Mignolet's saved 7 of 15 penalties faced in the PL since he joined Liverpool. That's not blind luck.

Every game I've watched of Leicester this season they've given a good account of themselves. Enjoyable to watch under Shakespeare.

Their big problem is that they're good against the top teams and still usually lose, and not good enough at finishing off the teams around and below them.

Just watched the Man City highlights. Why don't teams defend like that against us? If they did, we'd score 5 a game too.

Palace got at their defence a couple of times in the first half so a decent team will give them a good game, when they finally play one.

Everton and West Ham did defend like that, we just get Alli tripping over the ball, Kane shooting instead of playing better placed players in and Sissoko instead of De Bruyne as an 8.

Just wondering but how in the hell did that Knockeart fella not make it at f*cking Leicester? In all the games I have seen he has looked very useful and a hell of a lot smarter than most PL widemen.

edit: his last tackle excepted.

He used to play for Leicester before they got Mahrez if I recall.

He did, on their way up but then they recruited a crapload of gash on top of him. Weird. I believe i remember hearing that his play was poor during his fathers illness (and ultimate death). Maybe I'm making that up.
