Anyone remember when people were worried Leicester would embarrass England in Europe? https://www.foxestalk.co.uk/forums/uploads/emoticons/default_whistle.gif


:LOL: B)

btw, at this point would you rather just face an "unbeatable" top club like Madrid, Barça, Bayern, etc just so you can enjoy watching Leicester take on european giants, or a less prestigious club that will still most likely beat you but still give you a better chance of advancing?

Honestly, I want Atletico madrid. I wasn't really into football when we played them before, but my eldest brother was at the home match, said he has never seen us so blatantly robbed before or since. So would be nice to have the chance to pay them back.

And while I personally rate them highly, I do believe in their current form we could definitely give them a competitive game and have a fair chance of making the semis. Plus it would be a great day out for the fans in Madrid.

But if we did get Barca/real/bayern I wouldn't complain. Just don't really want any of the others. Even saying that, we're in the last 8, I don't think I could be upset with anyone we got. :lol:

payback and history aside, imo atletico really wouldnt be so bad for you guys

they are comfortable versus the likes of bayern, when they can give us the ball and see what happens
however i can see them struggle big time breaking a deep defense themselves

Atlético is a tough nut to crack and their main objective is winning the CL, but I do think Leicester could give them a hard time. If you guys lock yourselves up properly and Kasper carries on his good form then they will have a lot of trouble scoring.

Same team apart from captain wes is out due to a back injury. Shame since it ends his amazing run in the team.

Hopefully we can take our decent home run on the road and chalk up our first away win.

Come on you Foxes!
