Having heard so much hype about Leicester, I wasn't impressed by them. They were overly physical, to the point where you'd have expected them to be coached by Pulis or Warnock. The centreback, Soyuncu, was terrible. Maybe I just caught him on a bad day, but I don't know what people see in that lad. Salah didn't have the best of games and he still managed to roll Soyuncu multiple times. We dominated them, and were only lacking that cutting edge that made us so clinical in the past. Have to say, hats off to Milner, that assist to Mane was deliciously weighted, and what nerve that was for that peno!

I think the penalty was fair as there was an easy pass on to lallana for an easy goal. As mane was about to play it albrightin catches him delaying the opportunity to pass until the opportunity was gone. Mane realizes pass is no longer on and goes down. Watch the angles again. I think there's a great chance we score if he doesn't get caught by albrighton.

If the was not a goal chance on then that would be a soft penalty for me but it prevented a big goal chance.

Same as you zpecialone. They only had 2 attepts on goal. I thought Vardy was poor and they really offered little in the way of goal threats.

I was expecting a closer game. We wernt at our best but we could have been 3 or 4 up

Or were we that good, it made them look average?

Zpecialone, you beauty! I was just about to post the same thing regarding LC. I thought they were utter dross all game. I mean, people had been promising us hell on earth in this game and rightly so and that was all they got? One shot on target all game, one that Adrian could/ should have saved? That's it? Thielemans for ex., was dreadful. You did not know he was on the pitch except when he had the ball which was rarely. Suyuncu was getting ripped up to pieces physically by Salah (he is Strong BUT not that strong) . I mean if Salah is bullying you then sorry, you are a poor CB, IMO.

Sorry, they were utterly terrible and to those bigging up BR an all that, he is still the same incompetent, small-minded manager who when going to play the big boys on the road (like he did with us), he would play small and frankly, did a Big Scam and parked the bus. His post game comments showed he has not changed one bit. Still the master of distraction and deflection (penalty call, Choudary etc. ) to hide his own incompetence in the game where he was getting his arse handed to him on a plate tactically by Klopp.

As for the penalty, that was a stone-cold penalty, all day. He was clearly kicked by Albrighton. I ain't trying to hear the dross about "Mane took a while to go down" rubbish. It is not Mane's job to stay on his feet when clearly kicked. Also I mean, is there a rule in football stating how long you have to stay on your feet before going down when tackled? If the answer is NO then pls, go somewhere else with that drivel. Also, if you agree that the tackle was a foul anywhere else on the field then, explain how it is not a penalty if it happened in the box?
