Leicester City missed the chance to go into the new year as Premier League leaders as Manchester City held them to a goalless draw at the King Power Stadium.
It was an open game, by no means as boring as some other goalless affairs have been this season, but the relative lack of goalmouth action meant more time for Twitter wisecracking.
Admittedly, much of it focused on Raheem Sterling's haircut.

Jamie Vardy had one of the best chances of the first half, and a few weeks ago he'd have been nailed on to put it away.
Things have changed, though. Maybe for good.

But while Vardy and Mahrez struggled to replicate their early-season form, one man continued to impress.

The visitors might have been given a chance to take the lead in the second half when Sergio Aguero went down in the box under Gokhan Inler's challenge.
It's safe to say Leicester's Twitter account saw things very differently.

That let-off prompted Leicester to go for broke.

In the end they couldn't find a breakthrough, but some people looked for the positives in that.

Neither side can be too unhappy with the result, though the longer-term signs might concern Manuel Pellegrini a little more.
