LEICESTER AWAY

Good to see Sanchez back on form and the sort of performance from Walcott that he should be producing regularly now.
On the negative side...Some woeful defending at times...and now the very real prospect of Arteta having a prolonged run as defensive mid :cry:

Agree, was very end to end, could have ended up anything as we missed so many chances.

We are still wide open in the centre of midfield and Ramsey was his usual performance of turning into trouble and giving away the ball. We do not have the strength, power or energy needed in centre mid at the moment.

Bellerin was virtually a winger 2nd half, Cech had a good game. Sanchez's third remided me of his cup final goal as he had no right to score form there really. Glad for Walcott, Sanchez and Giroud all getting on the scoresheet as will give each a confidence boost.

Defensively we still look somewhat unorganised, particularly at set pieces where several players don't go with their man, and we end up overloaded on the poor sod at the back post.

4th again :barscarf: were back, back where we belong :barscarf:

Great to see Theo on the score sheet. Is that 12 goals in 13 starts? :o heard it on TV; no idea if that's true, but fair play if it is.

Fantastic to see Sanchez bag a hat trick :barscarf: and Giroud needed that goal too; he looks miserable!

Great game; thoroughly entertaining 8)

Thought at the time that none of our players celebrated his goal with him ? Could be wrong (has happened once before)

Great result and a good performance although the expression "flat track bullies ' is ringing in my head!
Not sure but isn't that officially 'invincibles day'?

Excellent game - Two attacking teams solely focused on Winning - and not the negatives that maureen and the chavscum specialise in - with drama queens like fabregas or cowards like costacunto trying to get the opposing players sent off.

They were on top for the first 15 - 20 mins then we got into the game - and dominated most of the 2nd half...Theo getting better and better up front ( always knew he would with a decent run)...actually managed to hold the ball and play others in today...showed good strength - took his goal well...Alexis...well what can you say - Love the guy! - Rambo needs to be dropped and The Ox come in instead.

Can enjoy the rest of the week-end. :barscarf: :cheers: :barscarf:

I'd second that. Why retarded? What a pathetic comment that was.
