Larry_LCFC Posted 9 March 2020 Posted 9 March 2020 First 30 minutes I think most people thought "here we go again." Huffing and puffing. Then we finally got our game on and played how we should be. Vardy coming back was massive. Instant tempo boost and the wingers were giving service. Please don't put Chilwell back in the team. So much better without him.

And if Vardy can get his 100th PL goal against Watford... Behave, no chance will we have to win 5 more that will mean Man Utd or a Wolves will have to win close to 8 of their last 9 to catch us
fazzyfox Posted 9 March 2020 Posted 9 March 2020 All I'd say about the "don't change this line up" call is horses for courses, but Watford away next so I probably would stay with Justin and Albrighton, as for CF, Vardy from the start if he has no reaction to tonight.

He was class. - Brendan picked a high energy team to force Villa back. Look how few touches Grealish had tonight. RIccy P and Albrighton were selected with one eye on him, and notably Riccy P dropped back a lot tonight and we went down the other side with Justin to attack. That was the tactical change that for me decided this game, on top of many good performances. - Albrighton is less technical but runs like a Durcaell rabbit on his side. Perez I think is by far the superior player technically, but has Perez affected a game this season as much as Albrighton tonight? I know he scored a hat trick in the 9-0, but Albrighton made things happen over and over. Just a shame he didn't make it 5 at the end. - James Justin was selected to inject pace and add another threat down the other side, and you have to say he did it superbly. - Praet kept his place because of recent performances. I think he's more physical than Tielemans and the pressure and defensive work he does is as good as his forward work. Him and Ndidi as a pairing gave us control of the game. Maddison was for me probably our most off-form player tonight, but we still scored 4 because those two ran the show. Rodgers deserves a lot of credit; I think all of his changes paid off. But we didn't really play an innovative system such as when we went 442 diamond away to them earlier in the season. Tonight it was more a case of our team collectively playing well. For me everyone gets at least a 7 other than Maddison who I felt was a bit weak.

Tielemans63 Posted 9 March 2020 Posted 9 March 2020 Sven is definitely not going to win Sky Sports guest pundit of the season 19/20. "Is that a penalty Sven?" "........... I don't know."
SpacedX Posted 9 March 2020 Posted 9 March 2020 Got massively pilloried for saying this...but I'll take the league and defending a top four position over the folly of the Carabao Cup semi final every time.

Cadno'r Cymoedd Posted 9 March 2020 Posted 9 March 2020 Chuffed with that. OK, Villa were crap after the first 8 minutes but once we got into our stride, we looked good and improved as the confidence came flowing back.. Great that Vardy and Barnes got braces. Harvey was excellent in particular. Ndidi and Praet bossed midfield whilst Johnny Evans was rock like at the back. Big shout outs to Albrighton, who was very good indeed too, and Justin who was really fantastic. Deserves his chance now.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 9 March 2020 Posted 9 March 2020 Evans a true defender no doubt... good old fashioned type

I really hope brendon starts him against watford. After 10 mins the real Leicester came out of hiding. But Chilly will be back if he is fit. Not based on merit but favourtism. Same as Maddison - love to see him get dropped and regroup too; too many misplaced passes though he will come good.

Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 9 March 2020 Posted 9 March 2020 Much better tonight. Villa are shite. How we didn't beat them over two legs.... Barnes motm. Ndidi class. Not always a fan of Albrighton but he offers more than Perez and he played well Justin solid too

After Villa gloating about stopping us with a midfield block and niggly fouls we were noticeably longer and more direct. Albrighton gave us more width than Perez to avoid the congested middle. On top of that we played quite well
fazzyfox Posted 9 March 2020 Posted 9 March 2020 Vardys 2nd goal started with Evans making a crab football tackle. We really have absolutely taken the p*** tonight 😀
