Schmeichel 7 - Some good kicks, and one world class save to save us from a draw

 

De Laet 7 - Good defensively, got forward loads of times, with good dangerous direct runs

Morgan 7 - Dependable & Solid

Moore 7 - Like Morgan another solid game from the young man

Konchesky 7 - For the time being, he seems back to his consistent best

 

Knockaert 7 - Played well in parts, then drifted out of the game

King 8 - Doesn't get enough credit, was everywhere today, mopped up and got forward well

Drinkwater 7 - Decent display, a couple of strayed passes as usual, but nothing major

Dyer 7 - When unleashed he was a constant threat

 

Nugent 8 - Good hard working display, good finish for first goal

Vardy 6 - His poorest display of the season, few good link ups, but has played much better recently

I'd go with that.

Schmeichel 6 - Fantastic distribution today, and some standard saves that you'd expect him to make. One fantastic save, which could've been prevented if he hadn't needlessly palmed it out for a corner.

De Laet 7 - Probably his best game of the season so far. Just a shame his delivery wasn't up to much.

Konch 6 - Solid, without a inspiring.

Morgan 7 - Standard Wes.

Moore 7 - Won a lot in the air, put his body on the line.

Knocky 6 - Didn't get a lot of room to play. Corners were good, shame no-one attacked them.

Dyer 7 - His pace gave them major problems but it's the same old story with Lloyd. No end product.

King 6 - A quiet game but got stuck in at times and played some nice passes.

Drinkwater 7 - Seems to have gained a bit of pace from somewhere. Again tried to orchestrate things. Let's hope he can keep it up.

Nuge 7 - two goals, one a lovely finish and what's becoming a standard penalty which was exquisitely taken. Worked hard and tried to link up with Vardy.

Vardy 6 - Won the penalty with a blistering burst of pace. His usual self, a poor first touch prevented him what was a certain goal.

Hard to pick a MOTM today, no one really stood out.

Kasper 8 - That save was superb. Might have cost us 2 points last week but he saved us 2 points today.

 

RDL 7 - got forward very well, looked happy to take on his man in the final third

 

Morgan 7 - solid

 

Moore 7 - solid

 

Konchesky 7 - got forward a little more today, almost took Nugent's head off with that cross second half!

 

Knocky 7 - played a part in the build up to both goals. Not sure what position he played today, he seemed to just go where he wanted

 

Drinky 7 - another tidy performance

 

King 7 - good defensive work today

 

Lloyd - 7.5 - shame didn't score first half but played in nuge for the opener. Looked a good threat today

 

Nugent 8 - really pleased he scored from open play today, think that will help his confidence

 

Vardy 6 - good effort but link-up play didn't quite work today. Still won us a penalty though to be fair to him.

Kasper 7.5. Great distribution, and a fantastic save at the end

De Laet 7. Got forward well, couple of dodgy balls into the box but he's a full back, not David Beckham. People have such high expectations of him.

Moore 7.5 Great double tackle near the end, strong in the air

Morgan 7. His usual

Konchesky 7. Solid

Knockaert 7. Good in the first half, more quiet in the second

King 8. Thought he was exceptional today

Drinkwater 7. Strong, hustled and bustled

Dyer 8.5. Played a different role I thought, seemed central a lot of the time. Thought he was excellent, runs past players effortlessly and played a huge part in the goal

Nugent 7.5 Quality finish, and a good pen. Him and Vardy link up well together and run themselves into the ground

Vardy 6.5. Disappointing first touch when he could have been through but worked his socks off. Constant pain in the arse for their defenders.

Schmeichel 7 Couple of good saves & distribution good recently

De Laet 7 Good forward runs & defensive interventions

Morgan 6 Sound, but sat too deep in last quarter of match

Moore 6 As above

Konch 6.5 Sound

Knocky 8 Creative & kept possession well

King 8 MoM Busy, consistently excellent positioning/passing, faded

Drinky 7 More aggressive & forward-looking in recent games

Dyer 8 Played all over the pitch with good movement, passing & threat

Vardy 6 OK, bit clumsy at times

Nugent 7 Busy, good team play, pleased he took a chance

 

James N/A Better than recently

Hammond & GTF N/A Kept possession well, possibly stopped us dropping 2 points - even if they don't become 1st team regulars (which they might), these 2 blokes - and Wasyl - will gain us points with their experience off the bench

 

My marks for the midfield seem a bit generous, given the near capitulation in the last 20 mins, but I'd partly blame the defence for sitting too deep - and the manager for not bringing on the subs sooner (though NP is doing an excellent job overall)

Kasper deserves more than a 6 considering the description surely?

