No it went up well before the shot

This is what i dont understand. Surely you cant stick it in the net after the flags gone up then challenge the linos decision? Many times players have pulled up or not finished the play because of a flag. Should we bd ignoring the flag and scoring goals everytime now snd then pushing for var?

Of course you can. If the ref blows the whistle its a different matter. You play to the whistle, it's schoolboy stuff if you don't.

We're going to score plenty at OT.

Have to factor in how they raise their game for certain matches though. Leicester and Liverpool both probably thought similar and both only walked away from there with a point. I don't think they have the potential to beat us comprehensively, but they probably have the potential to not make things easy for us still.

Utd beat Leicester at home 1-0, which kinda reinforces your point.

Oh shit yeah you're right, had it as 1-1 in my head for some reason. Indeed though, every game in the PL has the potential to be difficult regardless of the state of opposition IMO. Everton had lost to a poor Norwich at home but still pushed Leicester all the way on their own turf.

agree, especially when they will be playing against a side now coached by an unpopular ex-manager/coach.

Definitely...something that might work in our favour is the 24 hrs extra rest we've had.

I've yet to see Villa go a game where they dont concede a goal that has come from them losing possesion when they're piss balling about with it in or around their own goal area. Need to stop that I think. That said its a common problem these days.

Not too upset by that, would prefer Leicester to win it rather than the scouse fuks. Lesser of 2 evils. Great United dropped points in a 6/10 gimme.
I hate Leicester as much as I hate Liverpool. Fair play to them to win a league title in recent times. But their fans are so entitled to be in the elite, which they really are not, I just cannot stand them. They will not be keeping quiet this season.

Always prefer Man City to win every league title if it cannot be us than any of the other teams.

Don't want Leicester to do well as the pub I drink in on Sundays is a Leicester pub. Their fans only turn up in any sort of numbers when they are doing particularly well.

The few that turn up regularly are all right but the masses are complete bellends.

Usually you would say Citys next 4/5 are winnable for them but based on the form they have showed recently they have a trickly little period coming up.
