I think we can put the terrible first half performance down to Ranieri wearing that shocking cap due to the rain. He looked a right tit bless him and brought nightmares back of a certain Mr Levein. Thank god the rain stopped so he was able to take it off
De Laet got little help against a player like Gradel, got carded, looked close to getting another yellow ... here comes Benelouane for the save!! .... **** ... can we bring De Laet back on .... We just got rid of a clumsy fullback and we've bought one for the other wing! If we sign that japanese fullback then i wouldn't be surprised if he came straight into the side. Would Mahrez have done better with the chances Dodoo got? maybe, think it was a mistake to bring Dodoo straight in after Bury, especially at the cost of Krammy on the bench.
A marauding right back would be my priority - de last worries me and benaloune doesn't exactly bomb the flank. That would complete us a strong team
Schlupp and Kante was superb, Vardy done brilliantly to win the penalty and then to score it. Drinkwater and King never got a foothold in the game
Just read that Mahrez came off at half time due to a knock he took in the first couple of minutes of the game.
Happy overall though, another point towards 40 away from home, but i think a few performances could lead to a bit of ... lets say ... tinkering
Roll on Inler and Kante playing together. That will be quality. Need to see much more from Benny to be convinced about him. In expecting the red to blow his whistle for a foul every time the ball goes in his direction
Their keeper could have sat in a deck chair all match and the result would have been the same. I know I shouldn't moan as we are yet to be beaten but that was pretty awful. Be happy with a point I suppose and look forward to Villa.
It is but I feel they were there for the taking today. You just come away feeling that if we played like we had in the last 3 games we could have won. To start with one striker seemed dense when we have been so good with two
