A win's a win and 12 points above relegation will surely be enough barring a whopping points deduction, but the club feels like a zombie lurching forward.

 

First half 6/10, second half 3/10. Both would likely be lower scores if playing a better team.

 

Jordan James is keeping us out of trouble - what a signing he's been.

Great to see so many young lads on at the end and holding on. Definitely feels that there is a lot going on behind the scenes at Seagrave and slowly but surely we are seeing a squad of players who actually want to be here and are committed. 
 

Will be a bumpy journey as we lack a bit of quality but the young lads gave a decent account of themselves and was good to see us press more and play with more energy in the last 30 minutes.

It was two poor run of the mill Championship sides. We won because we had the best player on the pitch in James who needed one moment. 
 

Wins are rare as a Leicester fan so great to get one but the performance, the style etc. shit man.

Fair play to Marti, the subs changed the flow of the game and we saw it out quite comfortably in the end, despite the one chance for Derby at the end.

 

It'll be interesting if Page, Monga and Silko can get a proper run of games together, perhaps with Aluko and Evans too, to really get the hang of playing together at this level.

 

But their pace and energy nullified the momentum Derby were building.

 

Not a perfect performance by any means but a welcome return to winning ways. 6 points over Derby is always a good thing.

 

I thought James looked rusty at points today but he scored a very, very good goal. The strength and finish were excellent. And De Cordova-Reid is really proving his worth at this level. We'll need both on form again against West Brom.

 

I thought Mavididi toiled again. Fatawu tried to do too much. He needs to be freed up. Some more players providing flair and a proper outlet would put less pressure on his shoulders.

 

A real shame for Ramsey to go down after a couple of minutes on the pitch. I hope it isn't too bad. Otherwise it could easily be both him and Carranza going back to their parent clubs in a few days (if we're able to cancel any of those loans, that is).

Ahhh lovely, another papering over serious cracks win to keep this inept muppet in the job. 

Could we afford to sack him even if we lost?

We are the definition of inconsistent. A win is a win though, I’m only interested in Leicester City winning football matches… we defended well, now let’s try and build some sort of momentum.

Oh, Jordan is a Welshman, he wears a Welshman’s hat … 🎶 

 

He lives with Bobby De-Cordova Reid in a beautifully furnished 4 bed detached house in North Leicestershire,

He scores them with his left foot,
He scores them with his right,
And when we play the Derby he scores all blummin night

Sure but we have to hope things improve. If we can keep the young players involved and gaining experience for next season.

The hardest part of that is keeping them

Take the lead.

Squander said lead within two minutes.

Take the lead again shortly before half-time.

Aaron Ramsey seems to be done.

Derby were a bit shit.

 

On the whole, three more or less deserved points.

 

Now, as for Sheffield United away...

That's always the hard part of running an Club. The Club has to show them they have a future here and hope they want to stay for a while anyway.
