All New Match Thread 16:16 - Jan 20 with 18884 views | PinnerPaul | Assuming we're not counting the "Fulham on Saturday" thread as a genuine match thread, thought I would start the real thing, subject to Clive bombing it of course! Thought we were good value at 5/2, we touched 3/1 earlier in the day, that was snapped up, but you can still get 14/5. 2-0 us I'm going for! [Post edited 20 Jan 2017 16:17]

All New Match Thread on 13:23 - Jan 21 with 2586 views | kropotkin41 | Here's the thing: if Ollie can keep us playing like this, we're a hard team to beat. That'd be survival sorted I'd say. It's been a long time since we've had an identifiable style of play - other than panicked and demoralised - but one is definitely emerging with this team. Long may it continue. | ![](/images/avatars/1361.gif) |

All New Match Thread on 13:28 - Jan 21 with 2509 views | kropotkin41 | 22% possession. I wonder if Leicester ever had a higher possession figure than an opponent last season. Taking it as low as 22% might be a bit extreme, mind you. I presume the lower your possession figure the better you have to be at the game you're playing. | ![](/images/avatars/1361.gif) |

All New Match Thread on 13:20 - Jan 21 by BrianMcCarthy | Fortunate to be 1-0 up, but we're working hard so fortune has favoured us. No better example than the goal. We look nervous in our clearances but we also look extremely well-organised at the back. Fulham seem to have done their homework on hall and look to be placing a man on him every time they get close past half-way to force him to man-mark and preventing him from being free to anticipate and intercept. Manning and Luongo are being overrun and I would like to see Luongo pushing up on Cairney to stop him dictating. He's the man they look for. Mackie and Sylla are playing very poorly. Smithies is the man. |
I recon we have lost him after that penalty save.. I was watching him in the tunnel before KO , remembering Green's gormless f'cking grin thinking 'This is nice ' | ![](/images/avatars/7010.gif) |

Hopefully they'll be cutting loose now and ramping their possession up to 26 or 27%. | ![](/images/avatars/11425.gif) |

Not a bad thing stock goes up we sell high price with sell on and England add on we could make a fair few quid. Plus we have Ingram who's no mug.
