For me that's easy. Straight swap for Evans, as good as Evans is for us most games, he's just too slow releasing the ball. Cags is far better going forward. 

Evans has to start for me. I feel he makes fofana and soyuncu better by being along side them. Long term it's probably what will happen but right now Evans is undroppable for me.

I have to admit I thought I was sitting down to watch us lose today. But you really never know at the moment which Leicester will turn up. Very glad the one where we make spurs look completely ordinary did.

Maddison very unlucky to have his vardy tribute goal ruled out. Off sides like that are not in the spirit of the game imo.

Everyone well on it and subs played there part. So good to have nidid back where he belongs and castangne coming through 65 mins. 

Come on Leicester ! Let's have man u next week and be well in with a shout of top four or more ??!

As long as.we can handle McMessi-Tominay

Gareth Bale gets £600,000 per week.

 

Let that sink in.

It’s cost us £30m but we finally have a defender that can stop kane scoring!

Amartey didn't cost £30 mill.

Looks like he's not bothered anymore. Did absolutley nothing to even try and get himself in the game. Just waiting for the beach and the golf course.

It’s now clear as day as that when games are open, we are deadly and one of the best teams in the league. When games are tight and we come up against a defensively well organised team, we are one of the most boring teams in the league.

 

Right now it’s all about finding the right formula for us to beat the likes of West Ham, Villa, Fulham etc...

 

3-4-3 away from home has been very effective for us, with the right personnel, it could be the perfect formation going forward.  With Castagne back and when Ricardo returns, it could be the perfect formation for us. The back three today were excellent, atm I don’t know how Soyuncu gets back into this team. We just need to find the right balance in the forward areas, for me playing Praet or Perez would offer better movement in the forward areas, and they’d make us more effective down the flanks. Numerous times today, especially in the first half, Justin, Albrighton and Castagne were picking up the ball and they had nobody in front of them.

 

It will be interesting to see what we do now going forward, today’s formation and personnel makes us extremely flexible, it can easily start as a 3-4-3, then easily be changed into a 4-2-3-1 as seen against Brighton.

 

Weird. I think we're joint 2nd best with 18 other teams.

Ooo ya fighter. 
 

The most refreshing part of that was the first half. None of that Leicester only work as a counter attack threat. We bossed long periods

Got so much energy and been very good. Needs to work on his final ball but you can see how he’s getting more belief with every game. Potential to be an amazing player for us, could argue he is already 

???????? did you watch the Brighton game

[ealingfox]

Couldn't watch the game but sounds like a great performance and obviously a brilliant result. Seen the still of the disallowed goal and

Various observations and comments.

 

Ndidi is massive.

 

Castagne put in a good shift and didn't get reinjured.

 

James Justin keeps improving.  He has been beaten by raw physicality in the past, but those things will happen to young players.

 

Albrighton can still contribute.  He will of course have the occasional bad game, as most players do.

 

Fofana is Back in Black (hair).

 

Spurs had some solid chances in the second half.  Schmeichel was very good when it was needed.  Youri got badly beaten for a Kane header that thankfully went over the bar.

[Nick]

Ndidi and Fofana were immense.

He's a goal machine

[Guest Danny Clender]

It was around about the 60th minute mark, I closed my eyes and the only name I heard on the commentary was Ndidi.

He was unreal today, such a performance and so valuable to us.

 

Everyone played their part, but Marc Albrighton though, he's so important to our squad.

Saw this while browsing the Arsenal forum:

 

For me it’s official, Leicester are a top 6 side and take our place. I’ve accepted it.

If we get European football again this season and finish above them again, I think it will be official. If you take into account our new training academy, our coach and our squad, we would be better than them in every category other than our stadium. And in current times, having a massive stadium isn't all that useful!

 

To take a team from the Championship to being a top 6 perennial Premier League team in a "fair" way, IE not the Chelsea / Man City way would truly be one of the best achievements by any owner in league history. Owners can't win awards, but if they could, Vichai and now Top would have cleaned up already. Cannot believe how lucky we are to have had them buy the club.

I do get it, you want us to fail so you can be right but just when you think it’s happening Brendan pull your pants down.

I honestly thought on numerous occasions that Amartey was finished here and had very little to offer. 

 

I hold my hands up now, I hope he's here for a few more as it seems you can ask him to fill in anywhere and he puts in a damn good shift and never let's you down. 

 

Big Dan, my 7th drink this eve I's for you Sir

One of my favorite players in our squad.

I just love his enthusiasm despite all the bad look he's suffered.

I hope we give him another Contract and he stays as I feel he can only get better.

I triple captained Kane. I knew that was the only way we'd win this. Thank me later.
