Leicester (h) pre-match thread

[chesterbells]

They have still got a chance of European football next season.
What I don't like is Mike Dean is a ref from Merseyside. That will bring extra pressure and according to their guidelines, should have been avoided.

In what way have they got a chance of European football -

Leicester are a bang average team. I know their strenghts as do most of the other members on here. Im sure pep does too. We go out their monday night and we beat them, enough of the flapping. The media would try to convince you it was a task similar to the one the spartans faced at Thermopylae. Routine win for city.

9-1 City. Probably.

Its difficult being positive when Liverpool are getting lucky every weekend but here are few things we can remain positive on at least till the kick off.

1: We're playing at home with charged up atmosphere
2: Squad is well rested and ready to go all out
3: Pep wont be allowing any room for complacency
4: Squad knows what is required and have experience to handle these situations.

We are giving to much thought to Mike Dean but i dont think he would be influencing the game.

We can chose to talk about doom n gloom and fret over being dicked over tommrow night or be positive and hope for the best.

We have done it before and we will do it again God willing.

City 4 Leicester 1

Can see it getting a bit edgy if we don't score in the first 20 minutes. Need to remain calm and wait for the chances and back our forwards to take them. The key is not letting emotion get the better of us. We did against Spurs and the game went crazy. Cold and calculated is the way to go but easier said than done.

That's not really true. Sky are biased and corrupt (part of the Murdoch empire). In fact I wouldn't be surprised if Carragher got a pay rise for spitting at that kid.

They even bought him a gold spitoon when he came back from his "holiday" ;)

lets hope we lock the back door in case that hunchback takes them round the back

 

[This CITY is OURS 14]

For any flappers out there , check our home record this season, may help to calm the nerves -

That 1 loss at home in the league to palace was during the hectic xmas period with little rest, we have a a full week to prepare for leicester, believe guys, believe !

FFS load of pussies on here, Liverpool win again and suddenly. Leicester and Brighton are world beaters. It's to be hoped the players are mentally stronger than some of the people on here.

They win their last 2 games and Wolves lose at the dippers.

 

[Plain Speaking]

They win their last 2 games and Wolves lose at the dippers.

...And if we win FA Cup meaning 7th place in PL gets EL.

 

[burning blue soul]

Basically, nothing has changed from four weeks ago. Win our games and we win the league. Nowt simpler than that. Don't need algorithms or permutations or head to heads or any such voodoo!

Win two games and win the league....simple!

 

[supercity88]

It is natural to worry about the opposition more than usual at this stage of the season. Leicester have quick and skillful players and creativity through good full backs and Tielemans.

But they will attack and if we play to our best ability then we should control the game and create plenty of chances.

Make it an intimidating atmosphere for them and back our lads and we can get the job done. Hopefully a nice 2 goal lead early on that sees us to a comfortable victory. We haven't played amazingly well for a while and need to show Leicester after a weeks rest why we are the best team. An opportunity to put goal difference to bed too.

It\s a chance for Leicester and I'm pretty sure they'll be motivated to try for it. I don't think we'll be playing a Leicester who are just going through the motions.

Pie and a pint for a fiver in the ground before 7:30. They want us there early

Or trying to clear the old stock before the concerts start as they won't put up with eating/drinking the same shit we do.

 

[jrb]

Leicester have scored 51 goals and let in 47 goals. +4 GD

Again. Leicester have no option but to attack us and to try and score at least 1 goal, as a draw, let alone a defeat, is no good for them to get 7th place.

Kiss of death. I would rather have a team attack us and try and beat us, instead of a team parking the bus.

With all due respect to Leicester and Vardy. As long as City keep on doing and playing like we have over those last 12 games, we should and will beat Leicester.

 

[NZBlue]

Interestingly both ours and Liverpools goals against total is now 22.

No, can't be true. You must have got it wrong

Not with Vaginal Dyke and allison. Best ever don't you know

Goal difference doesn’t matter now. We can win it on goal difference but no matter what happens Liverpool can’t win it on goal difference. Well unless Brighton beat us 5-0
