Listen closely - it's the ugly sound of us scraping past the bottom team for a hard-bitten three points.
Yes, we're back in fourth for the time being, but being ground under the heels of a team we should be beating handily is no way to make progress.
Poor form over the last couple of games - we need to put it behind us and get some momentum.
Hear that?

Yes very disappointing performance. This was a great opportunity to get some confidence back with a dominat win. But we looked awful, especially in second half. Don't understand why we played like that, we seem to just decide to let Leicester back in. Doesn't feel like much of a step in the right direction from the Spurs game.
But we won and thats the important thing! Need a much better performance in the next game, that's for sure!

All the top teams struggle against small teams sometimes, that's the PL.. if this was Chelsea people would say playing bad and winning is the sign of Champions

What I hear is that sweet sweet sound of 3 points getting added to the tally.
3 points that take us back into the top 4 (even if it is only temporary)

Yeah but we aren't chelsea and we aren't top. We often play like that and lose. We gave them a lot of chances. I Wouldn't have minded it being 2-1 and poor performance, had they scored with only chance, and we stopped them getting anymore chances. But on another night they could have easily got a few goals. That's the worrying thing.
But 3 points is obviously the important factor. But we might not get away with playing like that again. Have to improve defensively, especially.
