F.A. Cup 5th round - Norwich vs Leicester

It's not so much of an 'shock' in my eyes, we went in with nothing to lose and you concentrated on your league form.

 

It's a shock to us that we played so poorly.

 

A lot of the top teams we beat this season (Southampton, Cardiff) said the same thing. We made you look poor with constant pressing, good defending and sharpness in attack.

 

Well played today guys, deserved win and good luck on the play off push and your next cup match... bit dissapointed we didnt really turn up today but take nothing away from your win

 

Norwich are where they are on merit and we lost at Watford in the week - so let's not get ahead of ourselves - having said that we know we have been underachieving up until now but hopefully this result should breed confidence and we'll go on a nice little run culminating in 3 trips to Wembley!!!!

Good luck to Norwich for the rest of the season - don't think they are in any danger andhopefully we'l see them again soon!!

 

Listening to Radio Leicester now, have to disagree with two things Alan Young has said:

1) You could tell the officials were Prem quality. Wrong. The officials got two major decisions wrong today. I can also think of a crucial offside (wrongly given against us) and a corner (not given to us) that they got wrong.

2) Danns was superb today. I disagree. Every time Norwich countered, Danns seemed to be the last Leicester player to touch the ball. Still Wellens and Drinkwater for me.

That is all.

 

Agreed. Danns worked hard but didnt do much. The ref got the 2 major decisions wrong

Absolutely buzzing!! magnificent all the#highriskarmy were today pure noise glad they can go home with a smile on the faces!! Last 8 wow

 

Bitterness is an ugly trait, we deserved the win.

 

You did deserve the win, but you could clearly see we played bloody woeful today, every pass was going astray, descions being made were wrong by our players and it has to be up there as one of or maybe the worst performance of the season but hey ho! You certainly played us on the right day tbh...

 

I think we've met alot of teams that have been out of form recently, if Southampton and Cardiff played as bad as they did against us all season, they'd be fighting relegation.
Taking nothing away from the players though, think they have played very well recently, and will take this win as a great confidence boost.
