Leicester very direct, United much more "considered", even pedestrian. Still too many short back and side passes for my liking. Has anyone seen Rashford?

He's playing hide and seek, and obviously hiding with Carrick.

Leicester have certainly being helped by the ref that is for sure, we have at least looked threatening so far today but we still lack that bit of quality in the final third which is disappointing, though it has been a fantastic game. I just hope we keep it up in the second half and we get a winner as we need to win this game. Today is also frustrating as you can tell the lads are up for it, if we were up for it more this season we would certainly be challenging for the league title.

Fellaini is lucky to still be on the pitch he has a real nasty habit of elbowing and lashing out at his opponents and it will cost us and him at some point, also Rojo looks like an accident waiting to happen the second half could go either way to be honest, i hope it goes our way but with the way this season has gone it is almost certain to go Leicester's way.

We need 2 before Fellaini gets sent off and/or they get a penalty. Ref will now know about the Rojo challenge and Fellaini elbow and will try to compensate, and also will be aware of the Worldwide interest in this game, mostly willing Leicester to win.

Yep, we need 2 more - or we are dooomed to getting 0 or 1 point.

We're playing ok but why are we lumping it into the penalty area? Huth and Morgan will deal with that all day, we need to be running behind them and cutting the ball back.
Hoping for a bit more cunning and seeing Herrera or Mata on the pitch, to be a little more crafty than we have been playing.

Really need someone else to be marking Morgan on set pieces, surprised we still haven't changed that after half time.

Was quite encouraged by the first half. Second has been very poor so far.

If ever we needed the compulsory full back change.

Rojo having another shocker.

Do you think if it stays like this, it is the fair result for both teams

Leicester play largely uncomplicated football and they play it pretty well. United play too complicated football, but not well enough. The respective managers are entitled to take either the praise or the blame....

Depay with a useless cameo. Reputation of a set piece specialist? He pussied out on that run in with Schmeichel at the end. Useless.

Draw a fair result.

4th pretty much out of reach now.

Needed better delivery from Tony V and Rojo. Top 4 is gone now.

69% possession and Schmeichel barely had to do anything in the 2nd half.

That's the end of the top 4 race.

I've kept off the officials back of late, but Oliver was awful today. Anything and everything Leicester's way. Even bottled the idea of giving us a penalty.

Leicester will get Vardy back next week, but Drinkwater and Huth will be missing. It will be interesting to see how the press deal with the Huth/Fellaini incident as both should be suspended.

Carrick improved slightly in the second half, Rashford was out of the game. I have to admit apart from worrying over a possible booking, why he took Lingard off. He was causing them problems, none of our subs did anything today.

Yup. Leicester won't complain as they're more than good enough to get at least 2 points out of their final 2 matches, but now for us it's a matter of beating out West Ham for 5th.

Also caught a huge break with Liverpool losing today.

Great game and a very good first half performance but worringly toothless after the break. A fair result but not really any good to either team - despite all his press conference bluster, surely no CL football next year means LVG has to go. Man Utd had many transitional periods under SAF and yet always maintained a top four position.

He should have got a penalty if the useless twit in black had any bottle.

I don't think having short cameo's does any player a favour. It's not like Lingard ' s on fire is it?

Well that is our league season over and done with now, as we needed towing today to stand any remote chance of getting fourth place, so just got the FA Cup final to look forward to now.

I wonder what sort of speech LvG will give tomorrow evening, surely it won't top last year's one?!
