Leicester (A) Boxing Day - Premier League - 20:00

[Creator Supreme]

Twelvety Nil to the Foxes, Vardy Steptoe with all 12!

[magicrat]

I would take a point now if I'm honest.  I doubt our lads will even get a proper training session in before the game and they will be knackered after playing 12 men for two hours last night.

Teams train late on Christmas Day these days.

Outstanding 

[El Rojo]

A win in this one and we’ll all be dry-brining our turkeys until the new year. 

[manwiththestick]

Anything but a win and Christmas is ruined for me.

[Megadrive Man]

Same team as the one we put out against Villa in the milk cup?

[aRdja]

 

[Elite]

Not feeling that confident about this one, it's arguably out 2nd hardest fixture coming at the worst possible time.

 

This team are very capable of getting a win but a draw wouldn't be the end of the world.

 

[dockers_strike]

Leicester have always been a bogey team for us. That said, we've had a longer break after the World Final than I thought we'd get. Yes, Id take a draw now but this team, oh boy, they are something else and I wouldnt bet on them.

[Leyton388]

We'll win.

[scudger99]

Boxing Night will be Foxing Night.

Do whatever it takes to get 3 points and keep the pressure on.

[TheDrowningMan]

I’m not feeling good about this at all. A draw would be a brilliant result.

[Tj hooker]

This team has balls of steel I know the schedule has been against us but if any team can go there and get 3 points it's this one

Whoscored playing a 4-4-2  -- blerts

[El Rojo]

I think that new world title will give us even more confidence and energy going into this one. Even an injury crisis doesn’t knock us off our stride.

 

Vardy’s a fantastic striker but look who he’s up against. 

[Jordy Brouwer]

Are we allowed by the FA to deploy our special "we're better than you" badges yet?

The Premier League doesn’t allow them. So we can wear them in the CL & make a request to do so in the FA Cup.

There is an appeal being made to the Premier League based on the fact that Real Madrid had them on their shirts during la liga. 

[Numero Veinticinco]

If - if - we win this, we will be so unbelievably difficult to stop.

[Ronnie Whelan]

Horrible game this, but if we come through it with three points, it will be a gigantic result.

[Guest]

City beat them 3-1. If we don't win by at least 3 clear goals, our front three can join the current World Club Cup winners. 

[coachpotato]

The City result will show whether Leicester have the balls to stay the distance or not as they’ll need to bounce back to keep up, nothing less than a win will do for them.

They’ll have to attack us, we don’t need to attack them, it’s made for us to be patient and pick them off.

Vardy is their key player, either scoring or making chances for others, he’s easily riled so someone should be into his ear all the time, he’ll react and could get sent off.

We should be wary of his simulation though, he’s got that “drag the boot onto the defender” thing down to a fine art and has kidded many referees with it.

Given the travelling we’ve done, a draw might be a good enough result for us.

I thought if we can get through this fixture and the others and still be six points clear going into the cup game vs Everton then we’d be doing ok.

[Lario]

If we don’t win this, I’m cancelling Amazon Prime. 
 

Don’t let me down lads.
