Aston Villa 2-1 Leicester City post match thread

[mrfuse]

The problem with VAR (well, one of the problems) is that when the ref is called over to the monitor, they are shown one angle at ultra slowed down speed.

Well in this case they didn't need the ref to look at the monitor just read the rules.

Living in Leicestershire, surrounded by Leicester fans… this makes me very happy

Same for me Chris. I was sat next to Brendan Rodgers’ son today, he didn’t look very happy by the end.

A quick glance at a Leicester forum, and they almost unanimously want him out.

Brendan, obviously. I imagine they don't have strong opinions on his son.

I'm not really a "know your place in the pyramid" type, but that seems a little unreasonable to me.

Really entertaining game. Good performance against a decent side. Obviously they’ll have spells of possession but they rarely threatened our keeper. McGinn was fantastic today. That one pass to play Ollie in really deserved to have a goal to finish it off.

Agreed - every club needs a wanker in the team giving it the big un.

Seems a bit harsh to me too as Leicester looked a pretty good side to me today.

Yeah SJM was superb. That instance in the 2nd half when he hassled Ndidi into losing possession, only for Oliver to be fooled by Ndidi's theatrical fall, was brilliant.

Pretty sure they were of a similar mind after we beat them at their place last season. I guess they've had poor finishes to the last couple of seasons, so maybe not that surprising.

[dave shelley]

Great result, seems the players are buying into Gerrard's methods in a big way.  Keep it up lads.

That disallowed goal worked a treat.It fired up the crowd with some excellent Schmeichel shithousery.As good as the Everton match for atmosphere .

I have no doubt they do. They wanted Ranieri out 6 months after he managed them to the biggest Sporting achievement of my lifetime.

Mings fully in control of Schmeichel there.

Yep, pretty astounded that obviously neither of them knew the rules.

I was worried they were going to VAR that
