Let's hope Pep learnt his lesson because the set up at their place was very naive and frankly ridiculous

Yes indeed but we were also in a very bad moment at that time, Doubt if we would have beaten anyone that weekend.
This is very different we are on the front foot, they will be competitive but essentially their season is over and if we want it more
on the day we will prevail.
 
They've embarrassed us the last 2 times we've played them!
I think the way we play does play into their hands somewhat, but surely we've learnt from the previous experiences?
Any win will do but I'd love us to twat these...

Lep has said he will never change his style of play regardless of who we play. Oh well looks like we will get another drubbing by them!!!

When has he said that ? His time at Bayern shows he has changed formation and tactics more than most managers. He may have said he wont betray his basic principles.
 
I used to like Leicester and was happy for them last season. But I cannot stand that thug Huth or that cranky little fucker Vardy. Steptoe is right. And they have put one over on us the past couple of times so I hope we smash 'em. With Vinny back, we should be more sound defensively and be better able to handle Vardy running into space. We won't let them have a sniff of the ball I reckon. 2-0.
 
One thing I can guarantee is - If Leicester win - Gary Line ache - will have them 1st on Motd.
CTID.......(Manc.)
 
Vinnie will handle Vardy like he handled Rashford, Benteke and Zaha. Otamendi will wipe up the spillage. I'm confident that we will beat them comfortably. Same team as last Saturday will do for me.

I can see Kolarov possibly coming in for Clichy to deal with their extra height from set plays. Clichy had his best game for ages v Palace so it wouldn't be a slight on him for poor form.

The same Kola was exposed on numerous ocaasions against Leicester. He may have a good game like Clichy did. Who knows. We'll all have to wait and see

I think if Kun is fit to play I get the feeling Pep may well play both he and Jesus up front together for the rest of the season. I just dont see why he wouldnt play Kun with his goalscoring record in recent weeks he has been banging them in again for fun. Time will tell but a patnership of Jesus and Kun must be given some sort of run out together before the season ends. Pep can easy get a team to play together with the 2 starting together and playing at home too. Knowing 2 more wins will more than likely set us into the top 4 if were going to over take Liverpool goal difference might play a part too. Wouldnt want it going down to the Watford game in a shoot out for 3rd.

Playing those particular two up top...not sure I'd want that. My main reason- Aguero doesn't pass enough. That can't be denied, especially around the box or in. When someone is in a better position to shoot or score, he'd rather run into a cul-de-sac of players. That I don't blame him for as he backs his ability and did that when he was younger. Yes, I know he crossed the ball for G.J against Boro, however, he had many chances in the game to release the ball earlier. Which he didn't. If both play, one of Sterling or Sané may drop to the bench. I say that but you can never guess what team Pep will use.
 
Game is sold out. Only ticket exchange tickets available.

£58 a ticket live game, 12.30 KO. Get the North Stand extension started
 
I think some fans might be underestimating Leicester. They are playing very well at the moment. Had the season started when Shakespeare was appointed they'd be up there with Chelsea. They've taken 22 points from 10 games which is close to title winning form. A lot better than we are averaging.

They should really be regarded as a top 4 club in terms of this season though whether they can retain players like Schmeichel, Mahrez and Vardy over the Summer is open to doubt. This will be a test of how good we are now that Kompany and Jesus are back.

As soon as I read your post I went to the site as I might be struggling to make the game and wanted to suss out the ticket exchange. They were still selling seats (up to 6) each.

OK, well they must be anticipating it selling out very very soon then
