No sour grapes from me. We have done it many a time under Pulis. Good defensive performance, bit of luck. Happy with the way we performed. Continue like that and we will be fine.

Yeah no real complaints from me.
Some good defending, textbook smash and grab.
Thought Cambiasso changed the game somewhat.
On a negative (for Leicester) I thought your fans were terrible.

Good three points for them. Bit of a cup final for their support. A win away at Stoke is surely as good as it gets for them.
Can't knock them for their performance. Defended well, took their chance, fans must be in dreamland.

Not sure how you can say that. We're only four games into the season, played well for points against Everton and Arsenal, and matched Chelsea for an hour. I always thought today would be hard, and to be honest, I was expecting us to lose.
Stoke were good, especially in the first half, but clearly you lacked a killer touch with the final ball. You had 13 corners, but did nothing with any of them; we had three (I think all in the second half) and two of them caused real jitters for your defenders. You had 24 shots, eight on target, we had four and one on target (that one!) You could argue that Stoke "deserved" to win, but in this game, it's about scoring goals, and that's what we did. Doubtless we will have matches when we will be all over the opposition like a rash, but still lose: and we'll moan about it. But that won't alter the result.
Personally, I don't think we'll struggle to stay up, but time will tell.

I think you'll probably be ok, although to be honest if we'd been 2 up at half time it wouldn't have flattered us. You say we did nothing with the corners, but I seem to remember Crouch and Shawcross both having a couple of free headers which they mucked up. Another day we'll score those. As you say, it's about taking your chances. Was surprised by De Laet, he looked half decent. Who'd have thought?

I haven't seen your other games so can only comment on today and you are one of the worst teams to visit the Brit since we got promotion ourselves but you've left with 3 very indeserved points so fair play to you. Will you go down? Its too early in the season to say but on that performance you will definitely be struggling at the wrong end of the table come the end of the season. Your lads were resilient and brave though so like us in our first season, you have as good a chance as anyone of staying up.

I think I said in another thread a couple of days ago - they're very similar managers in a lot of respects! That being said, Pearson made the mistake of starting with the two wrong midfielders, and we almost paid the price for it.

They will be relegated come may. Unbeaten by Arsenal and Everton, a win at Stoke, and a 2 - 0 defeat to Chelsea at Stamford bridge - playing with only one central midfielder for 30 minutes. We're not really on course for relegation if I'm honest. Yes, that was a poor performance - but that has been our poorest performance this season, and we came away with a win.

Cambiaso played one great ball but don't think he will be mobile enough for the PL, but we'll see.

I don't agree. Hammond played well (again) and he was Matt Elliott's man of the match (mine was Liam Moore). King did OK as well. I think our strength this season is that we have a lot of excellent midfield players - those two, plus Drinkwater, James and now Cambiasso - and that gives Pearson the option of making telling substitutions, like he did today.
It was a tough old game today, and you could argue that we were lucky to get all three points. But we've got five more points than I thought we would have at this stage of the season, so I am not complaining

Think your team and manager did everything they could have done, the fact we lost was down to our shortcomings. But it is annoying when you lose to a team that has one effort on goal. But I would be happy in your position.

Well on top first half, out thought in the second half would be my summary. Great win for Leicester, we need to start scoring when we are on top.

Why can't I? I can only think of Wolves who were worse than Leicester in our 6 years to date in the Premier League, You improved slightly second half but first half you were abject. I fear for us if we continue to struggle to break down teams as bad as yours.
