Match Thread Leicester v Burnley

How are we playing?

We look pretty good going forward. Ndidi giving the ball away every chance he gets but we are not playing not too badly at all. Burnley look very good going forward and are causing us a lot of problems.

Mind you, I am totally distracted by the unbelievable brightness of Mahrez's blonde hair do so I may be talking rubbish. He looks like a 60 watt bulb.

Fantastic challenge from Maguire but it looks like Brady has broken his leg in the aftermath.

The injury really taken the sting out from Burnley. We just need to stop the wayward passing.

On Sky their saying Harry has been carried off, what **** is going on?

Maguire and Brady went for a 50/50, Brady stretchered off, Maguire still on.

Complete snoozefest


Let's take the one nil and go home

He hasn't. Brady was stretchered off. Looked pretty nasty for him.

Mahrez's blonde hair

I'm pretty sure it's not blonde.

Not the highest quality game is it?! Vardy is too isolated as I thought he might be. Not terrible though, just dull.

Depends on whether he's in his 'Friday night gear'.

Of course, I meant 'blond'!

 

[Rock Fox]

we got the early goal - but as usual we've failed to push on and its been nearly all Burnley for the last 30 minutes - City need to step up a gear in the second half

Looks to me like Vardy will be very isolated again. I guess only time will tell but without Okazaki I'm struggling to see how Vardy will have enough to feed on. It also depends on which Gray decides to turn up today.

It wasn't broken, I wouldn't have attempted to fix it.

It's called actually managing and adapting to the opposition, something the last bloke couldn't dream of.

That was a horrible tackle by Brady. Definitely deserving of a yellow, possibly a red.

Thanks.

Yeah. Ranieri was a master of adapting when we won the league. Oh, hang on....

Why must you be so over sensitive about any slight question of Puel? Stop being such a snowflake. It was an opinion and written as such, not a direct criticism of the manager.

If you really want to assess it so far, Vardy has been too isolated and in truth, we've looked a shade of the team we were against Spurs albeit that the opposition is very different. Let's see how the second half progresses shall we, then perhaps we'll be able to make a more informed judgement.

2.10am saw we were leading so tuned in some 50 mins later and half time really wish I hadn't.

Dirty bastards Burnley.

Started second half really well. Should be two up.

Chilwell has been excellent.

Yes and yes.

Unlucky Gray hit the post.

No point giving us corners, we just give straight back to their keeper.
