Post Match Swansea 1 Leicester 2

Ndidi is young kid and has lots to learn but the potential is there for all to see. Iborra settling in should grow in the next few games. Suddenly the world is a little better to be in

Ndidi will learn. I think with Iborra alongside him he'll come on. He does get stuck in, gets some good tackles in, but he can be a tad rash and gets drawn out of position. I like him and can only see him getting better.

Same team against Leeds please, why is it Albrighton never gets a mention he was good against West Brom and even better today.
Shinji was outstanding again I think he has 4 in 4 now

You are right lazzer,Ndidi is a young lad,he's had a lot of unfair resposibility dumped in his lap. He has done well, considering the shite that's been going on at the club.

Mahrez MOTM for me - at his best in this game. Some of his touches were delicious and he was back defending too including stopping a very good chance for them first half. Not sure why he came off and not Albrighton who appeared knackered by the 80th min.

Iborra played the best I've seen him play. Agree that Ndidi was poor again. Can't fault his enthusiasm but gave the ball away a lot.

Not sure I can pick out anyone else to criticise they played well. Vardy should have scored. In fact we could have gone in at HT 2 or 3 up and it wouldn't have flattered us. We did panic a bit when they scored but held it together in the end.

Up to 13th. Surely any manager considering coming here will be encouraged now.

As long as Big Sam and pals do not change their mind.

We should insist that our new manager's surname ends in a vowel to be certain of getting a good one.

Enrique, Ancelotti, Pellegrini or Dyche!

Because of Brian my journey from Cardiff took around 2 hours with the motorway closed in parts so arrived at the stadium just to hear our cheers for the first goal from outside the ground. At least I finally saw us score at Swansea in the second half. Excellent performance. Iborra was great as were others, I thought Ndidi really struggled and at the moment is causing far too much pressure by giving the ball away. Sat too deep too quickly but an excellent away performance.

Better performance today - we looked a bit ragged for about the next 10 minutes after they scored, but regained composure to see it out. Very important 3 points.

Completely different team you could see the tactics that were being requested.

Mahrez to move more central to support, no constant need to counter attack with every ball, such a different Leicester. Makes you wonder if Shakey didn’t have a clue or it’s just new Manager syndrome

 

[Brown Nose]

1. 1. Michael Appleton: “It’s very satisfying and the players are really pleased in there. Today was a controlled performance"
   2. “Once we got the second, I thought let’s get through the next 10 minutes, and the next 10 after that"
   3. "It was a sloppy goal to concede but we were in control. The first 30 minutes were outstanding"
   4. "There were signs in the last game why we bought Iborra into the side, and today he showed that even more"
   5. "Iborra allows us to play, and let’s other players know they can play”
   6. "Wilf is very athletic, but sometimes we’d like a bit more control from him. Iborra’s performance today was huge for us. At times we were 442, at times we were 4411 and sometimes 451. It’s about managing the game”
   7. “Okazaki has an understanding of the role, and an enthusiasm that motivates other players. He grew into the game”
   8. “Mahrez was certainly back close to where I expect him to be. He put a shift in for the team and got two assists. He just needed a goal"

My spell check keeps correcting Rudkin to Ruskin.. now there’s a polymath who’d have walked the DOF role.

 

[popillius]

That's odd. Mine changes it to '****'.

 

[alex]

Wow.

Wasn't expecting that - but from my prawn sarnie' seats, that was man v boys. Leicester were so far the better team it was a tad embarrassing.

Players standing out : Mahrez, Iborra, Maguire, Okazaki and Vardy all incredible. Albrighton, N'Didi and Morgan not far behind.

Really good performance from our boys today. More please.

 

[City Fan]

Mahrez, Iborra, Vardy, Okazaki - all superb.

Decent away performance I thought. Yes Swansea were poor and we conceded a sloppy goal, but the best performance for a long long time.

Andy King was absolute pony.

 

[alex]

No he wasn't.

Albrighton was our worst player today imo
