    We are Dortmund

    Let's get used to the fact we are a club that will lose our Jadon Sancho (Chilwell) or our Aubameyang (Mahrez) each season but maintain our position near the top. We need to trust the excellent replenishment of the squad and the bringing on of young players like Sowah and KDH and go with it.

    Pre Match Leicester v Manchester City

    I'd love to see the below team against Man City and somehow get a win. Would be a club changing next step for us. If we've got Barnes back for the FA Cup Semi then that will be epic. When you think of the contribution Morgan, Fuchs, Thomas and Mendy have made this season its remarkable...

    Pre Match Everton v Leicester - BT Sport2HD - Wed 8:15

    Wouldn't mind seeing the below v Everton who we were terrible against last time. Just to see if it suits us better while Vardy isn't fit. That way we would have quite a lot of flex to bring Albrighton, Castagne, Mendy, Under on if we need to mix it up. Schmeichel...

    Could Vardy be the inside left answer?

    A thought I've had recently is about the problem we have balancing the side on the left, how we increase our goal threat, and then how good Vardy is in the left channel; it's where he does a lot of his good work. I know I'll be shouted down, but I think it could be a way to help us get more...

    Young Team

    It's only really just occurred to me that our team has transitioned/is transitioning to a ridiculously young spine with 6 of the matchday 16 being either under 21s or very very early in their top flight careers. Maguire 25 Chilwell 21 Gray 21 Iheanacho 21 Ndidi 21 Diabate 22 I know people have...

    The Leicester Drunken Philosophers Song

    In honour of the teams two current forte's: - Being awesome - Getting into drunken scandals I've written us a nice song to the tune of Monty Python's 'Drunken Philosophers'. Hope you like N'golo Kante was a real pissant but he kept the midfield stable Ben Chilwell liked a drink as well but...

    Wasilewski: suggested song

    Suggested Wasilewski song to the tune of: 'That's amore' When you're dumped on the floor like you've hit a barn door: Was-i-lewski When you think you're well in and a foot breaks your shin: Wasi-lewski You can play 'tippy-tippy-tay' with Konckesky all day - he'll ignore it. But you go down...

    Adda Djeziri

    On September 3, 2007, Djeziri joined Ian Holloway at Leicester City on loan until December 31.[3] On January 9, 2008 Djeziri joined South Coast based English Premiership side Portsmouth under Harry Redknapp.[4] This fella gets one year deals at a series of english clubs, never plays and then...

    Bamba and Gradel

    Well played and commiserations to Sol Bamba and (he was one of us, after all) Max Gradel of the Ivory Coast. The runners up went the whole African Cup of Nations without conceding a goal, with Bamba playing every game in defence alongside Kolo Toure. His stock will have risen as a result and...

    Speculation Matt Ritchie

    Football 365 has Leicester making a 'late bid' for winger Matt Ritchie of Swindon. He's a player that's always stood out as a good, threatening wide player for me. Although if he has that real quality or extra pace we need, I'm not entirely sure. It's clear that we need some threat down the...

    Confirmed Transfer Gelson Fernandes

    Next 4 Games

    I think we have a really strong realistic chance of winning our next four games in current form. Preston, Milwall, Sheff Utd, Barnsley is a really good run of fixtures.... The two hardest games (Milwall, Barnsley) are at home, whilst both Preston and Sheff Utd are all over the shop and we...

    Difficult to beat

    Hurrah, it looks like Sven Dog and Dez Fizzle (trademark) are forging a team that is 3/4 of the way there..... The defence has really tightened up and if we can hold on to naughton and davies until january at least we can reappraise then and hopefully buy one of them for over the odds cash...

    Grand Designs...

    Expecting Errikson to come in and suddenly take us on a ten game winning streak reminds me of that property programe Grand Designs. Basically if they buy an attractive old house that needs some work, but find that the foundations have been in some way underminded, they don't just plonk a new...

    Richie de Laet

    Daily Mail this morning says he will be signed as soon as his emergency loan at Sheff Utd expires. Have to admit that I've only ever seen him in dissapointing Man Utd performances where they rest the decent players. So hard to say if he'd add to us either at left back or centre half? Thoughts?

    Andy King: future legend

    Just watching back the highlights of the Scunthorpe game and was massively impressed by young Andy King's involvement in one particular incident. Martyn Waghorn slams home a super goal and wheels away ready to rip his shirt off in celebration and get a booking. Andy King hot on his heels, hold...

    There, i've said it. - Sven is reported to have a ten million budget. Massive in the current climate in the championship. - Big players will want to play under him. -The Thai's have set there stall out and brought in a massive character - showing their intent. - The base of our squad (save...

    Vaughan to Palace

    Not sure why, if Vaughan was available, we didn't get hold of him instead of Palace. I'm hoping it's the 'don't loan players to the same club twice' approach - rather than us overlooking a fantastic player that made some really strong appearances for us last year. Would have like to have...

    New Team - unbalanced squad

    I'm quite optimistic about some of the new players that have been brought in. Abe has pedigree, Moreno and Vitor have some strong experionce/potential and Waghorn is a fantastic prospect. I'm just now a bit concerned that we have no idea what our best formation or side is - and could be ten...

    Matty Fryatt off for 1.5m

    Apparently to clear the deck and raise money for additional players. Wigan, Hull etc reported in today's Sun to be lining up for him as Sousa frees up funds. What do we think?

    Emile Heskey - surely Mandaric should bring him back

    He's retired from England duty and is on the market for £2m - with Blackburn bidding. He'd be exceptional in the championship and would do a lot of good work for Fryatt, Gallagher and Campbell (a great trio if Campbell sorts his head out) He stumped up cash when we were in the mire and is...

    Gradel and Howard for Beckford

    We should offer Gradel and Howard + some cash for Beckford in my opinion. Gradel is clearly of value to Leeds currently, they love him. Howard is being slightly marginalised at leicester by the arrival of other strikers, but would still do a great job for Leeds in league one. He's also a...

    Max Gradel

    should be bought back to Leicester in my opinion. We've only got King, Wellens, Dyer and N'Guessan who are deemed actual midfield players and so if we've got a player excelling for Leeds on loan - he should be back for the bench. Pearson clearly doesn't fancy Adams - but surely he needs...

    Howard needs a rest....

    For me the team is playing to his strengths at the momement rather than its own. Oakley, wellens, king, n'guessan adams and dyer are all pass and move players who thrive off knocking it into feet and shifting the point of attack quickly. Knocking long to howard doesn't get the best out...

    Name a big signing that paid off for Leicester

    Our history of signing big players is littered with some absolute disasters (or at the worst, terrible dissapointments) that were so called BIG signings. Success for Leicester has always come from one or two home grown alongside the astute, frugal signings that we didn't know the value of...

    The Australian Cricket Team...

    Joey Barton
