A deflected goal happens because a shot bounced of another player, it’s not by the player taking the shots design but it is the design of physics. An external force didn’t force the ball into the player then into the net. Your still saying *luck* was at play when it really wasn’t.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.

There's me thinking they would go on a terrible run with Son missing a couple of games, and Ali & Kane out for 2 months or whatever..
Dortmund should demolish Spurs, gave up so many chances. Especially with that negative approach.
This is what I actually think. Glaston must have multiple accounts here and becomes reasonable or ridiculous depending on his mood.
Noticed that as well. Varys loves it against the big sides.
Only saw the last 5 mins. Of course Son scored. He almost always scores when I watch them. Top quality player.
Really nice of Leicester to gift Us and Spurs a win and take points off of City and Pool 
How do you lose 3-1 after 9 shots on goal to 5?
Rubbish.
Rubbish.
We didn’t play well against Leicester, an off day. But didn’t give up half as many chances as you did.
Excellent result Spurs. Now when City lose to Chelsea you just have to beat Burnley to go second with no games in hand scenarios.
Add to the pressure.

We were meh today and Leicester were very good .. but we still scored three goals and arguably shoulda had a penalty. I'll take that for an off day. You've had those as well against Burnley, Leicester and even against us you were hardly free flowing for most of the game, it won't always be pretty under Ole either.
They're a very annoying, difficult team for the top six to play and we're missing two of our top players. Not really arsed that it wasn't a sparkling performance.
City are far easier to defend against without Sane. Feck off Pep.
He's got to go. Leaving your best player on the bench is grounds for a sacking. Not like he has this group of Leicester players over performing.
I respect him for dropping Vardy if the stuff about disrespectful comments are true.
You clearly didn’t see how awful Sane was last week. Couldn’t even control the ball.
The luck is through something happening by chance. That being a player sticking out a leg, the shot hitting it and then going into the net. If that doesn’t happen by chance then what the hell does?
Are you guys seriously arguing about definition of luck for 2 hours or so? Just hope we are not fooled into buying Harry Maguire.
No such thing as luck. But Spurs can be unlucky. That’s what we should take away from this.
Yes. This thread is like having Slippy Mou in charge again.
My arguing limit is 30 minutes today.
It happens cause that’s physics, people call it luck other team calls it unlucky. When you say luck though you are saying that some sort of external force helped or hindered a person or team, there is no evidence of such a force.
Ha I use the term too, it’s more habit than anything, luck still doesn’t exsist. Being unlucky is also bullshit, so thanks for pulling me on it.
What comments? Puel must go if he's fighting with a player who's been nothing but brilliant for them.
Take out last minute goals and that's exactly what they would have done.
Fair play for grinding it out, but they've been very fortunate lately.
Still has to be a level of respect to a manager no matter how good Vardy has been.
Mine too, the Guinness is flowing and I dunno if I want a Chelsea win or a draw.
Need City to of their jobs today. Pepito better come up with the win.
Huh? Even if the player is the one in the wrong?
Vardy has been great but no one player is more important than the club!
Unsure what to expect from that City line-up today. Chelsea look to be dangerous with Hazard and Pedro on the break to play off Higuain. I’m not as confident as I was all week about this game now...
What is luck? Baby don't bore me, don't bore me.

Higuain is definitely a more threatening name to see on the teamsheet than Morata or Hazard playing as a striker, that's for sure.
Leicester were really unlucky today. Had they been more clincal in front of goal, they'd have got at least a draw today.
Fans apparently moaning about Puel but he's got them playing good football, in my opinion.

Still makes me feel sick having to cheer for these but I'll do a little fist bump Tim Henman style if City score rather than shout, I feel less dirty that way.
C'mon fatboy Pichichi! lets get a couple of goal today.
They definitely play good stuff. You wonder if Harvey Barnes would have been better staying at WBA until the end of the season.
Where does one procure a river?
And then when we beat you guys in the next game, they'll be just 2 points behind you lotExcellent result Spurs. Now when City lose to Chelsea you just have to beat Burnley to go second with no games in hand scenarios.
Add to the pressure.
So apart from today's game, do we want City to win remaining fixtures to stop Liverpool from winning the title? I would say yes if it didn't mean that City could get the quadruple.
A Liverpool title, or City winning the quad? I have to go for Liverpool - I doubt they will win it every year like we did, but a quadruple might never be achieved again and demotes our treble.
