Match Thread Leicester v Manchester City (league cup)

[Feriol]

Iheanacho starting to look like he has some fire in his belly. King and Iborra starting to settle. Gray or Mahrez for Fuchs and put Chillwell at left back, would be the obvious change. Possibly Ulloa for Okazaki?

Take Okazaki off, he’s done very well and unsettled them.

No reason we can’t score against this line-up, but they’ll still score more

Well, at least the powers that be at football will be happy, because Arsenal are winning too. God help us that another non-top-6 team gets near the final.

Shinji and Nacho should be all over Bravo every time he has the ball at his feet.

You'd also expect Vardy, having scored his only premier league hat-trick against Bravo, would be bothering Puel to get at him again

 

[Feriol]

Mahrez didn't look happy.

No John Stones to help this time!

Dragovic scares the bejesus out of me. He seems to panic every time the ball comes near him.

Mahrez and Vardy on. Iheanacho and Albrighton off.

Somebody give that man a job!

Sol, Sol Bamba!!

Vardy really is a phenomenal asset.

 

[glyn]

Vardy really is a phenomenal asset.

Really should have played from the start here.

 

[LoopisDeLupis]

Why, when they can be retrospectively punished, does it feel like players are diving significantly more this season? Is it just that we're more aware?

Stats anyone?

 

[popillius]

Oh Fuchs. Fuchs, Fuchs, Fuchs. Your time is up son.

 

[glyn]

Oh Fuchs. Fuchs, Fuchs, Fuchs. Your time is up son.

Yup. Whatever people think about Chilwell, Fuchs doesn’t offer us anything more solid defensively right now.

 

[Blaarev]

Oh Chilwell......

 

[Lako42]

Oh Chilwell......

Too much losing the ball, too much nearly, too much nonchalance


Plenty to learn
