[Tibby Baggie]

We should stop moaning about the ref and focus on the lack of chances we actually created.  Apart from the Rondon goal and the penalty we did get, what really good chances did we create???  I can't think of any?  There were half chances like the one for Lambert at the end, and the individual bit of skill by Mcmannaman who bent it just wide of the post, but in general, we are too pedestrian and too predictable going forward.  Leicester on the other hand looked dangerous every time they went forward, created more, and  for that reason arguably deserved the win.  My old man summed it up perfectly in a text to me last night, ‘pace beats sh*te’.  Wonderfully accurate, and amusing, and he didn’t even watch the game!

The good old full back argument has raised its ugly head again.  I personally haven’t rated Brunt for 3 seasons, he is a championship player that we are accommodating into the team for some reason, too slow for Midlfield, no positional awareness for left back.  Although, credit where it is due on his 200th PL appearance for the club!   Dawson, is a centre half and he needs to move on for the sake of his  own career, as he is no right back and his game will suffer as a consequence.   We have a world cup performer (Gamboa) and a Belgian International LB (Pocognoli) in our squad, FFS just pick them Tony!  If they are sh*te, then let them prove it to us and we will happily shut up.  I thought Poc was very good at the start of last season, and would have thought he would be Pulis’ cup of tea, but obviously not.

Morrison needs to start at home, so it will be interesting to see what Pulis does.  If he sticks to 4-4-2, Morrison should play in the middle instead of Fletcher or Yacob as they are too similar and Mozza has the engine to go box to box.

I would personally like to see us play 4-5-1 formation with a midfield of Mclean, Yacob, Morrision /Sessengon, Fletcher, Mcmanaman.  We sacrifice a striker that way, but Mozza or Sess can play just ahead of the midfield where they are most effective, and to be fair, I don’t see much of a partnership between Beharino and Rondon.  

How Mcmannaman doesn’t get a start is beyond me?!?  Every time he plays he looks a handful!  
Would welcome peoples thoughts on the above.  I will also post this as a separate thread.

I can't accept that we didn't create much. 

A pedestrian team wouldn't have got into the penalty box as often and having 3 stone wall (in my opinion) pens turned down shows we did create chances. Leicesters players didn't allow us to take them by fouling our players and got away with it. 

Their second goal was also offside.

If we'd played poorly I'd accept the result, but quite frankly I thought most players gave a good account of themselves and Leicester did play well. 

Whether they deserved all 3 points is up for debate. I'm not convinced they did and Ulloa should have been sent off for our first pen shout.

Long way back at 2-0 with 10 men...
