Agree. A replay where Derby are pretty much forced to put out a full strength side is good news for everyone in the top six.

I love the FA cup but I think Schteve needs his bumps felt for not rotating his key players. The Derby Way.
My paranoia has no bounds.
And they need to be up for Newcastle in 2 games, so I redact my ebulliance.

I would guess Will Hughes will be out for that now with a hamstring

Really good cup tie I thought. Will Hughes going off just swung the pendulum back in Leicester's favour and the one time Demarai Gray put a decent cross in all evening, Wes Morgan headed it home. They had chances to win it at the end.
Leicester shouldn't mind a replay. They got out of jail and if they can win the replay, they could go a long way in the competition and it could spark their season into life.

Pundit discussion on resting your best players for cup games. Cue Savage...."I was never rested". Knowing looks from Shearer and Linaker.

Fair enough, they didn't do enough for the THREE points did they ?

I agree that a replay could frustrate Derby's promotion push, but if I was a Leicester fan I'd be worried, they are losing far too many games, and sinking lower and lower in the table.
Will very soon be embroiled in a relegation scrap in my opinion.

That's why I think staying in the cup will help them. They need a spark and I think a cup run will help boost confidence.
They are perilously close to getting dragged into the relegation scrap, although the one thing that helps them is that neither Sunderland nor Palace look like buying a win at the moment and Hull, despite their League Cup win last night, are down to the bare bones.

It would be great if Derby beat Newcastle.

Both fielded pretty strong teams, so taking it seriously then.
Hughes is a player i would seriously look at and Tom Ince if we went up.

Tom Ince is the most overrated player in the whole of the championship
