davieG Posted 9 February 2007 Share Posted 9 February 2007 Academy Game On Leicester City's under 18 clash against Reading at the Belvoir Drive training ground on Saturday will go ahead as planned. The match was put in doubt following heavy snowfall in the area on Thursday. But the Foxes ground staff have produced a playable surface for the fixture, and the game will go ahead - so long as the weather conditions do not worsen overnight. City go into the match with a three point lead at the top of the Group B table - with the Royals their closest rivals in second. The game kicks off at 11:30am.

filbertway Posted 9 February 2007 Share Posted 9 February 2007 I hope the youngsters for this age group perform otherwise Thracian will be calling for the U5's to take their places in the squad. Thracian has told me alot of good things about this up and coming footballer. He scores more than hume and fryatt could ever possibly get together and he's definately strong enough to compete in the championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fryatt's plenty strong enough, as is Hume - they just don't score many these days. It might be there's more to it than simply size and strength. Denis Law was hardly big and especially strong, neither is Henry to name a more modern player. And this idea that the Championship is especially tough makes me laugh. There are so many stoppages these days you rarely see a game with any flow and mostly it's because of some innocuous physical contact. Football is faster today, no question, but tough? I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not bald Posted 10 February 2007 Share Posted 10 February 2007 But you don't have to be big to be strong. Sure as hell helps if you are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thracian Posted 10 February 2007 Share Posted 10 February 2007 Sure as hell helps if you are! Me I like speed and mobility. I'm not against a Horsfield type but what defenders really hate is people who twist and turn them, who move and stop and who have good close control.
