Just DO NOT leave space behind us for Vardy to run in to. This limits their gameplan quite dramatically.

I think we will prioritise defending once again but by willing to commit more midfielders forward this time when we do break.

I fancy Solly March to DESTROY Danny Simpson and if at any point we can break (if their full backs have pushed up) and can isolate AK or Solly against Wes Morgan then we are in with a chance.

Put me down for a 0-1 away win for Brighton.

Ha! Yeah, I got the sarcasm bit, but I didn't read it as all that snidey, despite the esteemed Simster's reaction, just a little bit of a heads up. I'm just a bit concerned that some people (not on this thread) may have confused 'easier game' with 'easy game' Bloke up my street is one - thinks it's a nailed on three points for us.


EDIT: BTW I think he's a new fan. He's in his forties I reckon, I've known him to talk to for about ten years and I never knew he was interested in football, but in the last few years he's taken to walking around in a Brighton top and talking about 'we' and 'us'.

11 men behind the ball with 2 or 3 chances in 90 mins and nothing upfront to score. 2-0 defeat

The bloke up your street is a fool, we're playing the League Champions from the season before last at their place! No idea how people can't see that this is going to be a seriously tough game.

I think we'll lose 2-0 but I agree with your sentiment. And I know the last sentence was said more in hope than expectation; if we lose I'm fully expecting some Doom and Gloom and 'we should be beating teams like Leicester' posts. Not a lot, just a few straws in the wind..

Damn, should have had a money on that.
