    I like that line-up too but we all know it won't happen.

    Believe it or not I don't think this is the one to go pressing, Leicester love to counter attack and have got a lot of their goals from that, I would play both leon and Cork, who both work hard as we are going to have to Saturday, we cant afford to have any passengers, so Guidolin can you leave Gomis in Swansea.

    Routledge should play this game , and for me it's at the expence of Montero .
    The difference in Montero's sub appearence and his start is like night and day .
    On top of that , Montero should have scored in 2 games now and scored in neither.
    That built up play a few games ago that resulted in Siggy setting up Montero beautifully in front alone , should have been a headed goal .
    Everytime Leicester aren't being pressed they seem to struggle , their counter attack is their bread and butter

    Fab


    Naughton Fernandez Williams Taylor

    Cork Britton/Ki

    Barrow/Monty Routledge

    Siggy

    Paloschi

    Leicester full backs play very high up so could be ideal game for Monty to exploit the spaces behind them.

    I'd have Britton/Ki for Fer who, imo, after some hopeful games is now regressing al the way back to the Championship

    Leicesters surge for the title could be their undoing. I'm sure they are only looking up and wont give us a chance. If we play as we know we can against top teams, then we could upset them. Ref will be very important in this game.

    If Fer is not in an attack only position , he doesn't make my line up anytime .
    Fer , Siggy , Routledge , Barrow and Paloshi all in attack , everyone else is defend .
    Montero : super sub . We know what Taylor can do , let's see what Kingsley can do the rest of the way .
    I'd like to see Britton and Ki start this game , but know it won't happen .

    See your point re Kingsley roof and agree, I'd love to see him start too but its very doubtful. I'd love to see Ayew benched but I doubt that will happen either.

    Ya I know , I won't put Ayew in my " Guess the line up " post , knowing full well he will be there .
    Ayew was our top scorer and we weren't doing well , now his goals have dried up and were sorta cruising .
    Team play ........wins on the day

    Leicester are so close to the title with the best manager this season wont slip up against us. They will win in front of their own fans 4-0 with room to spare. I cant in visage a draw even.

    Ayew won't be a team player as long as he's got a hole in his arse.

    No chance in hell of us seeing that line up unfortunately. I'd swap Fer with Leon though.

    What would the rest of the league think of us if we were to be the party poopers on Sunday.
    Unlikely, but if we were to steal 3 points at Leicester and Spurs thrash WBA the gap is down to 2 points and with Spurs' remaining 3 games I would make them favourites

    Nah.... for me the Foxes have led the way all season and deserve the title but if they choke then they've only got themselves to blame I guess.

    Still hope we get something though.

    Yeah they will make absolutely certain against us i feel, They are a cracking team due to their managers ideology of how the game should be played. They will wear our disheveled lot down and will force set pieces on us knowing we are useless at them. It would be great to win but as an old sentimental i really want the fox's to win the premiership to show other teams that if you have the right manager and players you can beat the so called big 4 who think they have the title sewn up between them before the season starts.

    COYS , Spurs for me , a team who play football , Leicester have played to their strengths but for watching attractive football then Spurs all day + they've never won it either

    I would like to see Leicester do it because I don't feel they'd have another chance of winning it ever again. But I'm happy to see anyone outside of the regular big 4 to do it (Chelsea, Arsenal, Man City and Utd)
