Jfox90 Posted 20 May 2017 Share Posted 20 May 2017 1 hour ago, Chico1958 said: £15.2 million riding on this game In the words of ( Not Sure ) Must Win That is almost certainly the case for Leicester City, whose 6-1 home thrashing by Tottenham Hotspur on Thursday night ensured up to £15.2 million would be at stake in their match at Bournemouth. The deposed champions could theoretically finish anywhere between eighth and 16th, depending on their result and those elsewhere, with each place in the table worth an additional £1.9 million in prize money. Bournemouth have up to £6.6 million riding on the outcome of the game, given they could end up between eighth and 12th. Its impossible to finish 16th..west ham (42) play burnley (40) and unless both teams somehow obtain 3 points one is guareented below us...and to finish below watford we would need to lose, watford beat man city and their be an 8 goal swing which i find highely unlikely despite what happened againist spurs...so i'd say 14th would be worst case scenario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazza M Posted 20 May 2017 Share Posted 20 May 2017 This is a big game really for Shakespeare, he needs to bounce back after the awful performance on Thursday. I think we will have enough to see of Bournemouth at home. We owe them one as they are quickly becoming a bit of a bogey side. 2-1 City.

fazzyfox Posted 20 May 2017 Share Posted 20 May 2017 I'd like to see us start with the strongest possible line up, with respect for Bournemouth and aware they're playing for prize money places too but if we can get to 60 minutes 2 or 3 up (and after the Stoke and Watford games I don't think that's too unrealistic) then I'd like to see a little bit of something different and interesting such as an appearance by Kaputska and a presumed farewell for Wasilewski, then 20 minutes or so for one of our younger centre halves. I don't really see this approach as falling between two stools (which coincidentally I'll be doing in the Kings Head after the game) but I'm aware that it risks ending up 2-2 or 3-3 and costing a few million for the sake of a bit of sentimentality and a degree of experimentation. Just want something different to Slimani replacing Shinji on 60 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingsX Posted 20 May 2017 Share Posted 20 May 2017 Of all the clubs that have reached 40 points (including top five, and us), only Bournemouth and Spurs have improved on a points-per-game basis after getting there. Of course for the Cherries that is all of two games, vs Stoke and Burnley, who were already there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARM1968 Posted 20 May 2017 Share Posted 20 May 2017 Win it and Shakey gets the gig. Lose it and he doesn't, imho. We should win this if the players can be arsed, otherwise their lack of effort will cost everyone except them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
