IF?
Leicester is going to lay spanking on us mate, and I don't think the match will particularly close.

Solid performance by Leicester City. With their success so far this year and the winning streak for Chelsea going on right now I'm worried Arsenal will have to win the Europa League to find themselves in the CL...

Vardy the first player to 10 goals.
Tielemans was such a good buy, he's really revitalized himself at Leicester. Soyuncu continues to be one of, if not the best, performing defenders this year. Luck...
Look at all this luck in the build up to this goal.

Leicester is clearly the better team in form and on paper, so I definitely expect them to win.

On paper Arsenal is the third best team in the league, but considering the manager, I expect us to lose yes. There is no way Leicester is a top 5 team in the PL on paper, their success is largely due to Brendan Rogers being absolutely brilliant.

Arsenal is as close to 17th place as they are to the top 4. They should worry about the the teams right behind them in the standings as much as the teams above them.

Leicester's midfield and defense is better than Arsenal's. The only place Arsenal is better is in their attacking options.

lol Atkinson.
Waited like 30 seconds to even call the foul and then gives a yellow for it.
If it's bad enough for a yellow you shouldn't' need to wait so long to blow your whistle.

Massive difference for sure. Jorginho made a ton of pass last year, but they were mostly back or side passes to the defenders. He was expected to essentially slowly run in a straight line in his fixed position and stay in the formation for the entire game, it was easy to defend and it left him badly exposed when teams countered against us. Now he's expected to move a lot to support the attack and defense, and he has way more passing freedom. The result has been that he was been much more effective and such a better player.

On paper Arsenal have a better defence fairly easially, the defensive structure as a unit obviously is not as good though . The midfielders are fairly even I would say.
A combined 11 based on ability, not form could look like
Leno
Bellerin - Holding - Söyüncü - Tierney
Tielemans - Torriera - Madisson
Pepe - Lacazette - Aubameyang

Not a chance Leno or Bellerin are starting over Schmichel or Periera. Holding or Evans is at best a toss up with Evans looking the better choice now.
I would put Vardy over Lacazette easily in that formation as well.

Ricardo is better than Bellerin. Evans and Holding are about even in ability, with Evans in better form right now. Soyuncu is obvious. Tierney needs to prove his ability in the EPL before you can even argue to slot him over Chilwell, who has proven his quality. Leno hasn't been better than Schmeichel this season.
Ndidi, Tielemans, and Maddison are better than anyone Arsenal is playing right now.
Vardy is definitely better than one of Pepe or Lacazette, but none of Leicester's other attackers are.

VAR is so bad lol.
Made the decision and then decided to go back and look for another 30 seconds just to change nothing.

Yea I have no idea what the VAR standard is anymore.
It was the exact same type of play. There was contact, but nowhere near enough to cause the fall it did. Pretty standard no pen, no dive call.

So dumb to not let the on-field official look at the review with the off-field on radio and make a determination together.

Yea but that would slow the game down, unlike the current standard that is lightning fast....lol
