That is a very interesting point you have made there.
Not getting one yellow against us after committing 5 or 6 fouls was criminal and like you said he thinks he can do that every match.

I thought the replay on Hong Kong now2 looked like a secondary unnatural movement too, but it’ll probably never be seen againThat Barnes boot in Ederson's face looked a bit deliberate. Good job Eddie's hard as nails.
grealish needs to get more involved in the game, are you fucking real.big win that....
good performance all around but B.Silva was outstanding...Walker was also very solid again and Gundogan as well
Dias bar the one lapse when he then had to make an excellent recovery block wslso very good and Ederson was v.sharp as well when he needed to be. Jesus worked his arse off as usual
Grealish needs to get more involved in the game and isnt doing enough to keep Foden/KDB out of the game...The one bit of class was that recovery run in the last few minutes ...the miss right at the end one on one with the keeper....you cannot miss those at the top level and he needs to be adding more inthe big games to justify his place in this team. Sterling was also poor when he came on.
Not many teams will go there and take all 3 pts so a huge win especially against a team who previously we have struggled against.

I thought we were great, but once again a game that was closer than it had any right to be due to our finishing.

I thought it was a good game. Pretty end to end. We had our spells where we dominated but they werent shy in having a go, which is rare from the opposition.
Good 1-0 win that coulda been 4-3
Brendan Rodger's teams are usually good and don't play with a negative mindset.

Can I just say indidi looks like a shoehorn for Fernandinho when he retires. Did very well to break up our play in midfield. Dare I say get him in?

Sorry i meant opposition in general and not Leicester in particularBrendan Rodger's teams are usually good and don't play with a negative mindset.
The flaw in your argument is the assumption that all of our chances would have fallen to that striker
you are spot on ? the assumption of setup and placing and timing that somebody else would be in that place at the same time are million to one.. but you could also say that somebody takes their chance and the percentage is higher in the conversion rates ?
but for me a striker is more than just goals.. its the fear they put into defenders and managers
i remember pep in the city amazon tv show saying to arteta or another coach that the liverpool front 3 scare him.
somebody like kane takes up 2 of the back 4 or 5 just because he is on the pitch
another thing from today is grealish.. they double up on him to ? for that reason alone i would play him right down the middle as the single striker
Just got back…

Can I say having been at the game other than the first 10 of the 2nd half the support today was brilliant. Nice to see it wasn't left in the pub or the concourse
You can say that. The atmosphere in the away end was great and the backing for the team was outstanding, with as you point out just one quiet spell.
Walking away from the ground I heard a Leicester fan comment on how poor their support was today, which made me smile.

Is Bernardo still running?What a player.Excellent 3 points...
At the end he sat down and stayed there for awhile; entitled to be bushed.
