We didn't shoot at the right times. Got in great positions over and over but then made the wrong decision. Stats say we had 18 shots today. QPR had 3 supposedly but I can only recall the 2 for their goals if I'm honest.

In the last 2 home games we've had 42 shots whilst the opposition have had just 8 and yet we've lost both games, scoring 2 and conceding 4.

All true but 1.6 points per game until the end of the season gets us to 96 points, which you'd hope would see us finish second at least.

I think Dyche teams are the closest to this kind of football these days. I'm amazed how many times Pickford wellies it down the pitch to the big man up top so that Everton can pick up second balls. In the home game against them last season Pickford was launching balls into our penalty area from free kicks just inside the Everton half! And he was doing this in the first half, not in desperation at the end of the game.

This is massive news. A reminder below of Ndidi's importance to the team: League games when Wilf has played this season: P21 W18, D2, L1 PPG 2.67 League games when Wilf hasn't played this season: P13 W7 D1 L5 PPG 1.69

I think the conversion rate of big chances is a better measure of finishing quality than the shots to goals ratio. I suspect we do well on the latter as we take very few long shots and generally try to work a good opening before we shoot.

To be fair, over the season our conversion rate of big chances is 44%. We have created 104 (already more than Burnley over the whole of last season with 13 games to go) and scored 46 of them.

The rule says 15% of the capacity has to be given to away teams. So we should get 6k.

According to the official stats, we've created 11 big chances in the last 3 games, and missed 9 of them!!

One of life's mysteries is how little attention and credit this guy gets from non- Leicester media and pundits. One of my favourite City players in 40+ years supporting the club.

Despite fearing the worst beforehand, I enjoyed every single minute of that!

True but if it gets to pens, which is extremely unlikely given the line up, I would be tempted to sub him on for them. He's actually got a good record in shoot outs.

I think you are right. Feel bad for fans who are travelling a long way to the game tonight. As we live in London, I did think about getting tickets for my boys and I; very glad that I didn't bother now. Just hope we don't get an absolute pasting.

Not sure momentum shifted that much after your subs came on. You weren't putting us under any kind of real pressure before the first goal which basically came from a lucky ricochet. Then the other goals were deflections. You just lucked out tbh.

Dear God, is this boring Leeds fan still droning on about the fact that Leeds are actually the best team if you randomly discount a load of games because they don't fit his narrative? People have been banned for less on here. Personally, I don't think the result on Friday should be counted as clearly the better team lost the game.

What do you expect from a Forest fan? Can't stand the bloke.

Rice playing the Ndidi role as an 8 for Arsenal tonight, pressing and winning the ball high up the pitch.

Newcastle this season remind me of the 21/22 season for us under Rodgers. Like us then, after a brilliant previous season, they've struggled to cope with the extra European matches and had a ton of injuries.

Agree. It's a ground we've been rubbish at for the past decade and they'll go man for man against us, which we've struggled with even against inferior Championship teams.

No disgrace in losing unluckily at Leeds but that home defeat to Boro really was very bad when you look at their recent form and injury list.

The thing is they're like a cockroach, so hard to kill off. They've lost the fewest games in the league. They seem to have an inner believe and resilience that is very strong.

Surely it's Ipswich's turn to concede, rather than score, a jammy late goal?

Ipswich just won't f off. They're like a yappy little dog snapping at your heels. The only thing I would say is that it's a myth that they don't have squad depth. Sarmiento and Hutchinson coming off the bench today. That's so much better than our back up wingers.

You could say the same about Boro and look what happened against them.
