Our squad to be good enough to handle it and still provide a bit of entertainment, would be niceGiven the injuries great result. Stop moaning about the performance with so many absentees what the feck did people expect?

I thought Fred was actually decent when he came on. Looked lively.Trash performance but a big 3 points given the starting 11, I thought Maguire and AWB were easily the standouts and really kept Leicester from getting much joy in the 2nd half where we offered absolutely nothing. McTominay grafted hard but his lack of quality on the ball is an issue when he's supposed to the attacking CM in the midfield 2. The usual suspects were poor as they often are, the best part of the game was the scrap in the corner at the end.
I mean everyone's a good side when they play against us - Palace (beaten 4-0 today) and Wolves (shipped 5 at home today) too.Leicester are a good side, i'm happy with the win.
This. If anyones depressed by that performance, just look at leicester forums and you'll feel better. (hint: they are saying almost the exact same things about rodgers as we are about Ole)A win and clean sheet.
For all Leicester's bluster, they were outfought by a rag tag midfield. Mct was superb- he was our midfield.
Maguire, imperious at the back. Forwards worked hard in a game of no clear cut chances.
We finally scored a penalty. Let's not underestimate the bottle he had, and he hit the bar with a brilliant free kick
Too obvious..... Nice try though.I am definitely going to stop watching Manchester United. Wtf. This is terrible, terrible. Why do we suck so much? I mean this is outrageous how pathetic we were over last 4 weeks. Build the team from ground up. Get rid of all the players, all the coaches, get relegated and let's start fresh. This is just unbearable. I am not seeing any silver lining. I am actually smelling a disaster of a season.
How does Leicester dominate possession and look so dangerous against us when we are at home? I think this team actually will not get to spring in Europe League unless something drastically changes.
It's the midfield that's the big problem. It needed addressing in the transfer window even Stevie Wonder could see that.McGuire and Lindelöf very solid in the second half when they were under a lot of pressure at times.
Very worrying how little we create in terms of scoring chances and shots on target etc.
Except Chelsea.I mean everyone's a good side when they play against us - Palace (beaten 4-0 today) and Wolves (shipped 5 at home today) too.
Yep. Leicester wanted to counter attack us at home, so we didn't set up to attack. Made them a lot less threatening, even after Ayote came on to support Vardy.Very good win. We kept Leicester silent lot of time even though Leicester hade more ball and we had lot of injuries. Happy with the win, happy with the performence. Best were McTominay followed by Young and Maguire.
Got to give credit to Solskjaer once more for tactical setup and for the subs. I hope that his start this year keeps on and that he can silence anti-Solskjaer brigade. At least this week.
Lucky? How?Boring game, we offered nothing. Very lucky to have 3 points.
See aboveLucky win we were shit.
What team doesn't waste a bit of time in added time protecting a 1-0 lead? Errr. all of themShit team wasting time like it is blackpool or something like that
Oh and you, can do one!I am definitely going to stop watching Manchester United. Wtf. This is terrible, terrible. Why do we suck so much?

Fred was surprising. Hasn’t had any game time in ages yet looked sharp. Pogba - Mctominay - Fred with Pogba pushing forward might be our ticket.I thought Fred was actually decent when he came on. Looked lively.
Midfield is a big issue for us though. I wonder whether Pogba - Mctominay - Fred midfield would actually be best for us. I can't see how Andreas, Lingard or Matic deserve to be the third midfielder.
Agreed. He was excellent.Did Vardy play? Maguire really was brilliant once again, to think how many people were doubting his quality in the summer.
Yeah, looked like the plan was to protect the back four as much as possible, and they succeeded in that. Attacking wise, we were poor. It does not help that Matic was crap, and Mata and Periera could barely hold on to the ball.I thought the midfield was quite good in stopping Leicester. They never had control of the midfield and never really allowed to attack our defenders which has happened a hundred times in the last three games. Attacking wise, yeah that just didn’t happen.
He's no loss to Newcastle, uselessYep. Leicester wanted to counter attack us at home, so we didn't set up to attack. Made them a lot less threatening, even after Ayote came on to support Vardy.
