That’s a terrible point after the early red card. I’m only annoyed as I had you’s on a bet rolling into tomorrow 

Never bet on the Friday games or the early kick off! 

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

Still think it was shit but let's take the point which is better than a loss which I think would have really knocked our confidence too. 

 

Disappointingly there was no fire from the start this evening. We have had two games in 5 days which may have taken its course. We looked laboured. 

 

Maddison looks like he is struggling with the hip, Vardy can't buy that last bit of luck and we look generally pedestrian in midfield with both Wilf and Youri looking drained. 

 

Evans was good to be fair. I would have taken off Soy not Wes at HT.

 

Other teams will still struggle to catch us. Better to have the points in the bank.

Sorry but that can't go down as anything other than an extremely poor result.

 

Scrounged 1pt from a relegation battling team, not only played with 10 men for 90% of the match, but were missing their most key player, D.Ings.

 

If we want CL, we need to wrap it up before our last couple of games of the season.

 

Poor - No quality throughout.

Well not my best Friday night.

expected 3pts and my hometown team balls promotion for the 2nd week.

Awful. 
Had 10 men second half with Perez. 
Should of brought Under on. 

wow - Perez the only reason we got a point for me

[STUHILL]

Everyone seemed off their game tonight. Real lack of energy out there. Full week now to recharge 

 

Results could still go are way this weekend and a win at Newcastle and we are looking good again 

 

None of that will stop the incoming meltdown on here though. Enjoy everyone, I'm not sticking around for it! 

[Daz93]

One of those. Let's be glad we got a point back. We had the chances but didn't take them

[LestaAl]

Lets just say ... bad day at the office

Drop Maddison, he's clearly not fit.

Not only that, he doesn’t deserve to represent us. We lost to West Ham because of the disruption him and Perez caused attending that silly teenage like party. He doesn’t care about Leicester, he cares about money, fashion, cars and parties. Think he’ll care if we don’t get UCL? Probably not, he’d rather be at United anyway.

Not our night. Every point is valuable at this stage though. Take the point and move on 

Really don't know how you can be so positive after steaming pile of shit 🤣

[Fox42]

Stay calm. Dust ourselves down. Move on.

[Guest Kopfkino]

Pretty disgraceful performance really. 80 minutes against 10 men, a shit side that’s bottom of the league for the calendar year, lost 12 of 15 and never looked like winning. No sustained pressure, couldn’t pass the ball and didn’t really create anything given the circumstances. The goal epitomised it, lazily gave away the ball, silly free kick to give away and then completely bewildering why Iheanacho put his arms up.

 

That **** Maddison more interested in a wonder goal to make himself centre stage. 

[SecretPro]

Not good enough. When you are playing against 10 men for 80 minutes. Literally nowhere near good enough. Borderline shameful given the run in. 

[l444ry]

Couldn't hit a cow's backside with a banjo up front tonight. Would have been better if they had 11 on the field all game. One of those games so just move on.

[JonnyBoy]

absolute p*** had more than enough to win the game. If Vardy could finish a chance this year that would be useful

Get that damn formation in the bin. 

Needed to get both Vardy and Nacho playing as a pair.

 

 

[Md9]

Ugh hard to get through 10 ken behind the ball lucky we got a point as I thought at 1-0 e wouldn’t break them down at all. Still hopefully Utd beat Liverpool and spurs somehow lose to sheff Utd I know that’s not likely. Can see West Ham dropping points at Burnley to so hopefully not to much damage done this week

Ban the back five

Not bother to watch the 2nd half when we didn't play the back 5 then?

[VinceNoir]

I’d forgotten how much this sport annoys me at times

[matty98]

Against 10 men for 80 minutes to a bottom half team. Not good enough.

[sishades]

We only started to play in the last 20 minutes or so.Saints parked the bus and its car park. Must beat Newcastle next friday  and we now need a result in one of the last three matches.

[TrentFox]

Horse Pooh. Total fail on BR - 40 minutes to change it ???  Total bottle-job on players’ part. No accountability to take responsibility - just slide it sideways. Dross performance. Dross result. Dross feeing to live with for at least a week. 

[The Quick Brown Fox]

That's never a red, I don't mind dropping points when I feel we'd have cheated out way to them. I will take the point and move on.

Frustrating.

 

Alex McCarthy won them that point.

 

Only positive was another key contribution by Evans.

By wasting about 20 minutes of the second half taking goal kicks, you mean? Can't believe that we didn't get in the ref's ear about it. It was literally a minute for each kick.

 

Looks like we will now need to win one of the last 3. Real missed opportunity.

[Foxin_Mad]

Knowing Leicester we will lose to Newcastle and beat United' Chelsea and Spurs
