Match Thread Leicester v Burnley

[Jeff]

Schmeichel, De Laet, Konchesky, Drinkwater, Morgan, Hammond, Vardy, Schlupp, Moore, Ulloa, Mahrez

 

[Jeff]

Subs: Hamer, James, King, Knockaert, Wasilewski, Nugent, Wood.

 

[Profondo Rosso]

Schlupp?

Cambiasso not even on the bench?

 

[Miles Away]

What's the Cambiasso deal here?

Surely has to be fitness? Seems bizarre.

That side looks decidedly "championship" to me. Anxious.

 

[dpjfox]

back to 442 no surprise as Burnley play same formation, nice to see Knocky involved, still no Powell or Lawrence, maybe Cambo has a knock or not preferred in this system

 

[Profondo Rosso]

Shakespeare says leaving Cambiasso out the squad was more tactical as James and King are more attacking options from the bench.

 

[Miles Away]

Bonkers. Absolute madness.

Dean Hammond starts and Cambiasso can't get on the bench?

 

[jas123]

schlupp will score 2 simples

 

[Jeff]

I'd have had James instead of Hammond, but apart from that it's the team I'd have picked.

 

[Miles Away]

Also disappointed to see Nugent dropped in this one.

Maybe I'm just being grumpy.

Again, Stowell says a full squad to pick from. Maybe Esteban is needed for other "bigger" fixtures. Maybe he had a poor week in training and Knocky worked his socks off.

 

[Profondo Rosso]

I'd have had James instead of Hammond, but apart from that it's the team I'd have picked.

Wouldn't have had Schlupp near the squad. Players who are pure pace rarely shine on soggy pitches in the rain. Would've had Knockaert, Powell or Albrighton ahead of him.

But hey ho, Nige has proven he knows more than me, so Schlupp will probably have a blinder now.

 

[Miles Away]

Schlupp is one of the few decisions I do agree with.


Yep, definitely just grumpy.

I had no idea what the weather was like. It's dry and sunny here. But I'd still have picked Schlupp.

 

[jas123]

i like schlupp, he will get his confidence up in this game for sure

 

[Micky]

Burnley will make it very difficult. Two banks of four. Cambiasso the man to thread the killer pass. I guess not.

Tuned into NBC, only to see Hammond.. moving sideways.

Bonkers. Absolute madness.

According to soccer Saturday Cambiasso has a slight knock.

Told you Schlupp shouldn't be playing.
