I think they'll be a lot more open without Kante; their confidence will be knocked after the Hull result and it looks like some of the mega contracts being handed out has started to cause some discontent. Danny Drinkwater has turned down an 80k pw contract!!

We actually controlled the ball and the game well for half an hour against the Victims and I think we can do the same at the weekend.

Just the small matter of our shit defence to dent my confidence.

I want us to win but I'm dreading the 'showed mental stwenth ....' speech that TOF roles out.

Probably be Kos and Chambers/Monreal at CB so an improvement, but will go for Leicester win and Vardy scores

Keep the pressure on Wenger its the only way things will change

If ever a mis-firing Vardy needed a game to get him back on track, it's this one. Against 2 inexperienced (at PL level) CH's, he is quids on to score. :|

No idea. Has Wenger given him enough time to rest? I mean this weekend is only 6 weeks after the Euro's final. :roll:

It still sticks in my throat that Kos didn't play at the weekend. Putting aside wengers role in giving them time off, surely any player with a brain and ambition to win the league, would realise we have a tough game, a shit load of injuries and would make themselves available? It was pretty obvious we were going to struggle and every point is vital...even at this stage. If that was me I'd be knocking on the door telling him I wanted to play. Or am...i being naive?

As for Leicester...I think they're going to have a poor season and it's the sort of game we get a result in to take the pressure of Wenger...so we'll probably draw or scrape a win. Vardy nailed on for a goal though.

Fucking hell I'm bored of this season already :cussing:

Maybe Kos did those things? I know every time the camera went on him on Sunday he looked pissed off - I thought that was because of what he was watching on the pitch, but maybe it was because he was watching and not playing?
