A BRILLIANT free kick from Ross Wallace gave us a point that Nigel Pearson, Leicester’s manager, felt we didn’t deserve.

I beg to differ.

I felt we throughouly deserved it and despite a severly injury-hit squad we more than competed with the Foxes.

The travelling fans were roaring the team on wonderfully.

They have been truly magnificent this season and have carried the vocal support through from last season.

And what an important ‘12th man’ they were given the current injury list, which makes terrible reading.

The international break could not have come at a better time. But the manager has done a good job in motivating his depleted squad, which will hopefully be looking much healthier for the visit of West Ham United in the next game.

Fingers crossed that Kieran Trippier’s injury isn’t a bad one. The timing of his exit was quite bizarre, given that he is normally the one on free kicks.

But up stepped Wallace to score a magnificent goal.

The drought since Scott Arfield’s goal against Chelsea in the first game ended after 655 minutes, when Michael Kightly scored in the 39th minute.

What a relief that was.

But now we must move on and have the belief that we can continue to score goals.

We have been making chances, we just haven’t been taking them.

But as the players know we must get points on the table and taking our chances will be key.

I can’t wait for Danny Ings to return to full fitness because I feel that the floodgates can open with him alongside Lukas Jutkiewicz.

The Juke had plenty of opportunities on Saturday, and I’m sure when he does eventually break his Burnley duck his confidence will soar.

The Clarets will reap the benefits on the back of going to Leicester and getting a great point, earned with tenacity displayed from the start.

The result and performance were all the more impressive considering the character the Clarets showed to come back from the hammering at West Bromwich Albion.

We’ve proved we are capable of scoring goals and hopefully we can take that forward and grow, and not dwell on what has gone on in the past.
