Thank me too - I saw a single magpie today while walking the dog and remembered to salute it. #properscience
I don't touch the stuff actually which is why I grew up to only be good enough to play for Accrington Stanley.
Didn't lose = defended well. Tbh, I don't take a lot of notice of what's said in post-match interviews.
Maybe it is just me, but I find Leicester to be a nasty, sneaky team. Lots of niggly fouls, especially when teams break against them, lots of diving to get fouls, and generally similar to Wimbledon when they were in the top flight. Also hope we do not have Taylor for the Utd game, he is eligible apparently as he lives in Manchester, and Utd are based in Salford!!!
Penalty wasn't a penalty. Migs made contact with ball. (If slight). Vardy ran onto Migs leg after he got to the ball. Can definitely wasn't a handball. The rule is "deliberate hand ball". Ball to hand is not illegal. Even though it's not the rule, what the referees usually use as a rule of thumb is , is the hand away from the body. Not only was Can's arms close to the body, he was holding them behind himself... That's about as far from handball as you can get. I'm normally the first one to hold my hand up and say "we were in the wrong" when we are... Neither of those incidents were a penalty.
A well deserved victory that, the margin should have been wider but for that appalling ref giving Leicester the opportunity to get back in the game on half time. I don't think that's a pen. either but hey Thought Hendo was decent throughout and fully deserved his goal, a real calming influence in a hectic midfield scrap. And a shout for Mign for doing his homework on Vardy's pens. and having the courage to stand up and make a strong save. On the downside.........Lovren (yeah I know).............and Can driving me nuts giving away possession time and again. 3 points in the bag, pretty pleased overall
well there is nothing like a comfortable away win. Good points 1.We won 2.We won 3.Vardy got what he deserved 4. Sturridge looked bright. thats about it PS Can is no better than Hendo at being the holding CM - never mind today just look at Arfield running off him last weekend
