Looking forward to this! Predicting a 2-0 win for us today. I feel we could do with a proper solid home victory.

Posted

Such a big decision for Claudio today. As important Ulloa has been, I'm leaning towards Mahrez just behind Okazaki, with Gray and Albrighton on the wings.

 

I'd leave Ulloa on the bench to mix things up later on.

Posted

Petrified.

Ranieri's message and interview this week has me completely buzzing. I'm well up for this I reckon a high scoring win 5-2

You realise it's Leicester yeah?

Posted

Today our warrior's march into the biggest battle of their lives.

Today we the foot soldiers will battle with them and create a wall of noise.

Win today and a lot of Spurs spirit will be crushed.

Today we can take a massive step towards winning the title.

Chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarge.

Absolutely bricking it.  

 

Swansea City are one those teams that will either turn up half-asleep and get pumped 3-0 or they will put in a performance and get a disgusting result 0-1.

 

My personal opinion is that Spurs will win all their remaining games so a draw will keep us in it but will make Spurs big favourites whilst a defeat will bury us (we'd literally need to win every other game to keep it in our own hands).

Posted

In my mind this is the most important game in the history of Leicester City.

If we lose or draw we're really in trouble. However a Leicester would will be UTTERLY DEVASTATING to Spurs. So soul sapping that it wouldn't surprise me if they'd follow that up by choking against West Brom

COME ON LEICESTER!!!!!!!!

Come on guys let's turn all this nervous energy into positive energy. We can't let the nervousness in the stands creep on to the pitch. Remember we're in the driving seat here. Spurs need us to slip up. If we carry on winning it doesn't matter how many games Spurs win or by what scoreline. We need unity right now like we've had for the last 12 months. A togetherness and total belief that we are going to come through irrespective of the opposition.

One thing that puzzles me is that last year we were in a far worse position yet I can't recall anyone not believing we were going to pull off the impossible dream. This year in what is seemingly a far easier task we have doubters. I presume this is because we have never won the league so people are feeling the pressure of the situation, however to put things into perspective more teams have won the league from the position that we find ourselves in than those that have fallen away so we need to draw encouragement from what has gone before.

By comparison nobody had ever survived the situation that we found ourselves in last season, yet we achieved what was seemingly impossible. Keep the faith guys, stay positive this is no time for nervousness it is in our hands and we need to get behind the players safe in the knowledge that if we keeping winning nobody can take that trophy away! Come on Leicester!

Fear not, all is well.

The reason that we nearly lost last week is that I had misplaced my current away kit, so wore last years kit. We always concede when I wear that shirt. I have the correct shirt today, and so the result is not in doubt.

3 nil to City. Huth, Drinkwater and Albrighton.

The players will be leaving it all on the pitch.... No need to worry.... they have some good players.... but we have 3 out of 4 PFA team of the season players in our team.... MORGAN, KANTE AND MAHREZ
+ OUR TEAM SPIRIT which is greater than the sum of the parts + THE HOME SUPPORT

Posted

Time for Mahrez to step up, he can't keep having stinkers at this stage of the season.

As for our forward line I'd start Ulloa and drop Okazaki, go with...

Albrighton

Kante

Drinkwater

Schlupp

Mahrez

Ulloa

Posted

Come on lads, do this today for ALL the players in the squad, on and off the pitch, and do it in style with no fear or anxiety holding you back.

Do it for Claudio, do it for Jamie, do it for the fans, do it for Glenelgfox, do it for yourselves, win today you ****ing heroes because you are ALL foxes and footballing legends.

Posted

If we are going for Mahrez in the number 10 role I'd prefer to see Schlupp start ahead of Gray out wide. Schlupp would have more of an effect then Gray I think, in fact I wouldn't be entirely against the idea of playing Schlupp in the Vardy role alongside Okazaki.

Posted

Come on LEICESTER

Biggest football day in our lives so far

Biggest performance needed

Show your heart and soul on the pitch and in the stands by doing whatever is needed to win the game on the pitch and singing yourself silly in the ground to cheer them on

Come on boys and girls

Let's get this done

Once a Fox always a Fox

Up the City

Just seen on the ssn Wenger talking about lesta, got to give props to the guy, spoke about our performances and how none of our players were born with a silver spoon / obvious superstars from youth, all of them have tasted rejection and failure and maybe that's been a contribution to our success.

Posted

Few different options and opinions about who we should go with up front (Shinji/Ulloa, Mahrez just behind Shinji,Gray or Schlupp). I'm confident with whatever option Ranieri goes with.

Posted

Would play Schlupp over Gray as we need his directness without Vardy. Still think we'll just play Ulloa, scored in this fixture last season.

 

2-1 Leicester, Sigurdsson for them.

Posted

come on, come on, come on, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON ,COME ON, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON , COME ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

If only so I can maybe get a good nights sleep at some point this week!!!

Posted

So, a couple of permutations for today, with Ulloa likely to partner Okazaki up front. Ranieri will want to keep his 4-4-2 or rather 4-4-1-1, so it's:

 

Schmeichel

 

Simpson

Morgan

Huth

Fuchs

 

Mahrez

Kanté

Drinkwater

Albrighton

 

Okazaki

Ulloa

 

The bench will see a few changes, too:

Since Ulloa should be part of the starting XI and Dyer can't play against his parent club, it's probably Inler and/or Chilwell who are called upon instead.

Posted

It has to be Schlupp over Gray if only for his added experience. Plus he gives us more defensive cover. It's just a pity when he gets a goal chance he always seems to scuff it.

 

Onwards and Upwards
