Leicester City: Players given a wake-up call after Posh shocker

“ghost you are very right in some ways although at 48 million over the following 4 years after we go down should we be promoted it will stop us going under. Yes we do need to get rid of that many sub standards and only Wood is premiership level. he should start getting rid now rather than later and loaning out the others. The fact is without Wood the spirit is wafer thin and the first tear disintegrates it. At least earlier in the season it was just squandered chances now it's lack of desire. If I were Pearson I'd wonder why most of the players did not seem to want to play for him or this club these last two games. They were disgraceful and embarrassing to watch.”

“Wake up call?????? You are having a laugh...

IF we DO get up, the manager (whoever that is) will need to get rid of 15 players and buy in 18 and the cost will finish the club if we go straight down!!!!!!!!!!!

What a palaver!!

NAME ME 3 current players who will cut it in the Premier League and i'll book you into a specialist unit for treatment ..

Either accept that we are best in the Championship or go down with the Ship........”

“Geoff I know our views have been very far apart but I can't fault you lately. I agree entirely. I'd have Futacs up front with Nugent it can't be any worse than Waghorn or Vardy so nothing to lose there. A lot of folk have hinted that Danns is not good for team moral. I ask anyone now is team moral improved by having a player with no confidence, belief or skill on the bench. I'd prefer Tom Hopper on the bench to Vardy and it would help the lad get over having his loan with Bury cut short. Let him be around first team players. Shlupp should be on there too.”

“When Peterboro's winning goal went in our back four were there. The ball was played across the front of them and McCann scored. Petrucci's goal was not that different. If you play two wingers in midfield the other two (Drinkwater and King on Sat.) HAVE to be there. There was NO midfield for both goals. After injury, King's goals have dried up (He is no longer our Lampard) and James, or a recalled Danns, needs to play. I think they're starting to believe winning is easy - it's 'only' Peterboro' and we're winning 1-0. Watford have most of Udinese playing for 'em. It's NOT EASY. We will do well to finish above Watford.”

“every away game the squad plus manager and staff stay in hotels . our away form is not good enough . why stay in peterborough away from your family and friends when a hour travel away is all it is ? 1- the cost ? 2- i wouldn't like it . 3- They do it for EVERY away game and IT DOESNT WORK !! just a pointer .”

“One defeat and everyone is negative again. Saturday was a game that just didn't happen for the team, it wasn't that they didn't give 100% which a lot of people think is the only reason for a defeat. The reasons were that on the day some players had a bit of an off day and some things just didn't go the teams way. No crisis, just a hiccup. The team need to just be on guard so that they don't end up going in to the Charlton game (a must win game) on the back of 2 defeats as this will impact on confidence and create some tension that you don't want to be there.
Overall, just forget the league table and the other teams and think in terms of, if we keep the points ticking along at 2 per game we will be promoted come May.”

“Spot on Tonyglenparva
I hope Nigel got a wake up call as well as the team. He should have played merry hell at the break and told them all to pull finger. A really embarrassing defeat, and made us a laughing stock to get tipped up at London Road to the bottom placed Peterborough. Another loss tonight will really knock the confidence of the players. So it's imperative Nigel leaves JV "out" and brings in Futacs to pair Nugent. Also Kasper needs a clean sheet. I await the match with mixed feelings after the Posh debacle!!”

“Saturday should be a lesson learnt for everyone and that includes the Manager not just the team. It was a tremendous opportunity lost to go 3 pts clear when Hull have 2 more games to play before we play another league game. They would have been playing catch up and the most we could be behind would be 3pts with 2 games in hand.
But upward and oward lets hope we look back as this being just a blip.
Just a point on injuries, have we now lost more to training ground injuries than in playing time?”

“How on earth do you need a wake up call when you are 2nd in the league with the Premier League in sight and 4 teams breathing down your neck behind you??????
I would have thought that was enough of an incentive to give 100% commitment in every game!!!!!!!!!!!

Come on Leicester lets show everyone tonight that it was just a blip on saturday and beat Huddersfield in the same manner in which we beat them the last time they visited the King Power!!!!!!!!”

“It's difficult to win any match with 11 fit and able players. Stick folk in who are shot physically and mentally and you have very little chance. select the team thru common sense and not ego and give them a chance.”
