Hello and welcome to the two Robbie's podcast presented by Land Rover.

0:05.4

I'm Robbie Musto with my mate, Robbie Earl.

0:07.3

And we like to sit down at the end of every Premier League match day

0:10.1

and just go through the main talking points from the matches.

0:14.2

And we're going to start right at the top of the league.

0:16.3

And Leicester City, yes, Leicester City are still there, Robill.

0:20.0

The dream continues. not easy at home against

0:22.6

new kassi united with a new manager but as we've seen so many times somebody at lester city does

0:28.2

something special they defend really well and take three points same again they find a way to

0:33.4

get it done in this today it was okazaki's time okazaki's time with the head of Mvardi, a magnificent overhead kick gets up three points. But beyond that, I just want to talk about the group, Robert. I think their match management, okay, they get one goal, and then they organise, they work hard. I see Jamie Vardy chasing back into the fullback position. I see Angolo Cantay putting his body on the line to get blocked in. I see drink water. I see the back forward. There's such a committed group to get this job done. And one of the things that was so pleasing about today is there's now only going to be eight more occasions when people like you started, Bobby Musta, but other people are going to say, when's this thing going to be eight more occasions when people like you started probably must have

And just, again, to expand on your point, the front players work hard when they haven't got the ball. The midfield two in the center, drink water and cante again, who was magnificent again in this

1:44.2

match, just make it really, really hard for teams to find some space to play against them.

1:49.3

A back four that we've talked many times, Rob, about I'm not being superstar players,

1:53.0

but again, they get the job done.

1:54.7

And it's remarkable, it's stunning.

1:57.6

Nobody can stop them, Rob Eurlis.

1:59.5

Crystal Palace next up for them next weekend,

2:02.1

away at Salhurst Park, and you just fancy him to keep going.
