    Very harsh indeed.

    Foxes didn't deserve the red card. That was the turning point.

    I would have said if the defender has committed a couple of fouls, the second bookable could have been a first bookable offense but for me a SECOND bookable needs to be more serious than a tug.

    you guys were really unlucky, once fatkinson gave simpson the red, there was only 1 winner in it really.

    wasilevski should hang his head in shame for that challenge, what an eejit. game was secure at that point

    kante is unbelievable

    Ref was awful - really weak willed and was completely manipulated by the fans and players.

    Still can't put the blame all on him - we had a big hand in the loss as well.

    I din't expect us to win but to come so close is heartbreaking.

    Decisions aside, Arsenal should have took advantage long before they did, they were generally toothless and definitely don't look title contenders to me. Cheating scummy southerners though

    ..gutting... was sitting in North bank with the goons ..right on top of both Simpson yellows..both harsh ..ref definitely swayed by home fans baying ..couldn't see whether Mahrez should have had a pen from where I was ..but if it wasn't surely the ref should have booked him? ..amazing defensive resistance until giving away the most stupid of free kicks .
    keep the faith ..

    Said the same about mahrez it was never a penalty , the ref either gives it or books him for diving he did neither

    Losing away to Arsenal doesnt define our season

    Arsenal are away to Man U next. If Man U get their act together and we beat Norwich were 5 points clear of them again

    .. indeed .. that was actually a brilliant defensive display until the last seconds ..the ref spoiled what was an intriguing contest ..up to the sending off we arguably looked the more likely to get the next goal ...keep the faith :)

    While today was very disappointing loosing in the 5th minute of 4 added on, it is still 6 points from 3 very tricky February fixtures. Plenty of twists and turns still to come.

    Just got in.

    Have to say that the majority of Arsenal fans really are laughable. They hounded the referee and his officials for every single decision and ultimately the man in yellow bottled it.

    Again... Kante is, unquestionbly, world class. Our best player by a distance.
