Fair play, Leicester.

Worthy winners.

Hope they win it.

It's simple, really.

Leicester do the simple things well, positioning, blocking, tackling, passing.

We don't.

Yes, but the work rate is key too, watch the second goal it's borne out of a superior work rate, belief too.

This is one of the worst posts I've seen on this forum in long time.

Honestly, you are off your rocker.

Leicester's whole style of play is counter-attack. For whatever possession Liverpool have had they haven't had a sniff on goal. Leicester have out-muscled them, been better in the air, won the majority of 50/50s, defended better, used the space on the pitch to better effect.

Dominated? Stop being a pissy sore loser.


Edit: I just looked up the possession too; 64:36 in favour of Leicester. Where is this domination you are referring to?

3 games plus extra time and Liverpool haven't looked like scoring

Yes your right in everything you say. I apologize for getting it wrong.

Oh how we love to let the ball bounce

absolute rubbish. loads of possession, nothing at all to show for it. Massive changes needed. £37million worth of centre backs on the pitch - not worth f**king nothing if they cant read the game. Wholesale changes needed, this squad is nowhere near its pricetag.

Im off and unsubscribing this before the man utd trolls come in with their insightful knowledge of a game they didnt watch (that or they ignored the utd game in order to focus on liverpool losing, which honestly wouldnt surprise me)

Cannot be doubted now

Eveybody thought they would fall off but they haven't

Excellent counter attacking football has prevailed

Vardy is a beast, a great story to be told if they manage to pull off the impossible and win the league

Other way around there according to BBC 64% to LFC possession wise...

Every cloud.

Liverpool V United
Europa League final
Winner takes it all

Have you seen some of the sides left in the Europa League? Dortmund, Fiorentina, Napoli, Spurs, Sevilla, Athletic Bilbao, Sporting Lisbon, Marseille. I'd be amazed if either of them reached the final.

BorneTobyWilde

Surprised Man City didn't do they usual in transfer window, buy a rivals best player and stick him in reserves then loan him.
City concentrate as much on strengthening themselves as much as they do on weakening their rivals.

You might want to edit your post so. It's not factually accurate.

Sky sports also has Liverpool at 63.5% so FotMob likely to be wrong....

i watched the game (did you?) and yeah, would have been about 64% possession for Liverpool. Which is great, we did so much with it. You should have seen the stuff we were doing, short corners to nowhere, random shots by LUCAS THE GOALMACHINE and of course, who can forget aimless runs by Lallana

And you thought Lecister had twice the possession that liverpool. I am beginning to doubt your superior knowledge of football

England actually look a threat for the Euros

Interesting to see who leads the line in attack

Rooney on form
Vardy on form

I found a match summary for you
http://www.football365.com/news/man-united-3-0-stoke-thats-entertainment

sounds like a great game if you are a man utd fan! rooney and martial with a goal and assist each, nice. But well, you had your priorities in order. started supporting utd in the 90s yeah?

He ain't a United fan afaik, at least not the Manchester one anyway.

Good solid win for Leicester. They are contenders for sure. That was a win that's typical of a title winning team. A solid, comfortable win while not at their best over a mid table team that tried make it as hard as possible for them and in fairness, Liverpool actually had a few chances themselves, particularly before Vardy scored.

Leicester's superior quality told on the night though. Very interesting to see Arsenal weren't able to win a similar type of fixture tonight.

Liverpool had a lot of possession but did very little with it. Leicester looked more likely to score throughout with Mig making good saves from Okazaki and Mahrez in the first half. Possession means nothing if you can't score. Leicester were deserved victors.

Actually forgot to add Kane

Rooney is a cert IMO

But defiantly England can play a 4-4-2 with Rooney up front with either Vardy or Kane along side

They wont do anything at the tournament qf at a push. England will do what they always do stick with the core of players that continually fail to deliver at tournaments. There best bet would be to go with kane, vardy, alli lads with confidence and no baggage. Id expect maybe one of them will start. On tonight no surprise with the result leicester are an excellent team with a game plan and players that suit that plan. I really hope they can win the league. 14 games left if they get 20 pts from them that should be enough for top 4.

They won't be a threat. Yeah, the players are looking decent, but you got to remember that this is the poorest PL there has been in a long, long time. Their form is relative to the quality they're up against.

And, if they're to have any chance in the Euros, they're gonna need to play three in the middle. Best of luck to Hodgson making a decision between Rooney, Kane and Vardy!

Thanks for the laugh this morn
England, with their squad and manager, are absolutely no threat in the Euros!
