Corky Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 I'm not sure what they'll view as a positive result. They've got a huge match against Sunderland on Saturday, plus results around them this weekend haven't been good with Newcastle and Bournemouth winning unexpectedly and Norwich drawing. At home this season we've been good at grinding out wins, very clinical against out of form struggling sides as well so plenty of confidence within the team as this is the sort of match we've been winning. I do think set-pieces need to be taken advantage of.
kingfox Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 I'd be quite disappointed if we don't get anything from this game, their defence has been shit therefore Vardy & Mahrez should have a field day, just depends if the defence can cope and remain highly concentrated like they've been showing in previous games.
Fennec-Fox Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 I feel it's gonna be a penalty for Leicester. Against pace and skills the Chelsea bus may panic and run over someone. One thing to remember, even if Leicester gets behind with 2 goals they are capable of coming back and win it, and not too many teams can do that!
Tiny earl Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 Make no mistake Mourinho will be doing everything to get them fired up for this game, and if they aren't then he will be gone, I'm not sure if he has lost the dressing room, or it is just a run of bad form mixed with bad luck and a couple of players massively dropping off from last season. The fact they have qualified fairly comfortably in the end from their UCL group, yet lose to Bournemouth suggests that something is very wrong, and the players are either not responding to Mourinho, or just don't want to. If we win tonight then I could see them sacking Jose, get someone in before January, make some changes, Champions League group stage has been successfully negotiated and then they have a few games in the league to turn things round, before the CL starts again as that would be their only route for qualifying again next year. If we win, they will be 20 points off the top. 20! If they win, then it will show that they are still performing for Jose and they will close the gap to 4th to 11 points, it would still take a monumental effort for them to reach 4th, but it is possible. With some winnable games coming up then a game against United they could close the gap before January to something manageable, especially with Everton and Liverpool set to drop more points. The way we play will expose any of their players who are not up for the fight, it could be a great game, or Chelsea turn up park the bus and hope to snatch a goal from a set-piece. I think if Mourinho tries to set them up like that he will lose the dressing room even more, if he hasn't already. The laziest cliche in football and you used it twice!!!
M0901 Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 Well as long as Okazaki doesn't mark Zouma then I think we'll nullify their set piece threat (...)
Fennec-Fox Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 Pressure on Chelsea to get a result, they r the 1s in the danger zone.
lgfualol Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 Well as long as Okazaki doesn't mark Zouma then I think we'll nullify their set piece threat (...) You watch, we'll have Kanté marking Matic and Okazaki on Costa.
AjcW Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 You watch, we'll have Kanté marking Matic and Okazaki on Costa. Or Claudio could surprise/please us all and start with Leo!
Callabinho Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 This will go one of two ways. We will either nick a 1-0 and Mourinho will be sent packing, or we will get twatted. I don't think a draw is on the cards.
jim5000 Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 So who else is currently at work clock watching whilst buzzing there twat off? Cant wait I'm guessing you're in an office by yourself! Oo
AjcW Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 I'm guessing you're in an office by yourself! Oo TEARS!
Guest LCFC_World Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 I'm hoping for an open and exciting game. Just get more goals than them and that will do it. Keep Willian quiet and that's 3/4 of their talent gone. Going for a 3-2 win, Mahrez Vardy and Huth with out goals. COME ON.
NewEnglandFox Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 You watch, we'll have Kanté marking Matic and Okazaki on Costa. If Claudio is trying to get my Out vote, that's pretty much the best way to do it.
Wymsey Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 Glad Drogba doesn't play for them anymore; seemed quite comfortable with playing us last time.
Robin JD Popley Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 Claudio, did you know if we win later, we go 20 points clear of your old club?
BigWesMorgan Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 Anybody know if there is a club funded Tifo display?
ToeKneeHandCock Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 does anyone know if this is on tv? Yep, SS1
TrentFox Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 Stuck in Liverpool tonight. Anyone know who's covering the game? Hotel has sky in bar, but not BT sport
hornyhollthefox123 Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 The thought of Ivanovic, Costa, Zouma, Terry, Matic attacking a set piece for them is so worrying. Will have to be at our best defensively from corners and free kicks. Hopefully Ulloa plays, if not.. It really is only Huth and Wes that can head a ball!
crisp packet Posted 14 December 2015 Posted 14 December 2015 Stuck in Liverpool tonight. Anyone know who's covering the game? Hotel has sky in bar, but not BT sport Your in luck it's on ss1
