    Winning is all that matters. I've never seen a side promoted yet that were good all season. The key is to win when you're not at your best, which is exactly what we did.

    I think he/she meant our overall play in that game could of been better & our overall football in the next game needs to improve a touch. I didn´t see the game so I can´t really comment to much, but I doubt he´s having ago about having 23 from 30 pts & being joint top :)

    It's the pace in the side - Vardy has won the most and also RDL ... Vardy's first instinct is to get into the box as quickly as possible which is paying bonuses - one thing to stress, he is no Ashley Young, the defenders are doing the 'diving' here not Vardy - diving in because that first burst catches them out - great tactic - he either gets a shooting chance or is clattered.

    I don't know which game they were watching then, because I certainly didn't see 42 shots in the game <confused>

    Also, glad to see NP agrees with what I said earlier in the thread,

    "We should of been out of sight, let´s be honest."

    "We could of had six."

    "On another night we could of been frustrated by having not putting them out of sight."

    "It´s a good win."

    "It could of been more convincing, but we will improve."


    My point was that as a top of the table side, we should be putting teams like Yeovil to the sword. Although last season we would probably have lost this game.

    In fact didn't we lose against all the relegated sides last season???

    Oh just one more thing, Jeff Schlupp, I was really looking forward to watching this young man when he came on as a sub, but I was very disappointed with him, to my mind he didn't really put a shift in, I know he only came on in the last 10 minutes, but he just didn't seem to want to chase things down, unlike Vardy who never stopped harrying and chasing all night.

    Ah well time for work.

    Regards

    Seems that Pearson shares some of my concerns - we need to be converting around the 1 in 3 to 1 in 4 mark IMHO .... because we may find the number of goal attempts constricted against some of the better teams ... if you contrast our win at Yeovil with QPR (just going from my recollection of the BBC reporter on Final Score) Yeovil played really well against QPR who, according to the reporter, defended well and scored with their only clear cut chance ... now yes we scored two goals rather than just the one but we will not always have the luxury of that many chances ... shooting practice this week lads!

    Amazing support. Most clubs would be happy with that number of travelling fans on a Sat let alone mid week and miles away. Well done to all who went.
