Wonderful tribute to the late owner. Felt like it was destiny the way Leicester had run of the ball at times today and Tielemans sticking it in top corner.

And you know if it was us in that situation Chilwell "goal" would've been given.

I've always rated Rodgers as a manager aswell, top 5 in this country imo so that trophy will push him up the ratings.

Mad to think when Claude Puel was sacked in Feb 2019 he had a squad of Vardy, Maddison, Tielemans, Evans and Chilwell 12th in the league. We may come to that point in next 2 years but Rodgers was perfect pick up for them for what they needed for the squad.

Just now, DJ_Villain said:

Delighted for Albrighton.

Lied to about being offered a new contract, slung on the scrap heap by Lambert...

Goes on to win the League and now FA cup with Leicester.

Some cosmic justice that Albrighton's post-Villa career has been really successful and Lambert's has been a complete disaster.

Shame we lost him though.

Interesting how they've stayed more than competitive in last 4 years despite losing all of Kanrte, Mahrez and Maguire (and errr Drinkwater). Came very close to losing vardy aswell and he'd have been their biggest loss imo.

Compare that to us losing Downing, Young and Milner within two year period and dropping 10 places down the league in two seasons. Or summer 2015.

They're a very well run club with a clear strategy especially for key decisions. Brendan Rodgers was still Celtic Manager of course when they decided to go and get him.

As much as our owners and Purslow have been brilliant so far I suspect there's a big decision or two coming our way in next two years e.g. will there be a point when we decide DS has taken us as far as he can. Or Grealish waking up one morning and deciding he's done all he can here.

Leicester have shown you just don't give up on being a top 6 club if stuff like that happens so we need to study that.
