It's true Leicester aren't great but they are a very good team. TEAM.
If you insist on giving teams like this the early goal that allows them set up as they would prefer, then you are always going to be chasing scraps.
We don't look like we have s plan and haven't done for quite a while. There's no drive, no cohesion, no leadership.
We do not look like we have a team capable of winning a league. Certainly not a fit one anyway. Too many of this bunch are either past it, were never up to it, never will be up to it, or just don't fancy it.
Pep will have his work cut out for him.
Our passing has gone to shite. I fear at least half of the ones you expect to stay do not have a football brain up to Pep's requirements.
We are always capable of one off performances but even those have not been up to the quality we saw a couple of seasons ago. We need leaders back on the park. Apart from Vinny, where is that going to come from.
Having said all that we've been in worse situations at later stages of the league before. Who knows. Either way there is a lot of clearing out to be done this summer.
Don't blame him at all, our lack of fight was our undoing. That said he was worse than not great, he was fucking awful in that first half. Every single 50/50 went their way, every time we broke he pulled us back for something or other. When we did manage to get away on a break they pulled out of us and kicked at ankles with impunity, thus slowing down any attack we tried to launch.
Like I said I'm not blaming him for the result but let's have it right, he was an absolute disgrace.
