This time we did get it and returned the favor.
The stream I was watching had Foxes commentators, their tone changed when we got the 2nd, they even began slagging their own players off

The big worry is obviously Raphinha. I feel can manage without Rodrigo but losing Rapha will be a big loss.

Don't look now, but Bamford is the fourth-leading goal scorer in the EPL.

Raphinha and Rodrigo are big worries right now.

Didn't really see what Raphinha did but would expect Rodrigo to be out for 4-6 weeks if he's done his groin

Agreed

I am always in a bit of quandary. I very much admire Rodrigo, but I also like the Dallas and Klich midfield combination.

Almost perfect symmetry:

W 9
D 2
L 9
Gd-1
Shame we couldn't have got one more goal.

Who would have thought it after 20 games.

I am so HAPPY!!!

Thought this too. Made a lot of crucial tackles and looked so solid. Thought coops did well too, one absolutely crunching tackle at the end

Looking up now after that result rather than over our shoulders

Some tough games ahead but we can push on now

That is the first time that Leicester have been beaten after scoring first this season.

Great performance which ended with our Championship team.

Really worried about Raph and Rodders now.

But great team performance.

Dallas was superb at cm, fair play to him.

Klich upped his game when he came on.

Struijk had his best game by a mile imo.

Coops was ok.

Ali and Ayling did a job.

KP was solid, Harrison was ok.

Bamford was immense, absolutely brilliant.

Meslier did well.
Signed

We'll see if it's a simple strain or a pull. We'll know tomorrow. In any event, I don't expect him on Wednesday.

I don't mind Dallas at CM, but it means Alioski at LB and he worries me defensively

From Patrick Bamford

We are a strong group and we have added real talent and skill. Everyone has their feet on the ground. There are no superstars.
