We can't afford to play games with Benfica over the fees, as soon as Leicester started controlling the midfield we couldn't disrupt them and wrestle back control, Krovi was the only player we had last season that could do that.
Was about to make almost the exact same post.
We were crying out for him in the second half especially.
We need another 4 or 5 players to stand any chance of competing.
The damage limitation abacus wielder in me says Lai should glue the biscuit tin until our 2021-2 promotion push
That defeat might be a blessing in disguise. Need 2 or 3 reinforcements minimum.
Do remember though Leicester have a good squad which is why they are top 6.

And half of them were out injured/suspended.
Krov HAS TO BE SIGNED.
It was the same against Newcastle in the cup we were battered until he came on and started keeping the ball and dictating our play.
You need quality ball players in the Premier League.
Albion need to stop fkng about and get him in NOW.
Get Gallagher in as well and Grant.

The Prem is 3 divisions in one. Leicester are now near cemented as a top 6 side. They have a good squad to carry 4 or 5 missing players.
There’ll be some real over reaction on this board today.
Truth is we got beaten by a good side and we haven’t really learnt anything much about ourselves other than we need new faces.
We got tonked 6 0 v Chelsea opening day after promotion some years ago and finished 11th. I’m not being a happy clapper as today was grim but really perspective is needed.
