Match Thread Leicester City v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[ForeverBlue92]

Keeper’s had the game of his life, it’s one of those but the Scotch Egg has cost us by not changing things there, get Gray and Simms on and we likely win it

Behave man DCL fluffed his lines for an absolute sitter.

Should have finished 2-3 to the good guys.

It's a good point. It's another chance at survival given how other results went. Slim chance albeit but it improves our chances compared to where we were at half time. Great performance, we were the better side but as I said earlier it's the simple things we get wrong that cost us most games. If we continue to play like that we'll pick up at least another 6 points especially with Wolves and Bournemouth potentially being in holiday mode come our fixtures against them. Whether that's enough remains to be seen and depends upon Leeds, Leicester and Forests results going in our favour.

Brilliant, I love having to rely on hope and pure chance for this, instead of settling it ourselves when we could have.

One more point than Leeds and Forest does it. I am still optimistic

 

[coollino]

Well brighton next …. Put 6 past wolves

Hmm

And lost again Forest

 

[Cels]

Hope Seamus Coleman makes a full and speedy recovery, it didn't look good for the guy.

 

[ForeverEverton]

We are going to draw ourselves to safety aren’t we

Dyche is playing a dangerous game if he is looking at that Bournemouth game to keep us up...

 

[Abertonian]

SD let the boys down there. Chance to try and take the 3 points, might rue those 2 points in a few weeks.

Plenty effort but some players really aren't good enough. Criminal the money we spent on some of them.

McNeill MOTM for me.

 

[Mr PEN86]

It might be one of those seasons where we keep drawing games to somehow stay up. Wins are clearly too elusive at the moment

 

[carolinablue232]

Great use of the bench Sean, just marvellous.

It looked like subs were warming up for like 30 minutes too.

 

[NorthernBlue]

I also don’t get JP celebrating here. Still 19th pal.

Typical small time mentality we have. Images of relegation battles plastered on the walls of the training ground etc

 

[Dwight K Schrute]

Have to say it, I really, really hate Sean Dyche. More negative than Allardyce and about 5% of his tactical nouse. We HAD to win that game and zero subs. He is a new level of pathetic.

 

[Tony101]

Brighton away and Man City our next 2 fixtures? Tremendous

I hope Newcastle beat Arsenal so City can get the league done and concentrate on the champions league before they play us.

 

[varnish]

It’s gonna go all the way to the Bournemouth game, cue a Motd special where they cut across four games as we jostle for relegation.

 

[Fansince1988]

With a half decent manager we had won today. Heck, i even think half of the people in this forum would have won today if they were the manager

Not really much to choose from on the bench, yes Gray might have done something but that’s about it, Pep wouldn’t have done any better with this lot.

 

[bluelegend]

McNeil and Garner were excellent. Myko also.
