It befuddles me why Bilic persists with Antonio at right back. How many times does it take to realise that it doesn't work? He should be rotating the squad more and picking a more solid back line. Coilins or Tomkins are unable to get any play time. I don't think Reid and Ogbonna work. What will he do for the Manure game? Is Bilic stubborn or does he see something long term but our defence has been leaking goals at an accumulative rate lately. I have to say the big players today also underperformed- Payet, Lanzini really poor. Carrol got outmuscled most of the time though he had few crosses that came to him. Moses is shit lazy and good riddance. Bilic must tinker with this side to end the season on a high not a whimper. Defence is as important than attack though I wouldn't want to go back to an Allardyce situation. Com on Slav, get some self respect back. That performance was shocking.
Antonio isnt a right back but
Antonio isnt a right back but at the same time I could understand why he was played there when we had injuries. Personally i dont think the issue is just antonio. Moses offered him no protection and was lazy as usual, Reid is dogshit, never been a big fan of him and Kouyate like usual again has no positional sense what so ever and often leavest he 2 cb's exposed.
Moses
Its no wonder he is sent out on loan as he will never be consistent or an asset, he's one of the laziest players I have ever seen and his wages should be docked for todays embarassing display.

His lack of effort and tracking back on Saturday was unacceptable...I was surprised he started to be honest.
been saying it for a while now
but our defence needs a lot of work for the coming transfer window.....cressy gets injured who comes in? byram is fit but for some reason slavs not playing him and you have to ask why when the only other RB is J.OB has he seen something in training that has made him think twice about byram? all this talk of big money for a striker well I hope we have money left in the kitty for the defence! we have some very good youngsters thatmany clubs are eyeing up so maybe now its time to give one or two a chance......as for the game I have not seen it but I am not going to go overboard after such an incredible season you are going to get the odd bad performance and coming after 10 matches unbeaten I think we can forgive them for it.

Being a manager has to be a bit of a dictatorship, but bilic needs to open his mind on somethings and stop being so stubborn and bloody minded, itl make him a better manager. No team ever wins games defending like we did today and no team wins cups or championships defending like we do so often. Leicesters season has been built on disciplined and effective defending as well as anything.
I think Byram played the
I think Byram played the whole 120 minutes vs Hull for the under 21's in the week so I can see why Slav wouldn't pick him.
Surely he'll be considered for tomorrow night though?
Or, you could have...
... Allardyce football. I stick with Slav, attacking football that for once didn't come off yesterday, im still happy with this type of football which has come on miles from the days of 19th Century football under that muppet BFS!
I'm not critising Slavs
I'm not critising Slavs football just the amateur way we behaved yesterday. If my kids team totally boycotted defensive duties like that they wouldn't reach half time! How can everyone just charge forward with no thought to defence! Non league players don't act like that let alone pros that are internationals there is no excuse from Slav or the players. We can't use allardyce as an excuse for playing like kids! Haven't been confident in Slav and his brain fart decisions since the cup defeat against manure.
What else would one expect
What else would one expect from a player who knows he is on his way in a weeks time. Funnily enough I thought Moses played well earlier in the season. The manner of the defeat worried me more than the actual defeat. Tomorrow night is the one this team dare not lose. So I hope for a big improvement and send the Boleyn into retirement with a home win.
