One for all the people slagging Mayenda today.

I commented on the other thread that it’s a bit odd that people are ripping the shit out of Mayenda for a mistake rising from his lack of experience but essentially let off paddy after he missed that pen the other week. Give the kid a break man. Onto the next
 
1st half was so poor. 2nd half kind if paper over the cracks to a point. Midfield went awol for 45 mins, mayenda is so weak as piss on the wing. Good point in the end.

At this stage last season, Leicester had 58 pts and Ipswich 52.
The playoff places were 36-45 compared to 37-45 this year and relegation was 13-20 compared to 18-19 this year. The top two were stronger and the bottom team was weaker last year but there's no basis for saying that the "league" was stronger. All the others are distributed much as they were.

So it seems that it’ll be easier to get promoted this season than last?

Amazing isn't it. Apart from his lack of composure he had a very good game.
Looked dangerous on the ball at 19 years of age in a position he's had about 3 senior games in .
Yet people saying he's a waste of a shirt . Do they know anything about football ? I do wonder sometimes if Im watching a different game to them .
 
Not a recruitment issue ?
Our bench was weak as pish today. That’s a recruitment issue.
No worse than Blackburn's- and the exact same thing happens repeatedly, regardless of who is on the bench. We make one change and concede late to a team who makes 5 changes.

There were at least 4 players of championship quality on the bench- it's Let Bris' job to figure out how to hold on to games and how to counter opposition tactics and changes.
