I hope CR does not select another experimental team for this.

I hope CR does not select another experimental team for this.

Cripes, I think any lineup he puts out at the moment is a bit of a lottery!

 

[Graz]

Tough choice on the lineup for this one - I'll say the same as I said in the last round; we need to pick a team that has a chance of winning and only rotate in players who have a realistic chance of pushing for a first team slot. Problem at the minute is those in the first team slots are doing so badly, that places are pretty open!

Some of those in the first team (Morgan, Fuchs) probably need dropping/"resting" whereas others probably need game time and something to go their way (e.g. Vardy).

I'd be looking at something along the lines of:

Kasper

Simpson (would rest him if we had an alternative!)
Benny
Huth (because Was should never play)
Chilwell

Gray
Mendy
King
Kapustska

Musa
Vardy

Would debate letting Musa play in Vardy's normal role though and pairing him with Slimani or Ulloa.

2-0 Leicester. Yakubu, King.

What a goal that one was by Yakubu.
Left thigh, right thigh, left foot into the top right corner. Delightful.

For anyone new to LCFC..... Phwooar. Enjoy

 

[Motown Fox]

Alan Young thought he was a shit lazy player though

Both goals that night were superb the flowing football before Kingy's goal was sublime

 

[big_mac4824]

People are really clutching at straws on here

King championship standard
Musa championship
Slimani done ok needs a season to bed in
Gray championship too eratic
Mendy premiership squad player
Kaputska unknown quantity sensational for Poland
Claudio has moved the players around too much a lot was forced by Mendy's injury but now we sit far to deep and it is as though Claudio has lost his bottle we need a settled side Albrighton must start the majority of games good or bad, Mahrez I think will be a different player when he returns.

I just want us to go at teams win or lose foxes never quit !

Not even close mate King is inferior in every department most notably being able to tackle !

 

[Mawsley]

6/1 odds for more than five goals in this game

And what are the odds if we score?

 

[big_mac4824]

Kasper

Simpson Benalouane Huth Chilwell

Gray Mendy NDidi Kapustka

Shinji

Vardy​

Albrighton offers more cover for Simpson Gray flatters to decieve Southampton was a shinning example

This season?

 

[big_mac4824]

This season?

Yes, this season at the beginning DD was literally holding us together, recently he has been out of position or partnered with Amartey or King.
Sadly for King he is much more of an attacking midfielder who arrives late in the box, he struggles to manipulate the game in the middle of tge park.

 

[Skitzo]

well he was playing upfront at Southampton first half and was on the left second half
