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.

He really didn’t. He made one routine save at 1-0. He made an excellent save at 1-1.

Hes a different player to anything weve got and had he scored that today it would have been sensational , the deft touch to create the chance was brilliant

Time working with frank and game time we will see a monster im sure

Got beaten at his near post for the goal, which is becoming a bad habit.

Made a couple of routine stops which you'd expect, and held on well to a shot that was hit straight at him.
No idea where all the 8's and 9's are coming from.

Not sure the goal was his fault.

That save that he tipped over was very good when it deflected up.

Goal wasnt Rushworth’s fault at all, made 2 good saves to deny Fatawu, that great save in the 1st half too to stop it going 2-0

As we were pretty crap for half of the game nobody should get over a 7.

The exception is rushworth. And we should worry that yet again we got a win because of our goalkeeper. Lati was good but the rest of the back 4 really struggled in their core job - defending

Two scrambled slightly fortuitous goals

We really need that midfielder.

Is Grimes just knackered? Would be pretty understandable really, we ask a lot of him and has he even missed a minute in the league?

I hope people aren't calling that tip over the bar routine. The player completely miskicked against his own foot, sending the ball looping in the opposite direction than he intended. It was a top save and proved to be absolutely vital.

I'm consistently amazed at some of the saves Rushworth makes that just stick to his hands. A shot can be blasted at him and he'll just collect it like his hands are smothered in glue.

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'm a fan of grimes, but he was ball watching for their goal, and they just play around him.
poor.

Yes we could have been 2-3 down at half time, but second half we could have scored 3-4 ourselves. That second half performance was brilliant but yes sadly the way we play with the fullbacks so high will always leave us open to counter attacks, which is all Leicester had second half

I thought we were lucky to go in at half time only 1-0 down, 2nd half felt totally different.

Rushworth - brilliant, if we win the league a lot of credit will be due to him
MVE - not his best yet, not linking well with Esse
Lati - looked rusty some awful passing
Kitch - Magnificent in 2nd half, winning everything
DaSilva - good game
Grimes- OK
Torp - fabulous defensive game
Rudoni - He's got his passing game together now and of course an assist, there is more to come
EMC - decent game going forward but maybe not so much defensively
Esse - Some wonderful work but gave MVE virtually no cover and tried too many tricks
Simms - Good game, the goal wasn't great quality but looking at the replay he got more of a touch on it than I thought

Haji - Excellent work, he even chased down Leic midfield a few times and
Saka - I breathed a sigh of relief when he came on and he
Eccles - Steadied the ship, never lets you down
BTA - too early to tell but thankfully he is back

Referee and Linesmen - Gave nothing for us, awful bloody awful, we should have had a pen maybe two.

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.

They were left hung out to dry most the time by the midfielders not going with their runners. In that first half DaSilva was having to mark Fatawa and Jordan James or Oliver Skipp.

I didn't see the game in fairness, wanted to but had committments I couldn't get out of today. Just going off what I read, sounded like he had an off day.

I am just giving everyone 7 as a team performance. Leicester did a job on us tactically early on. We grew into the game. Both sides had moments of skill and other times it was an arm wrestle.

Signs players are back to fitness and fueled. Some good skill sets, scruffy bits but
RESOLVE won the day.

Lati was superb today. In fact he’s been excellent every time he’s been called upon.

Wash your mouth out, Matty Grimes can do what he likes!!
Seriously, it was really uncharacteristic, but luckily we got away with it

Lati for me I’m afraid. Didn’t go in for the tackle in the half way line and the quick attack stemmed from that. Crap defending after that aswell in all fairness.
