Well City lost at Pool by same score...
Got done by an early header...couldnt score despite pressure...
Sounds familiar...🤓🤓🤓
At least Pool didn't hack the city players...like Leicester...

Nordtveit's Karate kick highlight of the match for me.

Since the season he helped create the great Escape SOMEONE has been slagging off Noble. Please stop.

Nordtveit doesn't play any worse than Tomkins did there last season. In fact his range of passing is better and he can use both feet. No doubt there are some who think Joey 'one foot' O'Brien should have been kept. I hope Byram is back soon or we bring someone in to play right back regularly.

I thought we deserved a draw for the 2nd half performance
Leicester could easily have been out of sight by half time
In the 1st half we looked particularly lethargic & the whole team looked like they need to practice passing the ball accurately
For my money, it's simply not good enough for professionals to give the ball away so easily & often as we did even under pressure
I thought Lanzini was superb when he came on for Noble. We looked quicker & more direct
I agree with others that Payet was pretty awful by the high standards he set last season & looks pretty disinterested

Good as Leicester were, we were slow and lethargic and didn't do the basics for the first twenty minutes. If we start as slowly against Man Utd they will flatten us pure and simple

Time to cash in on Payet. His value goes down by the game. Crappy free kicks and corners today

Nordveit got done so many times today, probably cause he is not a RB. He might be good in his natural position, but unfortunately bilic doesnt have the bottle to drop noble. We needed a proper midfielder to break up the play in the first 15-20 mins, best we have for that role currently is obiang

Dont get the criticism of nordtveidt, thought he was great defensively tiday, single handedky stopped 2 certain goals, yes he's not going to bomb on and overlap but he was solid today! Seems like people dont pay attention tonthe game and just want a scapegoat.

I don't think we started that slowly, Leicester were brilliant for the first 10-15 mins and would've caused most teams problems. We controlled the game for large parts but couldn't find a way through.
We didn't utilise Carroll enough, he dropped wide and deep far to often. Once I remember a good cross on his bonce near the end that he should've scored from
Deserved a point, decent performance, we move on

He would be very hard to sell. A lot of the core support still love him despite performances.

It'll take another 1 1/2 seasons for the management and board to realise that Noble is finished at this level. He's 'already painful to watch and its only going to get worse

What do we think other clubs would pay for Noble ? Big Sam at Palace 10 million perhaps

I hear what you are saying 1964 but do you not think that if we had him we would change our style slightly?
I'd rather have Defoe than Bacca, he will score 15-16 a season year in year out.

With the ref, felt it was pretty fair with the exception of the tackle on noble which was terrible and a red all day long.

If a team is the dirtiest in the league, their manager has got something to do with it.
I hate Ranieri's avuncular image - he's an Italian Revie.
