Post Match Manchester City 2 Leicester City 5

[M17TT C]

Also first time a Pep team has conceded 5 in one game according to Sky.

 

[lesterboy]

big decision coming in 4-5 weeks time, who out of Ricardo and Canstagne plays left back?

Surely timmy has to keep his place on his performances. Unless he can switch to let back and carry on producing the same there.

 

[Orifice]

Well, I didn't know the score/result until I looked at the title of this thread.

I can't think of what to say. Just cant think of the words. I'm just sat here with a laughing smiling face. Ha Ha Ha Ha.

Vardy like a fine wine, getting better with age. Some performance that.

 

[tedfoxxx]

Special mention to Tedrosfox too - excellent performance in going out for a walk!

Put my big scarf on and got all nice and autumny. Did I miss much?

 

[Orifice]

This is real. this is actually happening.

we are back to be doing what we did a few years back. No-one can belive it. I can't belive this.

I don't buy this bollocks about us being shit in the first half. They cut through our midfield a bit too easily but our plan was to defend deep and hit them on the counter. It worked. It wasn't 'gutless', it was a calculated risk. I have been critical of Rodgers, but he got it completely right today. We defended very, very well after the goal and for the rest of the game. I thought Justin was very good despite the usual suspects panning him within the first few minutes and Tielemans was, once again, excellent. Barnes is a thorn is the side of most opposition and Castagne is a buy of epic proportions (from our recruitment team who the same old folk keep telling us we should hate because they're shit). Mendy is surprising me with how much better he is looking. He still has has his faults but he looks a different player to the one we have seen previously. Maddison was also excellent when he came on.

But Vardy. Jamie, ****ing Vardy. What more is there to say about him? I have run out of superlatives. He is simply awesome.

Vardy moves like Jagger

Justin struggles in the air against strong forwards who play off his shoulder. Against the likes of Marhez he did brilliantly today. Nothing against any of the players but for me Amartey was outstanding considering this was his first premiership game in nearly 2 years. Credit to him today.

 

[bocadillo]

I don't know who that Manchester no 26 was; I think he got their first goal. If he improves his game just a little bit, he could be good enough to play for City.

 

[Real Sharapova]

Castagne what a player! MOM for me

Oh, and also it seems like our manager does know what he is doing. Tip of the hat to him!

If Carlsberg did starts to the season . . .

Only one word to some up this pre match shout:

Match Thread - Manchester City v Leicester

There are 38 players named in the goal scorer market for this match. The 38th name is Amartey. Got to have a cheeky little bet on that. Number 37 is Julian Joachim.

Nice!

 

[Miles Away]

Tell you what. That goal from Riyad? ****ing hell.

 

[FOX Franks]

Just leave this here

Good, but still not as good as

But it's not far off is it? What a result. Although - not as good as the 3-1 in THAT season. That was just immense

 

[popillius]

Tell you what. That goal from Riyad? ****ing hell.

Almost as good as Maddison's but not as good as Vardy's. Other than that, he didn't trouble Justin who had him in his pocket for the most part.

Justin for me started off shakey in his 1st few city games but he absolutely nailed it today and deserves his chance at becoming the 1st choice left back, Ricardo when he comes back could play in front of Castagne what a right side that would be.
Pep was completely out witted today Mank city were clueless so top marks to Rodgers.

Not sure they were outwitted, they just have a whole back four who can’t defend for shit when teams have a go at them

 

[TommyK]

Couldn’t agree more. I can’t see any weaknesses in his game. A terrific acquisition.

Just putting this out there.....he's better than Richardo

Looking more and more like step toe too
