WOW Regis scores......i mean Junior -
Certainly a well taken goal!Originally posted by phild View Post
Nice to see the changes, though surprised that Styles not on in midfield in place of Mowatt or Molumby.
Leicester are decent and causing us some problems at the back but nice to see us with more energy going forward. He may come to us from the Vile, and obviously very early days, but have a feeling that Junior may become a bit of a fan favourite if he continues as he is.Comment

Great goal Omeg. Still think the pairing of Molumby and Mowatt can be improved with either Styles or Collyer in terms of quick feet and pace. Leicester are cutting through the middle.
We are living a bit dangerously so need a second.Comment

Leicester look good going forward but so far our defence has mostly dealt with them well. Campbell may be no Furlong going forward but defensively he is a big improvement on him, even if he is more naturally a CB . Phillips and Mepham look pretty solid and though Taylor has his hands full at times, he is better than Styles defensively.
Given Leicester are dangerous with their wide players especially we need to continue doubling up and supporting each other in defence and then make the most of our counter attacks. Great to go into the break 1-0 up, but will feel a lot happier and more comfortable if we can get another goal between us!Comment

Agree with you Al-Leicester are decent but we do also seem to be giving them a few too many half chances which they will surely capitalize on sooner than later. Could do with a second goal and maybe time for Price to show some of the magic that hasn't been too evident in recent games?Originally posted by baggieal View Post
As I type, that didn't look a yellow card from Phillips and a free kick in a dangerous position for Leics now but wall held.Comment

Need a second Omeg. Totally agree about your comments regarding Taylor and Campbell!Originally posted by Omegstrat6 View PostComment

Price disappointing again for me!Comment

Luckily for us Leics were poor with their final ball for most of this game but that equaliser was coming given how much defending we had to do. Will rue those misses, especially Price's and Maja's, to finish them off.
Really disappointed now but tbf, while it certainly feels like a loss, on the balance of play a draw was probably a fair result from a neutral's point of view.
Have to dust ourselves down and go again but, for me, the changes brought improvement and good to see Mason prepared to make them, even if a bit belated.Comment

Agreed. One moment of flair slipping that ball through but didn't have too much impact and should have scored too.Originally posted by baggieal View PostComment

I think that the back 4 of Campbell, Phillips, Mepham and Taylor is pretty sorted and with Iling Junior and Mikey we have threats from both wings now. I know Heggabo had a tough game today and Maja had that chance he really should have put away but played together, I still think they will get us goals. Thought Molumby did ok today but would like to see Styles in maybe for Mowatt to give us more energy in midfield. Price I thought was just ok tonight and agree that it was disappointing again not to see more of the magic he is capable of.Originally posted by baggieal View Post
Mason's post match interview pretty much summed up tonight. We were better organized than we have been in other games and the changes made did create us more chances but he is also very aware that we still need to work on taking our chances when they do fall to try and kill games off and avoid being punished for not doing so. This is the failing we need to concentrate on now.
Disappointed but Leicester are a good team and there were at least some positives in the improvements seen tonight.Comment

Agree with all your points although prefer Collyer to Styles. Leicester are a class side.Comment

Still unsure about Collyer, Manure fans rate him but maybe I just need to see more of him before I can more properly judge him. I watched a few of the Hungary games where Styles played in midfield and thought he did well in that position. Admittedly, he played a couple of loose balls tonight but he does bring energy and attacking intent to the team.Originally posted by baggieal View PostComment

I was disappointed to see Mowatt and Mulumby starting, but to be fair they both put a decent shift in.
The Wallace substitution was strange give the state of the game and the evident tiredness of Mulumby.
Indeed Leics are a decent side and I’m envious of the swiftness of their counter attacking passing.Comment
