Lots of Blues fans are in high spirits despite the result at the King Power Stadium.
Well, that’s one way to bring the unbeaten run to an end.
Against a Premier League side, one that’s challenging for Europe on top of that, and we only managed to lose by one goal despite their dominance throughout the game? Let’s be honest, you’d much rather that than a 3-0 at home to West Brom for instance.
Well that was all she wrote when it comes to our F.A Cup adventure for another year as a late Ricardo Pereira goal was enough to break the deadlock and send the Blues out.
Was Pep right to rest Jude for the game tonight?
Yes
No
And despite that setback, Blues fans didn’t seem too disappointed about the display that the team put in, indeed many of them were left applauding them after the game for the effort that the boys put in for the 90 minutes.
There is no need for any negativity on this post. Anyone who saw that game knows we played our socks off there. Gave a good prem team a go and could have nicked a goal! KRO

We wouldn’t advance any further fans unlike Leicester, we only have a 2 day rest! Good performance, can’t knock Blues, we can now concentrate on our League position 🔵⚪️🔵⚪️

Now we just need to see if we can take this on and maintain that unbeaten league run for just a little bit longer.
An excellent performance, the guys should be truly proud of themselves! Absolutely no disgrace going out away to a team 3rd in the Premier League and holding them until 82 minutes too. Resting Jude was a good idea, we’ve got 3 out of 4 must win games coming up and all at home, just a great shame we’ve lost Bela though – hopefully Crowley can seize the opportunity. KRO!
