Bit earlier

Woyo looks perfect for being.a wing back in a back 5

Other than the last game until the 80th minute against an Arsenal missing all of their best attackers this just isn’t true at all

Either arrogant or stupid

Might just stay in the pub

Obviously more important that we have both Coady and Vestergaard on the bench! For some reason…

As long as it is pink as well

We usually have 2 centre backs on the bench which there is no need for He absolutely could have another striker/attacking player on the bench if he wanted

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2025/02/20/odsonne-edouard-shambles-example-leicester-mismanagement/ When negotiating the deal with Palace, Leicester paid a £2.5 million loan fee and agreed to supplement a hefty portion of the forward’s wages, which are understood to be around a basic £90,000 a week inclusive of bonuses. Edouard scored seven goals in the Premier League for Palace last season and signed a contract extension to 2027 before joining Leicester. Despite that new deal, Palace are believed to have turned down a request from Leicester to rip up his loan prematurely in January. The only option for a potential exit appears to be Major League Soccer in the United States. The MLS transfer window is open until April 23, yet it is understood Edouard has already rejected a move to Atlanta United. The offer from Atlanta was worth a total £15 million.

https://www.lcfc.com/pages/en/media-article/leicester-city-confirm-dedicated-matchdays-for-four-local-charities Leicester City Confirm Dedicated Matchdays For Four Local Charities We’re delighted to announce a series of dedicated matchdays in support of The Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha Foundation’s four nominated charities for the 2024/25 season, giving the Blue Army an opportunity to celebrate and contribute to the incredible service they do for our communities. Through the VS Foundation, we’re proudly supporting Heartwize, LOROS Hospice, Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People and Leicester Hospitals Charity this year, with each of these organisations to take centre stage on a matchday at King Power Stadium. On these special days, supporters will have the chance to learn more about the life-changing work these charities deliver, as well as contribute to matchday donations that will help further their valuable work. Our designated fixtures are as follows: Heartwize - Brentford (Friday 21 February) LOROS Hospice - Manchester United (Sunday 16 March) Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People - Liverpool (Saturday 19 April) Leicester Hospitals Charity - Southampton (Saturday 3 May) Through in-stadium engagement, fundraising initiatives, and visibility across Club channels, each charity will have the platform to highlight their invaluable impact on the lives of people across Leicestershire and beyond. Leicester City Chief Executive Susan Whelan said: “The Club has a very proud history of supporting important community causes, repaying the faith and the backing of our communities by celebrating and raising funds for charities that make an enormous difference to the lives of people in Leicestershire. It was the very reason we created The Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha Foundation and will continue to be its guiding principle. “The charities chosen by the Foundation’s trustees for this season each have a special relevance to the Club, through a combination of our supporters, our players, and our staff. Each provides a very special and meaningful service to the people of our city that can touch the lives of any of us at any time. It’s our hope that, in the months ahead, we can bring valuable attention to their work and raise important funds that can help it to continue.” The first of these fixtures will be for Heartwize, a volunteer-driven charity established in 2014 by cardiologists Prof. William Toff and Dr. Doug Skehan. With around 86 volunteers, Heartwize is truly community-led, offering hands-on training that encourages each participant to practice with a manikin under expert guidance. This approach has enabled Heartwize to reach over 60,000 people across Leicestershire to date, including many who attend King Power Stadium on matchdays. The charity has also formed a close bond with Leicester City, delivering training sessions to players, staff and fans, and even hosting half-time demonstrations. Through this collaboration, Heartwize highlights the importance of quick bystander CPR and early defibrillation, which can be the difference between life and death in cases of sudden cardiac arrest. Supporters can look forward to a range of activities on each matchday, including matchday collections, special guest appearances, and opportunities to engage directly with the charities and their beneficiaries. Every contribution, big or small, will make a difference. The Club will also be undertaking a series of activities in the build-up to these dedicated fixtures, using its platforms and visibility to highlight the relevance of each charity’s work to our own values and providing unique opportunities for the charities to benefit from the wider capabilities of our personnel. Further details on each charity’s matchday will be shared in the lead-up to their respective fixtures. The Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha 2024/25 Nominated Charities Heartwize Founded by two cardiologists, Heartwize focuses on training secondary school students and the community in lifesaving skills, including the use of portable defibrillators.

