It’s been well over five years since these two sides met. No team is invincible, no Melton Mowbray pie is uneatable, no Nathan Dyer in either side.
 Swans injury update : Cabango out for big Leicester City test 19th Oct 2023 08:00Swansea City have now conceded that Ben Cabango will not play a part in Saturday’s big game against Leicester City at the Swansea.Com Stadium. (KO 3pm) His hamstring injury is not as bad as it could be which is a relief, but he won’t be fit for this weekend.  0
 Swans prove they can live with the best in the championship 21st Oct 2023 17:59This game was a clear indicator that Swansea City have not only have turned the corner this season they can live with the very best in this league. An opening goal from Matt Grimes put the Swans ahead and only a ridiculous decision by referee Anthony Backhouse saw the Swans robbed of a potential equaliser. 0

Watched this from my sickbed with a flu-like illness. I thought we were decent in phases, but too often lacked quality in our final pass. Leicester look certain to go up and we can't be too upset. My quibble for what it is worth is that I thought we brought on the wrong subs, and in particular persevered with Jerry Yeates for too long when he was having an off day. | | | |

I think 3-1 flattered them, it was a hugely improved performance against many peoples automatic promotion team
Could and should have scored more and that second goal of theirs was such a crap goal to concede
Still think Duff isn't giving enough playing time to the big Ukrainian guy
All things considered i think it was a good performance |  | | |

The ref give us nothing yet give them loads, what was him walking off with Vardy laughing and joking, what was all about?, it was clear that the Ref was flattered to have been on the same pitch as them and acted accordingly. Appalling [Post edited 21 Oct 2023 18:32]

Enjoyed the game, sometimes you’ve got to concede that you’ve been beaten by the better side.Thought we played some very good football in patches. That late goal in the first half was a killer blow.
Didn’t agree with Lowe being subbed. |  | | |

WE ARE GOING UP.
Jerry hit that in in the first half we would be laughing.
This is the best team in our league 💪!
Burnley were 100x stronger lads we are in the play offs if we keep this up.
Pato has redeemed his self Cullen is another level.
Yeates is starting to show his class
Lowe is the 🐐
Humphreys is gonna play for the England first team!
Patinio needs a few more wins but an upgrade on that wolves loan from last year.
Grimes is showing what I always thaght of him lynch pin and scoring aswell.
Darling is the hard man better with out benny C at the moment.
WE ARE GOING UP! |
Thought Humphreys did a bloody good job on Vardy. | | | |

it was one of the best home games in 3 seasons Leicester still have a Squad with PL quality we played some great football at times too.
Lowe was starting to blow I think Duffmade the right move to keep him for a winnable match Tuesday | |

Totally agree, Lowe and Patterson going off really baffled me, IMO Yates should have been pulled. Although we matched them for most of the game their players were far better than ours and with the chances they created the could/should have scored another three. All in all we put in a decent effort and on another day it would have been enough to beat most teams. I thought Leicester are better than Burnley were last season and will walk this league. |  | | |

Took our two most influential players off when we were pushing for equaliser, crazy decision, I know we've a game Tuesday, but still Paterson and Lowe were pressing and he took them off and then we lost the momentum, that Ref was awful give us nothing and them everything. | |

I thought they were head and shoulders above us, but most of us expected that.
We still played very well, they just had much better players. They should be embarrassed finishing below the likes of Bournemouth and Forest with a team like that. Their #10 was one of the best I’ve seen in the championship and they had Inheanacho and Connor Coady on the bench.
I think we beat Watford Tuesday if we play like we did today. Nothing to be concerned about at all. | | | |

Outplayed for most of the game. Gave them too much respect, stood off and didn't press. Poor game plan by Duff. Gave too much ball away and players caught in possession too often.
I didn't expect anything today, but was disappointed with our play. Onward and upwards | | | |

I agree on the respect thing, but I’m surprised the ref wasn’t on the Leicester team sheet. | |

Some games you can deal with losing, this was one such occasion. The players should take a lot of confidence from that performance. The ref didn't cost us, but didn't give us anything all game, definitely favoured the "big club". Bashir is going to be a big player. |  | | |

Edit ....sorry was not a reply to the post just comment for the thread.
Did Duff save our best forwards for Watford game by taking off Lowe and Paterson, one point today or three on Tuesday?
Did we show them too much respect, hought after a shaky start on our left ended up sorting it out, on the right side didn't think we stop the threat between Cullen, Patino and Darling didn't get their marking right for Dewsbury-Hall who wasn't picked up sufficiently leaving Key with decisions to make, go out on the winger or stay inside giving the winger time to have the ball to feet.
Game swung by fine margins a couple of missing final touches by Leicester, Paterson not slowing down to let the last defender to bring him down, Jerry's strike to catch their goalie high up the pitch, a save by the keeper off Cullen's bar rattling strike? Lowe's shot pushed around the post by a good finger tips save..
Can you really afford to let defenders have time to pick their through passes.
We played well and the third goal for Leicester was inevitable but we look threatening at times but force or dropped back too often all be it against probably the best team in the league. [Post edited 21 Oct 2023 19:57]

Some great individual performances today, but you cannot expect to get anything in the Championship with only 9 outfield players. After 30 minutes you could have replaced Yates with a deckchair. An abysmal half hearted display. Why he came out for the second half is beyond me. Really enjoyed the game and we are looking good for the rest of the season. | | | |
