I think it looks like 352

Schmeichel
Maguire Morgan Dragovic
Albrighton Ndidi King Chilwell
Mahrez Okazaki
Vardy
 
looks like a 3-5-2 type thing with chilwell and albrighton dropping back when out of possession no doubt. Pleasantly surprised. Iborra was ****ing shit against Man U so not bothered in the slightest about that - maybe that's why hes been dropped or simply rested due to fatigue.
 
Maguire seems most likely at right back unless we're changing formation of course.
That would be madness, surely. I predict Dragovic to have an uncomfortable game at right back.
 
Puel must not have been impressed with the shitefest Iborra served up against Man Yoo either then.

He perhaps realised that he is shagged and needs a rest.

Madness why? He's our most mobile central defender and would be perfectly capable there. Dragovic hasn't played there in his life (I recall RL asking an Austrian journalist about it when he joined).

Changing formation would be a good thing but I'm not sure it will happen. If you change formation, surely you have to do some work on it in training. There has been precious little chance for any such work since Saturday.

To ensure that ten of the eleven are playing entirely familiar roles, I'd go with:

Schmeichel
Maguire Dragovic Morgan Chilwell
Ndidi King
Albrighton Okazaki Mahrez
Vardy
 
Looks like 3 at the back with wing backs to me which is the only real solution to our RB problem.
