lol, Otamendi

he is approaching bobblehead bad

and Pep is a FOOL to think Fernandinho at 34yo (35 before the season ends) and 97% of his career as a MF is a CB

shame we lost to this lot

finally Mane booked

As sensational as Leicester have been this season, there's still a pretty massive gulf in class between them and City when City are in form. And this is without their CB's, without David Silva, and without Aguero. Maddison and Tielemans have literally done nothing this half. Barely a touch between them.

This match is really another illustration of the big difference between us and City. Any given weekend they can have a different attacker dominating. One match Sterling is unstoppable, another KDB, and another Mahrez or Aguero. We only have one reliable goal scorer.

Though whichever way this result goes unless we start getting things together and get back to a winning run no point talking about catching either of them up.

Firmino off the post

I'm not even thinking about either of these two anymore. It's all about staving off what's behind us.

If we lose again tomorrow I think we're in big trouble.
