Didn’t need to buy a forward

Absolutely pathetic offensively. Offered nothing. No vardy means the best we can hope for is 0-0.
Incompetence of the highest order not shopping for a forward.
 
Brendan should have brought Slim AND Albrighton on together, for Ian and Perez

Albrighton whipping in some crosses, slim on the penalty spot.

After coming on, our midefield were doing through passes and expecting a Vardy-esque response.

You have to play to people's strengths
 
At this rate, even DopeyDG might get another chance. Which speaks volumes for our squad depth.
 
He's a sluggish centre forward so why was he wandering about on both wings for most of the time he was on? Top needs to send Rodgers on a "Tactics for Dummies" course.

No. No he just shouldn't have brought him on at all. Nacho running without stamina still offers more. Switching Perez or Barnes centrally would've offered more. If he can't see during any sort of training session what those that were fortunate enough to watch that 'cameo' could see then Rodgers should be giving half his huge salary back this week.

He has said himself Vardy is carrying two long terms injuries (both for years) - so if you condition the entire team to play around that type of player then you've got to look short term at a player within the setup that short term can do similar (vaguely vaguely similar.

What we witnessed instead was a man so nervous and shot of any ability and confidence fall around the pitch like Morgan on stilts. It was a shambles. Bringing Albrighton on to feed the shambles would've broken those stilts.

Poor management to throw someone in who it looked like not a single member of the team has seen play before and knew how to play to him. A mess.
