If you watched the game without knowing the game at all you would have guessed that Leicester was the big money club with all the high profile players. United looked slow going forward and any attack was cut out easily. Where Leicester were quick and always looked dangerous.

Seen a statistic earlier(no sure if completely accurate) that United had 69% possession yet only managed 2 shots on target. Should be putting 5 past them with that much possession. Also LVGs 5-3-2 formation showed up again. One positive was that he finally figured out that Rooney can be subbed though it did nothing for us.

Was expecting more from the Spurs vs Chelsea game. Boring match with not much happening at all.

Costa wasn't pleased with not getting on the pitch as well.

Thought we were the better team despite playing with a false striker. Oscar, Pedro and Hazard were threatening. Fabregas has lost his hat but I'm sure he will find it.

A bit of passion isn't a bad thing with Diego.

Chelsea definitely had the best chance of the game IMO with Lloris pulling out a cracking save to deny hazard. Spurs looks fairly dominant early on but Chelsea just grew into the game as time went on.

I'll take the pair of clean sheets after the dreadful start to the year.

Depends, if that was Fergie he'd be gone January 1st. Mourinho may or may not react the same way.

1 point ahead of City and United. 4 points ahead of Spurs. 7 points ahead of Liverpool. 15 points ahead of Chelsea. And still not first.

Every big team except us dropped points which is great, but Leicester is starting to get annoying.

If City are ever champions, they always want to do it in the dodgiest way possible. Needed United to slip up near the end in 11/12 and still very almost f**ked it, let it slip to Liverpool near the end in 13/14 only for Liverpool to f**k it up, and at the moment are losing games they shouldn't lose or games they shouldn't lose as badly, despite having the best squad in the EPL. They're so nonchalant.

Also saw that Mourinho moaned about Bournemouth time wasting. Is the guy actually just completely deluded, or is it some kind of pathetically desperate attempt at 'deflecting the attention away from the team'?

Obviously they get no credit for being determined enough to steal two goals in injury time to take the Title. They also beat United a few weeks before the end of the season.

You so desperately want to top the league in December? :roll:

He's just trying to convince himself arsenal are title favourites guys. You know deep down he doesn't believe it so he has to have a weekly update including points totals and injury reports of other sides not named arsenal.

You'd almost think he was a LFC fan at times with the carry on and some of us can be quite deluded at times.

Been a few weeks since we've seen a "Boom Boom Boom" from him.

Who cares if they were determined enough to get the two goals in injury time, they shouldn't have let it get to that situation anyway.

Shouldn't have, but did and still overcame and won the thing. Have to agree I haven't seen a better finish to a season/competition. Was in Thailand at the time watching all games at the Aussie bar in Phuket and the place just erupted.
