If Liverpool turn up Chelsea have no chance. It would be a huge non event if they lose. Wolves they may scrap a point. They look garbage without Kante Imo. Would love to smash spuds with a complete performance again. Would be amazing. If we can get not only a win but a good win v Spurs everyone goes in confident for the Man utd game, concentrating on Chelsea's results is the same sort of mindset that Rogers had at half time v Bournemouth, he's realised that was an error, while we have to be aware of both Spurs and Man utd's good attacking threat, both of them have weaknesses at the back, an in top form, 2 more wins is possible.

This is it. We just need to perform. If we play to the top of our game we can beat anyone. But we have to be on it, as likewise we can lose to anyone if our performance levels are low. The best way to stop the opposition is to not give them time on the ball or let them gain any passing rhythm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I now feel really optimistic, the basics of winning 50/50 tackles, showing desire, upping the tempo when in the final third, strong defending was evident against Sheff Utd, an against Spurs and Man utd, i'd expect to see an older school Leicester of slightly more counter attacking, the possession stats for LCFC in the next 2 games will be between 45%-55% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCFCJ Posted 18 July 2020 Share Posted 18 July 2020 The general consensus from almost everyone bar Leicester fans is that they think the Yids are going to run away with it. I am quietly, (maybe naively) confident about tomorrow. I think if we play 3 ATB again we can easily deal with Kane down the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffschlupp Posted 18 July 2020 Share Posted 18 July 2020 I've got absolutely no idea which way this could go. No result leaves us out of it by the final day, so it's not a must win game. I think that might be the message the players need - go out and play your natural game, don't worry about the result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 18 July 2020 Share Posted 18 July 2020 Really interested to see how Jose approaches this game will he be defensive minded (his natural position) or will he look at Thomas and Morgan/Bennett and see possible weaknesses he can target if he goes on the front foot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beechey Posted 18 July 2020 Share Posted 18 July 2020 Spurs have become a proper smash and grab team, their xG against Newcastle left a little to be desired when looking at the end result (especially considering before their 3rd goal, their xG was 0.82), but what really is surprising is just how many shots Spurs allowed Newcastle to have inside their box. The indication being that Spurs don't create much at all, but generally score their high chance shots. I hope we can be more clinical than Newcastle were. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudulike Posted 18 July 2020 Share Posted 18 July 2020 Kane nearly always scores against us so don't expect anything different. Did he have a bad experience during his time with us? From memory, I thought we were quite supportive of what was clearly a young player trying to make a career in the game. Which made for a surprise when he scored against us on his first return and ran away cupping his ear in a bit of an 'up yours' celebration. A bit unnecessary and disrespectful, I thought.

Clever Fox Posted 18 July 2020 Share Posted 18 July 2020 One thing I'm sure of is that we need to take our chances when they come. We cannot be as wasteful as Thursday night and still expect to keep winning. They're strength is up front with Kane Moura and Song and Alli in the hole. We need to try and stop them further up the pitch and try to grind them down to the where they usually give up trying. As it means very little to them, Lets hope they are not all that interested and more concerned at not getting injured for their Holidays. I'd take a draw now but a win would be nice.

Not fit expect bergwijn to be put up against Thomas or Justin and told to turn them around. jose says they want EL so it means a lot ....... apparently ........ palace have proven that even with nothing to play for, you can still play well .....but they have got nothing from those games where they’ve played well .....l don’t care how tomorrow is .....just want three points to give the boys confidence for next Sunday ......

Finnegan Posted 18 July 2020 Share Posted 18 July 2020 1 hour ago, pmcla26 said: Same starting 11 as last game. Barnes only stays in for me to provide some extra cover for Thomas out on the left, Gray deserves to come in but is better off the bench and Nacho might be a bit too offensive to start up top with Vards against Spurs. Perez had a lot of joy in the right channel as well last game and if Barnes could finish or pass then I probs would’ve said he had a good game vs Sheff Utd. Gray 100% should not start. If he has value, it's being fast against tired legs. Let's not fall in to the trap of pretending he's better than he is because he got his six monthly goal the other day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
