Mings almost looked in tears in the post-match interview. 🤔

Mings almost looked in tears in the post-match interview. 🤔

Why,what happened?

[charleeco7]

Good battling performance and three across the middle really works. It’s a common theme that both luiz and Nakamba get caught in possession, hence why we miss SJM and why we are after another midfielder.

[SoccerHQ]

Overall very happy with that.

I thought we'd lose 3-1 or worse so to go back to VP (where we tend to do o.k in second legs) level is excellent.

Still worry Leicester will have too much nous. We just lack that mentality throughout the team to relish opportunities when we're surprisingly 1-0 up away from home.

Just retreating to our six yard box and forgetting simply how to pass isn't good enough and hasn't been for all the occasions this season. We need some more experienced players for that as too many in the side simply don't seem to relish that type of match scenario.

[Risso]

He just looked mightily pissed off.

If this presenter calls him "Eric Konsa" again the I-Pad is going through the window!

[TonyD]

That was a pleasant surprise.

Great to see a change in formation.

Some good performances from 9 out of 11 of the players.

Nyland was superb. No need to splash out on a keeper.

Luiz poor but special mention for Marvellous - so awful it was staggering.   Need to move them on with Wes.

Anyway 90 mins from Wembley.  I think we will do it.

Mings almost looked in tears in the post-match interview. 🤔

Strange but I noticed during a close-up in the 2nd half that he almost looks ill or something? Big dark rings under his eyes. Hope he's alright and nothing personal has gone down.

[Davkaus]

How about singing anything about Konsa apart from about the size of his nob?

[Scovilla]

Very please with the result, the attitude but shit we must play 90 minutes like the first 45.

[KRS]

Would have taken that before the game, but that equaliser was our usual shoddy nonsense.

This.

Both Marv and Luiz simply aren't good enough for this level. They either need to up their game or be moved on.

[RamboandBruno]

Like a lot of people thought we would get stuffed tonight. But although they had a few chances we defended superbly for the most part. Mings a giant and was constantly organising those around him.

We got stronger as first half went on and I was pleasantly surprised that after they scored we actually got stronger instead of falling apart.

Soft goal, was going mad at Luiz at time, but Konsa shouldn’t of passed to him there.

But nevertheless really proud of the team and if we play like that with that formation with a bit more attacking threat, we will be ok this season.

Watched this on sky, they really wanted Leicester to do us, apart from Hendrie.

Leicester still favourites but looking forwards to a rocking VP on 28th

He just looked mightily pissed off.

Kid's a winner just like Grealish. We need to sign 3-4 more of those over next 12 months otherwise they'll be more hard luck stories this season and next.

[Clampy]

A stupid moment of madness cost us the win and to be honest, I wasn't expecting to say that. Mings and Nyland were immense. Luiz and Nakamba showed tonight why he's bought in Drinkwater. As good as they might turn out to be be, they're still a bit raw and it showed at times. Overall, delighted with the result.

Who needs Peepee Reina? Nyland's a baller or whatever the yoof say.
