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

[Eccles Blue]

Is John Boy injured or tested positive?

 

[citytill1die84]

Not a fan of that lineup but apparently their fans aren't too happy with their starting XI

Fucks wrong with our lineup?

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Kayky on the bench let’s gooooo

Doubt he’ll get minutes today unless we’re well clear of Leicester.

The Let’s Gooo thing needs to die and die quickly. We aren’t American.

 

[Mattyc55]

We have the slowest midfield in the history of the game today and Leicester's only tactic is counter-attack.

True but they’re missing the whole spine of their team bar Tielemens - Barnes/Vardy are their main counter threats too. Kalechi is slow as fuck can’t see them being able to get up and around him to cause us any problems.

 

[N1985]

Is that their actual team or their subs bench!

If we don't win today they should just jack it in.

 

[MCFC1993]

No Rodri is my only worry but I think Pep's targeting Brentford (A) as a trickier game where we'll need him.

 

[01cravend]

Think we'll still win but the lack of Rodri vs their counters will make it a struggle.

 

[Centurions]

Wow. Pep is not happy with Grealish and Foden.

Or Steffen, Carson, Ake, Jesus, Kayky, Mbete & Palmer

 

[youngbob]

No Rodri and no Walker against a team with fast forwards like Leicester's doesn't fill me with confidence.

The idea of going to Brentford without Rodri really doesn't bode well, so hopefully it's not COVID.

Kayky on the bench is weird given there's 4 others on the bench for similar position but good for him. Should be enough, no excuses.
