It would still taste like stale piss?

for me Armarteys defensive performance was the big difference in a great teamperformance, i think Slimani has the strength to do well in the prem... hopefully confidence back

[GloverFox]

Over the moon to get a deserved win against a very accomplished side such as Club Brugge ... Debut Champions League game and a win, fantastic stuff City ...

I guess your mates don't like you?

Credit to Amartey, He new he had a poor game on Saturday and gave an accomplished performance tonight. Remember he's only 21 Years old. What a player he can be for us.

 

Slimani will be a lot better when he's had time to get to know the lads and to train up to our level.

[Chimme]

Club Brugge underperformed tonight. Leicester delivered. A well deserved victory for LCFC. Congrats to your team and the fans. Hope they all had a good time in Bruges.

[ScouseFox]

insane. porto dropping points too. gotta think we will 100% be in europe after christmas now. buzzing. 

[Manwell Pablo]

They were really poor tonight, as a club never mind the 11 that were on the pitch who looked nervous and in a lot of positions simply not good enough, 1000s of spare tickets, barely made any noise (I admit it's not that easy when you go down early). Still looks like our fans have well treated and the Bruges fans on here have been alright (most of the time)

 

We played well, lucky to get away with that chance they had early doors but always had the better of the game and punished their numerous mistakes ruthlessly, pleasing to see us dominate a game without relying on then counter attack. Big players got some rest for Saturday and Porto dropped a bollock. Top night all in all.

 

A win Saturday next please, need to get ourselves going in the league.

On another note, it's a disgrace how many empty seats there were when so many more of us were hoping to go.

I tried on all sites including the 2-3 Brugge official sites.

Then the general Football ticketting sites....

Either came up with no further tickets available, or the silly pimp sites wanting anything from 140- 750 euros.

I dont get it...EUFA SHOULD really look at it...They wont cos they dont care..they have the TV money..

[SpinneyHillRanger]

Slimani will be a big hit here..... I loved the way he fits into our game both long balls he heads on, flicks to vardy. and his aggressive pressure style. Will score lots of goals I have no doubt

 

Amartey seemed to play well too

Simpson looks like he's giving Fuchs a hand job and Fuchs is absolutely loving it 

[Sionnach gorm]

We really needed that. After the Liverpool game, I thought Foxestalk posters were about to commit mass suicide. sweet game!

[ScouseFox]

tonight again shows Jamie Vardy is a footballer like absolutely no other there has ever been. He absolutely ruined them. You can do all the prep and think you know everything about his game but that first time you play against him as a defender or a goalkeeper you're going to resort to bringing him down after he gets to the ball first in a seemingly impossible situation. 

 

 

Nobody in the conference could deal with it. Nobody in the championship could deal with it. He'll never be able to do that in the premier league up against cultured, accomplished defenders. Nobody in the premier league could deal with it. We've got global recognition now people are wise to that. Turns out nobody in the champions league is gonna be able to handle our not even very secret weapon. What a hero. 

[GaelicFox]

Still champions
