Is Ihencacho's contract running out anytime soon?

I know he's one of those who seems to score half his career goals v us but I don't think he'd be a bad pick up at all for 15-20m. Would be a good replacement for Ings for what he offers anyway.

Watching the game with my Leicester mate who’s good mates with Iheanacho. Iheanacho is desperate to leave.

Unfortunately I have a direct view of the North stand goal. It isn't pretty seeing 3 go in there. Hopefully a couple more to go in that goal second half. But the fancying around at the back has to stop. It's not doing my blood pressure any good at all

Fucking around at the back got us knocked out of the FA Cup, and it cost us the first goal here.

Clear foul on Kamara for the 3rd, no?

Yeah i want to see that again.

I have not seen a replay so will hold off definitive judgement but it seemed to me he went down easily. We do that a lot, starting under Gerrard, and I have commented on it before because it's not the first time it has exposed us on the counter.

Boubs, even with the two clangers, he's too important to us to drop. He's not been bad, just unlucky and a bit too casual. Light the fire under him and the team and lets get at them.

Well we played pretty well but actually physically presented them with three goals.  Just bizarre

Agreed, just need to clear our collective heads and go again. Buendia playing his best game in a Villa shirt? Luiz has been excellent too. Ollie was sharp for the goal. Played some great stuff at times but we have let the game turn into a basketball match.

Kamara had a shocker for two goals and isn't covering the counter attacks well enough either. More (a lot) needed from Ramsey/Bailey on that side. Digne is just so lightweight at left back. I'd nearly chance bringing on Cash at right back and switching Young over.

It looks like he had his ankle clipped from behind though.. either way it threw him off balance and you can’t let the opposing team just walk into the final third. It looked a clear foul!

He's been there since 2017. Still 26-27 so we could do worse in the summer I think. Would certainly give us something different to Ollie in six yard box and would've buried that chance he had at 1-1.

Maybe all this Emery magic is a myth.

Kamara doesn't play. We lose.
Kamara plays badly. We lose.
Kamara plays well. Which is most of the time when he plays.We win.

Leicester have better players than their league position suggests but fuck me that was awful to concede three at home to them in one half. We have to get back on level terms at minimum ASAP.
