Hated every minute of that.

Just want to highlight nacho; watch the goal replay, you can see the moment his groin goes - and despite the pain and worsening the injury, he carries on to play the killer pass. Absolute determination and willing to give everything to the cause. fair play nacho, fair play 

Absolutely

 

That was truly HEROIC BY NACHO

And he was encouraging the fans limping off

What a man!

We are a threat when we have Vards and Kel together. 

To be honest I don’t know why this hasn’t been tried more. Even when Vardy isn’t scoring he makes space for Ian to do his thing.

 

I presume it’s because we don’t know what to do with Maddison and Barnes when we play both.

Ugh, should be a win, feel it has to be a learning curve for Smith, I’m not sure he’ll start Tete again, again I think Soumare is growing as a player and starts for me, Barnes clearly wasn’t fit, it’s important if he starts for Everton he’s fit

Once we did make the subs, we looked far better… could have done with making them sooner 

[lcfcfoz]

We will win our next 2

[filbertway]

Fun game and the xG shows it. Forgot what it's like to see Leicester try and score goals, loved it. Absolutely gutted for Youri for that goal being disallowed.

 

Credit to every man on the pitch tonight, could see there is still a bit of a lack of confidence at times. We stuck at it though and showed fight right till the very end. Loved Kel pumping up the crowd as he walked off as well.

[sdb]

Sick with nerves over here. At least the players care again.

[RowlattsFox]

Soyuncu absolutely class, calm and composed throughout. The odd moment but generally really good from Soumare too..

[South Shire Fox]

Would of taken the point beforehand. Vardy and Maddison looked sharp. Some of the defending and composure at the end, jesus christ. Kristiansen was honking

[TJQuik]

That result just makes next monday even more terrifying please, for the love of god come on Newcastle and brighton

[winteriscoming]

We make it hard work for ourselves. Too many players making stupid decisions. Will take a point but must beat Everton.

Hope Nacho just came off as a precaution

His groin definitely pinged, we’ve just got to wait and find out if it was a pull or a tear.

[Chrysalis]

We look dangerous with at least 3 strikers on the pitch, need to ditch the 1 striker system.

Draw isnt ideal, but it prevents Leeds pulling away from us so we still in the fight.

Nacho great performance, and pulled of an amazing pass after injuring his groin, really hope he recovers quickly.

[StriderHiryu]

I think we needed the win tonight. I think we played pretty good overall given what we are going through and were overall the better team. Once again though not being able to keep a clean sheet costs us points.

 

Really upset with the Nacho injury, that will him out of the next game and he was one of our best players tonight. Vardy bagging could be huge though.

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

Should have won it by the end probably. But will take the draw, a loss would have been disastrous. Last 25, other than the Iversen saves and Bamford miss incidents, we dominated. 

 

Good subs, heroics by Nacho passing whilst holding his knob, Iversen saves and Vardy back to scoring. Great stuff.

Should've started Vardy in hindsight or brought him on earlier. Barnes didn't look fit...Tete useless....solid at the back but Kristiansen had a tough game...thought Soumare played well and Youri did ok...Maddison is a touch of class but gutted if thats Iheanacho out now for a while....big big loss as links up our forward play well and to pass it through like he did...injured....my hero ❤

[southfox66]

A draw is fine.

[RowlattsFox]

Soyuncu absolutely class, calm and composed throughout. The odd moment but generally really good from Soumare too..

Super hated it? 

I have always preferred to be in a relegation battle or going for Europe over mid table obscurity. Nobody wants to be Villa. It is tough watching it but when the goal goes in, it means so much more. Isn’t that what it is all about?

[An Away Move]

I suspect Nacho is now out for the rest of the season 

[kingkisnorbo]

No way we get anything under Rodgers there. So much more fight under Smith. Impressed with him. 

[EnderbyFox]

VK was absolutely honking today, looked so nervous every time he has the ball & was being targeted all game. He’d have been off at half time if we had a replacement on the bench 

[Chester Dontlie]

I'll take that point. Yes, Leeds were doggo, but so were some of our players. Deano is learning what his best first 11 should be.

 

My biggest take away from this is, all of our Belgians should be starting from now on, Praet should be playing because Tete just doesn't work, he has zero confidence. 

Also Ian has to play beside either Vards or Daka (or both). Otherwise it's as bad as isolating Vards in the previous seasons.

Terrible result. That was our easiest game. Now Iheanacho-less, could be in the bottom 3 before the next one. 
 

Even if we beat Everton, we now have to beat at least one of the teams we can’t really expect to beat.
