Mendy has been great 

I’m always calm when he’s on the ball, even in awkward areas

[foxfanazer]

There's an easy 3 points here if we bring vardy on for the second half

[fuchsntf]

We are playing well so far...Too many fans crapping themselves..

Though we do need turn our good chances into goals...

I'd go Vardy for Hamza second half. These are poor and are just letting us come on to them

It wasn't great, but I'm trying this new thing: actually supporting our players even when they do things wrong.

It’s called lying.

[bfox]

When you’re a forward and someone like Jonny Evans has better ball control than you .. 

[TheUltimateWinner]

Better team by far just missed our chances.

[RonnieTodger]

Can see Palace robbing us 1-0

[foxes_rule1978]

Playing well, just not took the chances... Vardy on please 

[Jattdogg]

The Nacho experiment needs to end. Long term it isn't working the way we had hoped. We need someone who has testicular fortitude up front. He will have his moments but i'd rather give  youth a shot if this is what we currently have. 

[adejo92]

Got to get Vardy on for the second half.

 

I'd be so happy to never see Nacho in a Leicester shirt again. Seems a nice bloke who means well but useless. To think he gets paid to turn up and play like that

Barnes cross-field to either Justin or Perez has been a good outlet for us so far..

It really has

 

[StanSP]

Should be ahead with the chances made. By about 2 or 3 as well. They've not threatened at all. 

 

If Youri or Vardy (or both) come on, we'll win this. 

[SpacedX]

Vital header from Evans - we can occasionally defend set pieces. 

[blabyboy]

What are the chances that BR _will_ actually bring on JV and YT at half time... I'm thinking Paul Daniels..

[Mickyblueeyes]

We should be winning this. Disappointing that it looks like without Vardy, we look blunt up front again. 
 

The change I’d make is to switch Perez and Kelechi. Perez is putting in a shift and deserves the central position. Kelechi needs to contribute to this team effort - he is letting everyone down.

Vardy OR Maddison OR Tielemans on for Hamza

 

Nacho can have another chance for me, if Vardy is on also. Plays better when hes' not the focal point of the attack

[CrispinLA in Texas]

If Aston Villa were playing Palace they would be 2 or 3 up by now

[kingfox]

That was frustrating, I’d rather have this Kel up front.

[coolhandfox]

Nacho move like my gran and she has ben dead 20 years. 

[Fox92]

Good first half and we should be in front.

 

Back four and Perez all been good. 

[PhillippaT]

So, would we still take a draw? 

[ThurmastonFox]

Hamza is looking off the pace and seems to be our weakest link

[Durnerz]

Just Hamza and Iheanacho not really performing at the moment, get Vardy and Tielemans on. Palace are effectively making it easy by not tracking runners and being second to pretty much every 50/50. Definitely there for the taking.

[The Guvnor]

Nacho needs a bottle of smelling salts to clear his fookin head.
