Match Thread Leicester City v Everton (Wednesday 16 December 18:00)

[allezlesbleus]

Dramatic improvement over last two games! Well done to all! I live in Leicester and son in law supports them.... guess his phone battery has died or something!!!!

That Gomez was a liability tonight.

Clean sheet though. And they still couldn't break us down even when Allan went off.

We’re not holding out here, it’s fairly poor

I no Notting

Hope beginning to flicker again.. been a miserable git for weeks.. Chelsea win couldnt even jolt me... but back to back is a good result... Not back yet to positivity.. but this feels a lot better.

Gomez is a really bad replacement for Allan, he's gonna get cards and make penalties. But who else do we have in that spot? Not say Davies pls

 

[GT77]

I thought Harvey Barnes was going to give us nightmares after 10 minutes but once Holgate settled down we barely saw him again.

Checked because I couldn't remember there being a match on my birthday and this is the first game on the 16th since 2000 or something. Cadamateri scored the last time.

happy birthday mate!

 

[Frenk]

Back in the title race

Get in

Calm down.

Clinton Morrison on the co-com got most things right. And I agree Doucoure was motm. Actually played better when Allan went off.

I like Clinton. Jumbles up his words a little but enjoy him as a pundit.

....terrific. Main praise is for Ancelotti for getting the defensive organisation right. I’ve been very critical of him but the last two games have been terrific.

We carry threat, so if we can be defensively sound we are capable of winning games.

So many deserved of praise, all of the back four excelled but I thought Mina was worthy of special mention for a disciplined and efficient display. Allan terrific for his injury but we coped in his absence. Doucoure was outstanding, though, and has to be MoM for a very industrious and controlled midfield display.

UTFT.

 

[gonetomorrow]

Got to be Doucore MOM. Stepped up when required.

 

[BlueDraka]

Thought he did ok.
Always looks a bit of a calamity tackling back but he’s not first choice and did excellently from the bench

I thought he did ok. He lacks pace so he struggles but still a nice passer of the ball

 

[Medallo]

Congrats Everton. What a great win. Another one with solid defense. Two in a row against two top teams and without James. I'll give credit to Ancelotti who managed very well these two difficult games.

 

[LEONARD]

Come on Spurs, let's make it an even better night.

All played solid to good. Keane was immense, and although I've been slating him recently, Richarlison looked back on form again, well done lad. Doucoure Motm for me. He covered acres and offered some control after Allan went off.
