They've only got four games left and they're four points off the top six at the moment of the regular season.
Then it breaks into this championship playoff thing.
At the moment, it's looking unlikely that they're going to make that.
At the same time that they're struggling, you've seen City...
not necessarily miss his presence on the pitch but just his presence throughout the club at a time when obviously AMET reports missed most of the season so it's been a real kind of double whammy and it's almost like neither club have as yet benefited from the arrangement
Yeah, absolutely.
And we've got Adam Bate on the site today just really highlighting in his piece
promoting and championing the effect and impact that Aymeric Laporte can have.
He's obviously been at the club for some time but only yesterday was his 50th Premier League appearance which just seems remarkable and you can just see straight away the kind of calming influence and the benefits by having a left-footed centre-half can have on the whole team in terms of at the highest level in that kind of split second that makes a difference in terms of the transitions through the lines.
what the knock-on effect it will have on say a Rodrigo in the case of yesterday or a Fernandinho if he was playing as a defensive midfielder so as much as Kevin De Bruyne for me is still the best Premier League player in the Premier League there are key areas of that team if you take one of them out it makes a massive difference.
Quite potentially.
I mean, it was in the November of the 2017-18 season bringing it back to company in a game at Leicester where he could have been sent off in the first half.
He'd just been coming back from a calf injury and he got booked and he was very fortunate that it wasn't a red card because he was the last man.
And those kind of fast breaks, even though they've got a bit more control of the ball, is still a major part of the Leicester team.
They've had 29 fast breaks this season, the most of any team, and they've had six fast breaks leading to goals, which is only one fewer than Liverpool, which, you know, they're top of most metrics.
But, yeah, for Leicester still, even though...
They've kind of come off the wagon a little bit the last couple of weeks or so.
You feel like their best route to winning this game will be from exploiting City potentially on the counter-attack.
You imagine City are going to dominate the ball again.
And it's a question of whether Jamie Vardy can kind of finally get scoring again.
