    nope. Can’t be moaning about injuries.

    you know the two sides who have had most players/lost minuets to injuries? That’s right, not leicester. European football hasn’t helped I would say. But others have suffered more for losses to key players.

    All started with livpl last year crying about some minor knocks to a couple of their players being the reason for the worst title defence in history.

    Bound to have an effect on vulnerable other fans of clubs like Leicester.

    These sorts of excuses really should be banned tbph.

    Bring able to withstand a few injuries is part of what makes a good side these days.

    This is the thing. Every club get injuries. Fosse seems to think it's something that only affects Leicester.

    Makes for funny reading on here though seeing Munse predict Lesta's downfall, Fosse trying to belittle him for it and then it all coming to fruition <laugh>

    According to Fosse you're a great side of you play in that.? How do you qualify for it? Do you have to be so **** you're below newcastle or something?

    You also have to remember their manager didn't know what it was.

    Still, Leicester have done significantly better recently than most.
    Can’t deny that, but they are not even in the top 5 of injuries/time missing.

    The thing is that's exactly what's happened, but he's still not found the common courtesy to just say "you know what Munson you were were actually right about something"

    Hopefully one day he'll do it and I'll stop

    They done well in recent seasons, but as @remembercolinlee pointed out, they've actually blown decent league positions when they've capitulated towards the end of the season, which has cost them top 4 on a few occasions. So that tells you that they haven't got the mentality or squad depth to compete consistently

    This season they've been on the slide big time, and it looks like they've lose players like Tielemans and Maddison in the summer. Vardy is an old crock now and Lesta could find themselves rattling around in midtable/bottom half for a while to come unless they replace those players.

    Lol, good one <laugh>

    That's what makes it funny. Fosse is incapable of admitting when he's been done. So on it goes.

    He was trying to tell me that Arsenal's season was over in Jan when we went out of the FA cup to Forest, the very next round they dumped Lesta out. And here we are at the business end of the season with Arsenal battling for a Champions League place, with Lesta empty handed down in 14th

    Look at the contempt and disdain in Trebs posts when he talks about United qualifying for the Europa or Conference league like his team is above that when the league table clearly shows different
