    Herb, that was a joke, right? Noble at RB ;nonono
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    Well we appear not to have a RB and Nobes isn't playing well but cant be dropped so by playing him at RB we lose nothing and gain Kouyate in midfield. ;biggrin
  • NEoldironNEoldiron
    Just what we need, the slowest RB in the EPL against some of the fastest players (Vardy, Albrighton, Mahrez) ;nonono
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    But he wouldn't get stranded upfield. ;whistle

    There have been far worse players than Noble recently but lets keep blaming him...
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    He hasn't played well for a period of time now. He is becoming a 'Nolan' figure. No doubting his heart but he isn't up to it.

    Unfortunately the other positions we are lacking in don't have ready made replacements unlike Noble who's taking Kouyate natural position

    a 'Nolan' figure ;nonono

    IH I remember Nolan and Nobes, he ain't no Nolan. ;whome

    Kouyate needs to play in his best position, which for me is in central midfield with the opportunity to push forward. At the moment that probably means next to Obiang rather than Noble.

    Try not to concede.

    Vardy staking his claim for the most despicable footballer of the year.

    I see Lukaku is making a late bid ...
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    I hope they get Barcelona or Bayern or Real Madrid in the quarters. They're an obnoxious side.
    Sadly they'll probably beat us on Saturday.

    sooooooooooooo wanted that pen to go in and force another 30 mins ;angry
  • TwistandShoutTwistandShout
    To give no effort at all for the manager who won you the league and then play like that... Makes me sick
  • stevesteve
    never mind Twist we will just have to show them what we think on saturday ;biggrin

    Oddly out the teams left in the CL their best hope is probably getting Man City. If they did I would fancy them to knock them out

    Just seen that Leicester haven't won away from home all season.

    I think we know how this ends.
  • HammerexHammerex
    Think they may break that statistic very soon. ;weep

    Well we could've done without Tuesday's result.

    3-1 Leicester I'm going.

    The massive pitch has got Leicester written all over it now that the players are running the club.

    Nailed on loss

    If we managed to escape with a 0-0 it would be a superb result

    Im hoping the champions league game has taken a lot out of them. We need to start the game well and an early goal to calm things down. Chasing the game against this lot plays to their strengths on the counter . We need a good performance after last week and a positive result
  • alderzalderz
    If you don't push up your defence against Leicester you do alright. Teams that attack them and try to dominate the ball just play into their hands. This is a match that is all about getting your tactics right.

    You have to laugh:

    But England striker Vardy refuted Nasri's allegation, saying: "I'm not a cheat and I never have been. That's all I've got to say on the matter."

    A Leicester spokesman added: "The club refutes entirely any allegation that questions the professional integrity of Jamie or any of its players."

    Well that's that then. ;biggrin

    He is a terrible cheat.

    He'll win a pen on Saturday when Fonte breaths near him.

    Cheats and thugs

    I want them to draw Bayern who will surgically dismantle them with clinical precision
  • NEoldironNEoldiron
    Baracks, so who'll pick up all the body parts?
    I think that might be outside the stewards/cleaners remit. ;biggrin
  • TwistandShoutTwistandShout
    I think we need to play a bit 'nasty'.
    The recent games I've watched us we show far too much respect to the opposition. Standing off them, letting them play. Need to get back to last season when teams feared playing us.
  • grey_til_I_dyegrey_til_I_dye
    Think Nasri's got a good point.

    If he'd done that to Vardy, sections of the press would have been having conniptions.

    Just checking is this a WHUFC forum?

    Blimey the negativity out there, Leicester? Pffft no problem they won't be walking out of the world class iconic London stadium with three points mark my words

    Slav will have the boys up for this, no square pegs in round holes and were due one against this lot having been done at home and schmeichel not being sent off then the dodgy penalty away....

    Come On You IRONS!!!

    3-1
