    A great win and we should have won 4 nil. If we keep going we will be in the top half for sure

    Must be Arnie's turn to score next.

    Ha ha yeah. We should have scored 5 really. We are starting to hit a bit of form now. Next up is Swansea so another possible 3 points and we are up to mid table

    Both of Shaq's goals were special and deserving of goal of the month on MOTD. However it's MOTD so the award is bound to go to Fuchs because it's Leicester City (and Gary Lineker)!!

    I think Fuchs goal had a hint of luck about it, a "bash it and hope for the best" , whereas Shaqs pearler was all precision and power.
    However, both were good to watch, even though they were not scored against the Arse.

    Much better performance. They were shocking but you can on,y play what's in front of you. As Ric says, could of been at least 4.

    I am not sure what is inferred by " you can only play what is in front of you ", Of course, I know what the individual words mean.
    I think what should be said is " you can only play as well as the opposition allows you to ". And lets be honest, the last two opponents allowed us to do whatever we wanted to.

    Being pedantic, both statements are valid, but have different connatations.

    The original statement gives the more accurate depiction, as KKB's does not accept that you can play very very well and still lose. Whatever

    T ouch ! ( e )
    No connOtation of " you cannot play very very well and still lose " is evident to me in what I wrote.
    Nick, you are reading something into the piece that simply was not intended.
    Just to clarify, by the same token, you can also play very very badly and still win. <peacedove>
