    Very good performance from such a seriously depleted side. We were on it from the beginning and Leicester never got a look in.
    Great for Bobby to get a goal - after missing out by a centimetre earlier I thought it was going to be another of those days for him. I'd also like to say that Milner - whose inclusion had some throwing their arms up in despair earlier - was very solid, and his forward passing was excellent.

    Very good performance that. Apart from 10 mins halfway through second half we dominated.

    Milner was brilliant at RB in first half. His passing was great. Thought jones was really good, kept the ball wall and just looks positive when he gets it. First thought it can I or the ball go forward with this.

    Back 4 in generally were all very good.

    Mane was outstanding and deserved a goal. That forfana has been getting brilliant reviews this season but he looked a league 1 player today. He just couldn’t cope with mane but then not many can when he’s on form.

    Thought Gini again was great. Didn’t need to do anything fancy but as the experienced man in midfield just kept it simple, mopped up nicely and kept the ball under pressure.

    With TAA hends Salah and Thiago back shortly then should be in a good position.

    I think we may have thought that on seeing the team sheet rogers would have altered his tactics to suit, looked at our weaknesses and thought up ways to exploit them.

    Instead well he came up with trying to exploit milner at right back and beating the press by hoofing the ball long.

    Hes had some good results this season, playing on the counter but if fans of a big team thing he's the answer youve only got to look at today to see he flatters to decieve.

    You look at the two sides and our midfield shouldn't have got a touch, fed it into the channels for vardy and controlled the fame. Very hard to do that when your keeper is punting it over your head though.

    Played well tonight, but Leicester were scared of us from the off. Nice to see Bobby score, and Jones grew into the game. Mane worked hard, but nothing came off for him tonight, but still 3 points<party><party><party><party>

    When we lost our CBs we kept our 2nd clean sheet of the season

    Lose our midfielders and we'll probably have 95% possession

    Lose our strikers and we'll probably score 10

    Can't beat Klopp

    Also Jota... brilliant signing that. More so than cover, fitted in brilliantly and looks like he’s been at the club for years

    Joke about Bobby being unable to score.

    Diogo Jota has more home PL goals (4) than Manchester United (3) this season, despite playing 292 fewer minutes.

    Well that was easy.

    Rodgers really really has an inferiority complex.

    They destroyed wolves before the break. They never got out of their half today.

    They had to push up and give us no space but they played 5 at the back in effect and sat off.

    You know champions from how they cope with injuries. We have done that today.

    It was the overload in the middle from Bobby dropping deep that killed them, it gave then no forward passes and stopped them feeding Madison and Vardy.
