The last time we played them competitively was the only time we ever played well under Saunders (and then only for a half, and we still lost, and he changed everything for the next game regardless. The cunt)

the only time we ever played well under Saunders

We played well for 10 mins against Barnsley...so not all bad

 

[Premier Quality]

Their fans really fancy themselves for this, which surprises me given they’ve only one about one in the last eight PL games...

 

[arklowolf]

There's £11 at 10s on Betfair.

Eh?

 

[arklowolf]

11/10 to beat us. 13/2 to finish the season in the top six. (Betfair has us at 10/1 to finish in the top six). Neves 16/1 to be PFA young player of the year.

 

[Penk Wolf]

Eh?

Betfair Exchange.

Playing well away at Old Trafford on the first game of the season will do that to you.

Leicester are no mugs- it's not going to be an easy game by any stretch.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Traore available, Dendoncker is not.

 

[Kenny]

Dendoncker is not.

VanDammeitus?

 

[Johnny75]

Traore available, Dendoncker is not.

Any reason Dendoncker isn't available?

 

[Kenny]

Any reason Dendoncker isn't available?

Timmy II has gone into detail here...

‏Pre-Leicester press conference
Nuno says Adama Traore is available tomorrow
Leander Dondencker not yet ready

I do love a Timmy typo as well

 

[Tony Towner]

Any reason Dendoncker isn't available?

Not yet ready according to Nuno. Presumably due to when he came back from the World Cup

 

[Carrotdude]

Hopefully just a fitness/readiness thing with Dendoncker, was at the World Cup wasn’t he?

 

[Kenny]

Thats what it will be. Late returning to training at Anderlecht and then days off to sort his shizzle out moving/getting used to the room service at the Mount

 

[White Wolf]

2012/13: W 2-1 (H), L 1-2 (A)
2007/8: D 1-1 (H), D 0-0 (A)
2006/7: L 1-2 (H), W 4-1 (A)
2005/6: D 0-0 (H), L 0-1 (A)
2004/5: D 1-1 (H), D 1-1 (A)
2003/4: W 4-3 (H), D 0-0 (A)
2002/3: D 1-1 (H), L 0-1 (A)
1995/6: L 2-3 (H), L 0-1 (A)

Our record against them is terrible, might as well hand the 3 points over now...

 

[BGreenWolf]

Same team as last week with Traore on the bench, then.

 

[Oldgoldwulf]

I wouldn't. I would play Vinagre and swap the wing backs to get rid of the real weak link in Doherty.

This... 100% this.

Me too - I would like to see Vinnie on the left and Johnny on the right. It might not work, but I'd like to see Nuno give it a go.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

The guy who lives in the apartment below mine is a Leicester fan so looking forward to this today.

Predicting a 1-1 draw

 

[Tredman]

Same team, Traore replaces bright on the bench.

Looking forward to this.
