If Faes is a regular in Leicester's defence, they're in for a tough season. 

[dylanisabaddog 5,156]

The problem Leicester have in this division is having recently won the Premier League and FA Cup. They may as well have targets on their shirts. 

Ipswich are obviously the same 😂

Surprised how weak Leicester look. They still have plenty of experienced Prem players but they seem to be finding it difficult.

Experienced being the word

They might be like us last season have this, apparently “great team on paper” but FIFA stats don’t win you games in the chanpionship. It’s a hungry league for hungry players, you’ve got to really want it.

Interestingly Leicester have not gone and stuck two stars on their badge for that. The binners must be very confused

We've freed up some wages now Tzolis has gone and should have money coming in for Max. Use it for Hamer. Three absolutely superb passes in this match. What a player 

Game should be over, Coventry might rue all those chances missed. Leicester have been woeful second half mind. 

Hamer still not signed a new contract offered, so yes get him and we’d get promotion. 
 

[Gordon Bennett 796]

Good goal.

[cambridgeshire canary 6,928]

And the foxes youth academy player scores twice for them to seemingly grab them a win, good story

I agree but I doubt Kenny would

[dylanisabaddog 5,156]

9 minutes! 

[Midlands Yellow 4,176]

Cracking second half, one more goal perhaps. 

[The Real Buh 3,499]

Despite having a name that sounds like somewhere to get a nice cream tea that Dewesbury-Hall is pretty decent it’s got to be said.

Always seemed to be somewhat of a more posh or upper middle class thing having two family names with the Hyphen and all but I have noticed it seems to have become a lot more common in recent years. Is it becoming a trend or something?

I always think Ward-Prowse sounds like a solicitors firm and Loftus-Cheek sounds like a medical condition

[GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,843]

Not overly impressed with Leicester there as 'title favourites',  Southampton looked better but both could lose a few players yet...

[Capt. Pants 4,356]

Leicester up and running. A good win from a difficult first game.

All eyes on Leeds now.

Don't think it's necessary to be impressed in the first game of a 46 match season. Can remember Burnley looking pretty ordinary a year ago. 

[RobJames 921]

Looks like some over zealous person has removed the link to the Leics v Cov game

[BroadstairsR 2,257]

I watched the second half. Excellent game. Coventry deserved more.

Martin and Robins two ex-Canaries in management that seem to be doing excellent jobs. He who runs the club opted for Dean Smith who consequently seems to have pitched us among the also-rans.

[RobJames 921]

I'm not sure how you can rate Martin as doing an excellent job. Didn't do much at either previous club before jumping ship to S'oton. He has a long way to go to prove himself

[Nexus_Canary 1,063]

Anyone spotted Mark Rivers near Leeds?

 

[dylanisabaddog 5,156]

Is NG the player with the shortest surname ever? 

When it comes to first names and surnames combined I can't think of anyone that beats Ian Ure of Arsenal

It's due to people having sex outside of marriage. Shocking. 

It's all Tony Blair's fault. The Conservatives would never have allowed it

See that the blessed Daniel is giving a debut to a 17-year-old today. Always loved his faith in the yoof.

[ricardo 7,460]

Ha ha ha.

Leeds are falling apart again.

[Capt. Pants 4,356]

Farke out.

[ricardo 7,460]

No easy games.

[cambridgeshire canary 6,928]

I'm sure Leeds (should..) pull it back and end up winning just like Leicester did but this is pretty funny

Last one taken down - just put soccer streams into the search engine, loads will come up

[Surfer 1,547]

This Leeds performance has a very Farke Season 1 vibe.... and the defence a very Season 2, 3, 4, 5
