Ipswich 1-1 Leicester: Three players who let the side down or impressed

Leicester City's let downs

However, not every player can be treated with the same blue-tinted glasses. For example, our most creative and impressive midfielder - Facundo Buonanotte - was wasteful with his shooting. This Argentinian wonderkid has been fantastically creative since joining on loan from Brighton & Hove Albion, constantly being the focal point between midfield, wings, and Jamie Vardy. That quality does not alleviate the player of responsibilities.

A player can have all the quality in the world, all the passing ability in the league, but still not show up on the day because they let themselves get carried away in the moment. In this case, three wasteful shots when others were in better positions but Buonanotte had played themselves into a rough space surrounded by compact defensive lines with little other option than to have a go.

Meanwhile, deeper in midfield, I honestly saw very little of Wilfred Ndidi beyond some initially good passages of play. The King Power side was stronger when Boubakary Soumare came on for the Nigerian defensive midfielder. I suppose the issue was more of balance than of individual performance, but the player was completely missing for large portions of the game.

Steve Cooper needs to recognise that what he believes are our strongest players may not in fact be the best in his system. The Frenchman or Oliver Skipp would represent a better balance alongside Harry Winks than the DM-turned-progressive midfielder Ndidi. After all, that role should be taken by someone who can have a shot, can score, and can get assists with skilful passing passages with other players. That is not something the Nigerian excels at unfortunately.
