Hopefully Tiote breaks his leg in the first minute! or Mitrovic misses his pre-match meal and fanices an algerian delicasy!

Im not overly worried though, you litterally are a two man team at the moment and even though they are in form, I reckon both Vardy and Mahrez can be stopped.

<laugh> ... bit harsh to wish that on Tiote - is he really THAT bad?

... and if you think we are a two man team then you haven't been watching us properly ... Albrighton must be running Mahrez close for assists and Drinkwater and Kante have been absolutely superb all season (the engine room) ... Schlupp is arguably the quickest player in the league and will be bombing down the left flank all afternoon long ... hope your lads are fit ... because ours just increase the tempo throughout ...

PS If Mitrovic comes the big man with Huth ... there is only one winner ... the BFG :emoticon-0165-muscl...

Sorry forgotten about that world beater's you have in Albrighton, lol oh and Jeffery Schlupp, Danny Simpson, Danny Drinkwater, Nathan Dyer, Ritchie De Laet & Robert Huth.
In all honesty, you've had a great start to the season and some of your players have upped their games, but don’t embarrass yourselves by thinking you’re the next big thing. All teams have this at some stage, Ipswich got a Europa league place in their first season, Stoke started out really well in their first season, West Ham, Southampton, Hull, Birmingham, Leeds have all had good season's. Even us. I think you should be happy if you get 10th I know you all would have taken that at the start of the season.
All I'm saying is that whilst it’s rather refreshing that your doing so well and its nice for some of your fans that arent D!ckheads like you, don’t count on it lasting. You have Thai owners and ranieri in charge, something's going to hit the fan at some point. Don’t get too attached to your "Superstars" either, the second a little bit of cash is thrown at you, your take it like a Thai lady boy!

Good Luck Saturday and enjoy the game!

Lol, Mitro would kill Huth with one hand behind his back. I dont think you understand his hulk like strength!

Who said they were 'world beaters' ? ...

... de Laet unlikely to play

Arsenal and Man United reportedly both watching Schlupp ... so he must be doing something right ... but similar as with Vardy and Mahrez ... we don't NEED to sell - the owners have been great, wiped the club debt, returned the stadium to club ownership and have backed the manager(s) in the transfer market ... now appointed a manager with considerable success at stellar clubs across Europe ... team playing flowing attractive football, full houses every week ... what more could we ask?

Of course we'll be happy if we get 10th ... why wouldn't we be? .. we certainly don't suffer from divine right syndrome like some clubs ...

I'll have to bow to your better knowledge of Thai Lady Boys and how they 'take it' ... each to their own ... <laugh> ... and as to Ranieri and Thai owners being a recipe for disaster ... again I'll bow to your astute knowledge <laugh> ... of course I'd sleep a lot easier with Tufty as manager and Mike Ashley owning us <laugh> ...

Enjoy the game on Saturday ... there are some decent posters on here ... you should try spending some time with them .. <ok>

Have to say I am impressed with how well Leicester have played this season and would confess to not expecting Vardy to be this much of a goaslscorer but he's obviously doing something right.

Would expect them to tail off a bit as the season continues but I'm guessing most Foxes fans think that as well. Would like them to be fighting for a Europa spot instead of the "usual" clubs a la Spurs, Liiverpool and the like.

But hoping that Leicester's form has a hiccough on Saturday.

I never said they were world beaters, and have never made a claim anything like us being "the next big thing"

Most of us remain grounded, and not getting too carried away... We would all be ecstatic with a top-half finish.

I'm just saying that it's more than just Mahrez and Vardy who are behind our early season success.

Cheers buddy a fine post ... and agree with everything you have said (apart from the hiccough on Saturday obviously <laugh>) ... Vards has been a revelation this season ... many of us (including me) were not expecting him to even be a first choice striker at the start of the season ... but he has improved incredibly, game by game (as indeed has Mahrez) - lot of credit to Ranieri who has backd both and is getting the best from them ...

Most Leicester fans (me included) merely want to get to the 40 point mark and then we can perhaps relax ... really need to be in this division next season ... and that's all really ... anything more than that would be a huge bonus ...

Really excited about Leicester, they've got a canny little squad of players people are down on for no reason. Poor Danny Simpson, solid defensively, average going forward, better than the suicidal ****e we've seen at times from other recent right backs. Jamie Vardy, hard working championship level... Maybe not!

Also, Schlupp is so underrated. Honest if he played for Chelsea or Man Utd he'd be 18 million.

They aren't a two man team. They're old fashioned hard work, Pacey and a bit of class sprinkled in. I reckon they could finish 5th without too many injuries.

I think we can draw, but it'll be a score draw. I hate Vardy for FF, but get him in as captain. Colo might be a walking red.

Looking forward to this game as well. Leicester seem to have discovered how to play with no fear so expect it to be an open game. Think we play better going forward against teams like that as well. Hope McLaren picks an attacking midfield - cant bear to watch another Bournemouth style performance.,

I used to like Leicester
 
I haven't watched a second of Leicester this season or last so I know nothing about any of their players (even their names), although I have heard of this Vardy lad but only recently. Based on that in depth knowledge and the likelihood that Leicester have most likely been punching way above their weight so far this season, and that we are at home, I can confidently predict a 3-1 home win.
