It doesn't matter. LVG has repeatedly said that his captains always start matches and play the majority of games.So you'd rate him over RVP and Falc or simply think he is in better form?

It does, as my question was, to who he would like to see play, not who LVG is likely to play..It doesn't matter. LVG has repeatedly said that his captains always start matches and play the majority of games.
Fantasy football bargain par extraordinaire.My memories of Leicester are basically Martin O'Neill, Neil Lennon and Muzzy Izzet. Oh and Heskey. So that's how long it's been since they've been up.
Just need to get Forest and Leeds back now and we're laughing (imagine getting to beat Leeds twice a year?).
not that i want to big up farest in any way whatsoever but didnt they end your unbeaten home run?My memories of Leicester are basically Martin O'Neill, Neil Lennon and Muzzy Izzet. Oh and Heskey. So that's how long it's been since they've been up.

True. Every 'smaller' club seemed to have more 'fancy' players than they do now. That's probably just nostalgia making me think that though.Fantasy football bargain par extraordinaire.
Yeah they did. I wasn't mocking Forest there by the way, the way I've structured that post implies that I'm including them with Leeds in the 'beat them twice a year' sentiment when I wasn't intending to. I'd just like to see clubs like Forest join Leicester in the premier league.not that i want to big up farest in any way whatsoever but didnt they end your unbeaten home run?
i wouldn't mind someone mocking forest :-) i would like them to be up too tbh, its teams like QPR i hate :-) (and was glad to see you stuff them, just wish Barton had played cos you would have scored a few more).True.

I think that's a likely outcome. The optimist in me thinks we could sneak a drawI like Leicester....a good ol fashioned English side....if there is still one.
I expect us to win by the odd goal though.
with our defence...would not blame you for thinking that.I think that's a likely outcome. The optimist in me thinks we could sneak a draw
That match was the pits! The 10? year old me was absolutely gutted that day. I used to actually get pretty angry when United lost back then (which thankfully for my family wasn't that often, apart from in europe!) Collymore, Brian Roy, Stuart Pearce.... That was a pretty decent forrest team to be fair. I thought when we got it back to 1-2 that we'd go on to win but it wasn't to be after all.not that i want to big up farest in any way whatsoever but didnt they end your unbeaten home run?
I agree. They did very well against a good Everton side. Also competed well with Stoke in the physical side.Nothing odd about it, they've been quite good.
My first ever game was United Vs Leicester in 1963.Hi,
A Fox here just come to see your thoughts :-)
I recall my 3 visits to Old Trafford.
a 5-1 defeat in the league cup
a 1-1 draw in the league where our full back (Mike Whitlow scored with his backside) and a 1-0 WIN for LCFC with a Tony Cottee Goal.
My memories of you visiting us are not as good although we did beat you 3-1 in the league cup when Heskey and Claridge linked up for a lovely goal. :-)
I think you will win but you will have to work harder than you did against QPR.
Hopefully our pace up front will cause you some problems and maybe we will be able sneak a win :-)
Your attack is already giving me sleepless nights though......
Leicester will be a tougher game than QPR, but I am sure we will get the 3 points if we play like last Sunday. Our pressing game was was quite impressive against QPR, it will be needed even more against a well drilled Leicester side.I voted for a 1-2 victory. I'm expecting a really tough game having seen them vs Chelsea, Everton and Arsenal. Oh and they beat Stoke away.
They play with a lot of energy and will actually press us so it'll be interesting to see how we fare. For too long when teams have pressed us we've been appalling. I hope with the new players and manager we'll cope better. I can't wait for the game.
I am excited but realistic, staying up is the target and if we can manage that then it will be an awesome season :-)My first ever game was United Vs Leicester in 1963.
Be very interesting to see how you guys play, looked the best of the promoted clubs so far. However, I remember the start Hull had a number of years ago and then they sort of bottled it.
No, Pearson took us to the Premiership. Our owners have helped greatly in other ways but we haven't thrown money at players to get here. We did take that route with Sven and we haven't managed to shake it off since apparently, but the owners have learnt from that and we weren't near the top spenders from last year in the Championship even.don't they have an asian suggar daddy who bought them back into the PL? They won't be here if they still were a serious and fair working football club.
If you have noticed that don't you think the staff might have noticed it as well? This one game a week malarky is good in this sense because we have an entire week to work on our weakness without interruption.Reading one of their forums and they reckon they can cause us some problems with their pace. We do look extremely open when the opposition run at us, Traore did it a couple of times and we just backed off him. Evans and the rest really need to pick up their games or we will struggle. Can't see them standing off us as they saw what we can do with space against QPR, and we've been shite when pressed so far this season. This one game a week malarky is shite
no. Will be back in October/November i think.Will Carrick be on the bench for this one?
I thought 3rd week of September was his initial diagnosis and he started training last week didn't he?no. Will be back in October/November i think.
started training is a bit too far-fetched, he just made his first steps without the protection boot. Running and recovery stuff, but he is still far away from the first team training. No chance that he will make it this month, LvG seems to really let the players play when they are match fit. I think that the 3rd week of September was the date til he could start training again.I thought 3rd week of September was his initial diagnosis and he started training last week didn't he?
5th October is his predicted return date on Physioroom.no. Will be back in October/November i think.
the sooner, the better.5th October is his predicted return date on Physioroom.
Well yeah I clearly meant from a spectator point of view. Obviously it should help us with our weaknesses but we still need to improve considerably at the back or we will really struggle against the better teams. Time will tell I guess.If you have noticed that don't you think the staff might have noticed it as well?
