    Not declaring defeat. Just reckon we might lose this one as we'll play into their hands similar to wba.

    Like I say, I hope I'm wrong, but that's how I can see it going.

    Wonder who will be rested...

    Oddly, I can't see us losing. They'll come to try and beat us; we beat that style.

    Think we stand a better chance than wba. They will play football.

    Because he is being praised as if he different to the others!

    Praising him on his ability and improved form is fair enough. But saying Fonte could take a leaf out of his book is amusing.

    Hopefully our crossing will include several hard and low types, and not lots of high floated ones, that Huth and Morgan will be favourites for.

    Maybe. But WTF, he'll be wearing red and white stripes this weekend, so he gets my vote.

    We've all seen his calamities. But someone did pull up a thread from 3 years ago about Fonte being our worst player. Players can improve and can even become great, that's not crazy talk. He's playing well and he has VVD alongside him to give extra confidence.

    He's only popular because you like him though.

    Hoping we put out our strongest available team (although that could be debateable!), as I think it will be better to have momentum and three games in 12 days isn't too bad. Hoping we can win this.

    I'm not sure about this. I think they'll sit back, let us dominate the ball and then hoof it to Vardy.

    No prediction, as I'm awful at it.

    Me too. This is the man who said Leicester would never win the league, Koeman would never got to Everton, Brexit wouldn't happen, Trump wouldn't happen...

    Can you also predict we won't win the League Cup for us?

    Maybe a new username is in order then? :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Went to a Leicester game a few years ago when they were bottom of the league and a mate put a £5 on us to win 4-0.
    Kicked off and 15 mins later we were 2-0 down.

    2-1 JRod to get one. Possibly a hope more than a prediction. May put something on it
