I watched the second half and it was pretty even, but Ndidi had a free header to score Leicester's goal and Madders had a clear chance with only the keeper to beat near the end but he blasted over.
A point looks the least we could get. Wouldn't it be great if we got all three? "You're getting sacked at Teatime Frank"!
It's going to be a terrific test for us and fantastic to be on Sky, so that fans around the world can see the difference in how we defend after our opening game!!
Chelsea completely lost their way yesterday after a blistering start. Apparently Madders led the fight back. A Pukki brace on Saturday would be nice!
Just read a very interesting article on the BBC Sport website concerning Pukki. He has broken records since his arrival at CR. The price for his services must be sky high now, but I don’t think he will be tempted away this season.
I will be cynical for a change, but Pukki is in last pay day saloon, if he continues in his current vein and still is at the top of the scoring charts come January, I'd expect interest, but would like to think both he and the club will hold firm. The summer is another matter. The lure of as much as quadruppling his salary, perhaps competing for trophy's or to play in Europe will be very tough to turn down given he will be the wrong side of 30. Even from our side, as much as he is key to our success, could/should/would we turn down £30m+for a 30 year old? Are Drmic, Srbeny, Morris or Idah going to be ready to take over next season? Or can Webber pull another rabbit from his hat? Bah!
This has been in the back of my mind too. I suppose the answer will only reveal itself come January or end of season, where if we stay up I expect an improved deal on the table for Pukki to keep him at NR1.
