    I think similarly to us in 2013/14 Leicester are benefitting from the one game a week. It will be interesting to see how they get on once European football breaks and it's two games a week domestically over the busy Christmas period, they have a good 1st eleven but little depth beyond that. Recalling our 13/14 season, we suffered back-to-back losses over the Christmas period which ultimately proved quite costly.

    The timing of the Leicester game is fortunate for us, instead of coming off the back of a tough European game; it comes after Leicester's busiest period of two games, per week since the start of Dec, including a tough away game at City. Whilst we are playing in the less pressured environment of the World Club cup, were we can rest players if required.
    I think we'll be K-nackered by then unless we do an awful lot of rotating from now until Xmas. It might require a different system so get the best out of our fringe players as our front three don't swap out for other players awfully well

      OK, you can throw in a few draws here and there for each team. But that just isn't happening.


      Think they need to beat City and us to be genuine title challengers in my view. Or at least 4 points from those games.

              I think Aguero will be a big loss for them. Jesus is good but if things are tight, then Aguero can often be the difference.

                I wonder what Jesus wished for on his birthday?

                        I like that Man U are twice as close to the bottom than they are to the top

                            Guess big gap doesn’t need spelling out when it’s visualised like that though
