cruzFOX Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 Crickey a week ago I was dreading this fixture expecting a rabid spurs going hell for leather at our boys. however I have a funny feeling this us the game where we play out of our skins and actually nick a win of course our defending has to be like the best part of last seasons which us a tall order ranieri will hopefully remind the team of what to expect at white cocks lane. They still haven't got over the fact leicester are champions. Highlights? kasper saves our bacon with more world class saves shinji makes the difference by hassling their midfield morgan stops sleep walking and puts his body on the line again mahrez terrorizes the spurs defense and slim gets the goals gray comes on as a super sub and inflicts more damage or I could be just dreaming........
STUHILL Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 I think if we get outplayed and lose heavily again like the Chelsea and Liverpool game, then we should start to consider a 5 man midfield away from home against these bigger teams, with Vardy as the sole striker for the quick counter attack. If we win.. then ignore this.
CosbehFox Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 Is it true that Bobby Madley is the ref for this game? If so, the old PGMO are hilarious. He's refereed two recent Spurs v Leicester games at WHL and made two absolute howler of decisions. We fielded a team similar to Saturday, we have a chance as Shinji makes for that fifth midfielder. I can agree with the potential resting of Slimani.
AyewJoking Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 would you take defeat in this game but win in copenhagen? or win at spurs and lose in denmark?

Win at Spurs lose in Denmark. Massive confidence boost if we win away in the prem which we badly need. We can afford a defeat in the champs league. Beat Bruges at home and we are sorted
foxy boxing Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 let's all chant"we're coming for you, we're coming for you we're Leicester city and we're coming for you" and show pictures of foxes munching on harry kane

David Hankey Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 If City can replicate the performance of last week we should come away with at least a point if not all three, hope so.

Manwell Pablo Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 Can we just sing who finished third in a two horse race for 90 mins regardless of score?
Callabinho Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 I think we will nick this...they've not lost we've not picked up an away point....scripted lads.
Guest Col city fan Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 I've picked City's last four results correctly. Not in terms of score, but in terms of result. This one, I think, will be a draw. And there'll be goals..2-2

And there'll be goals..2-2 If Shinji, Slim, Musa and Mahrez keep in form, not to mention Vardy and Gray, it seems it's not the goals but our ability to contain their attacks which may decide many matches to come. Which I think was exactly our problem this time last season too, but without the little one quietly working away.

fuchsntf Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 Forget resting anybody...Play the same as last game. Let them build into a Rhythm, let them build form. Musa and Shinji got on the score sheet, let them loose, for a few games, including the next CL Its Claudios call anyway , so if he uses the squad rotation, also no problem... plus as a fan, Like last year no change for me. 2 difficult away games...6pts. Its my job to dream, so I dream big, with Claudio's blessings.... Why be cautious, why build up doubt...go for it.!!!
Russell sprout Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 This has city written all over it,with there unbeaten run and our away form being as it is,on top of the fact we beat them to the title, the form book will be ripped up and we'll win 2-1

leicesterseddon Posted 25 October 2016 Posted 25 October 2016 I feel more confident about this than I did a couple of weeks ago - but still a bit nervous. Regardless of the Palace result, we'll get mullered if we play like we did at Chelsea (or Liverpool). Got to be 4-5-1 or 4-4-2 with Shinji I think...
