Demitri_C Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Well buffon has said he would rather play any side other than leciester which very bizarre. If you had the choice of Barcelona who just come back from a 4-0 deficit or leciester city I know who I would want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 2 hours ago, TrentVilla said: I can't help but think Leicester are going to get an absolute spanking of someone in the next round. Maybe but many thought that would happen against Seviilla. If they play with the same intensity they did last night, they will be competitive. The defences of both Barcelona and Real Madrid have been found wanting at times this season. when teams stand up to them and play like Deportivo at the weekend and Las palmas against Real they showed you can beat them.

VillaChris Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 No way are Huth and Morgan shutting out the Barca or Real Madrid front three. Juventus game would be amusing as Leicester could just go back to pulling shirts at corners as that's what Chellini and Bonnuci will be doing. Their best chance would be if Man. City go through given what they did earlier this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Leciester would get battered by real Madrid Munich or Barcelona. Wouldn't be surprised if monaco get through if it's leciester vs monaco next round. Might stick a tenner on Leicester Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't imagine they will be getting to the final, they really are a spent force, despite that epic turn around (which still needed an extremely dodgy pen to happen).

bobzy Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Absolute quality - fair play Leicester. Potential QF line-up is: Atletico Madrid Barcelona Bayern Munich Borussia Dortmund Juventus Manchester City Real Madrid and Leicester City. Just look at the state of it.

If 2 years ago you were to tell me we'd win the PL and be in the CL QF's...but would be relegated. I'd take it no question. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Pep has to really be hoping not to draw Leicester, but I really want to see it. He was so stubborn with his tactics which were absolutely abused by leicester. I'd love to see another Vardy hat trick but this time in the quarters. Winnable: City Maybe Winnable: Atletico Madrid, Dortmund Loss: Barca, Bayern, Juve, Real Madrid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they would be quite happy to meet them. A lot of talk about Kante but I've been hugely impressed with Ndidi in the last few games and he's only 20.

VillaChris Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Are we at the stage now where the gloryhunting kids down the street support Leicester?! Amazing that they're the last English team standing in the European cup. Not quite 5000/1 but you'd have got decent odds on that in August.

PaulC Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 They don't play like other English sides do in Europe. Maybe that's the key! Credit to them to be our last hope. Sad indictment for the Premier League that only little Leicester are left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
