Two Superb Sunday Double Headers
There are two double headers his Sunday and the main match of the early matches is the Foxes vs Man United while the big one late is Citeh vs Chelski . The winner of the late match should give us an idea as to who will be the early front runner for the title . There is also Spurs vs the Baggies and Everton vs Palace if you prefer those matches.

So the big news from the Crisps is that Juan Mata is dropped to make room for Falcao to make his first start for United. I wish Roon had been dropped instead.
The teams are out on the pitch.
They're off from The Crisps!
COME ON MAN UNITED!
COME ON MAN UNITED!
COME ON MAN UNITED!
Clattenburg calls a foul on Tyler Blackett. Set piece opportunity for the Foxes.
Thankfully it was a horrible free kick from the veteran Argie, Juan Cambiasso.
Useless by Roon. Mata would have kept possession.
United fell asleep at a short free kick and Cambiasso found Nugent down the right and his cross was headed out for a corner that was wasted, thankfully.
It looks like a capacity crowd at the Crisps.
PHEW! Di Maria coughed up the ball and thankfully, Ulloa, the danger man lost control of the ball as he was about to shoot.
Useless cross/ shot from Rojo, the Red.
LVG taking notes. I would.
A tasty through ball from Di Maria and Kasper came out to block from RVP for a corner.
The corner from Roon is easily cleared. Now the Foxes have possession.
WAY HAY !!!!
RVP HEADS UNITED INTO THE LEAD FROM A CROSS BY FALCAO.
Former United Rich De Laet will want to forget about that as he oover comitted and Falcao ran unchallenged down the left and put in a cross for RVP to head at the far post. Kasper did not have a chance as the partnership clicks in their first match together,
YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
UNITED GO TWO UP THANKS TO A SUBLIME CHIP FROM DI MARIA. . IT WAS DI MARIA WHO STARTED IT WITH A PASS FROM THE BACK TO ROON THEN RAN ABOUT THIRTY YARDS TO COLLECT THE BALL BACK FROM ROON THEN BEAT KASPER WITH AN AUDACIOUS CHIP.
DAMN IT !!!
ULLOA IMMEDIATELY PULLS ONE BACK FOR THE FOXES.
Just 70 seconds between the goals as the Foxes scored straight off the kickoff. De Laet found Nugent down the right . He wen tfar too easily past Rojo and he crossed for Ulloa to head home. His fourth Prem goal of the season.
Roon crossed and RVP volleyed wide, but was flagged offside then Drinkwater shot wide with just De Gea to beat. end to end stuff.
Di Maria wins a free kick in an off the ball incident.
A training ground run routine gone horrible wrong as Roon took it short to Di Maria and the slim Argentine shot horribly wide,.
Konchesky looses control of the ball and gifts United a corner.
Morning, MUR - I'm in the midst of cleaning up and preparing to have some lads over for the Citeh v. Chelski match. So, I'll be in and out during this one. I'm happy to see that United are 1-2 up with goals from RVP and di Maria. Well done!
No broadcast of the Leicester v. United match - what gives?
Blind has a long range shot straight to Kasper after Falcao had a shot blocked from Wes Morgan off the corner from Di Maria.
Good morning mate. The match is on CNBC.
An early substitution for United as Jonny Evans goes off injured and is replaced by Smalling. It doesn't exactly inspire confidence.
I will look forward to the pleasure of your company in the late match. If you have time the early match is on CNBC.
De Laet booked for a poor challenge on Tyler Blackett after playing a one two with Ulloa.
DAMN IT!!! DI mAria is down after being pushed off the ball from De Laet and into the advertising boarding. The former United trainee had been booked and should have been off for an early bath. It was a cheapo shot.
PHEW!! Di Maria is back on.
Horrible high and wide from Rojo , who has had a tough first half.
Wes Morgan slices a cross from Di Maria out for a corner . That could have gone anywhere
Di Maria has a shot deflected for another coner.
Di Maria has a shot deflected for another coner.
Rojo heads well over off the corner from Di Maria.
Great tackle by Blackett on Jamie Vardy
A pass from Nugent is cleared for a corner.
Two minutes of stoppage time.
It's 0-0 at halftime at SFL as the Spuds are being surprisingly held by the Baggies.
Mark Clattenburg blows the halftime whistle to end a thoroughly entertaining first half as United lead 1-2 at the Crisps now know as the King Power Stadium.
The second half is underway from the King Power Stadium.
Poor cross from Roon goes over the goal, or was it intended as a chip?
OH! Off the bar from Falcao . Nearly his first goal for United.
De Laet fouls Di Maria just outside the box off a pass from Rojo. He's begging for an early bath
Useless free kick from Roon.
Jamie Vardy flagged offside off a long ball. That was a close call.
Raffa has a cross deflected straight to Kasper.
YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
HERERRA HAS A DEFLECTED EFFORT GO IN TO PUT UNITED 1-3 UP.
Roon had a shot blocked then Raffa had a cross fumbled by Kapser . RVP chased the loose ball down to keep it in play then passed back for Herrera to slot home.
De Laet has a cross come off of Blackett for a corner.
