    City 13 points clear then at the halfway point. Mental.

    Smalling was injured, nobody took his place at centre half, all subs used by Jose for no reason.

    Begging to concede to a team with 10 men.

    Irrespective of this, just before we inevitably conceded the equaliser we had an attack down the left, three men charging on, and Rashford chose to stop running and pass backwards when Lukaku would have been through.

    3-1, game over.

    Someone is telling them to do this ****. Pretty obvious who.

    Surely the best defence in these situations is to actually try to score the extra ****ing goal.

    Staggeringly bad.

    The substitutions were pathetic. Rashford shouldn't have been on the pitch.

    Agreed. Cowardly football at the end.

    Leicester City players getting booked for diving...again. Disgraceful club.

    Great point despite battling against Moss as well. Can’t disagree with the red (first booking a bit soft) and the pen shouts maybe evened themselves out (ours on Maguire was clearer cut) but the amount of times Utd players flop down and get free kicks every time is shocking. None of them got pulled up. We got none. Granted Mahrez dived and got rightly booked but given what Man U had going their way I can see why Mahrez thought he’d try

    Good game tbf. Leicester did very well to come back, Okazaki made a huge difference.

    I stated in my post, he was rightly booked. He did it because their dirty scabs were diving left right and centre. How Pogba didn’t get booked for pulling our lad back on the counter but Amartey got his first I don’t know. Inconsistent and incompetent reffing.
    Okazaki is a class act. It looked like he was fouled at the end on the end but I didn’t see it again. It was a good game though, I think we deserved a point.
    Martial is a twat

    Cracking night's entertainment at the King Power ... rode our luck a bit and United should have wrapped it up ... but we did have chances ourself and you just know that if Maguire and Smalling's roles were reversed and at our end then Jon Moss would give a pen all night long ... encouraging way for us to go into Xmas .. tremendous team spirit <cheers>

    Not such a bad day after all considering Chelsea left their sat nav on the team bus and couldn’t find the Everton goal. Liverpool, Arsenal, United all drawing. Collateral damage zero...lovely jubbly.

    I wouldn’t go that far but he always looks a bit moody. Smile mate, you’re a twenty something footballer on probably £150k a week.

    Jose blaming the players again.

    Nothing to do with the general attitude he has installed in them, no siree.

    Yeah Cantona was always playing the cheeky chappie too.

    Not sure what that's got to do with him turning up.
