Ipswich will turn us over!

Ipswich AND Leicester have both beaten Spurs this season

[Gunner Rob]

Mind boggling how shit cheaty have become. This time last year they were romping home with ease as we prayed they’d even draw a game. 2/3 nil up by halftime most weeks.

12 months on and they’re an absolute fucking shambles. I wouldn’t fancy them to beat anyone these days.

Hence why we should call a spade a spade and give Arteta his flowers for keeping us relatively competitive despite the injuries, ridiculous officiating and crazy fixture schedule. We’ve adapted, grind out results and rarely get pulled apart. City collapsed from the moment they lost Rodri

It’s all a bit odd really.
We have become a team who can “compete” in both the league and champions league, yet….at no point this season have I ever considered us capable of winning either of these competitions

Yep, mind boggling are the words. I was watching the game yesterday, which was absolutely fucking dreadful and wondering how a side can decline so much virtually overnight. Ok, they lost Rodri, Haaland is missing and some of their most influential players are ageing, but to go from where they were last season to what they've become this term, is beyond belief. Makes you wonder what's going on behind the scenes.

Apparently they need to get 19 more points between the three of them to avoid being the official worst bottom three in PL history. More chance of plaiting fog!

Trouble is the 3 likely coming up are every bit as shit !

209 goals conceded between the 3 of them, they’re al absolutely fucking gash. Had the gulf between the championship and PL widened so much that anyone who comes up will get battered every week like complete pubbers?

We’re a long way from the days of a Brighton or Brentford coming up and being immediately competitive that’s for sure. Last season and again this time around the 3 have been absolutely pathetic.

Last season Sheffield Utd went down with 16 points and a goal difference of minus 69 having conceded over 100 goals

Fast forward a year and they have 83 points, 2nd in the Championship and only a point off the leaders Burnley. That's Burnley who managed 5 wins and 24 points and have conceded only 12 goals all season in the Championship

We are sending players all round the world, playing games all year round. Surely the time has gone to chop the division down by at least 2 teams, maybe 4. Does anyone really enjoy watching these teams get their arses handed to them and being down by Easter. It's not good for anyone

[rodders999]

Saw an article the other day making a big song and dance about Burnley only conceding 12 goals all season.

Whoop Dee fucking Doo. This time last year they were conceding 4,5,6 a game and this time next year they’ll be doing the same.

Fuck off!

[SteveO 35]

Just as Leicester become the first team in PL history to lose 8 consecutive home games without scoring a goal

Best league in the world....

[Nick Nack]

Watching Leicester against the head choppers. Fuck me have they thrown in the towel. One of the worst cases of phoning in a performance I can remember. The defending for the goals was amateur at best.

Fuck off Vardy, c.unt.

Yup! So with any luck we won't be seeing the Steptoe Cūnt in the Prem Ever Again.

Leicester City were a disgrace to themselves, to their supporters in the half full stadium ( except for the away section) and to football. They didn't even break sweat.
I cannot accept a team not trying, Ipswich Town are getting relegated but are putting in an effort and will go down with some pride.
But Leicester's attitude after they nearly scored after eleven seconds was abysmal.
The second goal Schar hit the cross bar from inside his own half,there were two, possibly three Leicester City players closer to the goal than Murphy who scored on the rebound..None of them reacted. They will go to the Championship and possibly get promoted and celebrate in front of a full house in May 2026...
Reduce the top division to sixteen teams , thirty games and maybe it would cut out the dross and maybe reinvigorate the FA Cup.

I said to the missus at the time that the Leicester players involved in the Schar incident should be sacked.

There was another incident where one of their players was given a yellow card, and he just sauntered off with a couldn't give a fuck attitude.

They should be made to community service after that performance.

Van Horse face has to go down as one of the worst managers in PL history. Not sure what Leicester were thinking appointing him
