Leicester`s first XI 0 - 0 MCFC 2nd XI which includes a couple of kids

All this talk about take the kids off - bollocks. They`ve not shied away from the ball, always available and wanting the ball. These minutes will do them the world of good. It`s basically a pre-season friendly, and all about minutes under the belt.

Not based on the first 45 minutes. Fine though, I can’t imagine he’s being counted on for a big role this year.

so your going to judge a player on 45 minutes in a pre season game. Can I take some of the pills your taking?
 
Perhaps I am easily pleased. This is not far from Leicester’s first team and we are a mixture of youngsters and some fringe players. I thought we could be overrun. We are not doing too bad. The negatives to me is that this seems to be a typical Torres City display and Mendy can’t defend.
 
Dinho been sloppy but we don't have a forward pass on which is causing him to hesitate multiple times before giving it away. Going forward this was the fear, mahrez is the only real threat and when that's the case it's easy to just crowd him out.

Game looks too much for Edozie and Palmer who will be hooked early. Torres could not come out second half and I wouldn't notice for a good 15 minutes. Defence done alright.

Grealish and Bernardo on for the two kids to give them 10-15 minutes with a team close to a starting 11 before using the rest of the subs accordingly last 20. Don't expect us to be any better second half.
