Was just watching the highlights again, couple of observations that didn’t particularly notice at the time, Hojberg had a great game, was involved a lot in big plays either side of pitch. Sanchez was as passionate as anyone end of match, makes you want things to come good for him. Conte is definitely getting max out of this squad, players like Davies, Winks and now even Doherty look very decent, imagine what he could do for us if backed! Bergwijn goal at end top notch, didn’t buckle with Schmeichel right on top of him. Looking forward to Chelsea now, fancy we might actually give them a game this time!

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.

Neither of those pair of idiots are worth listening to, the two Robbies on the other hand know PL footie.

Well, that certainly answered those who were moaning about the lack of creativity and asking where the goals will come from. Yes, we need 'better' players but Conte is getting a tune out of what he's got and setting us up in such a way that we CAN create chances and score goals despite those issues. It's obviously a work in progress, we'll have some downs at some point but overall, what we're seeing is hugely positive. And best of all, we're starting to love it again (y)

The opening forty five minutes were the best we have played all season. Outstanding passing and movement.

Maddison's face at the final whistle was worth the cost of admission alone.

Leicester used to drop points late in the season. Now they’ve progressed to dropping points late in games.

Thoroughly deserved result which should have been in no doubt by half time. Fantastic team work throughout the game. Conte is working miracles.

Can’t lie I really thought Skipp Winks Hojbjerg was going to be unbelievably stodgy. Somehow that midfield produced the highest Xg in a PL game for 10 years. I mean I don’t to go overboard but that really was genius of Conte playing Skipp and Hojbjerg more advanced with Winks as the pivot.

Every time we beat them it will be payback for that **** Vardy winning the most ridiculous penalty last year when he wrapped his arm round Sanchez's and fell over. One of the most ludicrous decisions I've ever seen.

I turned it of at 94:30, furious that we were losing a game we dominated. 10 minutes later I got a text from a mate saying "lucky Spurs"....

Went out to watch the game at this restaurant/bar for the first time since covid... The same place we watched the Ajax comeback.... With 8 mins to go we still believed.... Still can't believe it happened again there.

Deserved the win. Was great to see HK back to somewhere near his best too and very very happy for SB.
