Well it's not exactly been a classic but we're leading & that's exactly what we need after the Spurs result.

 

If I can say that after the game, I'll be very happy with the way the game has gone.

 

I would swap Matic for Cesc though as his passing has been atrocious today.

Can Kurt Zouma play striker? Im half serious

Definitely missing a striker, we need to bring Michy on for Willian

Interesting how the second half by Antonio will turn out to be :

1- Gridlock defence to see a classic 0/1 win?

2-Insert of the Magician Fabregas to double/triple the lead?

we are clearly off the boil - that first half was pretty poor from both sides but our sloppiness and poor passing in killing our game. worryingly we look as though we think we can ride this one out at 1-0 and as we all know that mindset is a recipe for disaster 

Moses was completely anonymous in the first half, hoping for things to change for the better in the final 45 minutes. 

matic has totally forgot how to place a pass accurately. such an inconsistent player it's frustrating. 

willian is poor too

cahill looks like his usual self, i.e. one mistake away

Vardy is such a knob. Thinks he's well hard. 

He plays like a chav in the school playground, hard until someone starts kicking him.

We're missing a target man, too many midgets in the middle and attack.

Matic has been poor, misplaced passes all over the place. Willian struggling. Hazard needs to step up, these are the type of games where you need to show you're world class and he's anonymous once again.

Matic has been really poor, his passing is terrible. 

We are missing the target man up top but I doubt he will use Michy which is frustrating 

Swap Willian for Fabregas and play 3-5-2, improves our awful precision and helps us control the central midfield.

would trade haz straight up for lallana this disappearing act is getting tired

Some of these guys need to wake up, especially Willian and Hazard. 

Willian for Fab needs to happen asap.

Right, steady on...

I can't see Conte changing much unless Leicester score. Bringing Batshuayi or Fabregas might make for a prettier game but would weaken us defensively.

ok not really but Hazard is a top ten player in the world and needs to start playing like it

With Fabregas for Willian we would have 3 vs 3 in the central midfield and he dosen't loose the ball on his first or second touch during a whole half.

Steady on is right. 2 lallana's don't equal 1 hazard

I hope Conte doesn't wait for them to equalise before making changes similar to what Mourinho did last season.

We are the most consistent team in the league but not the best I feel right now, I worry about big games

I disagree, Matic gave the ball away within 3 minutes and it almost cost us a goal & the amount of possession he's gave away today I would say weakens us defensively as it's conceding possession to the other team.

 

i also think that Leicester are finding space between Matic & Kante that if it was Fabregas in the centre it would be getting highlighted a lot more than it does when it's Matic.

 

That's my opinion anyway.

I hope Conte doesn't wait for them to equalise before making changes similar to what Mourinho did last season.

I feel this is in the cards.

I think we've actually been pretty good. Just one more please.

Batman to come o  and get a brace...
