Leicester and Man U 10:21 - Jun 22 with 4560 views | gobbles | How, after years and years of absolutely garbage pre-seasons, have we ended up with two of the top 5 teams in the country coming to Loftus Road (KPFS) this summer? Might be two absolute hammerings, might set a decent standard to give us a good start, might mean a couple of loans coming, might mean a couple of talents leaving. | ![](/images/avatars/1369.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

That and the Euros meaning they are likely to start pre season later due to so many players likely to be busy until July 11th, well the french ones anyway | ![](/images/avatars/1922.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Leicester and Man U on 11:34 - Jun 22 with 4208 views | simmo | Not so far to travel for the United fans that want to attend, just a quick tube journey.... Mostly though, apart from the lack of Asia/Dubai based pre-season shite, I reckon it's a lot to do with our style of play as a ball-playing team with young, technical players. We don't really play like a typical Championship team. This level of 'recognition' is also good within football circles. It raises our status with the PL and we're seen to be a club doing the right things, especially for younger players and development, which could mean more trust with prospects/loans and that any players we bring through that go to market, have the right attributes. | ![](/images/avatars/1322.gif) |

Agree with this. Really think Warburton is doing excellent things at our football club. I do hope that if we have a bad spell this season similar to end of 2020, that we all keep the faith and realise the bigger picture and the job he is doing… | ![](/images/avatars/1978.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Really sorry to see him go . In fairness quite why the Premier league thought it a good idea to have a ref from Bolton take MANCHESTER UNITED at home to QPR is beyond me . | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

It's probably just as well as it does level the laying field a bit. If we could get a result against either team, it would be good for our confidence, irrespective of who plays for the opposition, and would go down extremely well with us fans. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Suspect this is right - and I wouldn't be surprised if we pick up loans from both clubs before the window closes. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
