STM Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Not looking forward to this. Although it will be a refreshing change to have a side actually attack us. Might actually allow us to break. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Think this’ll be a genuinely good game. Break aside both in-form and both like to pop it about and get on the front foot. Could go anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 (edited) Let’s fucking go man. Maddison’s last game in blue before the black and white switch. He’s going to play soft as fuck against his next team. Edited December 20, 2022 by cubaricho Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myleftboot Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Joelinton to drop to left midfield. ASM left of 3. Longstaff to keep his place cos I think Eddie likes his work rate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Hope Brendan’s left in floods of tears after this one. Joelinton on the scoresheet please Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingcrofty Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 I imagine ASM will be ok the bench again as Jow and Joe on the left seems to offer us a good amount away from home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's had no minutes since before the World Cup and didn't get any today either. I wouldn't be surprised if he's on the bench.

TheBrownBottle Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 I'm nervy about this one - I'll go for a 1-1 though a loss wouldn't be a shock by any means. Tough game this one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBottle Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Can anyone think of a particularly good NUFC Xmas / NY period? They're usually horrendous. My favourite was trips to Highbury and Elland Road in quick succession in 2001 - two of my favourite away days ever to this day.

Stottie Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 I'd normally have bad feelings about this game, but Eddie and the lads have been excellent at overcoming whatever doubts I have, usually based on performances under previous managers, perceived curses, and the like. We could have done with playing them in the first eight or so games of the season when the Brenda Nout stories abounded, but it mightn't make any difference. Some of Leicesters recent form has been due to easier fixtures, and we're not an easy fixture any more. They're undoubtedly on form though and have a talented squad, so it'll be a tough test.

SUPERTOON Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Do think the game last night will have helped us massively in preparation for this. That being said these are also flying and I would still say their attacking players are better than ours. Tough game and I think they will edge it. 2-0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
