Are you actually serious?? Did they both beat us?? Think you will find they did hence they were better than us. Take your blue tinted specs off.

I think you're confusing your 'were' with your 'are'.

Leicester 'were' better than us today, they 'are' not better than us overall.

Confidence is shot. Mommentum is with Spuds and the Dippers. The reason they are top is they`ve been winning when playing poorly. They are now hitting form and battering opponents. Possibly the worst time of the year to drop off as there`s little time to regroup.
We need a win, any sort of win at Soton or we`ll be looking over our shoulders and not at the teams above us. Time for Pep to earn his corn.

Even when Liverpool play poorly or average, you get Pickford flapping the ball to Origi and opposing strikers who cannot hit an open Liverpool goal. Every time we've played poorly we've lost. That's the difference - plus all our best players getting injured.
 
Gundogan is the invisible man. Same v Palace other than his run and headed goal. No idea how this guy is playing in a title winning team. Need better back up than that in holding midfield, we are relying on a 33 year old alone.

Raheem needs David to play the ball for him to do what he's good at - running hard for the ball towards the goal line or through a gap in the middle without any time to hesitate or think about what to do. When he stops, turns and flicks it to the side, you know he's going to lose possession. Sergio just had a bad day by his monumental standards.

Overall, it's as though we've forgotten how to play quick, sharp, hard, low stabbing passes. Instead, we're hitting the ball behind our players, three feet off the ground, curling and spinning and when under pressure, slicing it away. Suddenly, Kevin apart, we can no longer drill a shot.

Leicester did their best to hand the game to us with some woeful balls to our players in their half. We seemed bereft of ideas when we were gifted the ball in those situations.

David's world class covers for the loss of Kevin, but no-one covers for the loss of David. Likewise, without Fernandinho we look so light.

Even last season we'd struggle against sides that put 10 behind the ball until the opening goal opened it up. TOday we got that goal and then conceded almost immediately

WOuld be OK if Mendy was fit, then Delph could play there.

Tell me seriously how a player can make a challenge while keeping there studs on the ground? It's impossible, the ball was won first, and of course a player can't immediately stop after committing a challenge again a physical immposibility, that rule is a fucking joke

So if the rule is a joke then maybe we shouldn`t be blaming the ref ?
 
We were awful, it was a real shithouse performance.
No point in adding anything else

The Leicester player comes from behind Delph and his leg runs into his foot after the ball has gone.

Where do you expect a player to put his foot in those circumstances?

he got sent off because their bench demanded it and the linesman caved.

Joke red card, absolute joke.

Not sure. I’ve seen delph do that tackle a few times now. Think it’s a red.
