Match Thread Leicester v Atlético Madrid

[Jeff]

Morgan starts in place of Huth. Rest of the team as expected.

Yay!

What we expected really.

The question is does Shakey send them out flying to get at Atletico, rattle them, and try to nick a goal early. Or do we try to keep it tight for as long as possible and then push on later to try and get a goal to get us back in it.

Hard choice.

I can't wait for this!

 

[SJN-Fox]

Just arrived. Parked up. Now off to the ground. COYF.

Eight years ago today I was at Southend watching us seal our exit from Leage One back into the Championship, tonight I'm watching us play Atletico Madrid in the quarter finals of the Champions League. Wow. Just ****ing wow !!

[Graz]

I hope whatever happens, it's just an incredible atmosphere tonight. Let's soak it in.

Traffic has me running late but I hope I'm in my seat ready for that Champions League music!

 

[Brown Nose]

Veering wildly between thinking we could shock the world and do it tonight or go two down in 20 mins as Morgan hobbles off.

The Madrid side is purpose built to contain and counter attack. We can only do one thing but when we're at our best, nobody yet has been able to stop it.

Nine times out of ten, we lose tonight. Ultimately, it's stretching credibility to expect us to progress further.

But maybe . . .

[yackandandah]

Amartey available if Wes doesn't last.

Line up as expected. I'm nervier than a nervy thing.

Do I go down the pub or attempt to watch a stream on my tablet??!

 

[Robin127]

I'm at work, will have a stream on in the background, just wish I could have a beer.

 

[Rock Fox]

Nervous as hell - Can't imagine how the players are feeling?!
Come on Leicester ! Do your best, do us proud!

 

[Micky]

Same philosophy as the last game. This could and probably will be the last game I ever see us play in the Champions league. Be loud, be proud and enjoy every second. Come on you foxes!
