So, we now have the chance to exact revenge on the Foxes following our humiliating defeat at their ground. However, we surely need a lot more than revenge on the agenda, because whether or not retribution is at stake, nothing less than three points is acceptable! Especially against a relegation-threatened side at home, we absolutely must secure the win as we fight for a Champions League place!

Well we could probably do without the comma splices and the pleonasm too, but if that's how you want to portray your writing style then more power to you.

Yeah, we could be third at least for a day.

We may be at home to a lowly side, but the way things are going I'm still not confident we are even able to win comfortably. Could well just be a scrappy, hard-fought 2-1 victory, considering we weren't able to defeat Cambridge United with the likes of Di Maria and Falcao in the starting line-up.
I guess during times like this, three points is the priority, as it's absolutely crucial we secure a Champions League spot this season. It's disappointing we aren't able to play fluid, lucid football at this stage but that is partly due to the fact that Van Gaal is still adjusting to English football. Hope to god we don't see Di Maria start up front again for this. Might be time to give Falcao a rest by putting him on the bench or even dropping him completely.

I feel after the 0-0 draw against Cambridge United, LVG would have made some strong words. I get a feeling that we will play well against Leicester and we all know what happened when we played against them last time, so expect a revenge. 3-0 or 4-0 surely.

I'm with Kaushik here - Premier league is a completely different ball game so I'm expecting a strong performance

He barely played 3 full matches so far and we need him firing on all cylinders. When he's going to play and earn his place in the team if not in the coming weeks, especially if we plan to keep him permanently? He needs to play, settle and produce. |

I see no difference between our League and Cup games, every last one of them are lookalike and not in the positive manner. I hope you two are right but I'm not getting my hopes up to see some miracle in performances over night. Better expect the same boring crap and be surprised nicely than the other way round.  |

I also think they will come out with fire in their bellies and win this one hands down 4:0
The team and the home crowd will do us proud - believe ............
PS. Please start Herrera

Revenge?
Something along the lines of De Gea, Rafa/Valencia, Jones, Rojo, Shaw, Blind, Herrera, Di Maria, Rooney, Wilson, Falcao.
If you want it more beefy put Carrick/Fellaini in and take out el pussycat.
What we will get is another matter..

In this context, yes. You surely haven't forgotten about the time we visited the King Power Stadium earlier this season, have you? |
