[Albion] Jonny Evans - Leaving the Pitch

[Lush]

I’d like to see some stats that show how often Leicester players go down injured when the opposite team are having a good run of play. Let’s just say they are a very well organised team who know how to manage the flow of a game from start to finish.

This.

It became more and more apparent. Every time we got a bit of momentum going, down a player would go, on came the trainer and all momentum was lost. It was a cynical ploy they carried out time and time again.

Only 3 mins stoppage time though - obviously...

6 substitutions
2 Goals (celebrations and centre)
Twice taken penalty
VAR checks
Injuries
Leicester time wasting

And only 3 minutes added time in 2nd half?

Radio listener yesterday guys but both commentators picked up on this so fair play for noticing yourselves. Seems cynical and a bit of bad gamesmanship eh.

How ridiculous was our corner from that though!?

Evans is off the pitch, so down to one centre half and we have a corner. What do we do with Webster, Duffy and Burn up in the box?

We play a training ground long pass out to beyond the penalty box and nothing at all transpires...as if I wasn't angry enough at that example of stupidity...

Our next corner we decide to tippy tappy around with it once it was cleared and concede a goal on the break. Brain dead for both corners. If we continue in that vain our corners will be more dangerous for the opposition than for us.

Yes , we should have had at least 6 maybe ,8 minutes of added time with all of what went on , ,
Dont think we would have scored though !

Some people seem to be blaming Potter for the daft floaty corner when Evans was off the pitch. FFS, whilst they might have worked out such a routine for A corner, he wouldn't have instructed them to make that play for THAT corner. One of the players - who was reading the game ?? - needed to say 'they're a CB down, get this on on Duffy's head 8 yards out' before the kick was taken. Simple. So ****ing frustratng - we even said before the kick was taken that it was a great chance to get something with Evans off. .

Yeah exactly. Really poor decision making twice in a row right when we'd got on top in the game.

Also I noted they delayed our subs getting on by passing it amongst themselves in defence for about 10-minutes.
