PL: Leicester City v Arsenal | Sunday, February 28 | KO: 12:00 UTC | BT Sport

[Lady_Gooner]

So we are leading. Didn’t see that coming

 

[Rex Stone]

How many more assists does Willian have to get before he’s considered good value as a free?

 

[Tir Na Nog]

Racist? Was there an incident? I’m not familiar

2-1 is flattering to Leicester, but that silly early goal we conceded woke us up.

We have been up for it since going 1-0 down. Pepe and Willian looking good.

 

[GDeep™]

So weird. You get guys like Carragher or Neville who love their ex sides and don’t even try to be impartial. Then you get the Arsenal legends who can’t wait to stick the knife in.

I think some of our pundits just don’t like Arteta-ball. They all loved and backed Wenger.

 

[kash2]

finally playing our best midfield and best attack bar Saka... Pepe to win this for us.

say a prayer for the elegant flair players.... football needs them.

 

[Mitch]

Pepe giving Thomas a torrid time, Thomas should have already een sent off for amount of fouls he has made.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Very good response we completely dominate the 1st half 75% possession. Now we got 45 min and will be not easy test Leicester not looking great

 

[2Smokeyy]

If you think about it, the game changed as soon as I started watching.

The players switched on as soon as they heard the news that the Great GDeep logged in.

 

[al-Ustaadh]

Makes you think about certain players, particularly Ødegaard and Bellerin.

Are they really supposed to be in our best eleven?

Ødegaard yes, Bellerin I’m not sure anymore given how much possession we get now. Think we should cash in and go for Bogle and/or Aarons.

 

[Sapient Hawk]

Would love to be a fly on Paul Tierney's wall to see him trying to explain to his Ref Whatsapp group what the **** just happened.

"You see, what with Less Mason on the ropes & looking not long for professional refereeing in general, I thought it would be best to get my affairs in order & even the score for Arsenal once. Hell, I do it for other teams every week, why not the team with the least breaks from referees in English football?"

@Macho

Your boy Pepe killing this young Leicester fullback...reminds me of Carragher at RB v Thierry

 

[Legend14]

Even if we were 3 goals ahead with this defence it’s not enough

Other than early error, defense is fine.

 

[MikeVinna]

If their LB is kept on after HT Pepe needs to be fed the ball as much as possible on the right.

We(Mikel) are definitely not that smart

 

[freeglennhelder2]

Nice one, personally i'd have wanted Pepe to take it, he's good at pens and he needs the confidence, but whatever

We scored to turn the game around but you are not entirely happy with the way it happened. Am I reading that right?

 

[Trilly]

Pepe has been playing well for a few months now, why has Arteta ditched him for the last month?

Shiny new toy on loan from Real Madrid. No other reason but that.

 

[Oxeki]

Watching Pepe abusing the Leicester RB is just sad. I'd be surprised if Rodgers doesn't hook him at half time.

 

[Trofton]

Other than early error, defense is fine.

As long as Mari is there it’s risky. Shocking bloke

 

[albakos]

When I saw the starting lineup, I expected us to be shocking, but then I think we played really well in this half.

Pepe is obviously pulling the strings and has been very good. Now for 2nd half, we need to ask him to target their leftback who is already on a yellow and use it to our advantage.

Willian has made some nice runs too, but his crosses (bar the assist) are still poor.

Unless Brenda switches things around drastically, we got this and we better not blow it up.

 

[Mo Britain]

Good half apart from the terrible gaffes for their goal.

Deservedly ahead. Decent performance by Willian, great penaly from Laca. Great worked corner for Luiz's goal. Rotated and it's working. Now put this to bed.

Hope ESR is ok?
