Respected? Talksport. NSNO, The Express. Toffeeweb?

Not a description I'd give them, tbh.

Haha, absolute desperation Mr Dave.

Name a source you'd be happy with.

How about the BBC?

Tabloid headline really. Although it´s done by broadsheets like the Guardian too so I guess its not just a tabloid thing.

It´s at the very least debatable what he meant by those comments.

The headline makes it sound 100% like he mentions the fans. Which he doesn´t at all.

He has a point if he did mean that though, although he shouldn´t say it.
 
Home record - poor
Away record - one of best in the league

How would you explain it?

We get done by counter attacks at home. And team sit back more, so we score less from them.

His comments are either laughable or designed to produce a siege mentality within the squad. Either way it doesn't really matter.

If there was a viable alternative I'd get rid in the summer. Though I can't think of anyone decent / with a shred of integrity who would work for the current board.
 

Oh I've no doubt the fans make the players nervous. But to use us to mask their deficiencies in defence is pure out-house by the manager. I can honestly say I've never booed a player, maybe at a ref decision.

Yeah agree mate, ultimately nobody can be happy with this, to be fair i think he is a bit of a fraud to be fair never are fault always a ref or a bit of luck and according to him were always phenomenal, yet were in the bottom half look at Leicester as a club we should at least be top 10 such a poor season and its his 2nd no result Wednesday he has to go

How would you explain it?
The set up and tempo of the team. Bit more defensive and play a higher tempo, unsettle the opposition. A higher predisposition to mix it up and go long. I'd never say that a more diehard boozed up singing set of fans behind you wouldn't help, but this is a minor percentage in terms of us being absolute mince at home. I used to prefer the atmosphere at the smaller gate home matches under Moyes but we were STILL consistent.
