PL football is pretty much a cartel now. They'll get their Super League eventually. It's just taken them longer than they'd planned.

Whoever is responsible, Vichai would be turning in his grave if he could see how the club has been run since his death.

Exactly

There seems to be a lot of smoke, which usually means one thing....

Aside from the penalty decision. His nit-picking further ruined an already poor game. He absolutely killed any flow stone dead. Not impressed at all

I think that's a very fair assessment and I totally agree. Sorry to repeat myself, but what I find bizarre is that I totally get the chess analogy he loves to refer to, and can totally see how that is a good strategy in tight games. What I don't get is making games like today's harder than they need to be by deliberately making it like a chess game. I watched the Sunderland stream, and they could not understand why we sat back and invited pressure and waited for them to make mistakes when we have the players to force the mistakes. We don't need to be 'patient' all the time. That, I cannot understand in a situation where that approach is not needed.

Would highly recommend not trying to sit on a 1-0 lead for 75 minutes

Fair play to Ipswich, they never give up the fight.

I just cannot understand the caution after going ahead. It's inexplicable. Don't make it a chess game if it doesn't need to be* *I'm aware of the irony of my current profile pic

I get your point, but I think you should be. We were dreadful against a poor Sunderland side with no recognised forward and shorn of their best players. That was a shocking performance. So lethargic.

Bizarrely, I'm more worried after a game we've just won than I was before the game. That was a dreadful second half performance

Sorry, but that was a pathetic second half performance. Pretty awful from the 13th minute

Great referee. What a guy. Superb

Thoughts are with Luton and Palace fans who are going to have their game round by this busy twat this weekend.

We look absolutely knackered

That Rigg kid is dominating, largely as he's the only one in the midfield area who seems to be trying. KDH and Winks looked ****ed. Great idea to leave the Sensi deal so late

Tbf, both he and Winks have been poor tonight. Bit of a malaise throughout the team.

Not managed a shot on target this half, I don't think?

Sounds mad but it feels like we've been playing for a 0-1 since Vardy scored. It's madness

This is ****ing mental, what is he waiting for? Their equaliser?

Enzo, do something mate. Please

****ING WAKE UP

We're going to **** it up again, aren't we?

Fussy as ****, this referee. Not helping matters by penalising any hint of physical play. Ruining an already shit game

Passive. Inviting pressure. I just cannot understand it.
