We drew against Burnley, right? Am I missing something? We lost to Arsenal and then beat Villa before that.  

Mate, we're second to the most expensive side in history, what do you want?

That should shut all the whiny cvnts up til the match thread. 

Rodgers should have bought loads of players in Jan, Rodgers is a clown Rodgers has made us a laughing stock, Rodgers can't motivate the team, blah blah blah. This forum is full of absolute morons, and I'm so happy we won tonight for so many reasons. 

Forget it dude. People cant read a game of football. Pity them that rather than get angry. 

 

The signs were there (for those that can read a game) in the first half that an upping of tempo and aggression would probably  glean a.point.

[The Quick Brown Fox]

The best thing about that is, we didn't deserve it and the lads now get a week to get some rest for the first time in what seems an age. 

 

Get the fùck in and on we roll. The result will help the mentality 100%. 

If we lost this each and every one of them would have been thinking it's happening again...

Tielemans is just unbelievable, I don't think he's even been allowed to sleep in the last 12 months or so and he just oozes absolute class even though he must be absolutely fvcked

Am I the only one who thought Vardy did his usual best to buy a penalty and the ref either didn’t buy it or thought Dunk got the ball? 
 

Watch Vardy’s left leg he puts it back into Dunk, anticipating contact 

Vardy is so clever with when he goes down that I find it hard to tell sometimes

We Cow Pied it , with our very own Desperate Dan...

BR told him that he wanted to sign him a while back and that he should have known better than to sign for BHA.

Heskey and Townsend both say the Brighton player used his arm on Vardy's leg

Oh yeah, I'm with you and them it should have been a pen, but I want games to be reffed by the man in black and unless it's an absolute howler let him ref the game. I want to see tackles and I want to see a fair contest, it was very close to clean tackle and it doesn't upset me that they aren't given. What does upset is the way every decision is over analysed and the joy of football is being eroded. I want to live in every moment and not wait for every goal/penalty to be reviewed by var.

Were albrighton and Ricardo both playing right wing ?

To be fair to him he's not having a go at us? I think you may have misinterpreted there buddy

You ok Hun?

Honestly no idea how we have been given that

 

Let's put in 2 big performances and then have a breather. Tielemans and Castagne to pick up slight strains just before the international break plase.

[The People's Hero]

I tell you something now and its hugely telling.

 

There have been games in the last 2 months we'd have dropped more points in last season.

 

We are in a tough spot and we aren't exactly where we want to be but this side, this club, this group of players cares and is digging in. 

 

We are getting points we just wouldn't have got last season. 

 

We were maybe even a better proposition last season but the game management, the mentality is better. The performances are rotten at times but I for one am proud of the players.

My issue all season with the ol' "is it a glaring mistake" is there's an element of interpretation. They're subjectively judging whether the ref made a mistake not whether it's a foul or not. So you could even ask the VAR ref' was it a pen' and they would almost certainly say yes but still not give it as a pen' because they don't feel the ref on the pitch made a "glaring" mistake. Which seems somewhat mad to me. 

[Preston Fox]

That is a huge 3 points. To go 1 down, with a load of injuries and against a decent side and to pull it back is a cracking effort and shows there is some great fighting spirit in this side. If we get top 4, this could be the game we look back on

Dans first goal in over 4 years sorry Brighton’s ever obliging thread 

Hes been out for 3 of them...

[eastendfox]

Four points, two games, half a team. Take that.

 

And for those hitting on Vardy as out of form, he was often the one linking the play when needed in the second half. Far more than a goalscorer, still a top class forward.

Is it not fair for people to question why we can't start a game with that tempo and aggression?

Dunk did catch him first, he fell and as he fell he did put his leg back into Dunk. But the first contact without touching the ball should be enough. Seen much lighter touches given by VAR. This one was actually pretty clear a penalty. The fact that the ref was not even called to see it was baffling. Even amongst VAR controversies this is way up there to be honest. If we didn’t win we will be talking about it for a week.

It's just incredible reading some of the tosh. 1 nil down and we are the worst team ever, Rodgers getting dogs abuse despite working wonders since coming here. He's linked with every top job around and God help us if he ever read this forum. 

[Finn Claw II]

Don’t quite get this robbed a win talk.  We were poor in the first half but miles better than Brighton in the second half. 
 

In the second half it was us giving the ball away that led to Brighton’s chances.

 

We could have had a peno, Vardy could have scored, Nacho moves a yard he has another.

 

Not great but let’s not pretend Brighton were any good
