Leicester fans singing "just like Leicester your city is blue" is pretty hilarious given that they have several United youth products in their team (Drinkwater, James, Simpson, De Laet). I hope they win the title, but I also hope they get crushed today.

Just feels like Leicester has to win this in injury time.

Oliver fatas it up again.

ALWAYS bottles the big decision.

Yeah that was obviously a penalty. Should really have replay in those instances.

Well go Spurs tomorrow. Would be kinda lame for Leicester to win the league sitting on their couches.

Ref should have let Leicester play out that free kick at the end since United took away a counter

1. No it wasn't.
2. It wasn't a straight red. Drinkwater was tugging all game. First yellow was for the same.

Totally a flop, he went down really easy.

I didn't know it was a second yellow, I came back to the match right after he go sent off and had to Google a replay. Second yellow, fine, ref got it spot on

I hope Fellaini gets a violent conduct so that I never have to see this dirty ####### in a United shirt again. For some reason I thought of the James Neal AMA today because I'd like to ask Fellaini a similar question. "If Neymar, Suarez and Messi run at you and you only have two elbows, which one is the one to get kneed?"

You kidding? He's still trying to cross the ball even as he is falling. And bear in mind that is slo mo.

I don't see any Leicester players protesting a flop.

Contact outside the box. He stumbles a few steps. Definitely a foul. I think he would have stayed up had he not caught his foot on the 3rd or 4th step on the ground. OK you're right, not a flop, just bad luck he didn't stay on his feet

Watch the video.
The bit where Drinkwater's left arm tugs Martial's right shoulder.
Then look where Martial's feet are.
I don't know what else to say.

Anyways, doesn't take away from that it was just another clueless performance. That event clouds that they had a full half to try and score to maintain a push for top 4 and didn't create one decent chance.

Not a chance. Even the commentators noted that Huth and whoever else were in no rush to make their way down field. If they're done playing, then that's their issue.

Are you a Leicester supporter or Johnny-come-lately though? I don't recall you cheering them on all season and I would think a Foxes supporter would've been excited all season.

I've never had a Premier League team, just a neutral who wants to see Leicester do the impossible.

The one foot is on the line of the box and the other is out. Does the line count? (I've always thought no but I confess that I don't actually no for certain). I'm genuinely curious now. Either way an almost impossible decision for the ref, one set of fans would have hated it either way.

In his defence he was reacting to a sexual assault.

Southampton now up 3-1 against City. Too bad that United bottled it today after a great start because top 4 would have still been possible with a win.
