Premier League Match Day #17
Kramaric, 10-Men Foxes Blow Baggies Around
(15) West Brom 2 – 4 Leicester (14)
Goals:
West Brom: Sessegnon (26, 51) Foxes: Huth (20), Schlupp (28), Kramaric (pen 64, 82)
Shots/On Target: West Brom 14/7, Foxes 17/11
Possession: Foxes 53%
Cautions: West Brom: Baird (63), Mulumbu (88) Foxes: Drinkwater (22), De Laet (red 54), Huth (58)
Man of the Match: AMC Stephane Sessegnon 8.8

Form: Schmeichel 6.8, Simpson 7.0, Moore 7.2, Huth 8.3, Vardy (sub 54), King 6.8, Drinkwater 8.7, Knockaert 7.4, De Laet (red 54) 5.7, Schlupp 8.3, Kramaric 8.6, Morgan (on 54) 6.9

Notes:
Drinkwater was a magician in midfield, pulling the strings and Foxes out of hats for two assists. Schlupp has grown increasingly comfortable with the advanced left wing role and is improving all the time. Kramaric finally breaks his goose since I've taken over the club and converts a nice penalty and another effort late on to seal the win. Kramaric had gone 18 matches without a goal. This was his 19th for the club. Despite having ten men, we bullied West Brom around the park. Excellent win as we move into a difficult holiday period.

Suspension News
DL Ritchie De Laet has been suspended for two matches following his red card and sending off against West Brom.

DC Robert Huth has picked up an automatic one match suspension after collecting his fifth yellow card.

Liverpool: Sterling (11), Sturridge (20), Balotelli (62)
Shots/On Target: Foxes 17/12, Liverpool 21/11

Notes:
Second best throughout. We had some bright spots early on and again when they were in cruise control, but we couldn't even get a consolation goal. Poor performance all around. Liverpool reminds us how far we have to go to be elite.

An excellent point. Wood plays wonderfully as a fill-in for tired legs with a brace. He's got as many goals as Kramaric in much less time.
