Arsenal Match Thread

[Guest BlueBrett]

Kante's best 45 minutes for us? I wouldn't have believed he could get any better than we've already seen from him but fuk me he must be in double figures for turnovers already and he also looks like one of our biggest threats breaking forward today. Just incredible 

[fazzyfox]

Henry says pen!

[Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo]

Great time to score, I don't think Arsenal will have a particularly effective plan B.

Been a great game for neutrals so far, end to end and plenty of getting stuck in, I really hope w don't pick up any injuries - Kante was sent flying, Simpson looked in genuine pain earlier and Okazaki has taken a bit of bash to the ankle.

Let's get another and see the game out, COYB!!

Fair play Thierry was not expecting that !

[ranxerox]

Positives - Up 1-0

                -Team not showing any signs of being in awe of the occasion.

                 - Kante in fine form

                  - Nothing throws Arsenal, their supporters, and Wenger off their game more than feeling victimized

                 - Coquelin on a yellow makes their back 4 a little more vulnerable

                 - Ozul and Sanchez are missing in action

[Collymore]

We could lose the next 4 games and still be guaranteed to be in the top 4 by 3 points. Unbelievable

[Turk123]

45 minutes left, please god let this be the score at the end 

[Jimothy]

If Henry is saying its a penalty I'm accepting it was a penalty.

[tyfox]

Oh it was definitely a penalty. Make no mistake. He impeded Vards from getting to the ball

I agree mate peno all day long

[ozleicester]

What a season  

[yorkie1999]

Its going to be edge of the seat stuff second half. Time for a walk round the block

[Guest CityFan 06]

A very decent half for us, especially after Vardy's peno. Kante is immense, literally I'd say he's one of the best CM's in the Premier League.

Hope we can keep this lead. I think we can, we just need to stay solid and focused defensively, & capitalise on the attacks by scoring.

[Sionnach gorm]

There is no way I'm going to survive the next 45 minutes. I'm in bits. Never been so tense in my life.

You're in good company then

[Guest]

C'mon Leicester.

[The Doctor]

Montreal falling backwards, sticks his leg out and takes Vardy down. Definite penalty, and stupid defending, stand up and show him down the line, you can't control the tackle while on the fall like that. Only question is whether morgan fouled giroud as we won the ball back.

[foxes_rule1978]

For the first 10 or so minutes Arsenal were out the blocks quickly, we held out and got ourselves back in the game . I'm sure Arsenal will start the second in a similar fashion

[hlz]

Iv got 10 quid on vardy to score and leicester win at 9/1and ten on Kante motm at 25/1

Ltid!!!

I'm amazed they offer odds on motm. Could easily fix that

[trabuch]

@ Kantes touches map. Un effing believable.

[midland_red]

Deffo peno.

Kante has been outstanding. He is world class.

 

BBC Radio 5 commentators said was def a penalty..

[Guest BlueBrett]

How are people evening questioning whether it was a pen? Bloody stonewaller 

[Nuneatonfox in Manchester]

Don't think I've ever seen a better player than Ngolo Kante, must be the best player in the world at what he does?

Unreal energy

[4everfox]

Kante IS world class!

[Tuna]

 

....please.

[hlz]

How are people evening questioning whether it was a pen? Bloody stonewaller

I don't think it is due to vardy running jumping into the defenders legs when the ball is going a different direction. But it's very clever

[tyfox]

I'm amazed they offer odds on motm. Could easily fix that

I know it's crazy mate I couldn't believe the odds for Kante that's why I bet
