    He only needs one chance.

      Vardy scoring in a 0-1 Leicester win, in Leicester City’s first actual threat at goal other than Maddison trying to catch Leno off his line twice?

      I’m sooooooooo shocked.

      Nobody—nobody saw this coming.

          The ball from Tielemans to send through Under for the Vardy goal was brilliant.

              ^ I put him in my team today. To be honest, he hasn't seen much of the ball. He was even gesturing quite a bit, that they weren't passing it to him.

                I’ve seen Arsenal play really poorly many times. That was honestly up there. The complete inability to finish any chances, put a corner into the box, or create chances when they’re desperately needed is shocking.

                The narrative will be Rodgers being brilliant and unleashing Vardy at the right time, but the truth is Arsenal could have ended the game in the first half. Leicester were pinned back and barely escaped the first half.

                From that point, they were given the match on a plate. Rodger’s “plan” only works if they win, but it was set to see them lose if Arsenal can take care of their basics.

                Arsenal 100% lost that match, not the other way around.

                  Tbf you can say the same thing about Arsenal. You guys are basically a more expensive Burnley at the moment.

                  Just gets old constantly hearing Lampard and Arteta pitted against each other, and how Lampard isn't good enough because we are having defensive issues, but like he's a real coach who is trying to implement a real style and is just having a bit of trouble blending defense with offense.

                  Arteta literally just parks 11 men behind the ball and hopes that Auba and that kid win the game on their own. He's not out here playing Pepball, it's just the entire team playing defense and hoping for the best.

                    On another note, Lamela has to be the least likable player in the league since Fellaini.

                      For me, he’s above Grealish & Maddison on the list of people I’d love to take a swing at.

                        Idk why I don’t have a problem with Grealish lol.

                        Though my wife pointed out that we always seem to like the players who wear tiny shin pads, which is oddly accurate.

                          So Oliver McBurnie is your favorite player of all time?

                            I'd like to think I've matured as a human being, because I'm not saying any of the tens of thousands of jokes that immediately sprung to mind. But I'm also pointing this out, so I'm not that mature.


                            Also, been told this is the earliest we've had a season with no invincible team, plenty of Chelsea 1-loss impersonators it would seem though.

                              Oh neither one of those guys (Grealish & Maddison) are on my hate list. I like Grealish. They're both too good for me to dislike.
