Chester Dontlie Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 It's not a coincidence we started playing football when Shinji was subbed in. A shame Puel didin't make changes sooner. Albrighton was great but was on his last legs. All in all precious 3 points but we should thank Burnley for being so wasteful with their chances.
egg_fried_rice Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 A 1-0 home win against Burnley doesn't look like much on paper, but I thought we played really well without quite being at the top of our game. Burnley are the hardest working team I've seen in some time, you can see why they are doing well. A slight worry in recent weeks was that we've been fading off in the second half, but this week we actually improved. Everyone played their part, think Maguire gets motm for me. Oh and anyone else think Riyad's hair made him look a bit faster? Another good performance from him, just missing the end product today.
Sir Shep Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Back to back league wins since, well it seems forever!
lgfualol Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Great win. Mahrez is magic, please never leave.
Brooksy Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Get in. Puel looking a decent appointment so far
Happy Fox Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Tis an extra sweet feeling when the Red Dogs have lost! Well done Waggy!
Webbo Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Much better second half but I could just see them equalizing ing injury time
AyewJoking Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 1-0 v Burnley and slowly becoming a top ten team.
Devonfox1884 Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Could've been 3 or 4. Second half was brilliant - this is a bigger win than it looks on paper.
Tuna Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 They lost their spark when Brady went off injured and tired badly in the second half. Remember they went to Bournemouth midweek and ground out an excellent result plus played on Wednesday so we had an extra 24 hours prep time. I sound like Dyche in his post maych presser
Farrington fox Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Great win, 2nd half we looked good and should have added to the tally. Now, a home draw against Forest in the FA cup please.
TeaMen Tom Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 This team is starting to play to its talent level. McGuire, Mahrez, Niddi, Chilwell were all superb.

It was anything but every man for himself. More dangerous, one-touch passes than I can remember, threatening to pick apart one of the better back lines in the League.
foxfanazer Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Great win and we were brilliant second half. The Gray, Mahrez and Albrighton formation worked well today. Mahrez looks back to his best! Very tricky fixture and we’ve come through it impressively. I’m liking what Puel is doing

It does when you realise they'd only lost once away all season so far. I'll take the points.
danfox76 Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 another 3 points towards a champions league spot

I dont mean the passing (which was superb) i mean the shooting when quite often there was a better option on the table. Dont get me wrong fantastic performance and if we play like that week in week out we are back!!!

bridport007 Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Great win and performance second half especially. Even Big Wes is looking to pass the ball. Mahrez was great again and is putting in some great runs back to defend. Iborra is fantastic and can't wait to see him and Silva together. I put a £5 on top 4 8 weeks ago. I'm starting to get a run for my money :-)
somebum Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Good win! Continental managers understand the game thank god we got shot of shakes
Jaspa Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Maguire MotM Should've killed them off in the last 20mins, Vardy in particular. Iborra was dynamic, energetic, clever, willing and able. N'Didi looked knackered and surprised he finished the 90. Burnley were truly on top until Brady went off, after that they didn't offer much. Great win though, back to back against Top10
420Hashish Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Where are those fans who moaned about how boring Puel is?
Wdywd Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Thought we were really good second half, on another day that's an absolute battering and they're a side with a great away record. Shame we couldn't bury the game and give a few people a rest since we have so many games coming up is all. Claude
