West Brom - Post match

[FoxinNotts]

Never in doubt 👀

[foxes_rule1978]

That makes up for us throwing 2 pts away at Wednesday 

[winteriscoming]

I don’t think we’ve played well this week but have taken 7 points out of a possible 9. No idea how but I’ll certainly take it. 

[Mendi]

Huge win

[CosbehFox]

Bewildering how Kelly had the full 90. Thankfully didn’t mess up the pass at the end 

[Blanchflower78]

Thought we edged that over 90 in fairness. Been critical of late but felt today we were better with the system. Passing felt quicker and the general pace of play sharper, clearly been discussed since Wed's night.

 

Still not my preferred style to watch, but you back who and what's in front of you.

Not great and somewhat a struggle again but we got the win.

 

What a winner, something from yesteryear! Wonderful! A thing of beauty, a really good goal!

 

The way we ground it out and manner of the win hopefully stops the rot and we can push on again....  

[adejo92]

Thought we looked much better than we have the last few games.

 

Still very little attacking threat.

 

Still very negative football.

 

But yeh, that's a very good & deserved win although God knows what West Brom were doing, clearly thought we were there for the taking & paid the price.

 

Still not sold on Enzo & his tactics, and today's win hasn't changed my mind in the slightest, but I'll enjoy it.

[Simonb]

I'm hoping the feeling off losing 2 points again, yet turning it around will give the squad the boost we need.

 

Beat Plymouth next week and hopefully it was a blip and it's over 👍

I got some good natured ribbing in the match thread for being so frustrated by us conceding but my point still remains; we need to stop being so negative when we score. We have attacking threats all over the pitch. When teams finally come out and try and attack, that is the time to put the game to bed.

We were incredibly lucky. I hope the manager and the other backroom staff urge the players to keep pushing for goals (in a considered, non reckless way) after we score late in a game.

Pretty average all around, although I thought KDH and Wilf were brilliant for the whole match. KDH's motor is utterly elite. He never tires. Fatuwu was also good when he came on.

West Brom seemed well prepared and cut off many of our passing lanes. A tricky fixture.  A lucky escape, hope we learn some lessons from it.

I thought Kel was bang average but that last pass to start the break away was just chefs kiss amazing. Fair play. 

 

Spot on! Looked like we were settling for a 1-0 win, instead of pushing on. Ndidi stopped making the runs beyond Fatawu that produced our first goal.

[Strokes]

Nothing beats the feeling of a last minute winner does it?

[Corky]

That is a huge result. Character needed then shown after conceding.

[Md9]

I like nacho but Really need to play vardy or cannon next game. If you play nacho you have to play someone with him he doesn’t really press and he is slow. 
 

[Hammo]

Never was the expression ”all’s well that ends well” so apt.

 

One beautiful last-minute counterattack obliterates all that went before.

[Vacamion]

 

For 10 minutes before we scored, including when we scored, Wilf Ndidi was a class above. 

 

 

The commentators have a lot of faults, but they spotted his class up top.

 

I know replacing him with Casadei isn't ideal, but he is still coming back from injury.

What a player Vestergaard is!

He caused their goal by hitting the ball out to the side allowing the long throw into the box instead of belting it down field thou.

 

Yes he then got a defenders header out of the box, it was actually Nacho who made the goal by staying on his feet and keeping hold of the ball prior to releasing KdH

Corberan refusing to shake Enzo's hand?

Too harsh. The late goal doesn't change the fact that most criticism from the fans is valid. 

No it's not. We played well. We won one of the toughest fixtures this season. We are top of the league. 

 

Some people, seriously need to take a look at themselves. Entitled much?

That felt good. That felt føkking good!

 

That has to be one of the most satisfying wins of the season - to go to one of the division's form teams, on their own patch where they'd only lost 1 in 10, out of a very frustrating run of games - effectively we were the underdogs going into that - to almost blow it but then to show we have the quality and the drive to go on and win. and what a goal!

 

And to see the city fans (best we've come across this season for me) singing 'Leicester' to KDH - chills.

 

I know this is quite the overreaction, but it's been such a drag with all the negativity on here this last week, it was just great to get back to what we do so well.  couple of sloppy passes aside, we made them look bang average - if only we were better in the final third!

[Muzzy_no7]

What on earth were West Brom doing chucking everyone forward gifting us that counter for Winksy?! Madness!

 

Great result, iffy performance but as long as the players and Enzo learn moving forward we will still get 100pts+.

 

27 games to go, I’d say a minimum of 46 pts needed.

Thats because he was subbed.

[Lcfc82]

Love how the winner was in total contrast to our style of play

I think they'd shaken hands and he didn't want the camera in his face tbh
