Match Thread Leicester v Barcelona ICC

[Motown Fox]

Perhaps it was Musa's clone playing previously. He looks a different player tonight.

 

[Blaarev]

If we ever play a front four of Schlupp, Vardy, Musa and Gray - no team is getting anywhere near them.

Hopefully the ball will.

Ah, that's a shame - poor from the two on the right hand side

Never mind, we've looked good in this half

Feel much better now.

Starting to think Shinji is basically undroppable.

 

[Sack]

Much more positive after that second half.

 

[Graz]

Musa was superb. Should've had a pen, plenty of good turns.

Looks like a faster, more skilful version of Vardy on that performance. Suspect Vardy is the more clinical but can't wait to see them both in the team

 

[Rock Fox]

Much better 2nd half ( obviously) but conceded 8 goals in two games?

In friendlies. Against the Spanish and French champions.

Pffft. We're ****ed.

I missed the first half as I thought it kicked off at 8. Glad of my stupidity.

Much improved in the second half. In the first half we took too long about decision making and were often forced into errors. Second half we were nipping it around much better and really coped well with Barcelona's pressing. Restricted them to the one opporunity in the second half which they were clinical with again. Musa looked great tonight. Two great goalsd and probably should have had a penalty. He was a pain for the Barca defense. Good for Kapustka to get a run out even though he's probably not even had chance to train properly with the team yet! Mendy also starting to look a bit more solid in the middle. The level of our own pressing also improved in the second half, don't think we're going to miss Kante too much if we close down like we did.

You can't switch off for a second against these quality players and you have to be clinical with your chances. Very positive second half performance to take into the season.

Some real girly bedwetters on here

Great runout that was, very decent 2nd half.

Imagine if we had a player like that Mahrez too

 

[Sack]

At least Vardy got away from his missus for 45 mins!

It did. In Sweden.
