Re: Ratings v Leicester
Lloris - 8.5. Our saviour. Won us this game almost single-handedly, and suffered a bloody mouth in the process. Hero, and he really does deserve to be playing behind a defense that can better protect him.
Walker - 5.5. Rusty, so gets a reprieve of sorts. Sloppy in possession, though, and was dominated by Schlupp.
Fazio - 6.5. Solid game, heart-stopping miscued clearance towards the end aside.
Verts - 6.5. Solid game.
Rose - 2.5. Woeful positioning - tucked in far, far too deep, and was shredded into pieces by Mahrez.
Bentaleb - 4.5. Sub-par game from the young lad, misplacing possession and losing his man too often. His age and inexperience both excuse him to a large extent, though.
Stambouli - 5. Didn't really look comfortable after the first 25 minutes.
Lamela - 6. Made some great passes (set up Bentaleb and Chadli beautifully), but also was frustrating when it came to a)retaining possession under pressure, and b) knowing when to release the ball and when to dribble. More work needed.
Eriksen - 7. Great passing today, grabbed the winner (through a huge slice of luck, but hey, it counts).
Chadli - 6.5. Worked hard, grabbed an assist, but otherwise anonymous.
Kane - 7. Worked hard as usual, grabbed a goal as usual. Love this lad.
Subs:
Mason - 5.5. Didn't really have a chance to get into the game as Leicester battered us right from the off in the second half.
Soldado - N/A. See above.
Paulinho - N/A.
