Yikes...

Hazard just came back from a mid-term injury but looks like he got injured again...

Leicester have won only 3 of their last 11 league games but still have a 10-point lead over 5th...

On top of that Le Celso's stamp on Azpi, he also committed a few high foot challenges in 2-3 other incidents (even mildly kicked Mount early on) but somehow got away with them. At one point, I thought he would get away even with murder had he killed someone out there!

Prepare for Conference football in a few years' time people because we're gonna lose every game when Alonso is gone...

Mourinho went full Mourinho post-match...

Or disregarding Giroud entirely for no apparent reason... Well, I've nothing to say about that. It is as annoying as it is predictable.

Think the problem with Mount right now is, if you want him to play a pressing/tactical role, he can do that effectively but if you want him to create chances and score goals, then he's gonna struggle. It's little wonder why people have branded him Oscar 2.0 and why he has looked better against the bigger sides and not the lesser ones.

Oh right, Derby in the cup last season. I'm inclined to agree with you but if you're gonna blow the trumpet of how Lampard manages to outsmart Manager X, Y, Z after notable wins, then can we do the same when he gets outsmarted by Manager X, Y, Z after notable losses and not get "shot" at? Because we have had some bad losses this season and some were to very average managers...

TBH, we'll see in the upcoming games with Mount and the rest. We have produced two of our better performances this season against Spurs. Did we play well today because it was Spurs? The last time we beat them, we lost Southampton, beat Arsenal and then drew with Brighton etc. The upcoming performances and games will tell us whether this is a start of the recovery or just another false dawn.

Can we play Spurs every week? Two of our best performances have come against them this season!

When did we face Sarri? You might be right but as you alluded to, Lampard will need to do that consistently to be a top coach. Doing it for one game here and there doesn't cut it, does it? I mean, any average manager can have their day. Hodgson, for example, has masterminded some excellent wins against the big teams with smaller teams but you wouldn't say he's a top coach would you, especially after his time at Liverpool? Also IIRC, you said that Mourinho is basically a yesterday manager, a manager past it (or something along those lines) and if so, not sure what's the weight here that Lampard managed to out thought him. The performance and win at Ajax were good, I'll say that, but as I mentioned it back then, Ajax have a poor recent home record in the Champions League. It was their away form that got them to the semis last season.

As many are saying on Twitter, we're gonna need VAR to VAR the VAR...

So far, so good but it's also all rather familiar. Playing well, dominating the opposition, creating chances but not making the dominance count...

Giroud would have put away the left footed shot that Batshuayi missed in the first half against United... #justsaying
