foxfanazer Posted 21 October 2015 Posted 21 October 2015 We must be the fittest team in the League judging by the tempo we play at the end of games. I think thats why we know we're never out of a game because we know the opposition won't be able to handle us for 90 mins. A defender thats put in a shift and his legs are gone won't want to see Jamie Vardy chasing him down everytime he gets the ball. Then you have Mahrez's pace and trickery and the full backs overlapping and bombing on. No team will relish playing Leicester City at the moment that's for sure. Palace could be the most similar side to us in this regard so it will be interesting to see who has the legs.

It's becoming quite common now that commentators and journos are making reference to our energy and fitness levels. In fact, it seems like we're getting a 'reputation' for a number of things now: 1. Our fitness and energy levels 2. Our style of play - the 'Great Entertainers' according to Jeff and the Soccer Saturday boys on Sky 3. Our ability to comeback and get something out of games - the 'Comeback Kings' I've heard us called a few times 4. Our atmosphere - the amount of times I hear 'the KP is rocking/bouncing' etc. seems to becoming the norm It's a great time to be a Leicester fan right now. We should enjoy every second of it. Long may it continue.

Long may it continue. I'd say the ability to comeback is the number one thing this team is known for, especially after The Southampton game. Not sure which of the other three would come in second as they are all mentioned throughout the broadcasts here in the U.S.
weller54 Posted 21 October 2015 Posted 21 October 2015 I thought for a moment that this was going mto be a Rachel Riley thread! Yes.. Very disappointing :-(
Jordan Posted 21 October 2015 Posted 21 October 2015 I thought for a moment that this was going mto be a Rachel Riley thread! Haha... But 'twas a The Streets reference, no doubt.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 21 October 2015 Posted 21 October 2015 Yeah every fan knows we're the fittest team in the league it's not that we end games running around a lot we run around a lot for all the game whether we're playing well or not it's relentless which obviously is why other teams are knackered at the end and our lads look like they could easily go another 90 minutes.
