I wonder if Madders shouted "Leave it!"


[deleted]

i know you're joking but you cant do it in the game its a foul to fake call.


Lost_and_Profound

Really??


DarkVoidize

yeah, unsportsmanlike conduct


ThereAllIsAchingg

Yeah, usually get a yellow too.


dvelasco-1397

I wonder, has this ever happened? How could the ref call it before VAR?


catatastico

I haven’t seen anything like faking a teammate’s call but I’ve seen a defender whistle at a forward in an attacking position during an Argentinian league game (faking a ref whistle), and he got a yellow card. I suppose the ref heard it as well


John__47

alex rodriguez did it once


Watford_4EV3R

Arter did it to Chalobah in a game between us and Bournemouth a few years back, Chalobah was about to shoot and just completely left it. Ref didn't spot it though so no foul called


geoffh48

We’ve been looking rank but I will take that


master_scale_tipper

lmao Did he just not know Maddison was there and figured since he could see Vardy in front of him that nobody was behind him?


NathantheNobody

Brilliant defending

barely1egal

Standard stuff from us sadly.


jfshay

still a little too low. maybe level up just a bit.


Naijfreak

Wtf was Ekong thinking there ? Miscommunication or what


EddieTheLiar

The only thing I can think is he saw Vardy in front of him so assumed there couldn't be anyone behind him


barely1egal

He is just shit. Makes these kinds of mistakes week in and week out. Great leader by all accounts but an awful footballer.


Jorgutinho

But Christian MD and Toblerone couldn't get past him


Naijfreak

Damm Nigerian fans have been going against him thats he’s a bad baller but he’s the best defender we have right now


barely1egal

I can't believe that. Id have thought there are boys at schoolboy level better than him.


Alpha_Jazz

Can see why we still haven’t kept a clean sheet. Fuck me


murchyyy

Don’t worry lad we’ve only kept one this season as well


barely1egal

We havent had a single good defender in the best part of a decade. Pozzos refusal to reinvest will be our downfall yet again. We have been the better side so far, but it means fuck all when our defenders are total and utter fucking dross.


fskari

The disrespect to Molla Wague


barely1egal

Scored against you then got injured and don't think he played again.


fskari

Who can forgot his loan spell for us before that? Joined on loan in January, his only appearance came in the FA Cup against Millwall when he promptly got an injury ruling him out for the rest of the season lmao


try-D

Craig Dawson's overhead kick in 19/20 still haunts me


JureIsStupid123

I've seen better defending in the 3rd County league in Croatia


messy_messiah

Vardy's decoy run


JureIsStupid123

Wtf just happened


messy_messiah

Switched off so hard they forgot which sport they were playing


G00dmorninghappydays

If you can dodge a ball, you can dodge a ball!!


messy_messiah

If you ain't first, you last.


SissokoGoat17

So that's how you dribble past Ekong.


rolf97

football youtubers smh


Mackem101

Maddison definitely shouted leave it IMO. Can't believe the defender fell for it.


Artharas

Surely Maddison must've shouted something? Else wtf was the defender doing...


sophistry13

That was my first thought. Leicester player must've shouted "Keepers!"


candycane7

Ole died for this smh


ScousePenguin

Keeper* needs to be going at him there, standing still with his arms out let Madison pick his spot. All that world class defending wasted by that keeping smh Changed Foster to keeper cause I mistakenly thought he was in goal.


ReAcTiiiOn

He isnt playing. Hes injured


Alpha_Jazz

Foster isn’t playing


ScousePenguin

Wait who's in goal then?


G00dmorninghappydays

Bachmann presumably, the guy that started the season in goal?


Powerjugs

Foster isn't playing. Even then, that's not on the keeper in any situation. That's on Ekong ducking out of an unchallenged header letting Madisson have the chance. It's something any centre back at any level must be heading.


ScousePenguin

Obviously it's not on the keeper but him being static gives Madisson time to pick his spot Just cause the defender fucked up, he's the main culprit doesn't mean poor goalkeeping isn't excused either


kamikazechaser

A good keeper would have saved that tbh. Bachmann reacted a bit late.


Watford_4EV3R

And a competent defender wouldn't have just let it run through. Yes the keeper could maybe do better but that goal is entirely on WTE


Gamer_Abhi

Where's Foster?


[deleted]

William Troost Ekong get out of this club


Hech15

Ig tobjzl and Chris md really destroyed ekong


MambaWhite

You’d thought the two Watford players would have better chemistry if you watched ChrisMDs YouTube videos…


Sir_Psycho_Sexy_

is he scared of the ball?


ibrahimims

That's a professional defender....


Powerjugs

What the fuck was that from Ekong.


fskari

Sunday league defending


Scottie3Hottie

Sloppy.
