We’ve conceded twice as many second half goals in 4 league cup matches as we have in 17 league matches.

50 goals scored in all competitions before Christmas, pretty good effort!

Scored in every game since Man Utd game in September.

In probably a quarter of the time that Andy King had been here. Says a lot about his inconsistency and failure to hold down a starting place when given the chance

I like the lad but it's clear he's never going to be top 4 quality.

We conceded 2 goals in a game for only the second time this season in all competitions.

 

Both times the second goal was scored in the very last minute.

 

And both times it was on Merseyside.

Both times by ex England internationals who were established Premier League players when we were in League One.

Shamelessly nabbed by this boring bloke on Twitter

Don't think anyone has mentioned this but last night was only the 2nd time this season we have conceded more than 1 goal in a match. Both in the last minute. Both in Merseyside

Of the leading Premier league penalty acquirers, 3 are still playing and two will face each other on sat:

 

Jamie Vardy - 16

Raheem Sterling - 16

I assume it is penalties won...

Leicester City

• Leicester have their best record after 17 matches of a league season, with 39 points. 
• The Foxes have won their last four away from home, scoring 17 goals and conceding just one. They have never won five consecutive away games in the top flight. 
• Leicester's goal difference of +29 is the best in the Premier League. 
• If the Premier League was measured on second-half performance only, Leicester would be top and five points clear of Liverpool.
• Leicester have kept seven an unrivalled seven clean sheets in this season's Premier League.
• They have won all nine league games in which they scored first this season.
• Jamie Vardy has 28 Premier League goals in 2019, five more than any other player.

Thank goodness. I was worried that it was a new actual term, as in, "penalty acquirer, Delli Ali".

Yesterday was the first time we’ve scored first and didn’t go on to win since we lost 3-1 at Arsenal in October 2018 (19 matches).

[Carl the Llama]

With half the season played we sit 2nd in the table as one of only 3 teams in the league with a positive goal difference in the double figures.   Arsenal are on -3.

Staggering for me how few teams are on double-figured +GD.

 

Glad we're one of them!

Possible crazy stat today:

 

IF Vardy scores today he’ll be in an exclusive (Premier League) Club of 6 players to have scored 30 goals in a calendar year!
