Leicester City 2-2 Everton post match thread

did anyone see andy king? no?

only kiding andy <3 u! great assist!

[Dylster]

Very pleased with this, showed everyone what we can do. And we should be even better when we have our full squad back. 

[Webbo]

Liam Moore had a cracking game, Knockeart was poor I thought. I think we can see now why Nige won't play Schlupp as a striker.

[One Arm Babba]

After Drinky went off and the way we finished the 1st half thought, didn't expect that the 2nd half. Played well and didn't look out of our depth.

Exactly what I was thinking at half time.

[Matty Hamez]

Really enjoyable game I thought. Both teams looked good, and that's a great result for us. Especially with no James and less than a half of Drinky. All went about as well as could be hoped.

[Benji]

De Laet is on a bloody hiding to nothing.  He was up against an attacking Baines (one of the best left backs in the league) and a skilful Pienaar, with others making supporting runs.  Add to that Mahrez wasn't always providing cover.  

[RowlattsFox]

Be interesting to see what happens with Wood now.

[blue blood]

Jeffs miss

Barry should have been sent off for 2 yellows

Jagielka getting up after a wood Kung fu kick to the head - boss.

Our spirit will take us places

30 something possession at home - will have to counter attack well

We grew as the game went on, will like to see us continue to grow and not let the hype bring us down.

[tylesta]

solid performance...thought king had a good game worked his socks off.

[SlaneyLCFC]

Very happy with the result today. All the players sounded like they put a very good shift in

[Webbo]

Be interesting to see what happens with Wood now.

He'll be here until deadline day at least.

[NGoloMode]

Thought we looked very good

[MPH]

We actually dominated the 2nd half. Against Everton. Who finished 5th.

 

 

4 regulars out and no cambiasso  or deeney/ slimani to be seen.

 

 

 

 

 

I'm Impressed.

Liam Moore had a cracking game, Knockeart was poor I thought. I think we can see now why Nige won't play Schlupp as a striker.

think it went to young jeffs head he looked like he was going to chip howard but changed his mind.

[TrentFox]

Marvellous.

[bardonfox]

Where has MHC gone? I couldn't believe how unrealistic his and some people's expectations were earlier in the match. Embarrassing? Far from it. I thought the boys put in a decent shift considering our injury situation.

[Webbo]

Ulloa showed enough to suggest he's good for 10-15 goals a season.

[casablancas]

Are gonna get a mention on sky? .

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Taking the injuries into account, what a superb result against a very, very tidy side. Mahrez looks so much more dangerous drifting inside, created some real problems second half after a hideous first period; and Ulloa looks a handful with the ball at his feet. Everybody came off the bench to have a positive impact, Hammond did his usual bits and pieces, Wood epitomised the composure we know he's got in his locker, and Jeff (bar that miss, came on and had a go, offered protection to his full back, too). Too much ball watching first half, we harrassed them in the second and it paid dividends.
 

The entire back four was collosal second half; well done boys. Plenty to be optimistic about, can't wait for James, Drinkwater and Vards to return.

[Nick]

Great game - we should be the featured match on sky with any luck!

 

Moore was immense

 

De Laet and Morgan were excellent and to be fair Konch had a good game.

 

Schlupp is the new Dyer (in every sense apart from his tackling is superb on occasion)

 

Ulloa took his goal well and might have had another.

 

Fair play to Hammond and King

 

Mahrez played well but struggled positionally due to their set-up.

 

Knocky is growing but still looked prone to mistakes but justified his place in the squad.

 

Nuge never stopped running.

 

Wood - good for him and great sub and faith by Nigel.

 

Proud of the lot of them.

 

To be fair to Everton their two goals were class.

[ozleicester]

Yahoooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

and 2-2 @ 15/1  

 

happy days ... well done lads

[Matty Hamez]

Schlupp's miss was impressively bad, it's true. But WHAT a ball to pick him out. And a great run to get on the end of it. So many positives from the first game. Nothing you can do about finishes like that first goal.

[Jakemoore]

Watched it on a bar in Turkey on a stream, and went absolutely mental when wood slotted it. Absolutely what we deserved! Buzzin'for the lads, bring on Chelsea!

[dorsetboy]

great match which had not just a lot of positives but also some food for thought . 

 

mahrez played excellent second half and this was down to him being given a bit more freedom as baines stayed back more . 

 

knockeart looked ok but i felt he gave the ball away to much 

 

two cb were great 

 

credit to konch showed today that a good footballing brain and positioning will always be there when the pace is going . real top game by him. 

 

ulloa looked good and took his goal well  as did wood 

 

de laet for me gave the ball away to much . 

 

the food for thought 

 

when you think  though that should we get cambiasso then drinks,james and cambiasso in the middle will be far superior to what we had today. 

 

albrighton playing on the wing with his precision crossing for ulloa to head or knock on for the super fast vardy. 

 

makes me very excited to think with a full team we will be quite dangerous 

[Fox96]

I think Wood has earned himself at least another chance in the team.
