Nice preview @chicoazul
Best thing about Leicester were the clubs and DJs back in the day. Nod to DJ SS

Although its customary to rip, I think a bit of respect is also due. Anyone who upsets this Sky Big 4/5 procession / obsession is alright by me, so long may Leicester causing havoc continue (after this weekend), and hoping they occupy one of the European specs come the end of the season, not at our expense but the RS obviously.

4-0 win for us. Del and Rom with the usual massacre of opposition defenders and Stones and Mori to best Vardy.
 
Normally I would write something half arsed and derogatory here, but I must admit it can't be easy writing this sort of utter tripe every week ! There I go again, I just can't help myself.
Thanks mate, I really appreciate you writing these as they are always top notch and very funny. Merry Christmas to you and your family and have a cracking New Year.
Cheers Donald.

your forgetting the good old pork pie and king richard the 3rd :)

Anyways good afternoon all leicester fan here. in peace btw

Looking forward to this game as i think it could be a bit of a humdinger , ive always liked everton style of play and really thought you would break the top 4 a while back and when moyes left you seemed to lose your way but now your coming back strong with a very good team .

regards the match i fully expect you to have loads of possession just like every game we play the amount of people who say well we had more possession so should have won is amazing . the thing is this is how leicester play we seem to give up possession in favour of energy and endless chasing about in order to be able to counter so quick for 90 mins . i read a post on here saying about parking the bus and you might not be far wrong ive yet to see us really dominate against a team who sits very deep and uses the counter against us.

i would say the way arsenal played and beat us was the right way they seemed to let us counter but then re counter with pace and skill and with delfeou,barkley and lukaku that could be a possibility.

In your favour 2 very important players will be out for us in drinkwater and huth who has been immense at the back and i expect to see benalouane come in who has only had a few mins on the pitch this season and also gokan inler in the middle who is technically very good and does the simple things well but he seems to have really not coped well with the pace of the prem and has had limited chances .

as for the danger men well you all know about vardy and mahrez and i would say mahrez is the real threat if baines plays then his lack of match fitness could tell in the second half and allow mahrez the space to shine. but for me 2 key players who fall under the radar are kante and albrighton . kante is a real pest in the middle and breaks up play very well and in albrighton he can deliver some lovely crosses into the box.

im hoping ulloa starts instead of okazaki as that gives us some aeriel threat on your back 4 and knock downs to vardy .

CAN WE CONTINUE OUR TOP OF THE TABLE STREAK

I really dont know most normal leicester fans will tell you that they would be happy with avoiding relegation and improving on last years performance by finishing 6th-9th . only the dreamy kids are talking about playing barcelona in next years champions league final lol .

Its a funny league this year as it seems some of the bigger players have joined clubs you wouldnt expect and the big teams have not exactley bought massive bar united lol , this has created a situation where most games are pretty close and no longer a result is nailed on causing teams to drop points you would not expect.

If we keep vardy and mahrez fit and at the club by the end of jan then its possible we could hold on for top 4 or 5 it depends on the owners if they want to give it a good go and spend some money in jan to push for 1-4 . regardless the fact were more or less safe and were having fun along the way is good enough for me .

THE GAME

The die hard dreamer will say were going to smash you 4-0 with a vardy hatrick

the average leicester fan who is level headed will say they would be happy with a draw

ME its close to call as huth is not playing and drinkwater i feel will lead to space in the middle to create chances and a lack of match time between benny and morgan as a partnership could lead to confusion some times but our fighting spirit and determination will see us come from behind for a draw . i think you will go 1-0 up first half and then we will get an equilizer half way through 2nd half and just manage to defend it .

anyways enjoy the game hope your season goes well and have a merry xmas
 
I hope RM is up for this and will not fiss about with silly subbings. Not sure about the team but RM should develop a nasty ruthless streak.

Pork Pie was Melton Mowbray, so that's one less thing for them. Played a few gigs at seperate venues there before, in particular "the shed". Cold, desolate places that sap the life out of you, and make you question your own existence, although the musician was a good place to play.

Me old mans going to this game, sat behind a piller, so I hope for his sake we put in a decent performance and get a good result. 2-1 to the toffees
