MWARLEY2 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 They don't seem to have that many coaches . Mike Stowell is the most experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 It'll be a cautious team we play against, who'll play tough to beat, but still need to fancy us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 It's pretty much the same as when we went to Everton last season. They had Duncan Ferguson in as caretaker and then gave Lampard the job on the following Monday. They'll come at us for first 20 minutes but keep it 0-0 and then get infront and I think we'll be o.k. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Doesn't change anything. The pressure is all on their players. If we play like we can do we will win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke313 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Might change Emery’s preparation a bit, more of an unknown now with whoever is taking charge. Leicester forum is a bit more upbeat now, compared to a few hours ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWARLEY2 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 The feeling from their fans is that it will lift a huge cloud. Kind of like us when we battered Brentford. Fans will be up for it as well. We will see what our team are made of on Tuesday now. An unleashed Leicester vs the Villa. Also Maddison has been shit in recent games as if he doesnt want to get injured and ruin a move in the summer . A good barometer of where we are as a team coming up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 The first twenty minutes are key. I say we go out and blitz them. But we have to take our chances unlike the game at Villa Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They beat us with Rodgers before , was everyone thinking we were going to demolish them if Rodgers was still there? Emery will adjust. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Chicken Field Posted April 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2023 9 hours ago, mottaloo said: Can't lie; playing out from the back and drawing the opposition onto us makes me very nervous especially when the likes of Tyrone has an occasional, over-casual brain fart in his locker or one of the back four/five slips. It just invites pressure. Sure, it looks great when it works and progress is made up the park but I just don't like it. I agree.. Passing it around the back is basically just for making us look more attractive, it's dangerous and does not work, especially when Mings is playing. I mean, just look at our results since we started passing it around the back, clearly not working... 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigo Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 The nature of this league is such that every team has players that can hurt you, so you generally can't really consider any game either a gimme or a lost cause regardless of the situation that a team find themselves in. The thing with Leicester is that it's not like they struggle for goals and are out of ideas, they just can't defend through a combination of personnel and disorganisation. When a team loses their manager you'd be worried about playing them because they'll have more of a freedom about them e.g. Villa vs Brentford earlier this season, but that doesn't really apply to Leicester here so I doubt it'll be too different a game than if Rodgers were still there anyway. I'm just enjoying the run at the moment while it's happening, not going in with huge expectation but no reason another away win can't happen here. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would look for an improved Leicester. We were better in our first Gerrardless match. Eventually, that new freedom leads to a lack of structure, but for a game or two, going managerless is like going without pants. It feels freeing -- until it starts to chafe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two can play at that game, did I actually say that you said that it hadn't worked? It is very easy to, apparently, misread you post. In fact, you definitely did not imply anything positive in you post what so ever and sound incredibly negative, towards playing around at the back and our "brain farting" defenders. The only thing that you mention, that is actually positive, you've made sound like a negative thing by saying "it just invites pressure", which is exactly the intention when playing at the back like that.
