[Peter Doherty (AGAIG)]

Despise these cunts. I'd love to see them get relegated. Shithouse graceless fans turned gangster on the man who won them the league and big-time Charlie players who think they're something. Hope we fuck them up for the rest of the season.

Any news on fitness concerns for Fabian and raheem

Any news on fitness concerns for Fabian and raheem

I don't think we will get any info until peps presser later this afternoon.

Hope Fabian is ok. He's become an important team member for us

Any news on fitness concerns for Fabian and raheem

Well if the spuds trio that missed England's games through "injury" are set to play this weekend then I'm guessing all is good with Raheem and Fabian.

Delph likely out says Pep. Aguero and Sterling ok. Kompany a possibility. Danilo LB Kompany CB?

[blues2win]

Pep actually says could play Mangala, Walker or Kompany at CB, Mad to play Walker I would have thought. Lose his pace and power down the right. If Kompany’s match fit he should play. Otherwise it’s Mangala with fingers crossed. Can he deal with Vardy’s pace? He actually has pace himself but lacks confidence.

He dealt well with him at their place in their title winning season, him and Otter barely gave them a sniff.

I suppose Delph being out means Danilo at LB until Delph is fit to play again. That's ok with the Otter at CB after tomorrow. It's a straight choice between Mangala and Tosin unless Fern drops back and Gundo takes the midfield role whichi I think is the best option.

Lawro playing the probabilities again. Seven 2-0 wins predicted - including us. There is a guy following his gut instinct!

What about this blonde kid that he played left-back against Wolves? No one think he’ll play him there today?

[PeterParker]

I think this will be our real first test after what we expected happend, and that is Delphinho getting injured.

We need to win here after what happend in the last couple of seasons versus them.

Don't think Zinchenko is a likely starter but he certainly trained last night with the travelling squad, unlike Kompany it seems. Didn't see Gundogan on the OS clip either. Worryingly, I have more than my usual sense of dark foreboding about this game.
In fact I think we're gonna lose, it has to happen and today's the day. Sorry

I think Zinchenko is an attacking left sided midfielder/forward. I don't think he is a defender although he did well there against Wolves. Not sure he would be picked at LB in a league game, especially as the CB S partnership is changing too.

[zuricity]

Where we have improved as a team this year and Pep deserves credit for this , is every player gets involved in breaking down the oppositions play and winning the ball back when we do not have possession.
Particulary with the pressing by defenders.

If we continue today with this approach to the game , we will win .

[london blue 2]

Come on city!

Too much pressure on our winning streak......if we draw today , and I think we will , then Ill take it.

Yes, me too. Tosin is playing for the kids today so he's not in the Leicester squad btw.
