Sunderland went for it and that made it a contest.

Their keeper had a stonker with a handful of very good saves.

Overall, I’m happy and relieved we won.

I think that’s 11?

 

[Graz]

I think that’s 11?

It's definitely 8.

 

[camberwell fox]

It's definitely 8.

Oh. ****struck, read it wrong.

 

[bocadillo]

Turned it off with 10 minutes to go. [...] feared I might have a heart attack.

Did exactly the same for same reason. Far too tense.

****ing bottlers! What you like?

 

[bocadillo]

His yellow card count is going to cause us more problems before Christmas.

Corrected that for you

 

[Jenks]

We were extremely lucky to win that and keep a clean sheet, saved only by their inability to take a chance.

They played really well, better than we were prepared for probably.

The referee was ****ing shocking. Missed a pen for both teams, or rather missed one for them and bottled giving us one/doesn’t understand the rules. The rest of the time he let them get away constant shirt pulling and holding.

Looking at the QPR game I imagine we will heavily rotate with Leeds in mind.

Whatever the performance though it’s an absolutely ludicrous points haul, these games win you titles and promotions.

You just saved me 15 minutes of trying to write the same thing with 7 pints in me. Cheers Ted, wot you said

Easily the best side we’ve played. Keeper was absolutely the tits, man of the match. Fair ****s to them coming here and showing zero respect.

 

[homer]

I thought that was a good challenging game.


Miserable ****s

Me too - top ****ing banana that was. Nice to see a team come and have a ****ing go. I ****ing loved it

Apart from Iheanacho we were decent enough and could (maybe should) have had three or four goals - that first Casadei one was an absolute ****ing gimme

Ref was a total ****. Good job really, cos they had a stonewall pen.

****ing hell, this season is the absolute tits

 

[homer]

Big shout out for that Ricardo yellow card.

About ****ing time we did shit like that

 

[Jenks]

Worst ****ing ref this season, but worse for them thank ****

Yeah was a good watch. I won't complain if the next few are back to being a piece of piss though.

Very Man City, we did a couple of those tonight

Weird. That highlight reel gave the impression Leicester were dominant throughout. However I’d suggest Sunderland we’re far more dominant second half but just couldn’t finish

Big chances....

As we missed all 3. Which ones were big chances? David Cassidy and Ian Nachos had at least 2 each that I'd have said were a big chance. Justin's unchallenged header from close range would seem a good chance too but obviously wasn't one of the 3 as he scored.

 

[Brown Nose]

Well that was comfortably the most enjoyable game I've seen this season.

Two teams having a right go at each other.

I don't agree with the criticism of the ref either. He saw what sort of game it was, and tried to let it run and not blow up for every challenge. That was refreshing.

Individually, Casadei was excellent and finally looks fit and up to the required pace. The criticism of Iheanacho is bizarre. He did great, taking up some very clever positions and was a world class save away from a belting goal.

Hermansen was wobbly on the ball for the first time. He gave up possession several times. Sunderland did a smart job upsetting our smothering passing.
