Few things.

Fraser Forster is God. Has to be England number 1 for sure.

Payet is absolute class.

I'm terrified for us v Leicester today. Let's go boys!!!!!

 

[toythatkills]

The worst thing about today is the two-week gap before the next League game, so if we fuck it up it'll just stew for ages.

 

[SictorVullivan]

Come on you foxes

 

[spidye]

I'm done with football

bro I was done with football the moment pep said he can both manage bayern and start planning for city

what a tool.

football will be alive next season when papa ancelotti saves us

 

[Roberto Larcos]

Is this sarcasm, or...?

 

[toythatkills]

Come on you foxes

Vardy must have seen Mertesacker on Arsenal's team-sheet and not stopped laughing since

 

[bjaelke]

Great tackle by Kasper and subsequently save by Cech

 

[SictorVullivan]

Wow Kasper and Wow Cech

 

[Pachimari]

I'm really cheering on Kasper and Leicester here.

 

[SictorVullivan]

Kante has to be up there with signings of the season. Just has to be.

 

[GoldenCrow]

Unless they fuck up Arsenal should have this. They are the far better team. Kanté is class though, he's been involved in pretty much everything.

edit: Hahaha sorry Arsenal fans I jinxed that one for you. Great feint by Vardy to get that penalty.

 

[bjaelke]

Well they just fucked up.

 

[Infernostew]

Errr... Vardy was looking for that PK.

 

[SictorVullivan]

OH MY GOD

 

[Pachimari]

Arsenal 0-1 Leicester.

This feels so good.

 

[mellz]

Disgraceful penalty call.

 

[Moobabe]

Morgan clambers all over Ozil at one end; no free kick. 20 seconds later a weak penalty and a yellow card for Arsenal.

Leicester get away with SO much in the tackle because they're "plucky underdogs." It also doesn't help that Atkinson is the most incompetent referee in the league.

 

[Roberto Larcos]

Atkinson is an absolute joke of a referee. Should have been a free kick at one end, Leicester counter, and he gives a penalty for nothing at the other.

 

[Rush_Khan]

This ref is so bad.

its not really for nothing, there was clear contact....Vardy did what most forwards do, made a meal of it.

 

[Jerm411]

Contact he initiated....

 

[Portugeezer]

Yeah he was clearly looking for the contact, which is fine if the defender actually then makes contact, but he ran into the defender, not the other way around...

... learning how to become champions.

 

[Rush_Khan]

I think it was a penalty, even if Vardy was looking for it, but that foul on Ozil not being given is amateurish by the referee.

 

[Into]

Im cheering for Lester' as any neutral but cmon that was no penalty. Ran into his leg and fell over.

Overall a good game, much better than plethora of other overhyped "Prem Top Teams" games.

 

[Moobabe]

If Ashley Young had done that people would lose their shit - Leicester are getting away with so much this season because "OMG WHAT A STORY!"

Neutrals want Leicester to win.

Spoiler

Go Leicester!

 

[Portugeezer]

haha true

 

[SictorVullivan]

Monreal left his leg out there, why should Vardy jump over it? He invited contact and got punished for it.

 

[Roberto Larcos]

its not really for nothing, there was clear contact....Vardy did what most forwards do, made a meal of it.

Vardy made the contact though, he just ran into him.

 

[Jerm411]

The non call on Ozil on the other end before the penalty where Morgan mounted him is even more egregious....

Nah! Just a robust, championship style challenge! Leicester are a hard working, honest bunch!

 

[Jerm411]

Yup and Vardy is "clever"....

 

[Roberto Larcos]

Chambers / Mertesacker has never looked like a good partnership.

 

[DSN2K]

should have had a 2nd pen.

 

[Jerm411]

should have had a 2nd pen.

You can't be serious lol...that was a hilariously bad dive...

 

[Roberto Larcos]

should have had a 2nd pen.

Leicester should have a second booking you mean?

 

[GoldenCrow]

should have had a 2nd pen.

If diving is what constitutes a penalty.

 

[bjaelke]

Karma

 

[SictorVullivan]

Never a yellow

 

[Infernostew]

Welp, the match was fun while it lasted...

 

[toythatkills]

Leicester down to ten just means Arsenal will have all the possession while doing nothing with it, much as the game has progressed thus far.

 

[Orbis]

No excuses now for Arsenal. They are the better team and one man up.

 

[GoldenCrow]

Never a yellow

Yeah it was. Clear cut. Giroud had got past his man.

 

[Vostro]

This ref wtf?

 

[toythatkills]

Coquelin could have just got the dumbest red card in the history of football then, somewhat lucky.

 

[D4Danger]

are people really trying to say this wasn't a penalty?

 

[toythatkills]

Look at Vardy, his eyes are on Monreal's leg, he doesn't give a shit about where the ball is.

But you'd be pissed if it wasn't given for your team. Six of one, etc.

 

[bjaelke]

Look at his left arm and leg. Clearly seeking contact.

 

[Into]

This is gonna be classic Le Arse, they should win now, but they wont. They will Arse it up as only they can.

 

[Fakeknowledge]

Sturridge, Coutinho and Firmino all start for Liverpool 😏

That might be the first time they all start together i think..
