XG is Bullshit...unless we are top of the league for it in which case it's a very accurate metric...

Liverpool agree with you about XG. They have largely discounted it for a while now.

A much easier win than one might expect. 0-2 to us. Defence will have their act together. One change Asante in for Sako. It works for us.

That was a great away day…. Carsley bullet header. Hartson was on fire. Away end had a foot of stagnant water - was soaked

Wasn't at that one but did go to the 3-0 cup win (Telfer's ping would have taken a couple of them out if the net wasn't in the way), and 2-0 in the league earlier in the 90s (Dion brace). Absolute smegwarren of a ground. You mention the stagnant water, there were bare lightbulbs hanging from the roof! Lost sight of the ball at every keeper kick. Even Luton would mock that away end.

Godspeed to the SBA going into enemy territory on Sat. Top tip, keep your hands in your pockets on the way to the ground. 3-1 to the Sky Blues.

Leicester are a good side, and so are we. Really haven't got a clue what the score will be, but it will be a good game. Going for 0-0.

3-1 win, Haji and Rudoni early goals, Leicester get one back in the second half and BTA to hit on the break in the dying minutes.

Thomas attempted more passes than any of our other defenders on Saturday and had a higher pass completion.

Don’t fancy us to concede less than 2. We’ll probably create enough chances to score 3 but can we convert them. I’d be having a serious look at both full backs for this one.

See some over confidence setting in on here.

Anything more than nil points will be a decent result.

No need to panic, most think Wilson is better than Rushworth anyway.

Would say that’s some of that is in part to the passing across the back, back and forth from MVE to Thomas and Rushworth

All I got told was that he went in too quick on his first time, broke his knob in half. He’ll be out till Christmas.

Must admit I am absolutely licking my lips at the thought of some of our attacking players playing against Vestegaard and Faes, personally think they are both utter pony whenever I have watched them - Just gotta watch out for Choudhury if he plays cause he is a dirty bastard

If we shore up our defence a bit I fancy us to win this 2 or 3-1

I think Milan will keep Mavididi quiet its just whether Da Silva can do the same with Fatawu on the other side. They are Leicesters main Threat. Not arsed about Ayew (Watch him score a hattrick now)

To be fair, we're undefeated, that xG rubbish pretty much says we're the best team in the division (if I've read that post correctly) and Leicester aren't tearing up the division like some thought they might.

I think the confidence is justified.

Ayew is a clever forward, though not a target man.

Replace confidence with optimism, and I think you're spot on.

Just wanna see us attack the same way

We scored 5 Vs derby and should have had 5 Vs Oxford. If we play same way Vs Leicester I will be very impressed

I definitely think a team called City will win.

If you think that's sitting on the fence a bit, I will clarify further. It will be a team whose main kit is a blue colour

And to clarify further still, it will be the team that is at one of the M69 motorway.

3-2 to us.


Or them.

Do they educate kids in Leicester or are they just a bit stupid? They think the HMV empire is showing the Leicester game as a one off.
