Leicester 1- 1 Tottenham Post Match Thread

[South Shire Fox]

Wow. Team of strangers first half, completely different team the second. Fair fcking play

[STUHILL]

We gave Spurs far too much respect in the first 55minutes. 

As soon as we scored, we realised that we can match them, and we did just that! 

Great confidence booster for the players. 

We will still be battling regulation all season, but I loved seeing that fight and desire from the players. 

[lanefox]

As long as we show fight I don't care where we finish , point gained , roll on the posh chsvs next weekend, Tony Khan we're coming for you brother 

[Haywood_6]

They were the better team but we knew that anyway. We battled and we got a well deserved point. Well done to Cooper. Now let's back him and get a few more players in before the deadline because there is hope for us.

Second half was a real gutsy performance! Great result!

Are all of you that were completely finished with this club, sticking around for another week now?

Called it exactly. I said in my thread that got deleted - ‘let’s see if it’s still so negative on here after we put in a top performance and come away with a point on Monday night’

I just love vards, he’s the man that makes me come back again & again to watch this team on nights like tonight.

 

I do still think we need a new ST, so Mav can go back to LM.

 

Feels like a win, couple more bodies needed then I think we will be okay, I really do.

45???

we're all hoping the points deduction is only 6

[Stevosevic]

I wanted to see fight. I saw it.

 

Very happy with that tonight. 

[Webbo]

For all their dominance,  their keeper made the best 2 saves.

[Jakemoore]

Mads - did everything right with his hands but i don’t like him kicking it long. He’s good with his feet. Let him show it.

 

Defensive 4 all stayed together as a unit and defended well. Spurs only had two on target second half…..

 

Moving N’didi in to the 8 changed the game. With a double pivot their midfield had so much time to pick passes. N’didi without having to do much just disrupted them.

 

Abdul grew in to it and up against one of the best in the league. He is a gem.

 

Brighton loanee was class - if I learn his name I’ll fall in love and I don’t want to. So yeah, very good. But whatever.

 

Vardy is just Vardy - although he should have scored 2 but he’s already forgiven.

 

Cooper’s subs seemed at first to be defensive but they actually weren’t. We wrestled back some momentum which we had lost for 10 minutes and then finished the stronger.

 

I was absolutely adamant that we were going down this season. I still am. But maybe not adamant now. Maybe I just think we may….

 

I’m happy tonight 😂

No Vardy no party

[DJ Barry Hammond]

Football’s equivalent of rope-a-dope there.

 

Fail to know us out, we’ll strike back - arguably won the contest on points.

Love that he sunk a can of red bull before coming out for the 2nd half and getting his goal

Some really good individual performances in that second half tonight. The back 5, Vards, Winks Buonanotte all excellent 

[Itsthejoeker]

Have we finally got a manager capable of doing a half time team talk?

[coolhandfox]

Looked nervous and gave then to much respect early doors, grew into it.

 

One in the eye for all the doomsayers and negative buggers 

[Harry96]

Buzzing with that second half. None of them put a foot wrong very promising performances from the defenders and winks. Buanotte was brilliant too

A massive F you to a large number on here, the constant negativity day in day out, I don't care if it's one result, it was everything that so many of you said it wouldn't be!

Buonanotte....going to end up falling in love with a loan player aren't we? Class.

He looks so positive and always wanted to do something, didn’t look for the easy back pass which would kill momentum.  Lost so much energy and intelligence to be replaced with Soumare. Mav could’ve gone there with Cannon up top. 
 

I think Ndidi started to make too many stupid passes and then ends up in goal scoring chances.

Ricardo in for JJ to help Fatawu with attacks and we might be onto something.
