John Ruddy: Concedes one in loss
Ruddy made two saves while conceding once in Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Leicester City.
Analysis:
Utilizing a five-man back line, Ruddy and the Norwich defense held strong for nearly the entire match, smartly parrying a Jamie Vardy shot away and another from Marc Albrighton. However, it was the substitute Leonardo Ulloa who managed to push the only goal of the match past Ruddy on a night when they surely deserved a point. After a lengthy spell outside the starting XI, a five-match losing streak saw him returned to the starting lineup. While they may have lost, Ruddy likely played well enough to retain his spot in the starting XI.