Give it Kingy ‘til end of the season

https://sportwitness.co.uk/leicester-city-make-several-visits-to-watch-striker-crystal-palace-also-send-scouts-for-player/ Leicester City and Crystal Palace are keeping a close eye on FC Midtjylland striker Franculino Djú. This claim comes from Danish outlet Bold, who state the Guinea-Bissau player is someone that Midtjylland would ideally want to earn a profit from, even if he has signed a new deal very recently. Clubs are taking notice of the 20-year-old, who has scored five times in the Superliga and four goals in European competitions this season. Leicester City and Crystal Palace have scouted the player in recent weeks and officials have been present to take a ‘closer look’ at the talent. It is Leicester City who seem more keen and have made several trips to Denmark to watch the starlet, having also scouted Franculino in the league game against Lyngby at the weekend. As well as Crystal Palace, Besiktas have also been mentioned as a potential destination for the African in recent weeks. Previously, Bayer Leverkusen and Torino have been interested in him. Since joining Midtjylland in the summer of 2023, Franculino has scored 27 goals and has 11 assists in all competitions for the Danish club.

I was wondering where the Tom Cannon money had gone…

Monaco offered more than that in January

I think Ruud just doesn’t trust youth / doesn’t want to bother with the risk (even though our current attackers are doing fvck all anyway)

Right wing or upfront I think - can play on the left as well I think where he plays tends to depend on whether someone else like King or Monga are in the team A front 4 with the below would be filthy: Evans, Briggs, Monga King

https://soccernet.ng/2025/02/atletico-madrid-betis-monaco-nigerian.html Leicester City and Nigeria midfielder Wilfred Ndidi has emerged as a key summer target for Atletico Madrid and Real Betis, with AS Monaco also showing strong interest in securing his signature, Soccernet.ng reports. The 28-year-old, who has been a crucial part of Leicester’s squad in recent years, is expected to leave the club at the end of the season despite signing a new contract last summer. Atletico Madrid, in particular, are keen to reinforce their midfield as they look to find a long-term replacement for club captain Koke Resurrección, who is entering the latter stages of his career. The anticipated departure of Thomas Lemar has also increased the urgency for reinforcements at the Metropolitano. Atleti’s sporting department has been actively scouting midfielders over the past few months, with Mallorca’s Samu Costa among the names on their shortlist. However, Ndidi’s ability to break up play and provide defensive stability has made him a serious candidate for the role, according to a report by CaughtOffside. The Super Eagles star is not new to interest from Spanish clubs with Barcelona previously linked with his services but no concrete moves followed. Atletico are not alone in their pursuit of Ndidi. Fellow La Liga side Real Betis are also in the market for a defensive midfielder, with reports suggesting they are preparing for the departure of Johnny Cardoso, who is linked with a summer switch to Tottenham Hotspur. Meanwhile, Ligue 1 side AS Monaco have been tracking Ndidi for some time and reportedly made a £20 million bid for him during the winter transfer window. That offer, which included an obligation to buy and additional performance-based payments, was turned down by Leicester, who opted to keep the midfielder as they push to retain their Premier League status. Despite Leicester’s stance in January, it is widely expected that Ndidi will depart in the summer, with all three clubs preparing fresh approaches. Ndidi has endured a stop-start campaign due to injury, with a hamstring problem limiting his involvement earlier in the season. However, he has recently regained fitness and is beginning to feature more regularly under Leicester manager Ruud van Nistelrooy. Although his playing time has been somewhat restricted this season, Leicester still value his experience and leadership, which made them reluctant to sell in January. However, with his contract running until 2027, the club could demand a substantial fee should they decide to cash in during the upcoming transfer window.

We absolutely did We just got away with it on a technicality

3-0!

2-0!! Great goal

I don't think that should be a 2nd yellow at all
