Pffftttt. We've beaten the might of Swansea.Huddersfield have beaten Man U
Good to hear. N’Didi, Iborra and Silva might make for a good midfield next year.I thought that was a very good away performance. Not just a lot better than the plates full of shit we have been served up recently but a good performance full stop.
Mahrez was exceptional but Iborra was absolutely outstanding.
But they might let you down by losing to Huddersfield course.....Why the fizz do I put myself through this torture. Must be dead easy to follow one of the so called big boys.
I think he just freed up Ndidi (N'Didi) to get forward and be a little more creative. With Silva (S'Ilva) added it'll soon look like a real midfield rather than the pretend one we have seen so far.Good to hear. N’Didi, Iborra and Silva might make for a good midfield next year.
Thanks Pop.But they might let you down by losing to Huddersfield course.....
I think it was a little bit of 'shit, we can't let this slip' panic that set in. The performance, as an away one, was very good for me but I know what you mean. It shouldn't have been remotely close. If we'd have taken the earlier chances, we wouldn't have run out of 'magic dust'.Happy with the win. Not so thrilled with the performance.
We started so well and looked like we could tonk them. Then we went flat, let them get at us, lost our confidence and started playing hoofball.
Surely King was supposed to play in the space that Okazaki did? To provide something between our deep midfield and Vardy. Too often I watched Fuchs size up a hoik upfield.
Plus side; we won and we looked good for a while. Just not so pleased with us running out of whatever we ran out of.
Iborra looked good. He's a calming influence and knows where to be and when to put his foot on the ball. A good signing. I hope Silva, whenever he comes on stream, will be likewise. We might then have a midfield.
He was much better today. He's been awful for a long time but he was afforded a little more time and space thanks to Iborra which made him a little more active. If we can use this as a springboard to cement that midfield it will really help Ndidi.I personally would drop Ndidi like a stone if we had another half decent midfielder to fill the gap. Let's hope Adrien Silva is that man. For now we'll have to make do/hope Ndidi bucks the **** up as he has been shit this season. I was perplexed by Fuchs, surely in that situation it would be better to bang it down the channel for Vardy to chase rather than a long and high ball - a header he's never gonna win and even if he did, there's never any support around to feed off where the ball lands. I felt we were running out of steam a bit towards the end but could be down to nerves due to league position. I think it was the best I've seen us play this season.
