for Yeovil to just miss out on 3 points was very harsh.

Why? It would have been harsh for us to not take anything away from it having spurned about 5 very good chances.

Because they're League 1 quality playing away from home against a premier league quality team, held on for nearly the whole game! To take a point was a great result for them still.

I think "held on" is pushing it a bit, Vardy, Mahrez, Was, Phillips, Schlupp great chances and mucked up.

 

Anyways... I shall retire from this thread as my view of impressive is obviously very different.

QPR battered us in the first half. I think that was the most undeserved lead I've seen us take into half time.

 

They didn't batter us at all, they had a few long range shots. Just because the commentators were bumming Kranjcar doesn't mean we were actually being overrun by him.

Why are the only side who've beaten us at home in the League and the only side we've played twice who we've failed to beat so far, so unimpressive?

 

They're one of the worst sides to come here and I'm deadly serious. The most undeserved 0-2 I have ever seen and I'd say that no matter who it was.

My memory of it is that they just did a similar job as Yeovil with more success.

I can understand Yeovil playing that way, but one of the leagues biggest spenders? I'd be embarrassed if we'd spent that much and set up like that away from home. Defensive football is very much a lottery IMO whereas our style of going for a win in every game has worked a treat.

 

Forest in fairness played pretty well at home to us but the way some of their fans branded us 'lucky' for that game after what happened in November shocked me - until I remembered what fanbase we're dealing with.

Haha some people have fantastically short memories on here. Yeovil is cropping up both on the 'best team' thread and - even more amazingly - the 'worst ever game' thread.

Like goldfish's with keyboards.

Yeovil clearly can't compete with sides like QPR, Burnley and Brighton. All three of those outplayed us for some, most and even all of our games against them. Yeovil didn't do that. If they could do that they wouldn't be where they are.

You've got to be joking? if your relating to the home game, we shouldn't have even lost.

 

I'm talking about both games. I'm more impressed by sides that beat us, than sides that play well and lose. Forest are the only side who've beaten us at the King Power and have taken 5 points off a brilliant Leicester City side. I can't comment on the Brighton game because I wasn't there, but Forest did a job on us and that's more impressive than for instance a QPR who played well and lost, or a Yeovil who did pretty much the same thing as Forest and drew.

I'm giving them a bonus point because I feel sorry for them.

With all due respect mate, we could have been 3-0 up easily before they scored both of there goals, it wasn't that they were impressive, it just so happens our finishing was woeful. Statistically I can see what your saying, but I can remember being at that game so frustrated because we were genuinely better than them.

I wasn't listening to the commentators so that didn't influence me at all. Time and again we got picked apart in midfield and they created a lot of chances early on, it certainly was not all long range shots. We only got one highlight from the first half whereas they had about eight.

Brighton by a mile.

Had they played every week like they did agaisnt us they would surely be fighting it out with us for the championship.

Burnley a distant second.

Brighton by a country mile, they ripped us apart at times and we struggled to be in that game for about 70 minutes of it

I'd agree with this nomination, as well.

 

One of the away games I've been to myself this season. We just couldn't get into the game and they had great tactics, interfering with our attacks early on.

Who's their tall centre-midfielder who was so effective against us?
