LCFC vs. CPFC Pre-Match - Mon 26th - Sky Sports

[Gerard]

We need at least two more wins and it doesn't get any easier than Newcastle & Palace at home for us. if we fail to win against either then we'll have to pick up wins versus Tottenham at home or away at Southampton, Man Utd or Chelsea to pick up the slack.

 

We need to make this one count, it's a "must win" if we want to get top four without being dragged into deep waters and fighting for our lives.

[Gerard]

Excited to see how our run in pans out.

To a previous posters point, it's never a dull run in for us it seems and makes the mid-week 5am wake ups to watch it so so worthwhile

Says it all really.

Maybe one day I’ll have overcome the long standing Leicester supporter’s innermost mind set that “all this success is worrying , we’re bound to mess it all up”. I’m a way off yet and still see every fixture as loseable and half  expect the worst

Half expect the worst?  Plastic.

Always gonna be a thing, but we're streets ahead of this Palace side. They're safe, nothing to play for, Zaha doesn't want to be there anymore and they've got Benteke up front ffs. 

 

 

 

Leicester 0-3 Palace (Zaha '13 '20, Benteke '90+3). 

[mozartfox]

There are no easy games in the EPL (Unless you are ManC).

 

Play like we did last Thursday and we have a good chance of 3 pts tonight.  Play like we did at home against W Ham, Fulham, Arsenal, Slava, Leeds and Villa,  and we will get done by the Owl.

[Ric Flair]

Approach the game with the same desire, confidence and determination as last Thursday please.

 

That goal for Vardy is ominous for the rest of the PL this season IMO. I still think he'll get 20 goals this season.

I'm still on edge in the 80th minute when we are 3 nil up. I think it must be in the DNA which our parents have passed down after the three FA Cup final defeats in the sixties.

The day you lose that I don't think you're a true Leicester fan anymore

I'll chuck in £20 to Foxestalk if it happens as well.

I am the generation of your parents....I am on the Erdge until the 95 mins, our honourable teams can have a 3-0 lead wiped out within injury time....

But After the meltdowns  we Love 'em  just the same...innit..!!

 

I wonder if this is the Time for  some melt-ups....that floating  Peace & tranqillity Dimension....Where Mama & Leicester manager are Full of cuddles..

[RowlattsFox]

Target tonight is to be closer to 2nd than 5th. Palace make me nervous as they've done us a few times on the counter, Zaha likes to turn up against us and Benteke also. 

But at this stage of the season you want to play mid-table teams so hopefully the greater need shows. 

 

Can't see us changing system now, we will live or die by it. Maddison needs to be better tonight. 

[fuchsntf]

I want to hear und see that Tennis umpiring moment ,as our game finishes,  when they say,     " ' Advantage'.....Leicester city"

[Reg Vardy]

Zaha will likely be up against Castagne.....we have stopped conceding, we are playing close to our best side, bench is strong(er) I think we are beginning to see belief/momentum taking over......can't see anything other than three points....

I'll be asking Maddison, just give us 60-65 minutes. This will be your Format for the Next 2-3 games,then later we want you doing the same for 90 minutes..

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Argh just don't think we play well against these types of sides that sit in and counter!

 

I'd be more confident if our next 2 games were open sides like Leeds and Brighton away.

 

Anyway, we have the ability to do it and more motivation than Palace, so let's just bloody turn up, high tempo from the start.

 

What I fear is 0-0 at HT and the Owl parking the bus 2nd half for a point. However, we should win and I think we will 2-0 with Vards and Kel both netting.

Think I'm somewhere in between but your post immediately brought back memories of the arsenal 3-3 (and the wolves 4-3 unfortunately)

You're doing us out of a point. It was 4-4.
