So far absolutely nothing from Alexis and Ozil. Our two match winners have been absent.

Coq looks rusty but is so much better than Flamini. Ramsey is obviously being told to play conservatively. Hopefully the goal will free him up to get forward.

I think it was absolutely a penalty. So I'm not sure about the whole million years thing.

Would've been nice to get the Kante handball though.

He was very good.

If the ref calls the foul on Morgan that goal never happens

Arsenal with several players walking a fine line in the 2nd half

It was a misstimed challenge and vardy made a meal of it. But that's the risk you take making a tackle inside the 18.

Can't wait until Arsenal has 80% possession in the 2nd half and loses 2-0

Yeah the more I look at it the more I see what Vardy was doing. He made sure to initiate the contact. But it's a penalty. Monreal stuck a foot in, didn't win the ball. Don't see how you don't call that. If we won that challenge on our end id be screaming for a pen.

Not a pk and not only that there should have been a foul called on the ozil/Morgan challenge in the build up to that. Again Leicester continuing with the longest lucky streak I've ever seen.

I have no horse in this race but idk how Arsenal haven't scored yet. Way better team on all fronts but I'll say it one last time Leicester are the luckiest team ever.

The only good player on Leicester is Konte.

Kante handball, plus Giroud being held on every corner. I wish refs would crack down on that crap defenders pull in the box on corners.

Absolutely correct PK. Monreal initiated the contact by sticking his leg out. He doesn't stick his leg out, then there is no contact. That is a high risk, low reward challenge for any defender to do that.

Monreal wasn't moving and if anything was trying to move out of Vardy's way because he saw what he was doing. Vardy initiated contact. That's pretty obvious.

If that was a pk then the handball was too. He stopped the ball from advancing to another player with his hand. That should be called every time. Oh and the no call on Giroud. That's called anywhere else on the field and was called yesterday as a pk.

Penalty was bullshite in my opinion. Here's to hoping Giroud can stay onside in the 2nd half

If the ref calls it a dive why is he not showing yellow?

Yeah but why no pk? Vardy went down easy and there was contact??? Sucks Leicester were screwed by the ref like that. And in such a big game. Ref should have the courage to make the call
