i think vardy was getting no joy from vdv, moved over to romero and romero got to casual because it had all been to easy for him all night and missed vardy.

You don't mark zonal in that situation. Porro wasn't near to getting back to cover that area. All other areas were already covered and he should've stayed on Vardey, no excuse for it.I see why he's getting the blame for the goal, it did seem like ball watching idiocy, but we know we defend zonal, maybe Porro should have been picking that slot up?

Romero definitely poor for the goal but Porro needs to do more to get back to try to help him too. He was jogging.
He doesn't need help. He's right next to Vardy.
He quite clearly needed help. Vardy scored
If he did his job then he didn't need help.He quite clearly needed help. Vardy scored
Sarr was goalside until Romero came across and he moved because of that. It's Cuti's fault plain and simple.There’s loads of issues. Romero is picking up a player. If that’s Sarr’s player, why is he not goal side? Why is Porro slowly jogging back to cover the back post, where he should be? Where he is often not? Why is Romero so much deeper than VDV and Porro?

And the question should be why did Romero Vardy unmarked, not why is he deeper than VdV.
Romero literally walked past vardy, why does he not step up and play offside, everyone else is in a line and vardy is off.There’s loads of issues. Romero is picking up a player.

I have a feeling there will be a huge over reaction to his mistake
It was poor
He is quality and will play better many many more times for us
This is essentially why Sarr is so important. And why we've been linked with more high energy midfielders with Ange saying that Bergvall and Gray need to work on their physical profile.It's more how we set up when under attack. We struggle tp score when other teams have 5 men on the 6 yard line. We need the fullbacks and cms have more urgency returning ...this positional discipline is what u seeing other teams . All I can think is that ange prioritizes attack way more than most. Unfortunately, it won't work in the epl as it did in the japan/aussie league and Asian international Cup. Give them an opening , most epl teams are going to score.
Which is why Ange should have made more subs at 55-60 mins; we know players are going to tire in these first few games.I think we looked some way off our physical peak against Leicester. We tired despite dominating and I wouldn't be surprised if the players were pushed really hard in preseason and not expected to be near their peak physically yet.
On the contrary, a manager that wins things wouldn't keep praising him after what he did against Chelsea last season and would look to replace him with better. Basically he is making mistakes in part because Ange cannot replace him.Of course he will its only kneejerking by some to say he needs moving on. He made a mistake its not as he does it that often.

Hardly a knee-jerk comment when I am referring to him letting Ange down last season, not to mention Conte the season before. Bloke has lapses in concentration that costs Champions League places never mind Premier League titles. No idea why Ange thinks he can win with Spurs.Keep that knee jerking going.![]()
