Antonio is having a bit of a mare tonight.

Don't agree at all. He's involved in most good things. We all know he has to miss several chances before scoring. It's why we love him.

Antonio has been a handful imo

Decision making has been poor. Three times at least he's made the wrong choice and ruined a good position.

Yes we love him. Yes he can do brilliant things. But he can also be not very good.

Great half, just need to get the second

claretandbluesky

If we keep doing what we are doing the second should come. They can't sit back with ten men due to being behind and it's easier still now to hit on the counter.

OldCastleSwift

GNev making a good point that if that challenge was Fornals on Perez, the Leicester players would be all over the ref for a red.

Lukerz

I don’t even know how that is in any way debatable. He has regained his balance before the cruncher & the ball was there to be won, but his ‘natural’ left foot decided to divert around 10 inches to the left & crunch Fornals, instead of going to control the ball. It’s a red any day of the week & twice on a West Ham MNF.

Had Perez gone down after Cress touched him he’d probs get a foul. Kasper’s annoyed as his pass led to the red.

Lukerz

Anyway, great half. Get the second before the hour. COYI

whupathman

on the bbc site a lot defending him for the nudge, no way, tried to break his ankle

yoyo

The only thing more shocking than the red card tackle was the Leicester player's reaction, lead by Kasper " don't you know who my Dad was?" Schmeichel

claretandbluesky

Antonio is poor on the ball tonight

OldCastleSwift

I won't say he should have buried it, but...

I'm enjoying this.

Compare Antonio's performance to Vardy's so far. Antonio is a constant menace and constantly occupying attention.

First-class decision-making from Antonio.

PrestonHammer

What's the betting that Rodgers says it wasn't a red card?

When you see how calm he was, and then remember the cross against Palace a few years ago, it’s like a brand new player. He’s so good.

Yep. Been saying it all night.

Dodger58

Is it just me or is Soufal a bit quicker this season?

OldCastleSwift

Argh, Antonio nearly scored from outside the area.

Been brilliant tonight.

MrsGrey

All smiles.

OldCastleSwift

Patson Daka on.

I'm getting the comfortable at 2-0 jitters.

MIAHammer

Antonio and Benrahma do seem to building a rapport between them.
