Leicester City (A) - Sun 29th Dec, 14:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[Zenmanc]

Richest club in the world and we have Scott Carson on the bench . Says it all really .

TBF we've had Carson on our bench for a good deal of the last several seasons.

 

[Gray]

Eddie is injured , we have no choice

No other keepers at the Club then?

 

[malg]

no protection from that midfield for our back 4 so we really need to look after the ball today and keep possession ...if we lose it in the mid third or top third even that midfield aint getting back and their midfield will be running at Ake and Akanji leaving the likes of KDB, Lewis et al trailing.

That's shockingly negative lad, come on where's your fighting spirit....

Just looked at the line ups. They're on the up are Leicester and their starting 11 looks as good as ours, if not better with Vardy up front....probably Europe's beat pound for pound forward. Their midfield will run all over us as KdB, Foden and Bernardo have absolutely no legs in them right now and Kovacic won't be able to do it all on his own.

A 1-1 fighting draw would be a good result and I'd take it right now.

On the up? Are you taking the piss?

Oy......let's keep the bickering for the Matchday Thread please.

wrong target mate.

Strange thing to post. Can you name me one club in the world that has a top class 3rd choice keeper?

 

[MMA]

Maybe just me but I don't buy those 'niggles'.
Bet he's sulking and waiting for January...

So you reckon he's pulling a sickie??

Days on the sick with good benefit's getting full pay.

Eddie might as well work for the council. ;-)

 

[Paul1970]

Who do you want as third choice keeper?

We haven’t got a third choice keeper as Carson is more like a mascot when we are doing well

 

[CC1]

Things are starting to look a bit more positive with regards to players being back.

Almost our strongest XI that. Just Dias for Lewis and move Akanji to RB away from being.

Obviously, them all being fully fit (Aké, De Bruyne) is another question, but at least they’re there.

Up the Blues!

Still missing Rodri & Stones (& Bobb) but media won’t refer to it - yet we’ll never hear the end of Saka being out for poor Arsenal!!!
