Vardy top goal scorer in the league?
We basically played an open game against Arsenal. Always likely to lose when you try and "outplay" but I don't mind us having a go.
5-2 now.
I am not sure if Ranieri's approach was brave or stupid. We were never going to contain Arsenal with such a attacking approach. Vardy and Drinkwater the best for us today.
I can only go on the Beeb reportage and you chaps, but it sounds like a harsh scoreline and, we would be far worse off if we had tried to park the proverbial bus. We don't have the personnel for such a strategy and would, almost certainly, have lost and might have had to deal with sending offs and suspensions.
Feel gutted tonight but, in the cold light of day, we've had a great start, been part of a great game and the important thing now is not to let this deflect us from going all out next week...
Scoreline a little harsh on us but Arsenal probably played the best they have all season today and showed why they are a top 4 side.
No complaints from me, just beaten by a better team.
