Pre Match Leicester v Club Brugge

[Lako42]

I'd trade the whole competition for a team that cares about the league.

Boring

I'd trade the whole competition for a team that cares about the league.

We were awful Saturday, and have been in the league, but to trade champions league football this season for 4/5 places in the league? Ridiculous.
And just as a point - the higher up we get, the closer we get to European football. So, you'd sacrifice top-level European football to get closer to ... slightly worse European football?

How does that make sense then?

 

[Blaarev]

Anyway....Looking forward to this one. The first ever CL-game I'll be watching from the stands.

he isn't, Kings passing range is just as good but he doesn't hit a 60 yard ball the their CBs 5 times a game so he "can't pass"

What are you smoking? King slows everything down with sideways passing AKA David Batty style ! King panics on the ball and lacks vision I agree dropping DD but only as he needs a break he has been our most effective player by a country mile.

Slimani still out for tomorrow.

Looks like it's the speedy team that can't head a ball then. Let's hope they don't just punt the ball up front at every opportunity.

What happened to his miraculous recovery that BN said he would make for this game?

 

[Robin127]

It all sounds fishy to me, there's obviously more to it...

If Ulloa is fit he should start in place of Slimani.

Oh Jesus has it really come to that?

I think he spent the night with Mendy.

That's not a bad idea. We're only playing Brugge and Ulloa was an important part of our title winning team but I didn't think he was fit.

 

[FIF]

So winning the group could get us a match against Real Madrid, Bayern Munich or PSG. Let's start hoping for Benefica right now.

Has it really come to Ulloa? The player who played a big part in keeping us in the prem, and scored the goals that won us huge games last season?

Why has everyone forgotten that Ulloa is not completely shit and does actually have something to offer?

The only winner he scored was at home against Norwich.

 

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

Brugge have scored once and conceded 10. Sounds like the perfect game to push Ulloa up into their area. Have Vardy and Okazaki either side of him to pull the defenders away to give him room.

Hernandez and Fuchs to launch big throws into Ulloa, Morgan and Huth. If we got desperate, we could even include Schmeichel as an outfield player to cause havoc in their penalty area! He is a similar size to Morgan.

Yes he did play a big part in keeping us in the prem...two seasons ago. Let's get Gary Lineker in the team - he was good once.

When you spend circa £50m on strikers and you end up crying out for Ulloa, it's worrying times.

Ulloa cost a ****ing fortune

Ulloa cost a ****ing fortune

But he doesn't score goals so that's not alright with me.
