MIGHTY CLARETS versus Lestrrr

[Zlatan]

I fear we missed captain fantastic tonight, simple as that

[superdimitri]

Barnes is just so much better than McNeil or Lennon. Sorry to say it but..

[KateR]

Tarks definitely not been himself tonight

[RVclaret]

This scheduling coming back to bite us. Typical that Leicester didn’t have a game this weekend. They’ve been sharper all over.

[willsclarets]

We haven't looked sharp, which isn't surprising. A few quality players have made the difference for them.

[ClaretDiver]

Christ some people are so negative…I thought we played well tonight but what do I know!

[joey13]

Leicester won the league again ?

[Pearcey]

We haven’t played well but that’s a sickening result.

[willsclarets]

Barnes is just so much better than McNeil or Lennon. Sorry to say it but..

He seems to tear us apart every time we play them

[gandhisflipflop]

I ******* hate Jamie ******* vardy

[nyclaret]

aaaand the Championship is calling again.

[Zlatan]

And onto the next game - see you all Saturday for Chelsea

[jojomk1]

Barnes is just so much better than McNeil or Lennon. Sorry to say it but..

Barnes is way better than our guys - but we all know knew that before the game started

[CoolClaret]

Not sure Roberts deserves the shirt ahead of Lowton - he’s been turned inside out two weeks on the trot

[Zlatan]

aaaand the Championship is calling again.

Haha, you funny

[Gunfury]

Pope didn’t deserve to concede 2 goals tonight

[tiger76]

We haven't looked sharp, which isn't surprising. A few quality players have made the difference for them.

Fair summary, we haven't been great, but the impact Maddison and Vardy have made from the bench has proved the difference.

[RVclaret]

Christ some people are so negative…I thought we played well tonight but what do I know!

Come on, we were well well below all recent performances, both defensively and attacking.

[KateR]

CP game and tonight not as good as we played for several games but, they're coming thick and fast now, need to get them back up for the next one, which is clearly going to be very difficult

[Iloveyoubrady]

We were **** tonight. We move on now as there are much more important games, starting with Chelsea next up, but that was a **** show - probably tiredness but we didn’t have the right tempo to pass the ball or ever even look like scoring.

[joey13]

Christ some people are so negative…I thought we played well tonight but what do I know!

Not a lot if you thought we played well

[jedi_master]

Agree, we would have nicked the 0-0 with him in the side.

Collins is a great prospect, but a nerve shredder like this needed experience and Tarky never looks as strong playing on the left of the centre back pair.

A very damaging result as this was our opportunity to leapfrog multiple teams and really set the cat among the pigeons. We now have a game we're unlikely to get anything from before an absolutely crucial six pointer at Brentford.

[Vino blanco]

Totally outplayed by a team who pass the ball forward quickly. How Westwood gets anywhere near our starting eleven I will never, ever know. We have played well in midfield recently with good shape and balance. Westy comes back and we are clueless.

[KRBFC]

Miles away tonight, looked like the toothless side we've seen all season, **** all midfield, Westwood's an absolute disgrace, blindly hooks the ball anywhere for their first goal and the ball comes straight back and we concede.

[jojomk1]

This scheduling coming back to bite us. Typical that Leicester didn’t have a game this weekend. They’ve been sharper all over.

And with an ageing squad these catch up games were always going to be a struggle - we've done well to take the points we have

[nyclaret]

Cork in for Westwood. Westwood is only on the pitch to play those boring hooked balls. Dyche needs to find a way to fit Max in. He looks lost up top.

[FCBurnley]

Maddison stood 10 yards offside for the first but we got what we deserved. Nowt. Barnes way too good for Roberts. They looked fresh. We looked shattered

[tarkys_ears]

Were quickly back to our usual selves

[jedi_master]

Cork in for Westwood. Westwood is only on the pitch to play those boring hooked balls. Dyche needs to find a way to fit Max in. He looks lost up top.

Cornet is the very definition of 'curates egg'.

[BurnleyFC]

I ******* hate Jamie ******* vardy

His missus is a **** as well.

[Newcastleclaret93]

Really strange decision from Dyche to drop Rodriguez and Cork tonight.

Add in the forced change to Pieters and the team fell back into poor performances we have seen the rest of the season.

Dyche needs to stick to that winning team.

[gsyclaret]

why did't we play it on the deck like we have been doing

[Tribesmen]

Look no complaints Leicester were the better side , sometimes you just have to take it .

[Elizabeth]

Beaten by a better team tonight , Vardy and Madison were the difference in the end .
Not one of our better performances but we can play better

[jojomk1]

Cork in for Westwood. Westwood is only on the pitch to play those boring hooked balls. Dyche needs to find a way to fit Max in. He looks lost up top.

Hoof ball doesn't fit Cornet or WW

So why play it ?

Cork needed the break

[THEWELLERNUT70]

I wouldn't be too harsh on the lads after the run of results in February that has got us back in and amongst it.

Barring some worldies and a few great bits in and amongst, the majority of Cornet’s contributions so far, have been well below standard.

Quite how we get the most out of him (I’m not saying he’s a bad player) I don’t know, but we need much more from him.

If we can’t get him performing on the wing, we need to do something a little different to utilise him more effectively up front.

[Pommieclaret]

1 game to many I'm afraid

[matttheclaret]

Cornet is the very definition of 'curates egg'.

Looks way off it atm

[Hedontplayforyou]

Some shocking performances out there today. Need that shaking out of them pronto

[Jakubclaret]

Look no complaints Leicester were the better side , sometimes you just have to take it .

“You just have to take it” we have been doing on a regular basis a few results aside without the lube.

[Bigvince]

4 games in 10 days, and we’re bound to look a little lethargic, I thought we played ok but never really looked like we were gonna win it. Still 7 points from 4 games is a pretty good return in the situation we are in!

[CombatClaret]

Bu88er

For a home game, in-hand vs a mid-table side with very little to play for I was hoping we'd seize the moment.
By the 60th I was resigned to 0-0

If we can’t get him performing on the wing, we need to do something a little different to utilise him more effectively up front.

I am starting to have this opinion as well. He is a real luxury player that I’m not sure we know how to get the best out of him.

I think Jay will feel really hard done by after recent performances

[jojomk1]

If you take into account the number of great saves from Pope that could have been a big loss

Interesting to see the starting eleven on Sat although I don't expect any changes apart from Mee if injured

[BurnleyFC]

I sincerely hope Ben Mee isn’t out for any length of time.

[willsclarets]

I don't think we were totally outplayed, we just didn't have the cutting edge at the right moments at both ends. On another night we score a couple of goals there. But we weren't great granted.

We were clearly a bit fatigued, and maddison/Barnes/Vardy made the difference. Their defenders also made some good last ditch tackles.

I just hope we don't get a good beating on Saturday. Not expecting much against Chelsea, but after than we have 7 days break before Brentford, and another 7 days before Southampton.

[KRBFC]

I mentioned the Westwood blind hook on the edge of our box away at Leeds where it cost us a goal then, why does he keep doing it? panic clearance anywhere will do, bring the ball down, turn and pass and we're on the counter attack....

I’d be amazed if Rodriguez and Cork don’t start
