Leicester are toothless up front. they play decent football in the first two thirds of the pitch then they flop

I fucking hate Liverscum so fucking much arghhhhhhhhhh

Liverscum do look good and pretty solid. Theyre not giving many chances away and think theyve changed the way they play slightly - not as intense which would bode well for them in terms of energy and fitness

They're not giving chances away because Leicester seem physically incapable of moving the ball past the half way line

They do look more solid, for sure. But they havnt really played anyone of note yet.

Leicester look far less threatening without Vardy and Mahrez.

Youre right and i also made a point regarding the final third but perhaps Leicester are unable to do so because Liverscum arent allowing them. I just think the fact they havent conceded in three and a half games is telling.

Carragher is a terrible co commentator.

He was angry when the commentator mentioned Liverpool’s defensive frailties from last season. So unprofessional from sky to have him on.

It’s not the spitters fault, he’s always going to be biased, especially during a live game when he doesn’t have time to engage his ( tiny ) brain

I mentioned this during the game - so wrong - the commentator bottled it after that

We won't be able to move the ball over the half way line either unless we chip it over their press. We will not pass through or around it. Give them their due they are very good at what they do and a very dangerous team.

I disagree. We have done it before, last season in fact and almost won the game. Their pressing game is nothing new in football. Teams need to just stop shitting themselves against them.

Definitely sorted out their defence, they look excellent at the back.

Our match against them will tell us a lot about both teams.
