Beyond that Burnley hardly created a chance. Just lots of balls into our box. If we had our shooting boots on it would have won at least 3-0. We can catch these lot and get Europa.

Puel is already unlocking the quality in many of our players. Yes this is something quite noticable. Albrighton as an example is trying quite a few more audacious passes and jinks. Ndidi too looks more comfortable on the ball, and Simpson is coming forwards way more often. Very encouraging to see.
Grebfromgrebland Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Yes we're looking a lot less naive in our defending too and our general play is a lot more intelligent now
Webbo Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 I thought N'Didi was crap first half, excellent second. The same as most of the team to be fair.
theadmans Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Nice 3 points. ....much better in the second half. Good bravery from Gray for the goal but didn't do enough for me as the game progressed. Next game Shinji please. Only real worry - Mahrez with that bleach job - is he trying to get noticed as he still wants way in January ?
Farrington fox Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 So, if Silva was available now. Who would he replace from todays side, or wouldn’t he?
splinterdream Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 the best thing is for me is Puel is rotating players with success which i think is what you need to be a successful top 6 side
Shanghai Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Go go go Leicester great win tonight ! Something is coming up Mahrez -grey not Mahrez/Great they doing well love it ！Grey has so much to learn from Mahrez he must understand he is the futur ! Vardy is great but a lot misses still great ! Albrigton wtf is good but works do hard more then any one he would be remplacés around 70 mn respect albrighton . Thx Leicester we will be at the champions league next year
trabuch Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 No doubt I'll change my tune if we lose against Newcastle (which we won't) but I am loving what Puel is doing with this team. The players look like they know what they are doing. He obviously knows how to get his message across. And he is not afraid of dropping pricey or long serving players. And he is willing to bring through young players. Happy days ahead for us. I have absolutely no fear about relegation any more. Am hoping and believing we'll finish above Spurts, and have a nice European adventure next year. Oh - and while we're at it - let's win the FA cup!!
Vardinio'sCat Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Was Albrighton on some sort of accumulator for corners, cos that was the worst set I have ever seen him deliver! Now Mahrez stands out a mile, you can see he is certainly working hard at the mo, he is sort of gliding along in the style of his pomp. Puel has certainly improved his mood and output, even if he was trying a bit to hard to get himself a goal at the end there. Kudos to Demmy for his bravery and desire, no questions about his following in this time. Would have brought Shinji on a bit earlier, but our second half was going very well,so I can see an argument for not changing. We looked a bit wary of putting our foot on the gas in the first half, once we got in front. I think Claude's brand of intelligent rotation is going to be very interesting over this busy period. He is certainly keeping our forward minded players on their toes. Maguire seems to really settled in defensively, over the last few games, imho.
FoxonMaui Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 That’s a BIG win. We are are starting to get some confidence moving the ball on the ground and our overall belief appears to be growing. If that injury to Brady has him out for a while Burnley will struggle to hold their position in the League. Cannot wait to see Silva playing in this team.
Shanghai Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Ibora is the boss and please play Gray mahrez Vardy every game ( albrighton hehe )

ARM1968 Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Can’t be a coincidence that we are closing in on the January transfer window and Mr. Morose is suddenly finding his form.

I think he would rotate between Iborra, Ndidi and Albrighton. So 2 or 3 out of that 4, but probably not all 4 at once unless we have injuries.

The Doctor Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 31 minutes ago, StriderHiryu said: . Honestly if we came in at half time and it was 1-0 to them you would not have been surprised. I would. They were only ever going to score if the ref chucked them something (like ignoring climbing on Iborra followed by wood catching a cross, or getting a corner for charging schmeichel out of play with the ball in his hands). We were better in every aspect.

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 :-) What odds did you get?
kingfox Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Should've been more but overall I thought it was a good team performance, the defence especially did a great job. After the goal Burnley had all the possession, I said on the Pre Match thread that their ball movement is underrated, they certainly know how to spray a ball around. I thought we finished the first half strong though, that seemed to help us. Second half we were solid all over the pitch, defensively outstanding apart from one moment where Burnley hit us on the counter, going forward the movement was better and really we should've scored more. The back four were brilliant, Ndidi stood out over Iborra for me today, Albrighton ran his socks off. Job done, three points, roll on Newcastle

Koke Posted 2 December 2017 Posted 2 December 2017 Credit to the team. We just played two thought teams in Spurs and Burnley and got 6 points.
