Couple of times he put the ball out for throw into and shepherded the ball out of play thinking he was winning the throw in ? He's not only shit but a fucking idiot. At least he actually applied some pressure and went to players, something Shelvey hasn't been doing in his time here.

Agree, I recall his nonsensical touchline gestures when he was at Liverpool, but never anything as animated as this. He's having to guide them every step of the way but it's brilliant to see he's so into it and the players are listening/respecting him.

The fact that so often it's the 'bigger teams' that benefit from these decisions to me suggests there is something not quite right. Goal line technology is a step in the right direction but why the f*** have we stopped there and we're still constantly talking about referee cock-up's when there's £120m at stake every season, it's absolutely unbelievable really.

Agree he should have squared it earlier to Colback, but it's fucking Colback.

2-0 loss.

MOTM by a mile today.

Ran himself into the ground and played fantastic again - no way he could have completed the full 90 and tbh I still don't think he looks fully match fit yet, but the sharpness is definitely coming back.

Tbh I know we all have our gripes over Elliott but he's been our player of the season prior to his injury. It's easy to say 'he would/wouldn't have saved that' but Darlow just looks shaky and I see it as nothing short of a miracle that we've only conceded 1 goal in 2 games with him there. Think that's more to do with playing 2 DM's than Darlow coming in.

That linesman was dropping fucking clangers all game.

fucking dead cunt more like, he's definitely a zombie.

I still think Elliott's injury and having to play him could be a major factor that costs us relegation. Don't rate him at all and I s*** myself whenever someone takes a shot against us, no matter how far out they are.

Another assured performance from him today apart from when he gave the ball to De Bruyne. He seems to be getting better the more he plays and I really hopes he makes me eat my words about him earlier in the season.

Fuck him, play Aarons.

Too blurry on there - may be this PC? Anyway all I can make out is Vardy and John Moss in the casino so far.

He came off the bench and assisted 2 goals so it didn't have to matter, thanks to him. Same as he's came off the bench to almost single-handedly get us points against Norwich when it really mattered, and put in the decisive equaliser in the derby. He's starting to show some form so get off his back, nobody's saying he's clinical but he's putting a shift in, showing quality and leadership and registering some goals and assists when we really need them most. Yeah I never disputed any of that. He was class, it was a terrible shot, now shove your rolleyes up your arse

We could say that about most teams, the chances of it happening though...

Wouldn't hold your breath on that, mind. We've practically been playing his corpse this year.

Don't know why everyone keeps banging on about him being a luxury player, have you seen the points he does? The ones where he points at a player telling a player to pick the man up despite the fact that either 1) he's closer or 2) he's making no effort to close down the player closest to him with the ball. f***ing brilliant, man. Just what we need.

Keep forgetting this cunt exists.

Took out Funes Mori and Bolasie from last week (for -8pts) to stick in Baines and Iwobi. Total 25pts cost as a result so far, another fantastic decision in a long line this season!

1-4 loss. Brought back down to earth with a bang.
