I'm just saying by half time it will be apparent that it is not a 4-3-3 formation. you might be a optimist but even so you should be able to draw a simple conclusion that we have fielded a very cautious first 11 today

Who would you change? Beckford for Dyer is the only one I can think of, and given how ineffective both are, it makes no odds.

Beckford for Wellens or King. Whilst Dyer is far from great, if we're going to persist with at least 4 across the midfield he needs to start. Wellens and King have still yet to show any real form even though Pearson has given them ample opportunity to do so. you only really need to make one change to make that line up more ambitious. Argument for Abe to start with his consistent display in the last few games and whilst he's defensively minded he's distribution is better than Wellens and Wellens slows the game down anyway so swapping those two wouldn't effect our forward momentum.

I'd assume it's Danns, King, Wellens in middle, Gally and Dyer out wide, and the rest are fairly obvious. The old 4-5-1/4-3-3 approach. Don't see the problem with the formation but it's a disappointment that he still persisting with Wellens who hasn't had a decent game for feck knows how long. He's been as bad as Beckford.
Edit: Also I'm concerned that dropping Kennedy and Abe to the bench could be sending out the wrong message, just like during Sven's time here the bigger names get the places regardless of how well they've done when they needed to step in. Both these two did well previously, particularly Abe who has lost his place to an out of sorts player.

Dyer has been far and away worse than any other player this season.
NP read the criticism of the team on here and decided to make a late change to make it more attacking.

He's our only wide player so if your playing that type of midfield you need wide players. We don't need to boss the midfield, Barnsley have lost 5 of the last 6 it's not as though we're playing a team on fire. We do not need an extra man in the middle.

We're playing Barnsley at home. Never in my life have I ever expected anything other than a home win in this fixture. And i expect it today. Side looks reasonably logical. We haven't got much in the way of attackers and Beckford has been so poor that he doesn't merit a starting place. If he gets on the pitch its down to him to start earning his money. 2-0 Leicester.

Either way. Crunchy chicken kickers has moved on, so oversight!
All the sites that use Press Association data have Crunchy in the team instead of Tunchev. They'll probably blame a computer. Wankers.
