I think CL's comments are spot on and tbh most of his post match interviews are very honest, we are looking very good defensively, really solid and over the last few games we have restricted the opposition to very few goalscoring opportunities.
McCarthy and Gerrbrand have the makings of an excellent partnership, one that can be at the heart of Leicester's defence for many years to come, bear in mind as well that both players are still quite young, it bodes well for the future. Maybury looked more solid, I think that the time out of the team has helped him and given him a kick up the arse.
Yesterday's performance IMO was a decent team display, we defended very well as unit and looked very solid, we just lacked a little creativity and spark, until Smith came on, neither Sylla nor Hamill really shone and both lacked that cutting edge, CL however was right IMO to persist with these 2 as they had done well in previous games, although if Smith had played from the start IMO we would have won the game.
I would like to see us adopt the system used at Cardiff, it would allow us to still have 2 combative midfielders, whilst also being able to select either Williams or Hughes to provide that quality on the ball and vision, that was lacking yesterday. It would then allow Hume and Smith to play off De Vries, IMO this would allow Hume to get out wide pick up the ball and be able to really run at defenders, I think playing right down the middle isnt allowing Humey to get hold of the ball in space, because people are aware of his tricks, they are making it tight and we arent benefitting from his effectiveness, if he and Smith can play with attacking freedom and can get on the ball in decent areas of the pitch, with their pace and ability, we could really carve teams open.
