Simpson Wes Huth (when fit) Fuchs
Maguire
Ilborra Ndidi Gray
Shinji
Vardy

If Huth not fit, Maguire drops back and Mahrez or Albrighton come in.
Okazaki obviously has to be replaced at around 60 minutes when his batteries run flat. If the batteries could be disconnected from 'just look at his face', he could probably manage another 10-15 minutes!
 
When we've played Vardy up front by himself in the past it's been ineffective, because there's been a big gap between him and the midfield. We've just punted it hopefully in his general direction, which is easy to defend against, and if he does get on the ball he can't hang on to it long enough for someone to join him in the attack.


A big part of our problem at the moment is the attitude of the players. When we played on the break a couple of years ago we'd have players all over the pitch busting a gut to get forward and help the attack, then when we lost possession, doing the same to help out the defence. That's not happening now. It's as though they've lost the freedom to play that way. Maybe it's to do with pressure, or a lack of confidence.
Maybe they've been told to play more cautiously. But we're at our most effective when we play aggressively and take the game to our opponents, rather than wait to see what happens.
There a gap in the midfield because we keep playing a 4 4 2 if we were to switch to a 4 5 1 vardy wouldn't be ineffective
