Leicester City (H) - Sun 26th Dec, 15:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[kupest]

If Leicester have 13 players plus a goalkeeper then this is on. Including their U21's with 1st team experience.

Any idea on their current covid situation?

 

[Nellies left peg]

Hope it’s on!
can’t be arsed with Boxing Day at the mother in laws

Not enough credit is being given to city regards our covid restrictions and whilst every other team is falling by the wayside our boys continue to plough onwards. Fair play to you boys as we will have points on the board unless we run out of opposition, Swindon might be in doubt as covid has affected them too

Looks like Boxing Day is on (at least for now). I shall look forward to the game all week.

Not yet but they called their game off the weekend just gone on the 16th.

So assuming they knew their players were positive on the 15th and assuming they recover well then they should be available for our game.

Their league cup game due to go ahead Wednesday will tell us more.

The match might be on but will fans be allowed to attend it?

City 4 Vardy 1.

Just don’t STEP on his TOE , 2nd only to landmine Salah for dodgy pens

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

there was report about city player going to a dominatrix after leeds win and its speculated to be grealish,foden or stones but would that make pep angry

They need a good spanking.

Wait, hang on…

From what I've heard, both the PL and Government are desperate to keep both Christmas Day and Boxing Day 'open' for families and friends to mix.

Unless something catastrophic happens in the meantime, I suspect they'll turn a blind eye to people attending Boxing Day football as it's traditionally a family outing'...

I would guess that some clubs wouldn't be too unhappy to see an outbreak in their ranks in the next few days.

 

[stan bowles]

13 fit players plus a GK and you should play the game - unless Government overrules the PL.

 

[N1985]

5 nil.

 

[Nellies left peg]

Who said grealish is injured, with spank marks on his ass?

 

[mcfcpf47]

Don’t think they’ll have a break because of Covid they’ll say if you have 14 fit on both sides you play

The PL said if you don't have 14 fit first team players then you have to use U21s with first team experience so could possibly still go ahead

Looked to me as if Leeds were the ones who like being tied up by someone dressed in rubber.

Guardiola regards both as talented players, but it seems unlikely at this stage that he will recall either of them for the Leicester City game. It is expected that he will address the matter on Thursday at his pre-match press conference.
