Off the back of one of our most dismal seasons in years, the curtain-raiser against relegation favourites Sheffield Wednesday felt like a potential banana skin, and that kind of expectation weighs heavy on the shoulders of some. Being 1-0 down at half-time felt very ominous.
Leicester have become the pantomime villains of late on the football stage, and new boss, Marti Cifuentes, has some task on his hands to manage the on-field activities amid the deafening noise off it.
We showed glimpses of our potential after a poor first half, and it was really encouraging to see Cifuentes change it at half-time (rather than the orthodox 60 minutes of his predecessors) with the introduction of Harry Winks, who showed exactly why he was such a lynchpin in the Enzo Maresca era.
