100 percent spot on.
Does NP need any more convincing about Albrighton or Cambiasso??? Cambiasso was excellent. Broke it down and was clever with ball and it showed with his back heel to Albrighton for the cross that led to the goal.
We aren't dead and buried by any means and there's still 16 matches to go which is 48 points to play for, but my word there didn't look like any sort of spirit or confidence there.
We beat Stoke and Man Utd and then had an awful run.
Now we've lost to Stoke and Man Utd.
Let's hope it does the reverse of what it did last time.

Leicester City v Crystal Palace
The previous thread has closed.
What do you reckon? With the signing of Barry Hayles on deadline day, I'm going for 1-0 win on that awful pitch of ours.
In all seriousness, we've surely prioritised a win for this. I think it could be a very open game given Palace's change of style under Pardew. Thankfully they are missing probably two of their best players who've caused us issues in the past. Jedinak and Bolasie are both out.
I think we will be looking at the same back four with the probable swap of Konchesky for De Laet. Midfield needs major surgery after last week. Upfront, here's hoping Vardy is set to rest with Ulloa partnering either Nugent or Kramaric. Whatever the line-up I do hope that the atmosphere is that of positivity than the misery which City fans love to force upon all.

Don't know how that happened. According to the logs I closed it. Boooo. Jeff out!

Lets hope we turn up then, if they roll out the shit they did against Stoke there will be a dwindling amount of goodwill, even more so now that Pearson has made it clear this is the big game.
Thank **** Jedinak is out, despite coming up against him many times we have failed to cope withtime.on every occasion.
Hoping its open as we usually do okay, although Palace press hard which we dont like.
Cambiasso has got to play, without fail.

I just hope Vardy is out of the starting line-up. No more of the this Ulloa on the bench nonsense, please.

I would go for the same except I'd play Albrighton instead of Mahrez and bring Mahrez on during the second half. He needs to get back to Premier League action but slowly. And he will hopefully catch the Palace defence tiring at that stage

This is what I'm hoping for - first game of the season for me so I definitely want to see the likes of Cambiasso playing.
I decided that I am going to go to the game on Saturday - my brother was a big Leicester fan and I feel like he'd still want me to go.
I'm not sure I've ever seen Leicester win at home but hopefully this weekend will change that - I hope my brother's looking on and they give a good performance for him to see... And get us a much needed win! A comforting win would go a long way for me and I'm hoping football can be a lift.

Good idea - but actually it doesn't. Pearson picks it which normally makes things more difficult.
Difficult game - but hopefully a win which is about as badly needed as one could be.
