Objectively, play offs are still much more likely than top 2 and if there is any chance of Downes injury being made worse, we won't want to risk him being potentially ruled out for a longer spell including the play offs, which would be disastrous. So I can understand the caution to be honest. I just don't understand the choice for his replacement!

I just don't get why Martin is so reluctant to play Charles as the Downes replacement when he seems the obvious choice.

I reckon there may be a few changes tonight to get some fresher legs in from the start. Maybe Stuey, Edozie and Rothwell coming in? Will also be interesting to see if Downes continues to start or whether it's felt he needs a rest at some point..

Hopefully Charles will be in squad tonight. Downes will likely need a rest at some point.

Leicester's next 2 games are away to Sunderland and Hull. After 3 defeats on the bounce, they won't be fancying those too much...

Leeds slip up gives us good chance to get a couple of points back. Must win today and get back on track. COYR!!

Commentator still thinks Edozie is on.

Not sure why you have picked on Charles. Thought he has been decent to be honest.

Good half from us, only let down by the finishing. Mara in particular should have had a couple.

Hmmm. Not convinced by that line up at all, especially the midfield where I expected to see at least one of Charles and Aribo with Downes still out. We should be able to do some damage going forward but worried we will be too open in midfield.

Yep, happy with that lineup. Sensible that Charles comes in with Downes out. Good options off the bench if we need them.

We needed to make changes at some point in this run of 4 games I guess. Good options off the bench with Aribo, Stu and of course Fraser if we need it. Shame about Downes though. Hope he has not picked up an injury.

The thing is he is so effective coming off the bench though, I wouldn't personally change it. Keep bringing him on on 60 mins or so

So much for all the optimism!

Thought Lavia was really good on the ball til he went off. Centre backs and JWP also good.
