Eenie meanie miney mo...

Daka's in over Iheanacho.

At least Iversen has some good protection in front of him

Oh, hold on a minute….

Why, is he wearing a dobber?

 

[homer]

Well there’s a great big hopeless dobber at the centre of his defence

Hope Marcal-Madivadua and Brunt enjoyed the time on the team coach. They won’t be anywhere near the pitch.

 

[Volpone]

Why does my heart sink when I see Amartey in the back four?

 

[homer]

5/6 home win

Dip yer bread

 

[Brown Nose]

Good luck to Iversen.

He's been at the club since January 2016 and has evolved very well as a keeper.

He's no kid. He's 25 and has over 150 senior appearances. I think he's excellent at what matters - his two main attributes are his saves and his physical presence. He isn't great with his feet so overplaying will expose him.

His ceiling as a keeper is much higher than with Ward. I truly hope he does well today and settles that position for the rest of the season. If he can provide some belief back there, it may lead to some confidence growth in those in front of him.

It's a lot to ask of the lad, but we really need him to step up.

The club has not had a good time in London in the last few days.
The women lost at Tottenham on Wednesday.
The under 21s lost 3-1 at Tottenham last night.
The under 18s have just lost 5-1 at Palace.

So I'm going for a 3-1 win for the Foxes...

Can’t understand why Mendy is constantly dropped. He’s the only bloke who could hold possession in that midfield

Could be a long afternoon

My best guess is that Brentford are very strong at set pieces so having Ndidi in there, as well as going for a bigger keeper, seems to me to be a reaction to that.

**** makes the right decision in dropping Ward and the completely wrong decision in playing CalAmartey.

I don’t care if Soyuncu trains like a petulant teenager or a ****ing crack addict, ****ing play him you stubborn ****.

 

[taupe]

Word on the street is that Iversen is getting the nod over Ward.

 

[Miles Away]

Sure, whatever.

 

[popillius]

Daka at one end, Amartey at the other.
****ing awful

 

[Singapore Fox]

Second best all over the pitch

 

[Rock Fox]

Have they scored yet?
Have we had a shot yet?

 

[Orifice]

I think there is a greater chance of a Leicester player scoring an Own-Goal than a goal for us.

 

[homer]

Shocking how completely dominant they are

Painful to watch
