I feel like pulling a sickie at work tomorrow to stay home and reminisce

Is there anything better than a pre-match FT meltdown proved wrong? 😂

You can criticise the defending from the corner, fine, but honestly, reading through the match thread was so depressingly negative I could feel the ceiling lowering down with every page.  It was excessive.

 

 

It's like the only acceptable play is to go gung-ho and lose 5-0.

Bredan on sky trying not to grin!

[Fox96]

Castange looked brilliant yet again

[UniFox21]

This is one of those brilliant moments of football, I'm genuinely speechless. 

[Dr The Singh]

First half we seemed a little too respectful, second half was better, very Claude Puelesque

[Fightforever]

[fazzyfox]

Great credit to our away end, you sounded great on the TV, safe journey home

This is one of the best team goals we've ever scored.

 

• High Press
• Amartey steps up and heads it back to a man
• Wonderful interplay between the Belgians (Notice the off the ball work Praet does to make space for his teammates)
• Tielemans amazing pass with his "weaker" foot.
• Incredible surge and cross from Castagne
• Wonderful finish from the GOAT

 

Incredible!!!

 

 

 

It was Justin who had sprinted across the pitch to press Ake and make him rush the clearance and then causes him to step back inside making the space for Castagne too.

All round great goal.

[TeaMen Tom]

Happy as heck for Mendy and Amartey especially. What a day for the Foxes

My hope turned to euphoria.....

[AndyMaidenhead]

Stunning..so tight between defence n midfield..best for years...omg..I dare to dream again...

[Larry_LCFC]

The absolute implosion on the Blue Moon forum is spectacular. Well worth a read.

 

I have to admit I was worried when I saw the lineup. Dont really rate Amartey. But fair play to everyone, that was a really good performance.

No patience.

[Aesc]

The fact we came from behind to do that makes it even better.

Yeah I couldn't get that into the GIF because of file size limits, but too right - that's the high press to force the mistake.

You've actually chopped out my favourite part which is our left back leading the press on the right wing. 

[Spudulike]

Did that really just happen?

Every now and then he sees Vardy run behind and then he picks him out with a pass

AND WE'RE SCORING 5 TONIGHT, THE FIRST TEAM AGAINST PEP EVER,

AND WE'RE HOLDING ON ALRIGHT, WITH AMARTEY AS A DEFENDER

WITH TIMMY CASTAGNE RUNNING DOWN THE RIGHT,

TOGETHER WE GET BEHIND THEIR DEFENSIVE LINE

AND GETTING A HAT TRICK FOR OUR BEST NUMBER 9

WE'RE SCORING 5 TONIGHT,

LEICESTER'S SCORING 5 TONIGHT,

LEICESTER'S SCORING 5 TONIGHT,

Once upon a time Mahrez gave them a lead,

then the foxes ripped them apart,

What more can we say,

It's a total eclipse of Joe Hart (actually Ederson)

Fantastic points from souness, a great pundit😏

[whitlock]

Exciting to think we’ve got Under to come in still, ridiculous amount of pace we’ll have at the top end of the pitch.

[Parafox]

Where are you now?
