Lord Willard Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I feel like we'll lose this. So by Villa fashion we'll win this 3-0. We all get over the top of dreaming of European footie to then lose to Leeds. The whole team is out of form minus Martinez. They're playing well and Barnes will have a field day against Elmo. I think the line up will be the same but Elmo and Trez in for Cash and Traore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered why the sad face so I googled and he was the ref that gave the Luiz pen at United and gave then overturned the Trez pen against Brighton. He was also the ref when we lost 4-0 at the King Power last season and gave a pen against us. However, he was also the ref with the faulty Hawkeye watch so possibly now thinks he owes a lifetime of dodgy decisions against. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Would be happy with a draw for this one. Leicester are on good form but remember last years league cup games, you never know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd play Nakamba in this one to offer the defence some protection. Also drop Barkley for either Samson or Ramsey. Said it many times but the extra rest we get over other teams doesn't seem to have a positive effect. Doubt them playing Europa will do anything, we'll still be lethargic like we have in last few games. You are right....rest don't seem to benefit us.

I think there is more than Elmo that does that.....but i get your point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the line up will be the same but Elmo and Trez in for Cash and Traore. I actually thought 15 minutes aside they were actually quite disappointing against Liverpool. Yes they were playing the champions but until they scored they were easily second best and lucky to still be in the game. Prior to that they had won 1 in 4 and that included defeats to Leeds and a draw against wolves. They are a good team with a strong squad. But their form in terms of points is similar to ours.

est1874 Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Could see us getting a spanking in this. Leicester look as strong as they did the year they won the league and the side we beat early in the season was missing some of their best players. I'll say 2-1 to them but I do fear worse.

Popular Post OutByEaster? Posted February 18, 2021 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2021 Leicester are going full strength for tonight's Europa game. I presume that's fuelled by the confidence that comes from the extra five minutes rest they now have for the 14:05 kick off. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Very surprised they are that strong bearing in mind their collapse last season. They absolutely should have got Champions League and the blow up was incredible. Well, there's no excuse if they look fresher on Sunday. Oh, wait, we all had Covid. Excuses for all.

Had been ineffective. Think Maddison was getting kicked all over the place so taken off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox1884 Posted February 18, 2021 Visiting Supporter Share Posted February 18, 2021 I take it back guys, Grealish has nothing when it comes to diving compared to those we played tonight bloody hell Be interesting to see how knackered we are after that, wouldn't say we went 100% effort in but Slavia played well Our lineup will likely be very similar to tonights Schmeichel Castagne, Evans, Soyuncu, Ricardo Tielemans, Ndidi Albrighton, Maddison, Barnes Vardy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
