Gray to thank indeed. The first Leicester player willing to run at a defender and look what happens.

Stop giving away silly fouls

It won't take arsenal long to get through those

Erm, has everyone forgotten how to pass a football?

Think they've forgotten how to play football

Decent Point, feel it could have been more but also could have been a whole lot worse.

A point is ok given the game overall. Why do we have to keep on giving teams easy goals though?

1st half could have been 3-1
Said at the beginning I'd be happy with a point
But feel we lost 2 points

Good result, but what on earth was that last 8 minutes? Probably the most frustrated I've been all season watching that.

Probably a fair result, as you were the better side in the 2nd half even before the sending off, but I do think we would have seen the game out with 11 men on the pitch. Was tearing my hair out at the chances we missed in the first 45, though.

Can't complain about the red card, although there was no malice in it. Nketiah just misjudged the flight of the ball and mistimed his challenge.

Good luck in your quest to get CL football, hope you get it

Yeah I’ll take that point all day long

It was ridiculous that we just forgot how to pass a ball!

That aside, a point is an ok result after that shambles of a first half.

I hope Rodgers has learned that Fuchs has to play the next game for balance in a 4 or 5.

Overall I’ll take that point.

Have to remember we’re without 2 huge players for us - the clubs failure to invest in January has badly caught up with the team. United will claw it back to a point and then it’s a case of keeping Wolves at bay and snatching 5th

So frustrating at times.

There are several things we keep doing now:
Silly, silly fouls. We looked best when we were harassing Chelsea in the cup game - hunting down players and moving onto the next rather than petulant little kicks. Perez is awful for it in particular.

A huge amount of our forward balls, even simple ones, go into the players’ feet rather than just in front of them. This sounds like a little thing, but like the fouls above - it puts a huge stress on our ability to build any momentum.

Thirdly, TOO many misplaced simple passes. Nothing wrong with looking for a through ball and missing out. But when you are playing a pass a few yards and it’s inaccurate on such a regular basis, again, it will just simple affect any chance of momentum and intent on the ball (and this was happening before Corona).

We could really do with Grealish having a worldie of a game on Thursday.

Heart palpitations are becoming a regular occurrence now

Yep, agree with all of that.

We have to be faster and more accurate with our passing. We’re so slow and predictable passing it side to side and doing that badly!

For me though it’s tactics and balance that needs sorting. Yes we’re missing players but too many players out of position and Albrighton should never play left back ever ever again!

Albrighton did well at left back
Because when he plays right back he normally gives away a penalty 🤔

Oh no are you baiting someone Diuds?

Terrible and very lucky to not have been 3-0 down at half time.

Want something positive to think about? Heres one - when was the last time we took 4 points off the Gunners?
