    Nice of Leicester not to give the ball back after Jones stops to let the ball go out so they can treat their injured player.

    Thiago so unlucky there. Then just brilliant footwork to get away from 2 players on edge of his own box. Guy oozes class

    Ooo should be 2-0. Just had to not hit that at the keeper. Build up play has been good. Not created tonnes but kept the pressure up and got in behind a couple of times only for the pull backs to not quite reach the target

    Really pleased with how Dias had fitted in and already seems willing and able to deal with the physical challenge here .
    Jota does nowt but score and thats enough :1980_boogie_down:

    Diaz just needs to be a bit more selfless tbh, always looking for the pass.

    How long has been since we've had a player like jota, someone who just knows where to stand to get those first time finishes.

    Yeah he’s ridden/rode a few tough tackles and just got right back up and carried on. Wondered how he’d deal with the physicality but done well. Switched off once defensively but otherwise been a solid game. Still think should have just hit that one first time in first 10 seconds

    More selfless? Or more selfish?

    Really surprised me. Thought when he joined he was a wide player who would chip in with a couple goals but he’s far more effective centrally and as you both say, very much a poacher in that knows where to be in the box.

    Someone already compared Diaz with Philippe Coutinho, I am not sure who it was, but I think Mark Lawrenson.

    Giving away silly free kick is not helpful.

    Leicester formation is self harm here.

    1 up and zero pressure on our cbs as a result is giving us an easy out.

    We are cruising a bit too much for me this half but we are leading.

    Let's get salah and Elliott on.

    Interesting tactic to leave vvd completely unmarked 10 yards out from the corner.
