Leicester are making this a difficult watch and not by playing a good tactical low block, just by standing like mannequins taking up space. A professiinal job of keeping the ball moving and the goals will come. I’d be fuming if I were a Leicester fan in a must win game and not laying a glove on a team with a dubious home record. Not sure how van Nistelrooy is still there. They would have been better off keeping Cooper.

Absolute stroll in the park this. I’ll take a ‘boring’ 2-0 where we are passing it around with ease. Yes the oppo are gash but this is what we needed from a home performance against a team that sits back. Getting that second goal was a nice little bonus to make it comfortable. I should think it’s way beyond them already as they haven’t looked like coming close to threatening us but a third would be nice to kill it off. Get Ferguson a couple of chances to open his account.

That feeling that things are too easy and we’re going to fuck up isn’t there. I’m think 4-0 at FT. 

[zebthecat]

This is looking far too easy for my liking.

[Keep dreaming]

That was a strange and somewhat unusual first half at home.
65% possession, hardly breaking a sweat and leading by two goals......

Leicester are fucking gash, but full credit to Potter and team for keeping the cool and the ball....

Quite a weird feeling watching us dominate a game but god Leicester are awful. They would probably do better with their title winning team the age they are now!

[pdcwhu]

Yessssssssss Hazzzzzzzzz 

[Sydney_Iron]

That will knock the stuffing out of them just before HT.

Mind it isn't over, lets not sit back and relax just yet, need to keep pressing and chasing down every ball and bang in a few more.

I have Marc Albrighton as my co-commentator 

Bit hard on the ears.

I still hope to see Ferguson at the start of the second half. Take bowen off to keep minutes off his legs, and let the sharks feed.

[goose]

2-0 a goal befitting the standard of the game lol

Now be professional and don’t give them a sniff.

[kylay]

We need to be more ruthless.

 

 

I suspect we will be next half. It's easy to say now but I think Potter got this exactly right to have the continuity and consistency of the same lineup even if it isn't as attacking as we would like

And there's 2.

[RootsRadical]

YES Boweeeen 

[ironsofcanada]

We need to be more ruthless.

Looks like Leicester are just here to keep the score respectful. For a team losing they are sitting way too deep.

Looks like they’re showing us some respect,  some might argue a little too much.

Gotta think that the weird looking Van Nistleroy will change it up at half time.

Crowd seems quiet, if I’m a Leicester fan I’d be livid with this effort.

[goose]

Early days but some encouraging signs of a real desire to win the ball back when we lose it.

[pdcwhu]

Thank fuck Tomas is back

 

[pdcwhu]

Yessssssssss Hazzzzzzzzz 

[RootsRadical]

10 goals last season, 6 so far this season and still some on here call for him to be dropped every week.

[goose]

TNT having a right pop at Leicester, I don’t think they have been bad. This game is far from over.

[Tricky Trev 69]

Hi does anyone have a working feed thanks.

[Nurse Ratched]

3-1 for me

4-0

[goose]

I was convinced VAR would chalk that off.
1-0 up without really having to do much of anything yet.

[Sydney_Iron]

Who else but Super Tom (Mk2)
