A bit about you:
Name: Shaun Deacon
Current home town: Leicester
Birthplace: London
How long have you supported your team? Since 1970
Overview of your club:
Favourite thing about your home ground: Peter Osgood statue outside the ground
Favourite match played by your team & why: Champions League Final against Bayern- of course!
Favourite player of all time who played for your club: Peter Osgood
About our forthcoming match against you:
Your favourite current player in your squad and why
David Luiz- always a cult hero at the club but this time around he actually seems to be doing a bit of defending as well!
Player in your squad we should most fear and why? Diego Costa- he has got his mojo back!
Player in our squad you most fear and why? Ndidi- if he is really the new Kante!
Up and coming prospect in your squad? Chaboloah- firmly establishing his place in the first team squad and pushing for a starting position
How do you think you’ll do against us? I`m hoping for a 2-0 win to bounce back from losing to Spurs
General Questions:
Where do you think you'll finish this season? First- hopefully
Where would you like to strengthen in the transfer window and any idea of who with?
We need cover for the wing backs as it is such a demanding position physically. Hoping that Nathan Ake returning from Bournemouth can provide cover at left wing back
Which three teams do you think will be relegated? Sunderland, Hull and Swansea or Spurs
Who do you think will win the league? Chelsea
Any other comments? This season has been so much better than last (though I guess you wouldn`t agree with that!). Conte has been a breath of fresh air and we might even be getting planning permission to extend the Bridge.
