Yeah Bennett realises a split second too late.
And Manga is caught out of position few times a game unfortunately.
Sloppy goal definitely.
Another shambles of a goal from a defensive point of view. Morrison is also pointing at the invisible man to go and cover Manga instead of going across himself.
Not sure what manga is supposed to do he can’t cover 2 men
Not Manga's fault!
Agreed. Where was our right sided midfielder.Quote:

Not totally his fault but he allows himself to get dragged around and starts chasing the ball too easily. He should have made it harder for them to get behind him so easily rather than trotting into midfield to close down then running round in circles.Quote:

Very slow from Bennett though. Shame as I thought he had an ok game actually.
Agree he should have had more support BUT as the move progressed he leaves Chilwell and gets caught neither closing Albrighton down or tracking Chilwell.Morrison shouts and points at the danger , maybe Morrison could have gone to Chilwell?
All I all , It’s yet another poor goal conceded this season , I thought we needed a right back all summer as many others did and Manga is trying his best but should be playing centre half.
Bennett has been very good so far this season- our left side with him and Murphy has been a real strength, but he was kipping for the goal and needs to switch on.Quote:

Is it really anyone's fault.
We are at least 5 players short of a decent lower premier league club.
Chilwell looked very bit the class player the media make out. To have a player like that at left back is a major plus for any side..
Manga was caught out a few times, but was left isolated by the rest of his team. When he went to mark someone a Leicester player overlapped behind him and wasn't picked up. Bennett was generally very good yesterday apart from when he was slow to react when Gary scored. Playing a proper striker up front and getting proper right back would help the team immensely.
I haven't seen the goal back, so can't comment. What I have noticed is that Morrison doesn't like to move from his central position when Manga is in trouble, and he should, it's his job, basic stuff. If the ball is coming down our right, then a central defender should pull across and help the fullback, all that happens then is that the left back and left midfielder drops in, with the left back covering for Morrison and the left midfielder covering for the left fullback. Manga isn't great, but Morrison does leave him isolated on times.Quote:

Didn’t notice that, but did notice Gunnar getting robbed in the build up and then standing and moaning after it. Don’t think that helped.Quote:

All started when Gunner was caught in possession and went from there.
