Simms and Lati two standouts for me.

Esse gonna do some damage but needs to not do a dance move every other touch.

Esse just needs to get his match sharpness; you could see his talent even if he was making the wrong decisions.

First half extremely poor, second half extremely good.

Rudoni looked like the Rudoni from last season in the second half; constantly finding pockets of space and playing clever balls.

Simms good, Wright even better when he came on. Eccles excellent.

Special mention to Rushworth from me too - outstanding again when needed

Yes. Rushworth great. The handling for the Fatawu save was exceptional.

Although our fullbacks didn't have their best games, they did keep two quality wingers pretty quiet

7s all around apart from:

Rushworth - 8. Some crucial saves to keep us in the game.
Simms - 8. Battled well all game. Fortunate goal but was in the right place at the right time.
Wright - 9. Powerful performance. Competed for everything. Chased players down. Won freekicks and scored the winning goal. Exactly how he should be playing every week.
Eccles - 8. Best performance for a while. Did exactly what we needed him to do in sitting alongside Grimes and shored up the midfield.

I thought Dasilva had a decent game Leicester had some good wingers and caught us cold first half but 3 points are massive as are all the players coming back from injury and the flu bug , let’s go on a good run now.

Torp ran his arse off, proper shift. Didn’t get any weaker with Eccles coming on either.

I don’t think they did. Leicester should have been 3 up at half time as we were ridiculously easy to get down the side of.

A comeback victory in a derby game and that 2nd half was enough to for me

Fair enough but imho that back line and grimes deserve no more than a 6 , we could have been 3 down at HT

There was one incident at the end of the first half when Grimes just couldn’t cover back at all. Without Rushworth we lose the game

I think we should be thankful we had so much pressure 2nd half, didn’t get our defence rattled as often.

Something can’t be right with him for such a consistent player to suffer this kind of drop off.

Yes fab result from a difficult situation but some of the ratings from people are on high side.

Totally understand the enthusiasm though.

Yeah, defensively we have real issues. High, non defending full backs and our midfield is very often vacant space. We’re ridiculously easy to score against.

I was actually cursing Thomas during the first half for getting sent off at brum because we were not much threat from our long throws without him and we missed him at the back .

Well he’s a crucial part of our game…maybe that knock at Southampton was more significant than it looked.

He covers a lot of ground and has played a lot of games. If he wasn't so pivotal, he would probably be given a rest.

As much as we moan about the CBs , granted roday they werent great at times .


Our fullbacks getting so high often cause us far more problems than anything our CBs do.

But its how we play ,.its high risk

I really enjoyed Esse today and thought his fantastic first touch and strike off the post was a real bit of quality. Looks like a fantastic addition.

Lati gave me palpitations almost everytime he got the ball but got better as the game wore on and turned in a solid performance, Eccles came on and showed some grit and great touches, Esse had moments of magic and was unlucky with his shot on the post, Haji came on and done what we all expect of him lets hope that continues, and that turn from Saka and shot for Hajis goal was brilliant ....even if he didn't mean it
