since his second red this season (I don't think he'd have been sent of with VAR on that occasion)
I agree he'd be okay now, amazing how much he's improved. Not so sure about that red v Blues though, couple of angles looked like he kicked out to me but nothing conclusive so you could be right.

There would be more angles in the prem actually so maybe it would have been given. Again, a soft one

Not even saying this to have a dig at our rivals , but Leicester have been absolutely garbage.

long pump up the field to Vardy who isn’t that type of player. Bought Maddison on at HT and I don’t think he’s touched the ball yet? Everything is bypassing him. They looks absolutely awful

Got away with it for an hour now though

Don’t get me wrong , defensively they’ve been alright. But they can’t string 5 passes together , there not even trying to. That’s what would be driving me mad if it was us

Dean Smith teams often struggle out of possession with the way he sets up but playing Vardy on the halfway line & then essentially a flat back 9 camped in their own box was bizarre even for him.

I hope this isn’t a smash and grab 1-0 away win.
