Nope, I went to bed early, feeling a bit moby.
Woke up to a good result, though still not well.

Seen it now, Baleba got caught by the Bournemouth player's follow through, have a look at it again.

Exactly what I went through - couldn't understand why he hadn't passed it to one of the other frontrunners, till Mitoma appeared on the screem!

How can it be an honest decision to book someone for a foul he has not seen?

Just seen the 2nd yellow. Wow. Very very soft. If that’s a yellow, then every single foul is a yellow. Barely even touches the Bournemouth player.
MoTD conclusion as well.

Does it natter though when we win? Couldn’t give a f*** about the ref.
MoTD also weren't convinced it was even a foul

It was a poor decision as was the Brentford sending off. Leicester should have had a couple of players sent off with reckless tackles flying around.

It certainly did, that and some laxative !!

Wasn’t at the game but curious how Evan contributed after coming off the bench. Would bringing on McConville for Welbeck notwithstanding his inexperience and switching to a back five as we did at SJP have helped avoid conceding the consolation goal?

It was great to see McConville on the bench!
It's getting harder and harder for the youth to get called up at the moment as we have an abundance of quality players.
Tho I think Evan was the right choice. We already parked the bus and needed fresh legs in that slot (Evan can play midfield)
Did what was expected of him - held the ball up well, harried in midfield. To the blokes stood near me slagging him off for not pressing their keeper, we were down to 10 so isolating himself with a pointless lone press would have left a gap in the middle
Having watched it on MOTD I really can’t see the foul. He doesn’t make a tackle, he’s just running.
This is something I like about us this season. It feels like there have been a few games where we haven’t been the better team but we have been the more clinical team.
Quite easily, from the angle he was at, it looked like a foul and a second yellow. As I've already said twice, he called what he saw (and having seen replays, Baleba did actually catch the player)
