Yeah, Abdul definitely starts, Praet shouldn’t get anywhere near the ****ing stadium, let alone the squad, so hopefully Yunus next to Dewberries - and I think he’ll put Cannon up top
 
Oh great. Another boring game against a lower team.

A tiresome tedious game where we have 65% possession, have 12 goal attempts (5 on target), score 3 goals, frustrate the opposition for 75 minutes and win comfortably.

Where's the fun in that?

Exactly
 
Think he'll rotate Daka and Cannon for the next few games, with Vardy as an impact sub if needed

Iheanacho can cut up the half time oranges
 
Looking forward to seeing the new lad

I wish I didn't agree but I do, a little bit. Look how ungrateful we've become.

I don't think anyone at all is arguing that we are not dominant.

But - another metaphor - nobody went to Oppenheimer expecting an amazing Disney film but came out saying "I am so glad that won an Oscar".

Most fans go to football games to experience a bit of jeopardy, character from the players, some things that don't work, some things that do, and a bit of something to get excited about. Not many people would just shell out £40 every week for a win if there was nothing to watch. Would they..?
Would anyone on this forum pay £40 for a guaranteed win every time in a normal league game if the football was played behind closed doors?

Enzo is doing amazingly but it's not the most exciting football in the world is it...
 
Stoke City are winless in seven league games against Leicester City (D4 L3) since a 1-0 away win in the Premier League back in January 2015.

Leicester City are looking to complete a league double over Stoke for the first time since the 1989-90 season.

Since a three-game winning run in October, Stoke have won just two of their last 15 Championship matches (D7 L6) and have lost their last two.

Leicester have only lost one of their last 14 games in all competitions (W10 D3), although it was in their last away game at Coventry, a 3-1 defeat.

This will be Steven Schumacher’s 102nd league match in charge in the Football League (94 at Plymouth, 7 at Stoke) but he has never previously lost three successive league matches as a manager.
