Match Threads Leicester Vs Spurs

[hughy]

Hojbjerg was holding Bergwijn back desperately to stop him

That's the sort of thing my mum would do when I'm over excited.

Rodger’s is a proper arrogant twat

Making out like they played amazingly and harsh done by. If they’d won it would have been daylight robbery.

Our 2 best performances have been with a 3-5-2 (today and Liverpool) I think it’s telling and suits the players we have in our squad. We are able to control the midfield with the extra man in there compensating for our lack of quality in there, and more often than not gives Kane someone in his vicinity centrally, the WF tend to get pulled out wide too much in a 3 and leave Kane isolated

Hopefully we persevere with this set up for the foreseeable

The way Kane and Bergwjyn grab the ball out the net after the equaliser ?

Bergwijn scored more PL goals in about 30 seconds than Lo Celso has for us in the PL since he joined us in 2019. Get rid

How am I going to tell my (non-existant) kids we win this game?! Luckily my pull out game is on King Arthur levels, so this predicament will never arise. But still, bloody mental!!

 

[Finchyid]

Unbelievable scenes.. people were horizontal in the stands. Deserved to win, kane was unreal.

 

[sidford]

Kane and Stevie going to get the ball out of Leicesters net at 2-2 knowing only seconds left was brilliant & shows a mentality that hasn't always been there.

That South London lot would still be giving loads in front of their fans and dancing/ doing handshakes delighted that they got a point where we showed proper desire to go and win the match.

The players have let us down alot the past 3 years but tonight is a damn fine start to repaying us

 

[Nice One Cyril]

That record will never be broken

If it is, it will be us that breaks it ?

 

[ShelfWatcher]

Also, what exactly do they think it is that's "happened again"?

Given our history at the King Power is literally of fucking them over with record breaking away wins. Fucking idiots.

Yep, it's so enjoyable over on Foxes talk. Apparently we've got an empty trophy cabinet, last time I looked ours had 17 in it compared to their 5
Which part of absolutely fucking brain dead stupid sums them up, I'm not quite sure ?

What a difference 1 Min 27 secs makes

Absolutely agree. But we kinda need a midfielder or two to cover that, which is maybe why it hasn't been played that much? Just a guess, but with Alli more or less out of the picture, we have no fourth midfielder. And ideally we'd want at least 5 if we play a 3.

Back to the game though, was absolutely ecstatic for that winner! Instantly reminiscent of the Ajax game. Managed to finish service early (work in the kitchen), and watch the final 6 minutes. Was ready for another one of those days after I heard about the 2-1 goal, but wow, what a win that was. Bergwijn can not go anywhere. Conte must be locked on an ironclad contract forever. This is absolutely amazing!

Does your mum always watch!

Does your mum always watch!

Every time. My dad too when he's awake.

Edit: waiiiiit a minute!

 

[spursbhoy67]

As I said earlier, if people want to know what life is like as a Spurs fan show them this game.

Unreal! A bit of Ajax about this one.

COYS!

The way Kane and Bergwjyn grab the ball out the net after the equaliser ?

I meant to highlight that too. That speaks to the mentality in the team. Looking for the win rather than being happy with the draw. Would not have happened under Nuno. That mentality to play to the final whistle is coming from Conte.

 

[Hotspur33]

Stop doing this. You all say we are not good enough. You all say we need better players. You all see how badly Doherty, Winks etc have played in 95% of the games they have played for us. Then... that one day they exceed our very low expectations everyone is a fan boy ??

I'm not a fanboy of Doherty. My argument is simply that, in Conte's system, we need productivity out of our wing backs. And Doherty's main strength is the intelligent runs he makes. And is more of a threat than Emerson.

 

[13VanDerBale13]

I love how Gio copies Lucas & tries to find a guard to jump on ?

 

[easley91]

Stevie's the real deal now

4.49 xg tonight. Highest I've ever seen. To put that into context, england beating San Marino 10-0 was 4.25 xg

Thanks for sharing that.

Watching it in the States I was embarrassed after the game listening to Higginbottom and Tim Howard, both say that Leicester were very good and unlucky to lose against a below par Spurs team.

They apparently weren't watching the same game as their own commentators, who made a point to say it had been Spurs' game to win, the whole time. The fact that the Foxes were on course to get 3 points out of it was a joke. They had not been the better team whatsoever.

We deserved that.
