Albrighton plays, Leicester win

Recommended Posts

I noticed that, we get 3 points when that happens in the league...

And our goal difference improves too!

He was decent today, but by no means a game changer. The game changer was the formation we played, so Pearson gets credit for that.

So when we lose its the players fault, but if we win pearson takes the credit.

We still look far from complete side, and some of his decisions are not great, but he has won through the passion and work rate of the players, who have took the pressure off him, for now

Never said that. We looked much better at the back when we went to 3 at the back. The players are the ones who make it happen but there is no denying today that the way we set up second half is what changed the game. The players deserve credit, and do so throughout the season for never giving up and their commitment. I never questioned this from this team.In previous games we have played equally well, but not had the quality where it counts. Today we had the quality in the vital areas. Players deserve a lot of credit. They all do. But so does Pearson. He made the changes and they worked. 

 

And when we have lost this season, everyone seems to go against Pearson and not the players, except for the usual scapegoats. I am not saying Pearson shouldn't be criticised because some of his decisions have been questionable. Lawrence is probably the biggest example.

Absolutely not denying this, but formations can make players play better in a system that suits them better. RDL and JS are more suited to the wing back roles.

Haha, sorry. I was just joking because NP made that statement a day or so ago and look what happened today! The formation change definitely won the game (or allowed Schlupp, Cambiasso, and Vardy to win the game).

Can't argue with the facts, I expect many a photo of Rachel for the visit of the mighty swans.

Think this should be nugent plays we win. From memory we have nor won a single game without him starting, and he has featured in every single point we have gained. Not a single point without him!

Think that's more to do with going through two windows not bothering to sign a player suited to the role in behind the striker. Seeing as the role is crucial to our only successful formation it's beggars belief we chose to ignore strengthening.

Totally agree Nugent is still our best Striker. He has a proper Strikers instincts inside the box unlike the others. you only have to look at some of his Guile with benders and deft little lift overs. 

on current form and playing Ulloa up top Albrighton has to play. It's balls in the box that bring goals not fancy step overs and losing the ball which is what Mahrez has been doing lately.

72 touches, 70% pass accuracy, 40 passes, 14/30 accurate crosses + long ball passes.

 

Took all three of the set pieces that the goals (and penalty) came from.

Glad he's getting enough minutes to show what he can do, he adds a dimension to our team we didn't have before in decent deliveries from set pieces!

He's good defensively as well which helps the team, good on him for taking his chance when it came
