Is that going to be part of the phrase of the week like describing stuff as poverty was?

Alright then, some Leicester fan wrote that they had in one of the threads here, you'd think they'd know, but I guess not.The formation, system and players they used in that game were exactly the same as what they have been using all season.
In fact the only difference between the game we beat them and them v city this weekend is the fullbacks have changed.
We won with a clean sheet & really weren't troubled too much. What more do we want. It's about results now. Bournemouth beat both UTD. & Chelsea. If you're wanting champagne football for 90 mins as well then you're being a very hard task master . This was no gimme but we came through it respectably.
Its nothing to do with my expectations, but just look at how convincing Leicester City are as a team at the moment. They have had 3 solid home wins on the trot without conceding a goal, and two of those were against pool and city. Thats what you do when you are gunning for the league.
EDIT: My bad, read the post wrong.
Small point, but Aguero made it 3-1, and during the last 5-10 minutes (including extra-time) City had a several good opportunities, Leiecester were burnt out by then and holding on.
If we can force them to press consistently throughout the game, and come out unscathed with Leicester tired, then the final 15 minutes should be ours.
Unfortunately, the Emirates crowd gets frustrated easily, and against a resolute defense, and a hard-working press, I can already see the Alexis' arms thrown in the air and the back-chat from Mesut.
