Leicester played well, this is their season of 38 cup finals and they're likely to stay up - but we should have been ahead at HT if we'd had any real urgency about us and we should have had enough creativity to go with all that second half pressure. On the other hand, we were playing Leics plus their tame ref, we should have had at least one pen and were genuinely unlucky not to scramble one in somehow or other towards the end. Well pissed off at the dropped points today but it's left me in more of a bad day at the office mood than a blame the world mood so...
6* from me

5 right team to start, poor once the game changed after their subs, took too long to doing anything about it.

Too slow to react with subs and poor subs when they finally came.

I'm not good at stuff like that so i won't give a mark to mark. Vat about zee marks?
The one thing that does frustrate me about Mr. Hughes is his substitutions, bugged me on occasions last season and i don't know if i'm in a minority here but i feel we really needed a substitution BEFORE they scored.
55 minutes or summat, Leicester had a good spell and it clearly wasn't working for us in an attacking sense and bringing on Arnautovic or maybe Adam to give us a lift was called for.
Instead, he waits until the bloody 75th minute to make his first substitution! It had me a little bit miffed, i don't mind telling you!

3* from me. Ok team, changes should of been made at half time. It was clear from the first half we were never gonna score.
Hughes is shit with subs as well!

3/10 from me
-1 for not starting Arnie -1 for starting Bojan -1 for not bringing Arnie on -1 for not taking off Bojan much sooner -1 for not capaitalising on the complete dominance SJW had on one flank of their defence -1 for subbing SJW -1 for bringing on Assaidi
After a 10/10 last match, this was on off day for LMH.

I looked at the bench and there sat Diouf all nice and relaxed. He should have been warming up at the very fcuking least.

*6 from me. Poor finishing cost us today. We looked good in parts. Thought Hughes should've used his subs earlier, the game was crying out for pace up front.

It was clear to see from the villa game that teams will come the Britannia with a game plan to sit deep to nullify our pace and then try and pinch a goal. A bit similar to how we played under pulis. Villa did it superbly and again Leicester did too. I'm giving you a big fat 0 sparky for not learning from your mistakes!! We will beat newcastle as they are daft and throw the lot at you so it will suit our style of play. But against the teams who come with there stall set out then Hughes simply has to figure out a solution to break these sides down

Poor from Hughes. He picked the wrong team from the outset and that caused him a headache with what subs to use and when.
Our defeat today has much to do with Hughes mistakes with the starting 11.
Walters and Crouch should NEVER be starters against teams of similar or lesser ability than us.

0. Hughes had an absolute shocker. Wrong starting xi and wrong subs at the wrong time. We are at home to Leicester and starting Walters on the wing! Baffling. How the fuck he left Arnie and Adam on the bench for 95 minutes il never know. He's had a shocker today and doesn't have a clue who his best xi is. I'm a Hughes fan but his tactics in 3 out of our 4 opening games have been utterly hapless.

5* too late with subs, starting walters at home, needed a proper winger. 2 on bench. Bojan should have been subbed earlier, on 60 mins

I really don't know what happened in the second half. Clueless subs.

6 - a big improvement on Villa, but didn't make his subs quickly enough, when the game opened out. Walters should have come straight off, and in fact I wouldn't have him in the team in home games. Adam should have also come on for Nzonzi second half.

3 from me.
Starting Walters at home against a team that is going to park the bus is just daft. Konchesky was a glaring weak link on paper, we should have targeted him from the off with pace. His face must have lit up when he saw he was up against Walters. To take 80 minutes to realise this is inexcusable.
Adam and Assaidi/Arnoutovic should have been on for Bojan and Walters early in the second half. His substitutions are his Achilles heal.

Tactically one of his worst showings for me

7 for me, we knew what the problem was, we had plenty of shots, corners and opportunities. Had the players had the same urgency with which they finished the game earlier, we may have had a result.

Just 2 of those umpteen chances today go in and he's a 10 and everybody's hero.
Nobody likes losing but the shit spouted after a defeat is frankly laughable...
