Pre game my lad texted me to say how much he has looked forward to this fixture but now that it was here it did not really interest him . We could not go to the game and it had no bearing on our seasonHe came to mine to watch it and bythe final whistle we were leaping around the room like we had just won the leagueWhat a result , what a performance Ok the stats suggest we should have lost by 4 or 5 goals but, in reality as well as the goals we had the best clearest chance ( Raph clean through) - they huffed and puffed but only created half chances as we were steadfast on our defence.Personally I thought the red was harsh ( stamp by sterling looks just as bad on SLO mo, plus late taking out of Raph) but unlike when Arsenal benefited from getting a red it just put us under the cosh, and how we responded Every man jack of them put themselves on the line and gave their all - and all without resorting to time wasting or general shit housing - we tried to play football and repel wave after wave. Sure we rode our luck and relied on their profligacy that on another day would have cost us , but we did it with style and still tried to win it So when Alioski played it through to Dallas to finish with aplomb it was deserved- the fact that KP was given man of the match with Dallas a very close second rather than Meslier in a game when they claimed to have 21 shots or whatever shows how dangerous those shots were (or weren’t)So put Man City in the list with Leicester as teams at the top who we have beatenA great dayDave _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org
