Can someone at the club get him an ancestory test for Christmas? Hopefully some Welsh roots in him.

But he doesn’t show his frustration and you don’t see him ever moan or drop his head. He just keeps trying and showing quality on the ball. Can’t remember many better midfielders in my time supporting city. Most would have been better before or after they played for us.

What impressed me about Camarasa today was that for 50 minutes or so things weren't going his way, a couple of stray passes and caught in possession, things not really going his way, although he wasn't playing badly. Here's the big one, the thing that stands out more than his goal in my opinion. He could have easily sat in and thought '**** it' it's not quite happening, we can get a point, but he didn't, he kept going and showed tremendous character and self belief and was in an advanced position in the final minute-Absolutely brilliant to see that kind of attitude. Special mention for Arter, he was fantastic today, in my opinion his best game for us.
5 minutes before the goal we could sense we had a chance and he came to take a corner in front of us. The reception he got was tumultuous- must have made him feel 10 feet tall.
If nothing else this year with this and Hollet’s against Wolverhampton that’s surely two shoe ins for the final countdown of goals of the season
Yup, fair point. Although he did get caught a couple of times today when he maybe thought that he had more time on the ball, although the likelihood is that he didn't have an option. Arter and Gunnar were great today. We pressed them in the second half, something I've been saying that we should be doing, Leicester weren't as quick on the ball as Watford, West Ham and United and it gave us a chance to win the ball back, which we did very well during the game.
That's my point, in an advanced position, looking for a winner when a point would've been great. I've been saying that we should press teams away from home for ages and we really did that today, maybe Leicester were perfect opponents, but it worked. Our midfield was on top today.
As we move into the second half of the season Neil will have the benefit of hindsight (and a video of the first game) to help with how to approach the opposition.
Your point on pressing is accurate (although blindingly obvious to fans desperate to see an improvement). I was confident we’d get at least a draw today after seeing how we played against them at home and also how we did at Palace.
Neil’s a crafty old fox and after playing everyone once he’ll have a plan for each of the return fixtures.
Great season no matter what happens from here. We’ve blown away expectations
I don't know if it's been mentioned elsewhere, but someone on the Leicester board said that that was the best goal celebration he's seen in the 15 years they've been at the new stadium.
Had to watch that goal again.....just checking my eyes did not deceive me. One that will stick long in the memory and goes some way to making up for the previous away defeats at West Ham and Watford. A brilliant day out.
