Reply With QuoteWill we? Is the big question. We know that if we play like we did against Chelsea and Saints we will completely overpower Leicester. But will we, (No one had an answer to us in those last two games) I really hope so! COYB!

Once you start having a scintilla of hope things start to go wrong!
When you have virtually no hope it's easy to play in a relaxed manner as we have recently but talk of a "Great Escape" brings added tension and pressure along with the fact our opponents are playing for Champion's League.
I expect a defeat tonight, you don't suddenly go from losing week in, week out to winning 3,4,5,6,7 matches on the bounce.
Leicester are a very good side and we are flakey at best and often hopeless.
It's the hope that kills you.

Fat Sam certainly knows how to pick a team and a formation most weeks.
No raised eyebrows,you look at it and you go “yep”.......hard to argue with that.
Even Gallagher can’t get in because other players are doing a better job for the TEAM.
Funny how consistent line ups seem to get results.
In 78-79 I think we used 14 players and two of them only got an odd game.
Funny how good we were in those days.

What makes the task even harder is : 1/ We have to beat the team 2/ We have to beat the Ref & 3/ We have to beat VAR.

Were doing ok but were not winning any ariel balls or getting first to every ball. Need to up the anti.

Diagne has been pathetic so far so let's hope that he goes and scores a spectacular goal now!
