Leicester City - v - Leeds United ***Matchday Thread"""

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

True but after years of Don Goodman pundits on sky nice to have the positives - sometimes think we are such media darlings we don’t get criticism when we might deserve.

Won’t last forever so may as well
Enjoy it I guess

Quality win. Looked really good today. We don’t lose many when MB has more than a week with squad. Strujiknlooks really solid. He is the best defender we have on balls in the air.

Not sure we looked good second half but we sure got the rub of the green which given how many times in the past it has happened to us I will gladly take.

Hope Rapha and Rodrigo are okay as they played well today and seem to link well.

Great performance (almost) allround.

Raphina just gets better; he did some great tracking back and defending. Dallas and Ayling were outstanding, Barndoor, Struijk and Harrison very good. Brilliant team effort and despite them having a strong spell at the start of the second half we completely deserved to win. I even got the prediction league score correct - possibly for the first time ever.

Slight downsides, why can't Meslier catch (although he made a couple of good saves) - he punched one corner that my granny could have caught which put us under pressure. Cooper continues to look very ponderous at this level. Costa is utter dog pooh; I think he had 3 touches and gave the ball away twice and a free kick the other time. My heart sank when I saw him coming on.

Hoping that the injuries are not serious.

Spot on Billy

To think, Ayling and Dallas cost less than a million between them - superb today against a top 6 premier team? bloody amazing, Bamford very unselfish giving Harrison the tap in that sealed it, Raphina definiitely looks the pick of the bunch in terms of transfers in. How good will we be when we have all our summer signings available and fit???

Just to mention Struijk, nothing clever today but definitely steadier than Coops, and a decent run in the side seems to be helping him out - think Phillips is also helping him along.

Great day when I expected nothing!

A couple of seasons ago you could have swapped Dallas for a packet of Cookstown sausages.

Unexpected, but great result, safety getting closer. Struijk looking better each game, him and Koch could be useful.
As been said, Costa offers nothing, lightweight & slow.

[LeedsFTW]

Struijk has impressed, quietly goes about his business and keeps it simple. The team definitely benefits from his physicality especially at set pieces.

Think Meslier must be one of the best signings we have had for a number of years, yes he doesn't do everything perfectly but he has kept us in a lot of games.

Would rather have coffee than a helda
