The Football.....

Yeah that was a scary moment! De Gea is incredible, how much of the goal he can reach. But Bainsey squeezed it in

I agree, De Gea is an amazing goalie. Even though Everton aren't playing that well at present, with a lesser keeper, we would almost certainly have won on Sunday, not only his shot stopping but his reading of the game gives him excellent positioning and command of his box.

Today's venue, the old home of a team which no longer exists

Leicester, 24% possession against Man City and 3-0 up at half time. You'd have got bigger odds against that than winning the league last year.

Football, bloody hell!

So far today, every Premier League home team scored three goals. Will Leicester go higher?

Bradford 0 - 0 Charlton, and how it wasn't 2-3 at HT and 5-5 at FT I'll never know.

Nice to see Leicester finally get going and take their eyes of the CL final which they obviously aiming for.

Well done to LCFC but they were aided by a woeful MCFC.

Pep post match: "we defended well" - he clearly watched a different match to me.

That's it, then. No going back over that bridge. Hope they can stay in the PL.

Flats, I believe.

The 2nd Vardy goal was just Leicester from last season, it was a thing of beauty!

Flats, I believe.

I really really feel for the Hammers fans. To lose Upton Park and end up in a big bowl stadium with a huge gap to the pitch, it's really sad.

I don't think it will be a problem long term. There is a lot of dissatisfaction at the moment, but I think that is mainly down to a very poor start in the light of fans expectations after last season. The old Wembley Stadium had a running track but when you got England v Scotland or a cup final between two well supported teams the atmosphere was electric.
