Today's other games, Fred 13:26 - Sep 20 with 537 views | NthQldITFC | Just watched a bit of Leicester-v-Cov. Slow and tedious, Cov sat in a low block against a middling at best Leicester side, after completely dominating Nodge who sat in an even lower block against Cov, and roll around a lot. We're going to have to unlock a lot of massed defences this season, with quality shooting from outside the box, which is why Nunez looks such a good buy, isn't it? I'm also fancying that Greaves might have a decent long ranger in him, and he'll certainly get some opportunities with Davis, Philogene/Clarke and Cajuste pushing the opponents' right sides right back. No goals in any of the three first 'arves. |  |

Cut out the mistakes and we'll be OK, but if we go behind then we'll be making it tough on ourselves. We won't be winning many games 4-3 this season. [Post edited 20 Sep 13:32]

Indeed. It leaves me a bit concerned that we could have a successful season of mainly breaking down stubborn defensive opposition but never really getting the chance to play our open attacking game to develop that side of us. Hope we have a good deep run in the FA Cup against some PL teams. |  |

The 16 year old Monga for Leicester looking really handy. Also the commentator has a very Partridgesque delivery, redolent of a 1980's regional TV operator, in a sports jacket and shiny trousers. |  |
