Leicester (a) pre-match thread

Is there a slower back five than Stones, Zab, Kolarov, Sagna and Fernando in world football?

Nailed on then. Albrighton and Vardy will get arches behind that back 5

Nando is quick enough, Stones is alright. Full backs are worrying, would have given the two kids a chance, especially Maffeo.

Good attacking line up,more concerned about the defence with kolarov in there vardy and co are pretty quick,was worried about this game earlier in the week but think we will get a draw at least,as long as we keep it tight first 15-20 mins..

Both sat/sit a lot deeper though, less space behind.

No just sarcasm ;) It what we do best, thinking the worst, hoping the best.

Worryingly that is a small and slow team. Huth and Morgan will dominate set pieces

That is indeed mad,we used to have a big strong team,we might be more technical but full of short arses

Leicester won't defend so high up though. I don't have an issue so much with the personnel just them and a high line.

Kolarov up against Mahrez, that could be fun

 

[cookster]

Leicester's?

It's close but they won't be defending on the halfway line.
