Subscriber Dan+ 1,915 Posted December 19, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted December 19, 2019 Huge test, one of the biggest. I think we'll get beat to be honest but this is a good Leicester side. Should be really good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan 18,367 Posted December 19, 2019 Author Administrator Share Posted December 19, 2019 Yeah I think our long unbeaten run comes to an end here. They may be relatively under-performing by their own standards but they're still a ridiculously good team. They have their weaknesses in defence which I'd hope we attack and not sit back, but their front-line, especially De Bruyne in seriously hot form, does concern me. Jesus is in quality form too. Think both score but Man City come out on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Blue 1,898 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 To catch Liverpool now we need to win every game from here and that might not be enough ..Leicester have another shot at the title again this season too, both teams can not afford to lose ..we rested alot of players last night so hopefully we will be more fresh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but I don't want City's players feeling like the gap is possible to be bridged. I want them to feel like it's insurmountable and for it to affect their confidence each week, hopefully leading to more draws and losses along the way. Both sides dropping points here is ideal.

LFCMadLad 2,080 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Even a Leicester win could turn out good in certain scenarios. If Leicester beat City then that's City basically out of it. If we then go to Leicester and win in a few weeks time then it's all but done and dusted. So much can happen, theres 21 games left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Mel81x+ 3,612 Posted December 20, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted December 20, 2019 I'd obviously love a draw here but this City side aren't as dominating at home compared to their last campaign. They drew with spurs, lost to Wolves, lost to United and beat Chelsea by a goal. I think this Leicester squad has the ability to upset them at home and they will. Plus, Vardy is in very good form and he has an impressive record against stop opposition scoring 5 against City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 1,437 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 What do others think will actually happen result wise in this one? City fairly strong favorites to take 3 points or is Mel right that an upset is on the cards...? One of the most interesting games of the season so far.

True Blue 971 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Liverpool would be pleased with a draw, even tough this Leicester side is superb i'd go for a 2-1 win City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ 1,915 Posted December 20, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted December 20, 2019 Do think the Arteta thing, while it may have no effect - it can't exactly have a good one on them either. Anyway this one's a tricky game for City. Fingers crossed City pull off that away win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
