Wilfred Ndidi 6: Ndidi was our only good defender today and he was playing in the midfield. He was getting clearances the whole game and was winning his aerial duels. He wasn’t giving up the ball a lot in the midfield which is unusual for him.

Youri Tielemans 5: Was pretty much out there just doing cardio. Wasn’t good today but wasn’t bad either. He clearly wants a move away from the club which is understandable at this rate.

Harvey Barnes 5: Was also nonexistent this whole game. He’s had the chance to prove himself without James Maddison yet he hasn’t. Just tanking his transfer value at this rate. He played LWB for a bit which was a dumb idea.

Marc Albrighton 4: Was bad the whole game. Outside of crossing the ball, he is useless at this sport. Gave up the ball many times on defense. He was dusted by Joelinton which lead to the second goal of the game.

Patson Daka 4: Passing up that open of a shot is inexcusable. That goal could have gotten us back into the game but, he really screwed us over. Definitely led to him being subbed out of the game.

Jamie Vardy 3: What an absolute waste of a substitution Two open chances in back-to-back minutes and he sent them both wide. I’m really worried that the Leicester City legend is washed. I’m going to hope for the best but, he is not making it easy.
