Both strikes were poacher strikes. Funny thing is, he is actually getting into the spaces Vardy used to get into, and I don't think it's by mistake. I think Bredan Rogers is managing the transition very well. Kele will lead the Leicester lines next season woth Vardy supporting and if this is what we should expect, they will be very dangerous.

actully they need to buy another striker, they are so much better with 2 strikers playing. Also Kele will be heading to Cameroon come january

Hmmm....na siddon look

Nacho got his chance and grabbed it with both hands; the tactical transition to two upfront was due to Maddison/Barnes getting injured

The preferred formation was Vardy upfront solo; Nacho would sub in for Vardy as a lone striker and struggled because that’s not his strength

When everyone is fit, it will be interesting to see what Otunba Rodgers does.....I suspect back to status quo cuz Vardy isn’t scoring right now.....

Amazing what confidence can do to a player!

The psychological element of football never ceases to fascinate me.

Yes!

[tedder89]

Why? Bowen was on side when the pass was made and same for Lingaard for the assist.....

Lingard was offside when Bowen received the ball. As I understand it from frequent observation, when the first pass goes to a player who came back onside from an offside position, he is usually ruled offside. The goal, IMHO, should have been disallowed


Cheers.

Very true, but football is my thing and what I've been observing all my life.

Did you see the recent report on how the effect of the pandemic has removed home advantage?
The figures are astonishing.
Psychology is also why I started to look into the effect of dark jerseys on dark-skinned teams... which you promised to look into further by the way.

Separate phase of play is my understanding; once Bowen received the ball Lingaard’s position at the time the ball was played out of defense no longer had any bearing on the new phase

I strongly disagree. In the new phase that you’re talking about, Lingard was initially offside. Had Bowen shot on goal and scored, there would be no dispute whatsoever but he didn’t shoot on goal. He elected to pass the ball to a previously offside Lingard. I insist the goal shouldn’t have counted


Cheers.

It’s ok, just say you don’t understand the phases of the current offside rule. You really think if it were clearly offside nobody would be talking about it? Only you understands the offside rule while Leicester team/coaches/fans/the world are ignorant?

If you want to educate yourself you can click on the link below but we all know you won’t...so let me paraphrase, he wasn’t offside in the initial phase of play since he wasn’t interfering with the play and again wasn’t offside on the next phase of play since he was behind the ball before the pass for the goal.

A change to the rule was introduced two years ago, which allows a player to be in an offside position provided they are not "actively involved in play"

Thanks for explaining it much better than I ever could.....

[TonyTheTigerKiller]

You guys are just a bunch of yes men, who cling to whatever ruling the ref makes, right or wrong. Even the article you pointed me to says quite clearly that the offside rules aren’t clear cut. Besides, there is a reason why the ref took almost 4 minutes to make a decision. If it were that clear cut, why did it take that long to make a decision? Clearly, there was some doubt about the circumstances

TTTK is legendary for his arguments on offsides.
Even with graphics he will continue to argue blindly, so good luck with getting him to "educate" himself.
If you push too hard, e go turn to insult.

Two threads in which he was making a donkey of himself arguing his opinion on 'Offside":

Best of luck in your attempts to get him to take the road to Damascus.
