C-man Posted 20 August 2005 Share Posted 20 August 2005 I know its a bit early for the match thread, but oh well.() I'm worried about this game. I really think we'll slip up in this one, especially if Connolly is out. Our squad is looking extremely thin already, especially in midfield. Even if we can put out a decent midfield, I cant see any of them scoring which means that if Connolly is out, de Vries will have to score. I can see us getting beat in this one Please prove me wrong boys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Posted 20 August 2005 Share Posted 20 August 2005 Latest from the BBC. Crewe v LeicesterCrewe defender Stephen Foster comes in for Darren Moss, who has been absent from training all week due to illness. Striker Luke Rodgers is still out with an ankle injury, but Spaniard Juan Ugarte could feature on the bench after shaking off a knee problem. Leicester striker David Connolly is doubtful after reporting that his niggling thigh injury has worsened. Defender Paddy McCarthy has aggravated his ankle injury and could also miss out on selection.

Hitesh Posted 20 August 2005 Share Posted 20 August 2005 Connoly will start or at least be on the bench. We do need him in the squad as thats our main threat to get goals! we will be thin in midfield but we just have to battle harder. We can do it if the players really want it!! COME ON LEICESTER!!!!

Bert Posted 20 August 2005 Share Posted 20 August 2005 I fookin' hope so, but I can't see it. But it happened with Sylla so he may play. 159421[/snapback] Maybe this is a tactical ploy by CL, if I remember correctly when the teams met last season at the Walkers, Dario Gradi said that his team must be aware of the threat posed by Connolly, with him making a gameplan to combat Connolly. If Gradi Thinks That Connolly is out he might not bother with this, then come say 2:00pm and the teams are announced Connolly is on the teamsheat Gradi will have to change the gameplan! Unlikly i know but a possibility!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert Posted 20 August 2005 Share Posted 20 August 2005 IMO that is the best attacking Line up we could have started with due to the circumstances, Dublin is a better target man than De Vries Imo AND Hammond has got the pace to scare the defenders!!

Little Nicky Posted 20 August 2005 Share Posted 20 August 2005 Uh oh, not the best team possible, but it's the best we've got to put out today! I don't have anyworries though I still think we'll be too much for Crewe to handle! Come on you Foxes! :fox: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy Posted 20 August 2005 Share Posted 20 August 2005 Im loving the prospect of having Dion and Elvis upfront, The unknown quantity aspect is quite exciting. Come on you blue boys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knighton Matt Posted 20 August 2005 Share Posted 20 August 2005 I dont think so. 159479[/snapback] David Connolly is a major doubt for the game with a thigh injury, while Stephen Hughes and Patrick Kisnorbo have also been ruled out of the match.But Levein is still waiting on the fitness of Mark de Vries, Patrik Gerrbrand and Paddy McCarthy ahead of the game. from lcfc.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knighton Matt Posted 20 August 2005 Share Posted 20 August 2005 I'm getting nervous now! This is the type of match which will really test our ambitions of finsihing in the top half/play offs! CRAIG LEVEIN'S... COME ON CITY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
