Post Match Leicester 4 Southampton 1

[Jeff]

Maddison, Vardy and Perez (2) got the goals.

We finish eighth.

 

[glyn]

So good you started two threads.

 

[fitz]

Not the moist squid that we mostly expected.

 

[Micky]

Good finish that. Fair play. 8th is a reasonable season considering the injuries and weight of games on the players.

 

[Orifice]

Have we been as high as 8th this season?

 

[londonfox]

That Ayoze fella looks really good.

 

[Billyjof]

Respectable finish, if only we’d not dropped points against Spurs and Everton.

 

[Jeff]

Have we been as high as 8th this season?

Yes. We were 8th after three games.

 

[glyn]

Maddison 18 v Vardy 17, so second year in a row Vardy finishes top PL goalscorer but not the overall top scorer.

But for Vardy to get 15 in the PL given the matches he’s missed is incredible.

 

[doolochfox]

I must tip my hat to Perez. His 2nd was very good. His first goal was sublime. He is an exceptionally technical ball player.

 

[glyn]

Barnes and Maddison assists numbers have had some inflation last few matches, but still good to see them both so high up. Especially after Harvey’s second half of the season.

I think Son actually shades Vardy for being clinical.

Vardy and Salah had the best goals per minute record.

For minutes per goal though… that isn’t true is it?

How about xG? @Brown Nose ?

Cripes it’s exactly the same. Intriguing.

Chasing after that European JPT has cost us 6th and playing Europa League next season.

Chasing after that European JPT has cost us 6th and playing Europa League next season.

And saved our squad for next season. I think another season in the Europa would have destroyed us. We almost need a season without to reset and rebuild.

 

[Weeble]

All things considered, I'm happy. Time to reset and move on now.

Damn us for trying to win a European trophy and chasing another route into EL.

however you are also right, the last few performances have shown what we could have done against Everton/Newcastle if we hadn’t been chopping and changing. But me, I’m happy we gave it a go.
