Leicester v Derby Match Thread

[MC Prussian]

That's the price you pay for letting it slide...

[Soar Fox]

Don Goodman bumming Will Hughes is like when Gary Birtells was rimming Nial Ranger.

[BoneDog]

Oh I've had enough of this, I'm canceling my Sky Sports subscription.

[Guest Bilo]

Didn't think I'd end up saying this after Waghorn's goal but we needed that half time whistle.

[morris1234]

I say it every time. But sky love any team we are playing against. Part of me thinks don goodman is going to burst Into song along with the derby fans.

They always have to have a 'focus player' will Hughes supplied a pass to the player that assisted their goal therefore he's amazing and too good for derby. Every two seconds. Just like Nile ranger , his two touches in that game were incredible! So good I now know he's an amazing footb...ohhh wait, what's he done?

Behave!

[AKCJ]

This game is almost identical to the 4-0 last season when Derby had a 30 minute spell between about 30 minutes in and 60 minutes in.

Only difference is they've scored.

[Basingstoke Fox]

Phew. Glad half time came. Time for Nigel to sort some things out. Some people giving the ball away far too easily. That was a half where we should've gone in 2 goals ahead at the absolute minimum given how much better we were for most of it!

[pSinatra]

We should've been out-of-sight after 30 mins.........so why am I sitting here with chest pains??

[Happy Fox]

A good game for the neutral you could say we need to find our rhythm and get at Dierby come on City we can beat them quite easily.

[Guest]

Well we could have been 5 up in 20 and 7 up in 30 minutes but then we're liucky not to have let 4 in during the last 15 mins.

Waggy amazing for the first 25 then hasn't touched the ball.

Knocky makes a lot of errors but he is a danger every time he has the ball.

Kasper has got to play the short ball more and not the long one.

Too much chilli chicken?

coudln't agree more ..... we started playing it long and it never sticks to our front two when we lump it forward- it just concedes possession.

[Kitchandro]

That was really unprofessional from us, a sign of a young side. Having said that some experienced players were at fault for the goal. Very soft.

First 30 minutes was quality, Waggy's having a blinder. We're still a better side than them if we can just calm it down and get a foot on the ball again.

Knockaert sums us up for me, does the hard part and looks a world beater one minute, then when it comes to doing the basics and finishing them he's cocking it up. Some lovely play nonetheless.

[Leicfox]

Vardy

Konchesky

Dyer

All need to do better

Vardy has done ok for me. An assist and a few shots.

De Laet's positioning is shocking and needs sorting out asap.

[emmo1987]

Will hughes looks like the kid off honey i shrunk the kids.

Also don goodman wants some.! Barca want him?! Yeh

[Happy Fox]

We just need to keep our cool get back to our passing game and not making silly errors and press the opposition NP will not be pleased after the last 15 minutes of the first half in which we allowed the sheepshaggers too much time on the ball.

[ADK]

Morgan isn't really having a good game nor Schmeichel. I hope our frontmen have something left in the tank because i think we need a 3rd if we are going to win this.

[Webbo]

Didn't enjoy that last 10/15 minutes at all. Derby could have scored 4. Shit stream as well.

[cc_star]

Need to up the tempo again, that's all... Press them in their own half. Not sure why we've started standing off.

Not a fan of Konch at LB, very limited, no urgency, keeps getting turned, not linking up with Dyer well.

Lets be honest though, their keeper is having one of those game we could have been 5 or 6 up before we strangely dropped off

[Kitchandro]

Morgan isn't really having a good game nor Schmeichel. I hope our frontmen have something left in the tank because i think we need a 3rd if we are going to win this.

He's played like an absolute beast for most of it.

[ADK]

Pretty good game in the premiership too.

[surrifox]

pretty

agree

pretty basic football psychology - when the oppo score and the force is with them just keep the ball for a bit dont feed it back to them with overambitious passes and runs - take the wind out of their sails

[ADK]

Not for me, played a few poor passes and played them onside for the goal. Worst i've seen Morgan for us although he's got high standards.

why would you know or care?

Not sure you can blame him for the goal, the other two were looking across and should surely have seen the offside wasn't worth playing. They should have just marked him up.

I thought for the first 30 minutes he mopped absolutely everything up, gave it away a few times after that though, then again everyone was by then.

[AKCJ]

why would you know or care?

Reading 3-4 Man United

I havn't seen a second of it but I can tell you that it's a good game.
