Leicester City - pre-match thread

I really don't get this Leicester love in. The shit we get from all and sundry about sugar-daddy this, money that, Arabs, money bags City when these fuckers got away with royally fucking over the Football League and its members by going into administration to the tune of £30 million in 2002.

They were the reason the Football League brought in points deductions for clubs that conveniently fall into administration, to effectively restructure their debts. Leicester City FC was the last club to get away without the points deduction but they still got a shiny new stadium the same year they went under, kept their best players and paid them Premiership wages (thereby fucking over other well run Football League clubs) and only paid their "non-football" debtors 5p in the pound. These debtors included around 120 local businesses, of whom 29 went out of business. We're talking electricians, caterers, printers, cleaners, one-man bands, the corner shop, you name it. Non-playing staff redundancies were brutal, but they still managed to pay Denis Wise £25k a week to get them out of the Championship.

So, when the Leicester fans take the piss on Saturday (I'm going for WWYWYWS within a record 5 minutes), when they start clapping with those annoying twatty paper happy clapper card things and that fucking prick starts banging his poxy E-Bay drum, remember that they are supporting a club who have no right to be the self-appointed paragons of all that is good in English football. They are the Scousers of the Midlands, conveniently forgetting all the people they've trampled on in the past.


I hope to fuck we rip 'em a new arsehole on Saturday..


That is all.
 
The next two games will likely be the most important ones for the rest of the PL season as Leicester and Spurs are suddenly looking like bigger threats than Arsenal, would be incredible to take 6 points from them.
 
hart
Kolarov
otamendi
demichelis
Zabaleta
Toure
Delph
Fernandinho
Silva
sterling
Aguero

Pretty much picks itself with the injury situation.

I think it will be pretty close to that, probably (hopefully) with Fernandinho and Delph playing on the right and left of a three in midfield. I wouldn't be surprised if Sterling played right up top with Aguero, with Silva in behind (given that Sterling had a fair amount of success in the first half at their place coming through the middle).

Couple of decisions, I suppose. Demichelis or Sagna? Sagna or Zabaleta at RB (hopefully Zaba)? Clichy or Kolarov? And - perhaps the biggest of all - Fernando or Yaya at the base of the midfield?

Thank you. Well said!
 
The problem wth vardy is he is super quick and runs the channels a lot but can punish you anywhere across the back line, would pick Zab, sagna,ota and clichy and get the fullbacks to be fully aware of his position and don't have both going forward at the same time, they will expect us to attack in numbers
Thanks be to god you are not picking the team!! Pellers will not play Sagna in central defence unless there is nobody else and with good reason. The Argentinian partnership despite its limitations is exactly that a partnership. To play an experimental back four in such a crucial clash will only happen in an emergency!!

Not a happy bunny are you? FYI Dennis Wise Didn't play for us in that First Division Season that you refer to, also, you are correct, we didn't get 'docked' 10 points for entering administration but we finished in 2nd place, 12 points ahead of Sheffield Utd in 3rd, so the 10 point deduction would have meant jack shit!
Obviously I hope we smash you on Saturday, but that's probably not going to happen, but I will be happy with a point from both of you and Arsenal because that means we will still be top.

Ok, I'll take your point about Wise, that was the season before, although he was paid stupid money, which is one of the reasons you went under. About the same time you paid £5m for Akinbiyi? The 12 point difference between you and the Blades is irrelevant, because if you'd have started on minus 10 points you would've been in totally different circumstances from the off, so it doesn't follow you would have finished 2nd anyway, too simplistic that argument.

You cheated the system, cheated HMRC, cheated local businesses and cheated the clubs around you, which is exactly why the Football League did something about it. Come on, admit it..
