With him we're shite too
Doesn't matter what we have in Eriksens position - with the lack of pace and runs made we would be shit with Zidane there.

Clinton wasnt on the bench, and they were not noisy we were.He or the new guy Clinton would've been good to bring on. Carroll didnt get much of a chance and Bentaleb was too late. Taking off Lamela was the right thing to do though.
I didn't think we were too bad tbh. Safety conscious - but against a crazily in form team in front of very noisy home support on a baking hot day.
And Rose too.So when is potch going to play Tripier ffs.
I was sat with home fans. Got a Leicester supporting uncle who had a mates season ticket so I was undercover.. Sounded pretty loud to me, louder than we are at home. Generally quite impressed with their singing. Them paper clappers are effing annoying though.Clinton wasnt on the bench, and they were not noisy we were.
They give them cardboard clappers for a reason, you must have been a long way from us if you thought they were load. I could hardly hear them.I was sat with home fans.

And yes I know Clinton wasn't on the bench but would've been good for a few minutes. Surely no less pointless than bringing on Bentaleb on 90?
A bit harsh. Eriksen is our best out field player and would have made a difference. My gripe for a while has been the lack of leaders on the pitch. Yesterday we basically laboured, scored then just stopped. We didn't learn after a few runs from Mahrez, surely Chadli and Davies needed to cover our left flank. As soon as we scored those two should've dropped back to help us cling on. Before everyone says it's easy with hindsight, yes that's fair criticism. Even at half time I felt if we stopped him we'd stop Leicester.Without Eriksen we're shite!
Njie and Son already in, don't think we need the DM as Dier is doing relatively well in that position for a youngster, although I believe we might still land one. I still suggest that despite your damning verdict after the Leicester game, its not been too bad a window.Nothing to it... Just three players in a week. Not too much to ask for.
We didn't control the game because we were so good. I believe that Ranieri surrendered possession in favour of the counter. And it showed. They didn't press us, they invited us to their half.
I was taught at 5 years of age to always show the attacker away from the goal.
