    Lesson for young James Justin (who has been superb) .. stay with your man ... whole defence got sucked in thinking Penandez had lost it ...

    Think I’d feel more confident ahead of the second half if it was at Old Trafford given both teams are so much better away from home! I would take this all day long for FT and would be an excellent point. Man Utd have so many game changers even on the bench though that I suspect they spawn the win somehow but we are making a good go of it.

    Lindelof at RB ffs, with Dan James in front. <laugh>

    Tuanzebe is on the bench!

    If you lot are just patient in your attack you’ll pick us off easily. We look flat as hell today. Ole won’t change anything until we are behind.

    I've seen it mate, it is state of the art without a doubt. Same architects as the Liverpool one which is why they are similar in design. I also think these are the same architects that designed the new spuds stadium.

    Yeh something not lost on Leicester as they've been attacking all game down our right side.

    James' first touch really is piss poor. Always seems to be the case. Someone needs to work on that.

    He just needs to leave, he’ll never be good enough.

    Trouble is we can only make 3 subs and we need at least 4.

    That’s just it though, by your own observations, you’ve been flat but still had those great headed chances through Rashford and Fernandes. Can’t see you not getting a couple more so we need to do more in the final third. Ricardo and Soyuncu back for us will be huge.

    Thought you were doing ok until the equaliser. Nullified Vardy and Leicester weren’t looking like scoring. Even James looked decent at times despite only being picked as a Christmas present from Ole.

    Cavani will come on and win it anyway.

    Agree, it's been a lacklustre performance from about 4/5 players. Bruno not having a great game at all.

    Martial, Fred, James have been poor and then as you say, Tuanzebe needs to come on at RB.

    Cavani and Pogba need to come on. McTominay looks off the pace.

    He’ll bring Fernandes off for Telles though.

    Bit of a difference in quality on the 2 benches ...but our first XI is pretty damn fine ... and if we can get Soyuncu and Pereira back fully fit we are capable of giving anyone a game ... do need another world class striker mind ...

    Tielemans has looked the best midfielder on show in that first half ... and not even with my normal intentional bias <laugh>

    Ole spent most of half time teaching him to ride his new bike which won’t have helped.
