MPH Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 I'm not going to get carried away... I'm not going to get carried away... BUGGER THAT! THATS A HUGE RESULT!!!! get in there, Lads!!!!
matty98 Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Good result considering pretty much everything went against us and it would've been near impossible to play our normal game in 25 degree heat. Think we'll be much better at home.
Lionheart10 Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Just now, FLAN said: Mahrez can't keep playing. He's in awful form He is appaling offered nothing at all!
Redouane Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 A bit of luck saved us but the players played really well. MOTM Benny
Webbo Posted 12 April 2017 Author Posted 12 April 2017 Toss up between Huth and Benny for MotM. Simpson excellent.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Benny is a class defender I find it hard to see how you put Wes back in to be honest
Benguin Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Still well in it. Wasn't that impressed by the lad tonight, we were so sloppy in possession, the amount of times Mahrez or drinky gave the ball away. I would have been happy with 1-0 before the game though. Can't wait for next week, I think home advantage will completely dominate and we could nick it.
midland_red Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 I suppose that objectively, a one nill defeat away to one of the best teams in Europe isn't that bad, especially then the goal was a dodgy penalty. If I'm honest, what is worrying me now is wo will we play against Palace on Saturday (remember - we're not safe yet)
Corky Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Disciplined at the back in the main, shame about the goal and how it all unfolded. Mahrez and Drinkwater looked well off the pace, the two centre backs excellent and it's good that Vardy is available for the second leg but Huth will be a huge miss, Wes needs to be wheeled out however he is. They are some team to play against though, but the game is still open as in the previous round.
Guest the fox Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 I'm gutted that the goal was because of an unfair pen. Proud of the boys
Jattdogg Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 We couldnt pass and keep possession but i will take that loss any day considering how garbage we were away from home. Woulda have prefered a 2-1 loss or a draw or win but is what it is. Stil in this. Lets win 3-1 at home boys
kingston_fox Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Benny was immense tonight. Can't wait for a cracking atmosphere next week and a full tempo effort to unsettle them
The Doctor Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Hard earned 0-0 but for that cheat in the middle... still in it, think our crowd next week needs to be on the referee from minute one. Whoever it is will have seen that decision before they step on the pitch, we need to really sow the seeds in his head after it.
lnkstern Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 I think the class of the opposition has much to with Mahrez' 'bad form'. They double and triple teamed him most of the match, and their squad is world class.
biggs Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 good result all in all. ref a **** but we now have a decent chance at home
chapero82 Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Just now, foxes_rule1978 said: Benny is a class defender I find it hard to see how you put Wes back in to be honest Easy Huth is suspended
Guest Danny Clender Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Epceptional performances from the 8 players that turned out for us tonight. If we can have a full 11 at home, we really will do these.
fazzyfox Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Brilliant stuff, realistically the second best result we could hope for, we might need a 3-1 at home, not sure if I can see a 2-0 but let's crank up that electric atmosphere and roar the boys into the semi's
Aus Fox Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Great result, get them back to the KP and we are well in this. Benny MotM, outstanding closely followed by Albrighton. Did Kasper make a save?
m4DD0gg Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Great defending. Shocking ref and another reason for tech. Mahrez showed why he ain't going to make barca ever. Loosing huth is a real blow. Pray that wes is back as Amartay is beyond shit.

wardyfox86 Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 2nd half was played at 70% by Athletico. Both sides will be happy. They will believe that they can go to the KP and score, and they don't typically concede 3. A massive ask for us but at least we go into it with something to play for, we need to play like we did Sevilla at home, and we have a CHANCE.
justfoxes Posted 12 April 2017 Posted 12 April 2017 Great result for us unfortunately losing out to yet another questionable decision in Europe by a ref that seemed to have his strings pulled by Simeone,bring these diving back to the KP on a cold night we can easily beat them !!
