Sho Time Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I can't see us getting better than a draw, and yes we probably will get beat, but I'm actually looking forward to a NUFC game for a change - it's something I haven't felt in a long time.

sempuki Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Mahrez looks fine to play sadly. Hope he has an off night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Credit to all of you looking forward to this. Personally, despite the fact I am normally an optimist, just feel as though it's gonna be the same old story which is either abject defeat or unwarranted defeat. Either way I can't see us getting anything. I think most people still expect us to lose, it's just nice to have an interest in the game for once.

Hanshithispantz Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I just want to see some kind of change, especially as it's away from home where we've been abject all season. If we fashion a single chance I'll be over the moon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I literally have no idea who will line-up, how we'll perform or what the score will be. Nerves kicking in already, bit early for the first beer though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 This place will explode when the team is announced and we have Gouf and Colback at CM with Perez left back and Riv leading the attack Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elma Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I literally have no idea who will line-up, how we'll perform or what the score will be. Nerves kicking in already, bit early for the first beer though I'm not nervous for this one, strangely. Nowt to lose I guess. The only negative result would be an absolute hiding. Sunday is much more important and I probably won't be able to eat on the morning before the game. Unfortunately I'm GMT+2 which will make it even worse waiting till half three for kick off.

Guest diddimz Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 First time in a long time I've been excited for us to play, even if we don't get a result from it I think we're going to see more effort then we have for a long time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Need to dampen my excitement like, the guy has had a couple of days to pick a team. Going to try and not get too angry when I see Colback playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varadi Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Going to be such an interesting tactical battle - Leicester struggle to break teams down who sit back and defend deep, which is almost certainly what we're going to do, just remains to be seen if we can offer any real threat going forward. Really think we could use some pace up front, wouldn't be totally surprised to see Doumbia get a game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbnufc Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Seen a few people on other sites expecting some radical new team/line up and are excited because of that prospect. I mean, the team is surely gonna be pretty much what we've seen in the past weeks, unless Marveaux or Obertan suddenly appear Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Could really do with getting something out of the game tonight - I think a point would make such a difference going into the Sunderland match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DonaldGrump Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I am sorry to say we will get stuffed this evening as others say the following two matches are the ones....it is Newcastle however so winning at Leicester tonight before being humped by the Mackems and Norwich would only be mildly surprising.

George Bailey Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Such a weird sensation: actually being excited about watching us and also giving two hoots about the result. Don't expect to get anything from this game,would be massive bonus even coming away with 1 point. However, I think we will see Rafa setting his stall out for how he sees things from the get go. Can't be any worse than we have been, so I am excited! Next two games after this decide everything imo. HTL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Not expecting a great deal off two training sessions tbh, as great as Rafa is. As long as we get a semblance of organisation and effort i'll be happy, Sunday is what matters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Rafa will try and keep us compact and competitive tonight. The huge problem with that is that their midfield is harder working than ours and Mahrez and Vardy will tear us open wide the moment we lose our shape. Janmaat will be told not to bomb forward and I pray for Taylor, whoever and Dummett. I think he'll play Mitro as a lone striker hoping he can hold the ball up otherwise we risk simply spending all game giving the ball back to them. I can't see us scoring from open play (ha ha as is we ever do away from home) but I would try exposing Simpson somehow. Anita could we'll find himself in front of the back four or be told to man mark Mahrez. Personally, I wouldn't be starting Gini tonight as Leicester are the type of team where he will be completely anonymous (more so than usual) away from home. As mad as it sounds I'd be half tempted to play Squidward, purely because of his pace and play Sissoko inside and tell him if he's not at the races by half time he'll be off. I'd be telling Anita to get Shelvey on the ball and for Shelvey to keep hitting Squidward or Mitro and for Sissoko to join up and be the force he should be. We're not going to be pretty to watch tonight and Rafa will play whoever he thinks will run through walls for 90 minutes and who will stay rigid to his plan. It'll be interesting to see how vocal we are on the pitch tonight. Rafa has this game to see a reaction and start planning for next Sunday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
