Madders has found his perfect role at set pieces...loitering somewhere near where it's going to be taken from then rubbing up against the scorer if it goes well.....

I didnt even know who amad was before today! 37 million? When was this?

It was one of their last minute buys to appease their fans when they didn't get Sancho. Van der Beek was another and there was one more as well that I can't remember

This is where I'm at. I've actually  superb track record of not watching the game but keeping my phone in the match day thread and when we need a goal refreshing the page and then slowly working my way through the countless pages to see we've scored. So I'll do that for us tonight.

And that's exactly what I did 2nd half. Managed to turn it on just as Greenwood equalised and watched the 1st half and knew I was the biggest problem.

 

So I fcuked the game off and quickly put my son to bed and then browsed the match day thread for the remainder of the 2nd half, knew we'd scored when I saw the page numbers suddenly increase by about 10 in a minute. 

 

I don't recommend this though, it's absolute torture, anxiety through the roof. Dry mouth, sweaty behind, just awful. But I got us the win and now you lot who haven't liked the VICHAI HAD A DREAM post need to return the favour.

 

Just watched the 2nd half now and we were superb to a man. Tielemans, Ndidi, Fofana, Albrighton and Thomas were warriors.

 

Maddison looked much livelier when he came on and seem to invigorate Iheanacho and Vardy in to becoming a danger to their defence.

 

What a monumental win that is, it just breathes confidence back in to us just at a time when we were treading water.

 

GET IN LEICESTER!!

No problem with them discussing Man City as champions. It's quite clearly the bigger occasion. 

 

Imagine if they spoke about Chelsea vs Spurs in 2016 when we won the league lol

 

Totally comparable. The plucky little  underdogs have won (ahem we won it for them) only their 4th title in 5 years, having finished as far back as 2nd in the remaining year. A massive victory for football!

The result is great but Utd players looked hungrier and faster, and it generally felt like they wanted it more than us. I hope this experiment with Tim at CB doesn't persist for too long.

Disagree. I thought we played well tonight, we managed the game well particularly after the second. 

 

We looked good at the back and kept them to only Fernandes screwed shot wide as their only chance in the second half. 

 

We looked more positive on the ball and drove forward with it when the opportunity arose. Much better than the last few games. 

 

I genuinely think we're nackered, the lads have just got to dig in now for one more week and find that inner energy to finish on a high. Tonight's performance reminded me of our league win season, a game we simply managed, not quality or decisive, but just enough to get the job done. 

 

Bring on the final!!!!:bounce:

Yes, but Tottenham can't.

 

If all those 4 overtook us (mathematically possible but highly unlikely), we'd finish 7th - and be in the Euro-Conference thing (final European qualifying place).

Really not interested in the Euro Conference. Europa is bad enough. Does the FA cup give a Europa place? If so, would we qualify even if we lose it?

The FA Cup still gives a Europa League place, I believe, but only if you win it now? Someone else may confirm....

I'd bet the mortgage Evans will take a pain killing injection for Saturday. 

....would rather keep a back four!!!

We looked like we had started to understand each other in the second half and confidence began to flow, suddenly players started to believe in themselves and each other. The partnership of Fofana and Soyuncu can only grow and will be the future, having Evans on the bench is a good option.

Honestly, if they were hungrier and faster than us, it puts it into even better light that we restricted them to four shots and just one on target. Not sure how you are able to turn that performance into a negative for us.

Just look at that for happiness/I can not wait to break my fast.

 

Seriously, considering the kid has been fasting, he’s been outstanding.

It might have been mentioned already, but there really is something brilliant about little old Leicester edging closer to being amongst Europe's elite competition after benefitting from Man United being weakened because of their fan protests against the ESL/Glazers who were the very same people who were trying to stop us from being amongst them all to start with.

Avoided this place until the final whistle as I just knew there would be a meltdown if we weren't 3-0 up inside 10 minutes! 

 

Thought it was a nervous side vs a young rusty side first half, but we came out much stronger in the 2nd and N'didi for me had a fantastic role in that. 

 

It was far from a vintage performance but I don't care who you are, pressure gets to everyone and you need experience in dealing with it. This result was huge in beginning to shake that monkey off our back. We still have a job to do and I would hate to go into that Spurs game needing a result, because they still have game winners in their squad. 

 

But really fancy Man U to have too much for Liverpool's defence and win that. Nearly there boys but typical Leicester, there could be another squeaky bum moment to come. Hang on in there :scarf:

I'm not turning it into a negative, just commenting on how I saw it. Utd looked faster and more determined. Maybe I should have mentioned 1st half only. We eventually got warmed up but not many opposition will let us get away with it. Newcastle didn't and I don't think Chelsea will.

All the negativity and doom mongers and nay sayers need to be banned from match threads. Constructive criticism is fine but blowing us off after 16 mins is unreasonable and stupid. Wait for the result then criticise if you feel the need
