Chap of Steel Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I have just seen a few news articles about a closed doors friendly against Leicester that took place at Bodymoor Heath earlier today. We lost 3-2. Apparently Leicester fielded a strong side but I can't find anything about our squad. Anyone seen anything else about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyvilla Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Hamer, Simpson, Elder, Cambiasso, Wasilewski, Pearson, Taylor-Fletcher, James, Wood, Powell, Knockaer , was the leicester team , cant find anything about villa , i also have no idea how strong the Leicester team is.

HanoiVillan Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 That's a fairly reasonable Leicester team, although you'd only expect Cambiasso to be in the first XI after the international break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodytom Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 That's a fairly reasonable Leicester team, although you'd only expect Cambiasso to be in the first XI after the international break. In other words it's 10 reserve/squad players, plus cambiasso. I'd make that a pretty weak Leicester team myself . We always lose to Leicester anyway, unless it's the league cup and chris sutton is up top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the players on the fringes of the first team, bit like us fielding Bacuna/Sanchez/Okore etc. Was that not obvious? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Yes, thank you, that was exactly what I meant. Guess I wasn't clear enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted October 9, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted October 9, 2014 Yes, thank you, that was exactly what I meant. Guess I wasn't clear enough. It was perfectly clear, seeing as you specifically clarified that you wouldn't expect any of them to be in the first XI apart from Cambiasso.

Not sure why that means I can't disagree with him, which is all my post does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodytom Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Yes, thank you, that was exactly what I meant. Guess I wasn't clear enough. You were perfectly clear Hanoivillan. I just wouldn't see that as a fairly reasonable side. Not because of the way you described it, but coz my dad and brother in law are Leicester fans so I'm influenced by them a bit. Apologies if I wasn't clear and if my post was viewed as a negative reaction to yours (which given other posters comments, it clearly was).

chappy Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Anyone know who played for us? I'm guessing Benteke, Gabby and Okore got run outs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skarroki Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Wondering who scored for us too. Maybe this will go down as one of the biggest mysteries of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodigan Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 who is this benteke? sounds like a bit of a prospect - think he could break through into the first team... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Irrelevant, it wasn't even a "reasonable" Leicester side. Joking aside, great to see the big man back amongst the goals. When he first scores for the big club again the place will erupt. Could be on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Even in reserve matches he scores loads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