Ulloa has a header blocked off a corner from Cambiasso.
DAMN IT!!! RAFFA IS A BLOODY MORON. JAMIE VARDY OUT MUSCLED HIM AND WENT PAST HIM THEN RAFFA STUPIDLY PUSHED HIM DOWN WHEN HE WAS GOING NOWHERE.
DAVID NUGENT SCORES FROM THE SPOT SENDING DE GEA THE WRONG WAY. GAME ON AS IT'S 2-3.
Looks to be a right old ding dong. I'm going to switch it on for the second half. Come on, United!
DAMN IT !!! CAMBIASSO MAKES IT 3-3.
A horror show from United as Herrera and Smalling went for the same ball that was poorly cleared. Dean Hammond had a shot go to Jamie Vardy. Canbiasso called him of f and it was well placed by the veteran Argie,
Welcome back Bob. It sure is. A real seesaw .
Sorry, mate - that's a gut punch. I'm watching now.
Ta, Bob. It's our own doing. The turning point seems to be that moment of stupidity from Raffa then the other goal from two United players going for the same ball. Basic errors.
United look panicky now - they need to make some changes.
Dear oh dear - what was that pass from Herrera?
Extraordinary that Leicester could bring a player of Cambiasso's quality to the Crisps.
Falcao off for Jan - I don't understand that at all. Can't he make the full 90?
Canbiasso is off as he looks really winded. He gets a standing ovation.I'm not sure who came on in his place. Jan is on for Falcao.
You lot might be the new Arsenal - dynamic going forward but soft at the back.
I guess Jan is on to help keep possession in midfield. Falcao may not be fully recovered from the injury that kept him out of the WC.
Well wide by Herrera from long range.
That makes sense, sure.
It seems that way. LVG signed fullbacks, but not true central defenders . Until he does we will have a soft centre and not be able to win the Prem title.
Nugent off now - he was the key to their promotion but I'm not sure he's Premiership quality.
Oh - Andy King nearly fired Leicester into the lead!
David Nugent gets a standing ovation as he is replaced by James . The announcer said that he like Kevin Drinkwater are former United trainees that never appeared for the first team
Gooner will be delighted as James Morrison has fired WBA into the lead at Shite Fart Lane.
And now Juan Mata has been thrown on for di Maria.
I just found out who replaced Cambiasso as Andy King shot just wide at the King Power Stadium. Juan Mata on for Herrera. The final roll of the dice for LVG.
Sorry for Di Maria not Herrera
The Baggies take a shock lead at SFL. That would be their first win of the season and take them out of the drop zone.
BLOODY HELL!! JAMIE VARDY PUTS THE FOXES 4-3 UP ON THE BREAK.,
GOAL! Oh dear - Vardy has fired the Foxes into the lead! De Gea completely exposed there as Vardy ran through.
Juan Mata was at fault there losing his footing and the ball and allowing Leicester to romp through the defense.
De Laet easily dispossessed Mata, who had just come on and found Vardy with a long ball as the United defense were caught out on the break and Vardy slotted easily past De Gea.
Jim Morrison with the goal for the Baggies as the Spuds must feel like they smoked something odd.
Oh - bloody hell! Leicester have a penalty. And Blackett sent off!
Poor from Blackett there, allowing Vardy to slip by him and then clumsily barging him over.
Ulloa steps up and...scores!
Sorry, mate. 5-3.
BLOODY HELL!!! IT GETS EVEN WORSE AS TYLER BLACKETT IS SENT OFF FOR A FOUL ON VARDY IN THE BOX. PENALTY FOXES.
ULLOA SCORES FROM THE SPOT TO PUT THE FOXES 5-3 UP.
Nice touch - Ulloa runs to celebrate with "Filbert," the fox mascot for Leicester.
Ta, mate. I don't see us coming back from this. We're two up on the road in the second half and get hit with four consecutive goals.
Jeffrey Schlupp also from the United academy, is on for Jamie Vardy.
As I stated , we definitely have a soft centre.
The substitutions from King Louis clearly did not work.
Oh - Schlupp on the turn. First shot on goal, just flashed wide.
Two former United trainees combine as Schlupp shoots just wide off a pass from James.
Definitely not. I don't know what he was thinking.
Nigel Pearson's substitutions did work.
Me either. Those changes cost us the match
So, now it's Southampton, Villa, Swansea and Leicester all in the top six!
Great tackle by Smalling on Schlupp on another break as Blind lost possession.
will that lost for those teams?
Six minutes of stoppage time!
Into stoppage time - Roon needs to keep his head. You can tell he's boiling over with frustration.
Kapser saves from Herrera , but it was heading wide.
Agreed about Roon.
RVP is offside and clearly frustrated too.
The Foxes toying with United . Really embarrassing.
Spurs have gone down 0-1 at home to the Baggies. Gooner will be delighted.
The Baggies record a shock 0-1 win at SFL.
Gooner will be laughing uncontrollably.
It's over as the Foxes embarrass United 5-3.
Their first home league win vs United since 1985.
Hey Boys

This morning's match has made it worse!!

BLOODY USELESS
Back to bed

Hello UWS. I really wish you a speedy recovery.When I was chatting with Bob I told him that those changes from LVG were a huge mistake . I thought both penalties were the correct decision as was the red card. The better team won. Get well mate!
