I reckon Nelson has got away with one again

Youngest ever play to be sent off?

He does like to go down quite easy, needs to stop that in his game

Nope, first one and our youngest ever player to do so

He looked so uncomfortable passing with his left

That is absolutely a penalty

3 of the back 4 with a poor start

I mean that looked like a pen

Will have finally found his level then

Still got to be careful with him No point having him involved in a game like this

Great to see 7 academy players starting including Nelson, Alves and Monga That fvcking midfield again though

He needs to upgrade the code, I am proper slacking lately

Time to upgrade my PC a bit, I can already tell my current one will struggle

https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/what-next-alves-after-leicester-10420257 What next for Will Alves after Leicester City absence with Marti Cifuentes 'sure' over role Will Alves has a role to play at Leicester City this season, Marti Cifuentes has said, despite the young attacker missing out on involvement against Sheffield Wednesday. Alves showed his ability and his Championship credentials in moments last season when he enjoyed his first proper spell in a senior squad after heading out on loan to Cardiff. The 20-year-old was expected to return to City and take up a prominent position in the team following the club’s fall into the second tier, but he was an unused substitute in the final pre-season friendly and then did not make the bench on Sunday, albeit he was with the squad at the King Power Stadium. But Cifuentes says Alves will get his chance this term, and so he could be in the matchday squad for the Carabao Cup first round at Huddersfield on Wednesday (7.45pm kick-off). “I’m very happy with Will,” Cifuentes said. “He’s had a very good pre-season. “It’s my responsibility that he didn’t play any minutes against Fiorentina unfortunately, but that’s one of the consequences when you have such a big squad. “He’s doing well. I like his dynamism, his capacity to play in between the lines. He can play on the wing as well if we need a certain kind of winger. “I want him to be here and I’m sure he will get minutes to show his quality.” Alves came up through the ranks as a central attacking midfielder, but was used out wide by Cardiff last term. That’s also the position in which former City boss Ruud van Nistelrooy saw his future. However, in Cifuentes’ system, Alves is more likely to be used centrally, and so would be a rival to the likes of Bilal El Khannouss and Louis Page. He would only be used as a winger in certain circumstances. Cifuentes added: “It depends on the system, not the formation, but sometimes you might have a winger that you want to come inside, and that’s something he can really do. “If it’s to play more in a wide role as a winger, perhaps his best position, in my opinion, is more central. A role that’s about having an influence in central channels, that’s more appropriate for him.”

Souttar is out until the end of the year though Like @Ric Flair said, I think we should be looking at getting a centre back in on loan (ideally with an option / obligation) so then once we get to January, and we will hopefully know if Souttar is going to be suitable enough, we can look to get rid of one of Faes / Vestergaard

It was mentioned when Martí was announced that we need to sell to buy I just hope he was told around how much we need to sell before we can buy so he is at least fully aware of the situation He has a history of falling out with those above him for not being backed, and I can definitely see it happening again if they have lied to yet another manager

Todays Result - Tuesday 12th August Carabao Cup 1st Round: Tom Wilson-Brown (5.9 - 45 mins) - Swindon Town 1-2 Cardiff City Looks like he was played at left back

Then Braintree do score a brilliant goal!

Blimey that was so close to an absolutely brilliant goal from us

I doubt his price will drop after the release clause ends

James Haycock is head physio, brought in from Palace last summer - we have had a few different ones since Rennie left I don't think we necessarily need to add more fitness coaches just because Enzo brought one in with him as well - we have 3 currently and also the sports science lads The only thing I would want us to get is a goalkeeping coach, but I wouldn't be surprised if Begovic is involved in that It isn't necessarily a bad thing promoting staff from the youth teams if they are good enough
