Martin, Stocksbridge: To think Jamie Vardy got thrown away as a youngster by Sheffield Wednesday for being too small is laughable and shows where this country is going wrong. He was then given a chance by local club Stocksbridge in the 8th tier of English football and was ripping defences apart for fun then. Now he is ripping Man Utd apart, what a great success story he is. Goes to show what hard work can do.

Anthony in Manchester: I think Anthony Pilkington has scored against FC United and Man United. Atheron Collieries and Norwich!

Leicester City goalscorer Jamie Vardy: "As soon as we got back into it we were on a massive high, the crowd were right behind us. We created chances and we put them all away.

"We had done our research this week and their attacking options are frightening but the diamond formation they play leaves a lot of space behind the full-backs and we looked to exploit that.

"I am proud of the performance today but the main thing is that we got three points.

"This is a dream come true but I wont let it go to my head. I'll get back for the Manchester City-Chelsea game and relax on the sofa."

Diego Costa has started life in the Premier League extraordinarily well. The predatory striker has bagged seven goals in his first four games, and one more against Manchester City this afternoon will draw him level with this colossus of the game.

Just look at him. The grimace, the 'tache, that kit! Drink it in people. The magic of Mick Quinn. The Coventry striker scored eight times in his first five Premier League games, and 10 in his first six.

Is Diego Costa as good as Quinn? Not in my book...

Yannick Bolasie almost gets in behind the Everton defence as Palace, in a very bright yellow kit today, start well.

Excellent start from City as Sergio Aguero burrows away into space on the right and wins a corner, which John Terry heads clear twice. Pablo Zabaleta then picks out Aguero with another cross but his header is away and behind.

And game on at Goodison.

Under way at the Etihad...

A great question...

Simon, Manchester: Is Jamie Vardy the only player to score against Man United and FC United?

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal, speaking to Sky Sports: "How is it possible to give this game away? We have given the game away. Leicester has proven already in four games that they have a strong character and that when they are 3-1 down, you can play all the game with more possession but you cannot do these kind of things."

On Tyler Blackett's sending off and the Jonny Evans injury: "It is not pleasant when players are injured or sent off but we can manage. I don't think it is the weakness of our defence, it is the weakness of our defensive organisation from the team. That we have to do better. You have to know when you can pass the ball and when you have to get rid of the ball. In this game, at 3-1 I felt we had played fantastic football but then you cannot make the errors we did.

"We have to continue and improve. We created a lot of chances, we made fantastic goals so that is a plus but we lost the game and that is the most important thing."

"When Jose Mourinho managed Chelsea in his first spell, at 2-0 up it was game over, that was enough for him. I think he is a different manager since he came back from Real Madrid.

"There, they have an expectation on winning but winning well. Mourinho has gone from being a manager with a glass half empty to being a manager with a glass half full."

Just 10 minutes to go until we have lift off between Everton and Crystal palace, and Manchester City and Chelsea.

What a Sunday afternoon.

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal: "I think the spectators have seen a fantastic spectacle today and we started well and scored fantastic goals. In second half, we scored another goal but you have to win the game and we didn't do that. We didn't keep ball possession in the right way.

"We have too many players who want to seek for the goal. Leicester have already showed against Arsenal and Stoke that they can come back and they did it very well.

"For the first penalty it is always the referee [who you talk about] but you don't have to do that as a player. You know you are in the penalty area and you allow the referee to whistle if you make a challenge, I don't know if it is a penalty but we have to look at ourselves because we made such big errors as a team.

"I cannot say that I am happy. In the world of football, these matches happen. I was a coach at Barcelona in my first year and we were 3-0 ahead, with 15 minutes to play and we lost 3-4. It can happen, it is the world of football but it is not good because we have the game in our pocket and gave it away. Not because of Leicester, we gave it away and I don't like that.

"You cannot say the defence was weak. You play like a team, Leicester showed that, we did not play like a team in the second half and that is not only defence. In a defensive situation the whole team is responsible, not just one defender."

Leicester manager Nigel Pearson: "Back to back wins in the Premier League is never easy, especially for a promoted side. To back up the Stoke win against one of the big forces in English football is very satisfying. When you add to that coming from 3-1 down, it is a testament to the quality, belief and spirit amongst us. All in all we got things right tactically. We were always in the game because we matched them up.

"The most important thing is we continued in a positive vein. It is not a case of being positive and also being naïve. You need to find the right way to approach games. In the end we were full value for it.

"When you play against the diamond, the players who are going to have the most time are both full-backs. But we were able to exploit areas down the side of the back four on the transitions. We didn't do it well enough for long periods in the first half but were better in the second. The players have to take credit for how they went about putting into practice what we talked about and also their resilience. It is not just about technical ability.

"I haven't seen it (the first penalty) but I think when players commit to challenges in the box you have to be careful. We have an honest group of players and when you play at this level there are offences where you wonder if they are or aren't. That is the culture we have now. But our players work hard to put opponents under pressure and if we had a lucky break we earned it."