Schmeichel  7   One stunning save and I thought his distribution was better. I do think he should have come out and claimed the ball for their goal.

 

De Laet  5     He showed a lot of effort but his final ball was very poor and he lost control of the ball far too easily for my liking.

 

Konchesky 6  Another good steady performance.I think he and Moore lost their player for the goal though.

 

Morgan  7    He didn't have that much to do really apart from the last 15 minutes.

 

Moore  5.5    Possibly at fault for their goal and he got away with some poor touches today. He was out thought by Scotland a couple of times and was lucky to get away with it because Scotland is now so slow.

 

Knockaert  6.5  Huffed and puffed and did some good things but average really. Should have been brought off 10mins earlier as he looked tired.

 

Dyer  8   I thought he had a great game. Should have scored in the first half but was a constant threat all game.

 

King  7  He had a very good first half but seemd to fade as the game went on and should have come off earlier.

 

Drinkwater 8   He seems to be playing really well at the moment. Very possibly MOM for me.

 

Nugent  7  At last a goal from open play and a very well taken penalty. Overall though I thought his game was average really.

 

Vardy 5   Where was the energy of the previous home match? His first touch was poor and he really didn't look like scoring. He's improved a lot but he really needs to start scoring soon.

 

Subs

Did fine. I think they should have been brought on 10 minutes earlier than they were though.

Great result from a very average performance. Starting to remind me a bit of Cardiff last season.

Kasper - 7.5 We only got the 3 points due to his vital last gasp save off the line late on, granted he could have come for the cross that Scotland scored from

 

De laet - 6 Bad day at the office for what is a very good player. They all have one now and then.
Morgan - 7 Stock Morgan solid statuesque competent assured leader at the back.
Moore - 7 Growing to be a very important part of our defence
Konch - 6.5 Nothing To report in an outstanding manner, maybe could have done more to stop Scotland scoring.

 

Knockaert - 7.5 Committed creative nuisance and should have had a penalty.
King - 7.5 He's not quite so Hollywood these days but is still plays an important role.
Drinkwater - 7 A decent display.
Dyer - 7.5 Attacking threat who should have scored in the 1st half. 

 

Nugent - 7.5 Back to near his best.
Vardy - 6 Showed pace to win the penalty. Needs to be more ruthless when he gets a chance and not get pushed off the ball so easily around the box.

 

Barnsley arrived to frustrate and with so many men behind the ball it's not easy for any side to make a decisive break through.

We should have had a penalty in the first half and dyer should of scored, but despite letting them get a soft goal back we were worthy winners of what was a one sided game apart from a couple of 5 minutes spells of neat Barnsley play.

Kasper 8 - Great save at the end and some decent distribution

De Laet 5 - Got in good positions but touch was often not there. Looked fatigued.

Moore 6 - solid and dependable but got lucky with the "offside" goal

Morgan 7 - usual Morgan

Konchesky 7 - solid and better use of the ball

Knockaert 7 - playing very well at the moment, willing to incorporate the simple stuff

Drinkwater 7 - some good probing passes. Much better when he plays positively

King 6 - ok from him, still a vital part of our midfield

Dyer 7 - some good runs and an assist for the first

Vardy 6 - not his best game but still a nuisance and got us the pen

Nugent 7 - both goals well taken

Subs:

Taylor-Fletcher 6 - needs to get fit but some tidy touches. Has a good footballing brain

Hammond 6 - ok in the possession but again appears to be lacking match sharpness

James 6 - testament to king and drinkers that he isn't starting at the moment

Nige 7 - found a way to win again but perhaps could have sured up the midfield a little earlier. Some nice football is being played again now though and we're better organised in set play defending.
