Thoughts on today’s game at Leicester?

we need to just put our chances away. We are creating so many these days but the conversion rate is brilliant. Didn't we have 20 chances against Burnley?

Enjoy the away trip.

I expect it to be a tough game. Leicester will try to sit deep and catch us on the break, which could see the two sides balance each other out. However I expect us to control and win the game.

1-0 for me.

Tough tough game on paper. Wouldn't be surprised if it was a draw but will go 2-1 United. A lot depends on Leicester too, as much as ourselves. As they have it in their locker to be exceptional but can also be absolutely terrible at times. Not many teams seem to have off days v United though, so any result will likely be hard earned

Clean sheet?! You’re more optimistic than me
Hopefully Bailly plays alongside Lindelof, think he’s the one who could nullify Vardy the best if he’s on his game

That horrible little punk Vardy will score today, so we need 2 early goals and at least another in the 2nd half. We do that and we earn 3 points. Ruthless 'til May!

Leicester play their best when they soak up the pressure and then counter. They've struggled against teams they're expected to beat due to those sides sitting back.

Can’t call this one really. Think we have enough to put them away, but at the same time Leicester are very unpredictable in terms of what level of performance they will give. Id probably go for a score draw.

On a side note I think their right back Ricardo is great.

Baily should play, deals well wit Vardy

Could be any result. I think Ole’s tactics work better away from home than at home so we should very much be favourites today. Leicester, as people have said are one of those feast or famine sides so hopefully we turn up and play as well as we can. Pogba imo will have to be on his game today and boss it for us to win

I don’t think Ole rates Bailly that much. He seems to be a fan of Lindelof and Jones.

Two counter attacking teams. Think it's either a win or loss, no draws. If we play our front 3, we should score. But our defence can't resist counter attacks.

2-3 goals IMO. Hopefully shaded our way.

Ole needs to pick his strongest side and go for it after the Burnley result.

3-1 United

posted on 3/2/19

With our current approach, these away games May suit us.

Feeling confident although don’t think we’ll get top four and currently just enjoying watching the team again.

Vidic would have owned Vardy, miss him!

I would not say he does not rate him, Baily got himself stupidly red carded after having a really good game. Phil Jones always looks like an accident waiting to happen. Lindelof has improved, but for me, the guy is still nowhere near top drawer. If we get that fellaq from Napoli, Baily and Lindelof can fight for the other spot.

I would like to think Ole will revert back to his favoured and strongest side of Rashford through the middle with Lingard and fitness providing Martial either side.

I would like to see Smalling back playing soon. Perhaps today isn't the day to bring him back but he needs games with the run of fixtures we have coming up.

We don't have to play on the counter in particularly, just play good attacking football.

Won’t be an easy game but I’m confident as long as Ole gets the selection right

posted on 3/2/19

I think people made more of the team Ole put out against Burnley than they should've done.

He made one change that wasn't forced upon him and that was Pereira.

Martial was injured and Lingard had been suffering from an injury in the days prior to the game so Ole probably didn't want to use him for more than 20-30 minutes or unless he absolutely had to.

Somebody had the audacity to say he put out a second string side ffs.
