The players love these big games and being allowed to play.

I was thinking this the other day, with a lot of young players in the side we're getting up for the big games and not the others
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Don’t get suckered in by the absolute garbage True Blue comes out with. We are better against the big teams because they don’t 10 men behind the ball. It’s exactly the same for Wolves who have lost to Huddersfield and struggled against Palace and Cardiff
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah i get that, just looking for answers..

I saw that we needed width late on, but we're without the quality. And losing the game in the first 10 minutes

We need quality in the final third that’s for sure. That’s one of the reasons Tielemans has been brought in. Without Mahrez it hinges almost completely on Maddison who is still just a kid. He needs help and Vardy needs help. Shakespeare has the same problem - drawing a blank against Huddersfield for example

You guys played well. Barnes was a nightmare from what I was watching.

He's got a positive drive, which i like

I thought Maguire was going to salvage us a point at the end again...... But like Dublin said, why are we depending on defence for shots and goals? Vardy is too busy trying to win the ball back in our own half to be able to score anymore!

Positives: Barnes looked really good. Pleased he was given a chance and pleased he took it. A real shining light.

We were pretty evenly matched against a decent and revived Utd team. We deserved a draw.

We have improved since the abysmal spell after Christmas.

Negatives: Why oh why oh why drop Albrighton. What a stupid decision. Gray, Maddison and Barnes supposed to be providing defensive cover? I’ve been in nurseries with more experience than that!

Conceding in the first 10. Grrrrrrrrr.

Gray. For flips sake.

All in all today did nothing to concern me or give me hope. It looked like a transition game. At least we are looking better, but what still concerns me is our absolute lack of creativity in the final 3rd.

On another day one of our chances goes in and we get a point. Today was not that day.

We definitely deserved a point, you missed the number of chances we created as a positive.

The negative is we didn't take any of them although none were really guilt edged, earlier in the Season and last we created one or two chances a game but took them.

Just got to align the two together.

Another cracking game to come then back to Puel's way, lets hope we deserve at least a draw in them as well.

PS - Isn't Albrighton injured rather than dropped?

Rumour is Albrighton is carrying a knock

We definitely had no width today and as Mersey said vardy is too deep and the ids up top don't always play the right ball,
Grey and Mendy are off form but no one to replace them
Think utd had an off day thankfully

If you play Albrighton then you sacrifice pace and the ability to hit united on the break quickly. Yes he’s more defensively solid, but he has really struggling to give us any creativity out wide for some time, bar the odd goal or chance. Much of he’s attacking threats are balls in the box with no one on the end of them

Gray needs to leave as soon as possible and we need to get real quality out wide. Not just someone who can cross a ball, we need another Harvey Barnes basically
