Next Game: Norwich (1st January 2022, at 15:00) - POSTPONED DUE TO A BUNCH OF SALADS

Win against Liverpool means nothing if we don't pick up 3 points here. Let's put a run together and keep the momentum

I apologise for this - but it means we got 3 points, whatever happens in the next match. 

 

And it also tells us a lot about the team.

Looks like Angus Gunn will be in goal

Entirely different game Saturday. There will no doubt be enough chances, just because Norwich give everyone chances, if we're clinical and show the same spirit as tonight. Great chance of another W

What did BR say after the game tonight about the injuries to Vardy and Maddison?

Nothing said about Maddison - just watching it back and initially looks like maybe cramp, when the physios were on they didn't seem to do much of an "inspection" as such, hopefully just precautionary

 

With Vardy thankfully it is an impact injury and hopefully just like a dead leg or something

Guaranteed **** up isn't it  

 

Nah I fancy us. There's a new lease of life. 3-1 to us.

Maddison went to the bench rather than down the tunnel and was high fiveing other players on the bench so hopefully not too bad.

[goody2028]

Same as Newcastle. 4-0. 

[Gamble92]

Honestly thought I'd never say this but Maddison would be a much bigger loss than Vardy for the next match.

[Raj]

Sigh....you know we are gonna lose this 0-1 now🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Love a bit of AC/DC

[HighPeakFox]

In all seriousness, it'll be hard to get the team as up for this after what felt like a massive occasion last night.

 

It's not a 'must win' but it really is a 'it'd be a lot better all round if were to win, in the circumstances'

Are the AFCON lot still here for this?

Yes, they're not off until the 3rd now.

Please be noisy again, makes going to Filbert Way so much more fun.

Yeah I remember the 8 game win streak we had 2 years ago, looking at Norwich as the 9th, an ends up being a draw. There are no formalities, complacency needs to be guarded against, I think it is a must win, as with the 3 games that follow, we could go on a bit of a run.

Worrying if Vardy is out long term. With Nacho off to AFCON and Daka crocked we'd be without an out and out striker.

Players should be buzzing after tonight. Hopefully the injuries aren't too serious and we can have roughly the same squad as tonight with Tielemans back in along with Lookman.

Not sure I’d start Tielemans unless there really is no alternative. He needs to give himself a kick up the arse.

[lcfc sheff]

Nacho to start and keep Vardy away, can’t risk it

That’ll probably happen with him having the last 35 mins off the pitch last night. Can see us going 433 with kel, lookman and Perez or Barnes depending how sharp Barnes is, with KDH Soumaré and Tielemans in midfield.

Worst comes to worst Perez might have to start upfront a few games, not ideal but it’s what he’s here for.

They haven't scored a goal in December. Don't be that team Leicester!

Remember him playing ST in the 3-1 home loss to leeds, without doubt the worst striker performance I’d seen since promotion. Utterly useless, out of his depth and the leeds back 4 would have never had an easier game. Honestly was astonished at how awful he was. So much so, I’d never stick him ST on his own ever again.
