Leicester (a) pre-match thread

Four brick walls will do the trick, definitely.

I'd just clip his ankles every chance I got to slow him down. No Mahrez no Leicester.

I think there's a fairly good argument to be made that he hasn't really been there for some time now so we may not need to clip anything.

As a spurs fan, I am really really looking forward to this game...we played them not that long ago and the ref was terrible, let leicester get away with everything. The half time stats were Us: 3 fouls 2 yellows, Leicester: 14 fouls and penalty conceded ZERO yellows.

I watched the whole match and it was clear bias..Leicester get booked less for every foul than anyone else in the league...be interesting to see if that trend continues today.

Champions League he has, he's struggling without Kante in the league though, hence why I want Nando stopping the quick ball to him.

That's really brave bud, now come over here and put your back to the post and your arms behind it, do you want a cigarette?

I'm just curious, does anyone have a table of the clubs by yellow-to-foul ratio?

I took the shell off my new racing snail thinking it would make him faster. If anything, it made him more sluggish

Made me and the lad laugh thanks :+)

He's been hot and cold in the CL, as well.

Not that I want to jinx the us but I don't think he'll be the main thorn in our side. I am, of course, talking about the racist golden boy.

Now he's been fucking shite this season, don't think he'll even start tbh.

Hey I like where this is going but could we establish a safe word first?

I completely agree, which is why I think he'll play like it's a World Cup final, his dad just passed, and the local 'pride' party gets a million quid for every goal.

Ok, how about "shoot"? :)

 

[aguero93:20]

his dad just passed

Fucks sake, poor lad. Well if anyone's going to score against us today I'd be happier if it's Vardy in that case tbh.

I was saying "like" those things mate... as far as I know his father is alive and well.

I just think with the state of our defense, the way every team likes to raise their level against us, and the continued 'ineptitude' of the referees, he is likely to have a stormer.

Ah right :) don't reckon he'll do much today though tbh, more worried about Slimani in the air and Musa's record against us.

Not sure about this every team raising their game against us.

Is this as opposed to every side doing likewise against every other side in the premier league?

http://www.footstats.co.uk/index.cfm?task=league_cards Not sure how they're accounting for reds.

From what I can see, the teams that are Overcarded AND whose opposition are undercarded are Chelsea and Sunderland. Other side of the coin is Leicester, Tottenham, Liverpool.

I would say there is evidence this may not occur with other sides with the same level or intensity as it does with us, but I am more than happy to concede that is entirely a subjective assessment on my part.

Im dreading what team is going out today.
