Match Thread Leicester v Burnley

[LeeCovFox]

This is ****ing shit, isn’t it? I don’t mean the game itself. I mean watching on on the telly under these circumstances. I’ve enjoyed some of the other games this weekend, as a neutral. Lots of goals, no stake in it.

But watching your own club in a stadium you’re used to being in, and full. I don’t ****ing feel anything. What’s the point?

Good play for our goal. Vardy and Castagne both did very well, great composure.

Annoying to concede first but at least we bounced back quickly - I was worried that could be it at 1-0!

We are clearly on top, so think a second will come. But think we might need to wait for Maddison to come on.

Perez has barely been involved today.

Justin could've maybe done better but Wood was just stronger really.

Even so, handball and a shove over. No foul play. Remarkable.

If that was the other way round it would of been a penalty for a push.

It might have been a handball last season but the rules have changed. It definitely wasn't handball.

For me, it wasn't a foul either. It was weak.

It was weak defending but was a clear push in the chest. Justin wasn't out muscled by a shoulder barge.

It’s okay to practice corners. #cornersmatter

I think we've done well. Really bad defending again from Justin for their goal but otherwise we've done well. Ndidi and Barnes have been especially good. Perez and Justin are the weak links. Still can't understand why we're playing Justin at LB when he looked ok at RB last season and Castagne has more experience there. Having said that, he'd have his hands full with McNeil today. Castagne has felt well with him but can't say I'd have confidence in Justin to do the same...

I do think Tim Castagne is quality. I'm impressed so far.

I reckon I could take better corners than YT.

I wish KS wouldn't play those chip passes into midfield. Mendy is 2 foot nothing and Belgians aren't taught to head the ball. Anything in the air in the midfield is just giving the ball away.

I actually thought we started brightly enough but kind of got all wobbly once they scored. We've had good enough possession, and looked pretty sharp on odd occasions, we're just not putting it together in the places that matter. We ought have enough about us to win this, even with Burnley packing their defence.

 

[Graz]

I do think Tim Castagne is quality. I'm impressed so far.

Me too. Also noticing he doesn't attack quite like a typical full back. He's not all down the wing, he makes runs inside too. Pops up in the middle a lot. Gets forward a lot for sure.

If he can do it as well on the left as he can on the right he's a, great, signing

 

[Jeff]

Goal!

 

[tedfoxxx]

Castagne assist for an own goal.

Wow, he's doing well so far

 

[sparky79]

Magnificent from Tielemans. Another assist from Castagne. Lovely stuff.
