    What a twat you really are! You just concentrate on getting out of the Championship. I would rather get stuffed by a stunning Arsenal side than a crap Fulham side like your bunch of girls did!

    He's started a thread on their board to try and get them to swamp our board and take the piss, unfortunately his fellow QPR fans have responded with positive comments about Leicester. Most of them are decent posters so I've thanked for for not listening to this tool

    ...not surprising you went back tothe BBC report - :) it's in your nature .. but in context that was a newly promoted team battling for a draw ...that game did not get prime viewing on MOD and the pundits did not refer to the 'breath taking ' football from both sides ...if you are happy with the sterile dross we had at times last season then fine ...each to his own. .. personally I much prefer losing the odd game like yesterday and playing with the attacking flair we have ..and that is all.

    Arsenal were awful last season at the KP and yesterday they were brilliant. It's that simple.

    Some great football played by Leicester yesterday and shows that you are not in top 6 by chance. We could quite easily have been blown out of the water in the first half, but fortunately our better side turned up to play.

    Vardy the white Henry? The guy is so cool & confident in front of the goal - a pleasure to watch even when he is sticking them in against my own team.

    Good luck for the rest of the season :)

    Thanks for the kind comments. Arsenal were a different class yesterday and would have beaten anyone on that performance.You looked like you could score every time you went forward.
    At the start of the season, I predicted you to win the league...I wonder if that may come true if you perform like that :)

    Like I said Ranieri has got a lot more tactical changes correct so far than he has wrong.
    That's why he is the manager and we are not.
    No manager gets even call correct. Just happy to have a manager that has a plan a,b and c as proven in other games this season.
    He's better off staying with us right now regardless of how he performs against the best. He would be a bench warmer for the top teams

    I think we still played quite well yesterday. The reason Arsenal got 5 was Ranieri had a choice of chasing the game and trying to get back into it or sitting back and accepting defeat. He choose to bring on Ulloa and Kramaric so its clear to see what he choose to do

    I thought Vardy and Drinkwater was superb. Drinkwater has stepped into Cambiasso's boots superbly and Vardy has kicked on from last year

    It took Vardy a year in the championship to settle and its taken him nearly a year in the Premier League to settle but now he really is Premier League class

    2 great finishes make him the leagues top scorer

    It's in my nature to use evidence to back up my point rather than launch a personal attack on someone without any (ie the Pearson rose-tinted nonsense you came out with)? OK, I know I'm happy with that.

    I am happier when we draw than when we get thumped, absolutely. Only a neutral would think otherwise. Or someone with a fixed agenda.

    He did that AFTER making a negative move though. By the time Ulloa came on it was already game over.

    Is it that simple? Or did we play a role in making Arsenal look ordinary (twice) last season and look good yesterday? They've hardly been in majestic form this season so far.

    If we keep defending like we did yesterday, they won't be the last side to look brilliant against us this season.

    Everyone that watched the game - from MountainFox here on the board, to my Arsenal supporting brother-in-law who went to the game (then gloated about it while drinking my beer) and the pundits on MoTD - say that this is Arsenals best performance for a number of years.

    We did have a role by having two slow CBs in a high line - reasoning being that they should cut the room the forwards have and be experienced to play offside against a much faster Arsenal forward line but obviously didn't work. Our high pressing attacking game didn't really work against probably the best technical team in the Premier League. Our finishing didn't help either - if Vardy had scored from his header then Walcott wouldn't have scored Arsenal's first. Also if the ref gave the fouls against Okazaki and/or Vardy then Arsenal wouldn't have had their 2nd.

    Oh well, it was worth a shot I suppose - positives were that it did work for 18 minutes and hopefully will cause any future oppositions to be overconfident. Vardy scared the crap out of the opposition whenever he had the ball and Drinkwater did brilliantly getting the ball to him.

    Jeez cheer up Gangsta. We are playing our best football in years, have our strongest most talented squad in years, have lost just once in our first 7 games this season and God know how long from last season,
    Yes the defense needs addressing and will be but cmon mate, no need to be such a Debbie downer. We are doing GREAT!!! Im loving being a city fan these days. Very happy.

    Ooh we are sensitive aren't we? ... personal attack <laugh> ... and is the rose tinted comment really unjustified? ... so far this season you have 'suggested' that any positives are an inadvertent ongoing effect of the former regime ... not therefore that surprising that soon as we have a set back it is then all down to Ranierii etc ...

    ... and are you inferring that I'm a neutral ... isn't that a personal insult? oh my <doh> ... perhaps I'll need therapy ...

    I have no agenda other than supporting my team through thick and thin ... that includes changes in management ...

    ... real neutrals have popped on to let us know what they think .... and they are far more positive about Ranieri than you have ever been ...
