Match Thread Manchester City v Leicester

[Blue Maniac]

There are 38 players named in the goal scorer market for this match.

The 38th name is Amartey. Got to have a cheeky little bet on that.

Number 37 is Julian Joachim.

5/1 for KDB to have +0.5 shots on target in each half.

That's where my money has gone

5/1 for KDB to have +0.5 shits on target in each half.

Dodgy curry last night then?

Surely that's at least a yellow card each time?

 

[FOX Franks]

Anyone else find it quite disrespectful that it’s Manchester CITY vs Leicester CITY and yet the commentary team are only referring to one as “city”?

 

[fox58]

Watching this in France, they keep talking about City, I’m sure they don’t realise that two cities are playing. The programme is even billed as Manchester City v Leicester

 

[Blaarev]

if Hoffenheim and Kramaric can do that to Bayern M, why can’t LCFC and Vardy do something simidlar to ManC

I would like to believe that players can earn their way back into contention, I hope this is the case.

Pre match interview BR said he’s been consistently building up fitness over the past few months and impressed against Arsenal.

Well he’s not going to say “I’m trying to make my director of football look like a twat” is he?

 

[glyn]

And so it begins

bollocks

 

[Singapore Fox]

can’t wait to see plan B....

 

[Miles Away]

Hahahahaha.

5 at the back will work a treat now...

 

[Lako42]

Im going for at least 5 for them

 

[M17TT C]

****s sake.

Shouldn't have left him unmarked but it was some strike!

 

[camberwell fox]

We gave him the freedom of the box. Great strike though.

 

[Miles Away]

When it comes to playing the ‘big’ teams you are bang on. He’s a wimp.

Here we go.

 

[Brown Nose]

So, the plan is 5-4-1:

Schmeichel
Castagne Amartey Evans Soyuncu Justin
Praet Tielemans Mendy Barnes
Vardy

The issues with this are myriad. Who is getting on the ball? Where are the outlet passes? How do we stop their full backs from overloading the wide areas? Who supports Vardy? And so on.

It is bewildering stupid to set up in a way that completely depends on us not conceding. Now it's a training exercise for Man City.

What a waste of everybody's afternoon.

 

[Feriol]

We are so deep, it's embarrassing. Far too scared
