Is it bad of me to wish that Chilwell didn't play in these games. It is not in Leicester's interest for him to play and they are unimportant matches.

Don't you think that might ultimately end up with a negative effect though? The better players are ambitious, if they feel they are not being recognised for their performances, they're likely to agitate for a move (or at least be more open to one).

He's been one of our best performers so we'll just have to cross our fingers, hope he smashes it, and comes home fully fit and raring to go in our next game with the added confidence of another international cap.

The television programme is called pointless … this match is pointless.

Good luck Ben .. I won't be listening and won't even bother to find out what the score was

… but please don't get injured.

You're not wrong but with all the emotional upheaval he has been through in the last couple of weeks I think he needed this week off. I believe there is a link between emotional fatigue and injuries as with any other form of fatigue. 

 

We need him on top form for the heavy end of year schedule that is ahead of us.

Positive start from England. Good tempo. 

[PhillippaT]

Good cross from Chillers...

Ah, I thought you meant playing for England in general. I certainly don't disagree that a week off at this stage would likely have been beneficial for him. I totally agree regarding the correlation between mental and physical injuries. We do need him on top form and I do understand the concern.

Swore I heard somewhere this game was a sellout? Certainly doesn't look like it.

It's a bit of a sell out if we're honest.

No you mean time out, the commercial breaks are combined with the score/time inset.

 Chillers looks well gelled up ....

It was a sellout, but the FA selling out....

Looks more than comfortable. Him  sancho look are causing no end of problems on that flank.
