Post Match Leicester 1 Manchester United 1

[Jeff]

Vardy got his record breaking goal.

 

[MerseyFox]

Well done Vardy. Good game. Strange that I am disappointed not to beat Manchester Utd.

Vardy's face when that nearly chance for Ulloa didn't come off......****ing gutted that we only drew with Man Utd!

11 to go

 

[Jeff]

Good game.

Was it?

I thought it was poor. Manchester United stopped us from playing our usual game, but they never looked much of a threat.

 

[fitz]

They had more of the ball but we made better chances I think. Fair result but I'm disappointed we didn't take it. Makes me proud that I'm disappointed being joint top and drawing against them.

Well...I guess it says a lot that I'm disappointed with a point against Utd.Just underlines where we're missing something & which might need to be addressed in January.Defense not up to the mark compared to the midfield & forwards.Half decent defending from that corner & we win that game.

Yep. Brilliant isn't it?

Well done Smalling, without him we'd have done them. Eleven points to go.

 

[fitz]

I think they were probably happier with the result than us. I know it's their style to have loads of the ball but be boring as **** but we seemed more bothered by not winning.

 

[Cate Fox]

I think Kasper is the problem rather than the defence... but happy with a point (I think)

 

[Billyjof]

Would have taken that result at the start of today. I predicted to a UTD supporting colleague 1-1 with Vardy scoring.

We weren't great but had our chances and a bit gutted to concede so softly.

It helps build confidence we deserve to be where we are, matching and hopefully beating the top teams in the league.

Agree with all but defence, we did well defending over the 90 but one bit of poor judgement by a striker (and perhaps the keeper) cost us 2 points against Man U. I can live with that for now. If Ranieri gets us relegated now he's got to be paraded round the clock tower dressed as a gimp clown and flogged.

He should definitely be dominating the box from that corner,But then again the mismatch in the marking contributed too.Problems in both areas.Pisses me off really as Kasper's old man was probably the most dominant 6 yard box keeper I've ever seen.Did you learn nothing boy??

My point is that Utd offered pretty much **** all threat from open play so to concede sloppily from a set piece is infuriating.Especially as it's become a theme.That lack of judgement is exactly the problem & needs sorting.If we're to kick on to the next level as a team permanently we need to be not doing stuff like that.I'll be happy enough if it happens next season though to be fair.Give CR the chance to adjust his options.

As I've said elsewhere,Vardy has had the record for a while now.Everyone knows at least 4 of RVN's were offside.

Our defending from open play has improved considerably. A keeper to at least compete with Kasper and a striker would be my priorities over the next two transfer windows. In an ideal world i'd love to sign Ighalo from Watford but that wouldn't be easy.

Over two seasons too. If you're allowed to carry goals from previous seasons over many records would be different.

I actually agree with most of this. The goal we conceded really rubbed me the wrong way.

Still, great goal, Vardy record.

wonderully taken goal from Vardy in the first half - don't know what happened to us in the second half - we just never got going
Agree with other posters - slightly deflated that we couldn't hang on to the top spot - perhaps when we play Man City it might be first vs second again!
