a little unfortunate not to get a draw yesterday.
Bobby Madley,what an infuriating referee (for both sides). I thought Sterling was clearly interfering for the first goal, swung a foot at it between the striker and the keeper but suppose thats a matter of opinion
good spot for the two touch penalty (i have now seen that twice at leicester games over 42 years watching!) but happily ignores the encroachment as most referees do
the fernandinho elbow i didn't think there was any intent, but on another day we get a luckier break there too
still,we gave it a good go in the second half, didn't die wondering and conisdering we were missing huth, morgan,drinkwater did ok
lovely goal too
tottenham and bournemouth at home to end the season and we are running out of players.....will take a win against bournemouth and 46 points

All fair comments I think from your perspective.
Madley was awful. Seems out of his depth and I agree infuriating for both sides.
I think the Silva goal is a tough one. Raheem was marginally offside, as evidenced by the camera, but looking at the front on pictures, Kasper was IMO not unsighted. Sterling obviously has a swipe at the ball, didn't appear to touch it, but does that mean interference? The rule I've seen quoted today is "clearly attempting to play a ball which is close to him when this action
impacts
on an opponent or making an obvious action which
clearly impacts
on the ability of an opponent to play the ball" So the argument goes Sterling's swipe had no impact: Kasper had already been done and was not unsighted by Raheem. Also, I've read that both Halsey and O'Gallagher came out on foreign broadcasts saying it was a good goal! Complicated to say the least
Agree easily could have been a different result. I thought City were ok to good 1st half but the 2nd half was a struggle.
Tighty, you might like these stats - xG on the site I use was 2.22 v 1.94 and an xGD in Man City's favour of only 0.28. In xGD terms that is the 2nd best performance by an away side at the Etihad in the league this season and the 7th best by any side against us home and away. The xGD in the reverse fixture was 1.24 in Leicester's favour - the highest xGD against City this season.

The run to the title last season seemed to mature Schmeichel when before he always probably gave off that sense of being a liability at times? That a fair statement?

probably the season before that "the great escape" under Pearson, he assumed more of a leadership role and really delivered consistently
he reached his potential as a keeper and as a team member and he was great last year but even better this year in a team that didn't defend consistently well in front of him,minus Kante, until Ndidi arrived
but yes, essentially you are correct

Cheers for the response. Always nice to see a keeper go up another gear or two when you label (well i did at least) them as only ever being capable of so much.

Kante leaving seemed massive for the club. Is there a player who you would hold in similar regard that you fear will leave in the Summer? Are you expecting a lot of players to leave?

Schmeichel is the biggest fear,leadership/dressing room role as much as on field
Mahrez i don't mind leaving, as we saw last night he has mentally "checked out" for a while.Mahrez is a fabulous player but in hindsight probably stayed a season too long for him and us
hopefully that gets Gray starting every week
i would expect quite a significant turnover this summer yes. the recruitment we make is absolutely crucial.it wasn't good last summer and once more we have significant sums available,albeit in a market where everyone is going to be tossing millions round like confetti
the biggest priority has to be more depth and eventually replacements for morgan and huth at centre half, both of which are ageing.Morgan in particular is just slipping over the hill to play in the top flight

CS: "There’s not enough strength in depth (at lcfc). Recruitment is a massive area, we have to get that right."
this is exactly right, a big summer

Harvey Barnes was at the golf club yesterday, seems a nice lad, and a nice Mercedes in the car park too.

Nothing irritates my dad more than when players wear gloves with a short sleeved shirt.
Oh, and that in the European comps they have the additional ref (behind each goal) on the same side as the linesman. That really boils his piss.
