To be fair that's exactly the point I'm making. He's okay, does a job. But if he's your best player you're knackered.

This might sound odd, but a teams best player doesnt always means he is actually the best player. Like, as a footballer, I would say that several Everton players are better than McCarthy, but their importance to the team is maybe less.

Just a thought. Probably for a different thread.

*slaps own wrist*

At the risk of getting the taken the piss out of he's got a bit of everything. He's just one of them players that makes space for himself and others and everything goes through him.

I'm not suggesting he's gonna be one of the stars of the Premier league but there's no doubt he was our best player last season. His partnership with James is pivotal to us

Im gonna be honest mate, im a total football snob, I watched about 15minutes of 1 of your games last season cos I did Nugent FGS, that pyar bell Vardy scored instead so I switched off, basically I know nothing about any of your players, Nugent apart, that French lad youve got looked decent but ive heard hes missing, which is good.

From the lineups ive seen you play a 4-4-2? If so your certainly gonna have to think about maybe changing that? Whats this Ulloa fella like?

Our formation will depend on our injury status. We mostly played 4-4-2 last season but Pearson won't play that against the top 8 teams in the prem imo.

Not seen enough yet of Ulloa to make a fair assessment but there's gonna be a hell of a lot of pressure on him to score some goals. Leicester fans aren't the most forgiving or patient

The type of attitude some of the posters of our club are portraying are the ones that often end up with egg on the face.

There are no AWFUL sides in the premier league, and Leicester wont be an easy game. Some of you are treating Leicester like people treat us hen we say we can go for europe etc. So sack it off.

Leicester have a lot of team spirit which more than makes up for their lack of quality players, Mahrez, Knockaert who i have seen are pretty damn useful and Leicester actually play tactically solid, so it wont be a walk in the park at all.

David Nugent will be right up for this and any self made mistakes our defenders make (which will be very possible) he'll pick up on in an instant.

Don't think Leicester will go down and i think they'll have a decent season for them and end up finishing 14th-15th.

One of them comments were I wonder where are the likes? Or is as bad as I'm thinking that it's not of popular opinion, surely not.
 
Hopefully at full strength

Howard

Coleman Jagielka Distin Baines

Barry McCarthy

Mirallas Barkley Atsu

Lukaku

although I doubt lukaku and mirallas will start though

Whos your worst player, based on who you think will start? I mean I suspect Osman will start personally, even though Barkley should, so if you asked me I would say Osman. As a fan of a "lower league" club last season, did you watch a lot of the Prem? I mean if there was a Prem game on or Championship which game would you watch? Last season.

Due to injuries there's a possibility Konchesky might play and I really fear for us if he does. He was good in his first couple of seasons but he's past it imo.

I watch loads of football whatever league it is. As for choosing between the two it would depend if the championship game had any relevance to us, if not it'd be the prem game. The championship really isn't as bad as some people think. Our game against Derby last season was a joy to watch
