Leicester City vs Stoke (H) 22nd Nov 3pm - Pre match

[CrazyKopCorner]

First game today in a while as I thought I was a Jonah. 

 

Then I realised we're just a god damn awful team. 

 

1-1?  

[Bert]

Stoke 11/4  

[Rubbersoul]

Going into a home game against Stoke as underdogs. How depressing. 

[Stuntman_Mike]

Hope I'm wrong but feel this has 0-1 written all over it.

[Ric Flair]

Aluko in please and we need a goal from Stephy followed by a lethal cameo from Monga. Absolute disgrace of a season so far for pure sauce moments.

[Pliskin]

This will be a rerun of the 2003 match won’t it? Wet, miserable and two absolutely honking teams shitting it out together. 
 

Compiled by this predictable line up.

Don’t think they’re even particularly good but have a competent manager

I’m not sure why but I’m quite looking forward to this 

which is strange because I boycotted the last home game.

Maybe I’ve just forgotten how shit we are.

You’ll soon come crashing down to earth after we concede a 96th minute equaliser after being completely abhorrent yet again for 90 minutes. It’s going to be great, piss wet through, sideways and backwards passing…..

[Joe90]

Cannot stand my own team 🤣

Reid and Mavididi in for Skipp and Ayew, I would have thought.

[Rubbersoul]

Mavididi needs to produce something today as does Fatawu. 
 

Be good to see Monga have a strong performance off the bench.

Why do they? Daka hasn’t produced in 36 years!

This is what I would play. Make sure JV passes first time and doesn’t involve Thomas in any build up unless he actually crosses the halfway line with the ball.

 

If it’s slow out the back with the wingers getting the ball on the halfway line then we are in for a tough watch. Hopefully the full backs will actually move up the pitch instead of staying level with the cubs, waiting to pass sideways. 

I expect another Marti fall behind and slog to get a draw materclass.

First 3pm KO of the season, and it’s against Stoke (who are better than us these days) and it’s a torrential downpour… The urge to not bother is high.

[filbertway]

Feels like they will score at least one today, so we've gotta bag 1 or 2 to get something out the game. It's been just long enough for me to forget how hideous we've been and predict a 2-1 win. 

However stoke at nearly 3/1 does seem huge haha

[Raj]

Stoke at home.

We are sh1t.

Its pissing it down.

I've been in bed since 7pm with a cold.

Literally zero motivation for this.

You could have said that about any game since last season.

Can't wait to get drenched seeing us register half a shot on target against Stoke in 100 minutes.
