I'm surprised at some of the comments here on reflection I think it was one of our better attacking performances of the season, it was only due to poor end products it wasn't 7 tonight and only been 2 1 at half time always gave Birmingham a chance, but the third sealed the victory, they were always going to press us at home, Rooney looking to impress on sky, but in the end I think we played well today and style of play alot more impressive than a month ago, give Enzo he's due he's a fast learner and making the right decisions lately.

I have been very critical of Mavididi but tonight we was unplayable and my MOTM.

 

Hopefully he finds some consistency. 

I’m the same, I find him frustrating and think if we go up he will actually really struggle. I think Fatawu will adapt better to the prem even though Mavs technically better. I find Mav infuriating and his decision making always wrong…. Hats off to him tonight he was outstanding in all the technical bits along with the decision making and hopefully more to come and he can prove me wrong.

Regardless of whether you think it’s a red “for you” or not, I find it hard to believe that the current PL VAR system looks at this and agrees with “no foul”

Well I can say they would get the coin out and flip on it… wasn’t it Sabitzar against us last season, that got away with one that was far more blatant. The Man U player wasn’t even going for the ball

Our supporters get more strange with every passing season, arguing for our own players to be sent off.

 

Anyway, I love watching Mavididi, always on the front foot, no hesitation, exciting player.

Think we were a bit unfortunate to concede 2 tonight. One good finish by and a deflection certainly flattered Birmingham. Needless to say we need to start completing killing games when we have the opportunity; if we make it 4-1 even a deflected goal back gives them little hope.

I agree with all that. We certainly created the chances to achieve that level of security but fluffed a fair few great chances. Some of the play was very dominant and some of the best we have played all season and we shouldn’t have had that nervy final ten minutes. Overall I was encouraged at the way we handled a potential banana skin of a game.

What a very strange take on it. 

 

Just because you support the team doesn't mean that you believe that every single decision should go in your team's favour. I'm sure every Leicester fan is mightily pleased that AF didn't get sent off, but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't debate the good fortune of it in a post match review

It isn’t textbook though is it, they both go for the ball, it was unfortunate he clipped him in fact… as you can clearly see he goes for the ball. You can say any challenge is a reckless endangerment lol it is a contact sport

That picture in still motion looks much worse than it actually was in real time.

 

Mav went for the Ball as it was there to be won, But the opponent put his body across the ball to protect it which is why he got caught on the Knee. 

 

Yes we've all seen them given but I don't believe there was any intent from Mav to hurt him.

Mav wasn't on the pitch by that stage I don't think...

Was it Mav or Fatawu ? Either way I don't think it was intentional as I've said. Which is why the Ref didn't react.

 

Some you win and some of them you lose.

Fatawu, as much discussed.

Have been away all week and won’t get to see the recording until Thursday, but sounds like the slightly more attacking & positive, forward-looking performance many of us have been crying out for? Fabulous. Long may it continue.
