We could need a dirty cunt like Pepe.

Kicking the arse out of diving cunts like Costa, Coutinho or Rooney. Too late now, but still.

Was hoping that would be the Otter. but while he's strong in the tackle, he's a bit of a diver as well

Casemiro was immense from Real. Excellent defensive midfielder. Not a chance of us getting him I'm afraid. Kroos looked good too. May well get him!

Interesting day today.

Can see a slip against Southampton for Leicester and maybe a draw in the rag game later.

I'm not sure if at this stage I want Leicester to lose or win. I definitely want them to win the league over spurs or arsenal but we have to be mathematically out of it first I think!

While I agree with you Ronan. I said it before and I'll say it again, Leicester are shite to watch. It's terrible football for the best part of this half.
Southampton aren't going for them and they don't know how to control a game that they have the possession in.

Southampton hit them on the break there.
Mane should have scored. Could have had a penalty.
Leicester look nervy.

hat looked like he definitely pulled his arm back to stop the ball. Seems because his body was there that it doesn't matter.

I saw that as a penalty and sending off. The handball was clear. If it had been blasted at him from 2 yards then fair enough but he had plenty time to get his arm out the way

That's how I saw it but like I said, it seems that a handball is OK as long as your body is somewhere in the line of the goal. The defender thought the ball was going past him and pulled his arm back to stop the ball. Isn't that a penalty for stopping a clear cut opportunity?

I've played football all my life but no longer understand the rules as Sky/BT et al keep telling me different takes on it, depending on who is playing.

Leicester can do no wrong atm. That vardy challenge was naughty and completely unnecessary but it's deemed a good strong tackle.

Note how it's all reported. We have eyes in our head but the media want to tell us different. No wonder the referees are never questioned, it's as if they do what the media want.

Oh, wait.......

Yeah eamonn I agree with that, but this game is no different than most of the games they've been involved in. They just know how to nick a goal and they get every slice of luck a team can get.

It's mind blowing stuff really.

The rules of the game are crazy at the moment. That Huth handball was as clear a penalty as you'll get, in my book, but he didn't mean it so it's ok.
His arm wasvout and he stopped the ball going goal bound.
Even more clear than the one in the first half.

Proper brick wall at the back Leicester. Saints trying but just don't look like they can create clear chances to score

That just shows how poor the league has been this season. Probably worst league ever.

Over the last 12 months Leicester have got 91 points( includes back end of last season). That's 18 points more than any other Premiership team.

Come on Everton!
