Leicester vs Zorya Luhansk match thread

[Bourbon Fox]

Calm down, Kasper's world class

[frany104]

Nacho is great at holding the ball up. He rarely loses it and is good at bringing others into the game. He isn’t very effective when others don’t make forward runs for him. Example being Maddison is offering for the ball off of Nacho tonight. Perez doesn’t do that. 
 

go on Nacho prove all the doubters wrong! 

[bfox]

Pretty Naff first half but can’t complain with the score 

[LCFCCHRIS]

These match threads are so fickle page to page 😁 but Nacho doing what he does best there imo. 

[Foxxed]

I love how composed he was. I'm really looking forward to seeing a better and better Barnes this season. He could really be an exciting footballer for us and England if he keeps on improving.

[Webbo]

2-0 flatters us, just a tad. I'm not a great fan of Ihenacho but he's done okay.

[LestaAl]

2-nil up for HT, definitely justifies a beer from the fridge....

Barnes really is developing into a wonderful footballer.

[Guest Manini]

Picked the toughest finish as well there! Comedy defending from them too I was  

 

First 20 mins was dog and cat muck but better end to the half when they finally realised they were at home and are comfortably the better side and they just relaxed a bit. 

[jmono84]

What was with 2 mins injury time and blowing before one min even! That was weird 

[Haywood_6]

That was class from Barnes 

[yorkie1999]

That’s better, hopefully the confidence will start flowing again

• Barnes has been brilliant, he's the key player for us, his pace is absolutely killing them and they don't like how direct he is. His finish was beautiful.
• Fofana looks fantastic, very impressed with him
• Iheanacho looks absolutely useless half the time, but then the other half he actually looks like he knows exactly what he's doing, 2 assists but one was lucky
• Kaspers kicking gives me nightmares, every game it goes wrong once or twice and we nearly concede

Just got to see out the second half, one more goal would seal it.

2 mins of time effort in and she blows after 40 secs ???

Yeah that was a bit weird, maybe she was scared we were going to start battering these. Bit of a mercy rule but annoying.

Nice to See Andy King, Reporting on the game on Sky...

[sishades]

Barnes is already my man of the match ( I originally used MOM but that just looked weird). Nacho looks good alongside Harvey. A solid and patient performance. Unlike Foxes*****Player which keeps crapping out every few minutes.

[Crazy Kop Corner]

A finish of pure class. Harvey has been the best player on the park by some distance.

How ****ing nice is watching City without VAR by the way?

and with the ref that doesn´t take the attention and lets the game flow. Like in the "old" days.....

[RowlattsFox]

We've got the beating of their defence, Barnes in particular, thankfully because I don't think we've played great. I don't think it was but there's the chance the second is disallowed in england, interfering with play from an offside position? Maybe but who cares. Good to see Iheanacho get the assist because I think he was poor again until that with his hold up play. 

 

Hopefully play with confidence second half now and can see us going on to win comfortably.

[sheffield_fox]

If Barnes could finish like that consistently he could be world class. Jamie V would have been very happy with that.

[Vacamion]

 

Woo-hoo.  

 

 

I wonder - Would that have stood in ths Prem with VAR?

 

Madders collision with the defender looked to me like the defender went down in stages.  I like to hope it would have stood.

 

Great run, nice assist, cool finish.

Iheanacho has played well, his all-round game has been good. 
 

What it’s also shown is how we could be even better with another striker alongside him. 
 

I’d like to see us try a diamond formation with Iheanacho and Vardy  upfront and Barnes in support, when Vardy is back from injury.

2 assists, been involved in virtually every attack. Linked up with everyone else well 

[Jaspa]

Fofana's quite an intelligent player, shifts around well and confident.

 

Nacho doing really well; two assists, laying it off, hold up play, goal for him would be icing on the cake
