Good to see Casadei starting to show why we brought him here as well. Had looked lightweight and all style with little substance up to now, but seeing him slam dunk that defender into the net with the ball was decent.
-
Clinical. This game highlights the stark difference between Premier League & Championship levels.
-
Let's go. Cannon and Daka job share for the rest of the season, please. Audition for leading the line at the highest level. Both have it in them. We already know Vardy does and Iheanacho has already had his chances to cement his position and is competent at that level.

Huddersfield (H) 4-1 - New Years Day - Post-Match Thread
BigGibbo replied to lnkstern's topic in Leicester City Forum
10 points clear and a new striker capable of hat tricks with Harry Kane instincts. Can't grumble. -
Meh! Would only trust him against bottom half opposition so far. Would personally rather ship him back home and bring in a new loanee to audition for a permanent transfer next season, but not mad either way if he remains 2nd/3rd choice.
-
True. Not meaning to be negative, just saying it as I see it re the defence department. Thankfully it just hasn't mattered this season.
-
Sure. I am doing 👍
-
Like I replied previously, I think that says more about the league. Not that we won't make enough adjustments to go along with promotion confidence to still level up next season.
-
I think that says more about the league than our defence to be honest. Meaning if we concede the same amount of opportunities in the Premier League we'd concede 3/4 times more. I don't see dramatic improvements from last season once the pressure is put on, but the combination of heinous finishing in this league and teams being too timid to attack (because our attack is always better than theirs) makes our defence look, on paper, to be amongst the best in Europe.
-
We can dish it out, but we still can't take it. Fragile is the best description of our defence...
-
Tom Cannon nearly(ish) completes the best hat trick of all time there...
-
The team have let Hermansen down there after a great save. Should have had his clean sheet today.
-
Great strength and flawless finishing again from Cannon. Potential machine here.
-
Justin is showing his class today. Hope he remains a mainstay now regardless of Doyle or whoever being fit. If so he could be back in England contention by this time next year.
-
You will do. Embarrassing for the Huddersfield defenders for Ricardo to get a free header like that, but I'll take it. 🥳
-
Take a bow Tommy Cannon. Prime Harry Kane finishing there. 👏
-
Cheers everybody 🤣 I thought they both had options/obligations to buy at the end of the season for some reason.
-
Unlucky Fatawu. Can we get the permanent transfers of him and Mavididi completed in January, please?
-
Mavididi & KDH unplayable today. Fatawu busting a gut to assist Justin there too. Couple of other on loan casuals could learn from him. Time to see Cannon now. Daka been anonymous and he needs blooding before Afcon.

Ipswich (A) 1 - 1 - Boxing Day - Post-Match Thread
BigGibbo replied to lnkstern's topic in Leicester City Forum
Granted the game should have been put to bed with a stone wall penalty at 1-0, but the substitutions made us so much weaker just as they were taking the initiative which cost us the game. Gutted as I was sure our class would show today. These (Ipswich) aren't a Premier League quality team. -
0 seconds left. Quick pass it to the keeper 😂🔫
-
How entirely unsurprising. Well deserved
-
Not enough and not for this once in a season situation for me. Would only play him against bottom half teams until he proves himself personally.
-
Iheanacho, Casadei & Akgun coming on in a game this important where metal and determination is the key requirement feels like suicide by arrogance, but fingers crossed we ride it out. 🙏
-
Phew! Twice we attack directly. Twice we score. Shocker. Let's see if anything is learned for the next game or if we start like we're 3-0 up again.
