Pre Match Leicester vs Everton - Boxing day

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

I think it could be Wes, Was and Hernandez across the back with an extra in midfield. Amartez looked great in midfield and should stay there with Drinkwater, Mahrez, Albrighton and either Mendez or King. Slimani and Okazaki to start up front. Ulloa and Gray to come on in the second half.

 

[Skitzo]

is Drinkwater even training? we know Claudio likes them to have a full week of it before he brings them back in

How can Mendy play 90 in Porto and then be nowhere to be seen again?

we rarely make subs in CM and he's been a sub every game since, which given they are constantly outnumbered is even more strange

 

[Volpone]

How can Mendy play 90 in Porto and then be nowhere to be seen again?

How can James play the last 2 minutes against Man City and then disappear without trace?

Ask BN.

I could have sworn I'd seen him on the bench yesterday.

I could have sworn I'd seen him on the bench yesterday.

If he's on the bench then he's surely ready to play?

Or are we continuing with Andy King in the middle to give everyone a laugh?

 

[Miles Away]

King has played pretty well recently.

King was great yesterday. Mendy was woeful against Porto (granted, along with the rest).

Thankfully Clownio chooses the team.

I'll give Mendy the benefit of the doubt for Porto (the only one of the lot). Given he's not featured since I suspect he's still getting back into fitness now, so two weeks ago would have been very rusty.

Looks like our new striker is getting to know his fellow team mates. No one's gonna him any shit

 

[Graz]

Move Mahrez into the centre to work with Slimani and you can get Gray in without dropping Albrighton

Kasper

Simpson
Morgan
Hernandez
Chilwell

Gray
King
Amartey
Albrighton

Mahrez

Slimani

Or just put Gray there.

Has Gary Taylor-Fletcher rejoined?

 

[big_mac4824]

amartey looked good in midfield but he filled in at CB a lot during the game. It's his natural position



You wouldn't drop King or Amartey because of the message it'd send yet you'd drop Albrighton who has been our second best player this season. Drinky has been the best - he IS back in.


I'd drop King in a second for King but I'd like Drinky and Mendy so would like Amartey playing in his CB role.



Again Dropping albrighton is madness. fuchs is weakened without him covering. chilwell definitely needs the cover.

Gray will replace Mahrez when he goes to AFCON and prove his worth, until then he gets the last 20 minutes.

I think Kaputska will feat during the ACON

I didn't realise he was African.

 

[yackandandah]

That's how I read it at first Volpone!

Then it dawned...

 

[big_mac4824]

Apologies poorly scripted

 

[dpjfox]

It will be interesting how CR shuffles the pack due to suspensions. I think Gray deserves a start. Hernandez seems out of favour and i think Wasyl may start next to Morgan. As Chilwell will probably replace Fuchs . i think they might put a pacy winger against him(eg Lennon) therefore Albrighton or Gray will have to carry out defensive duties. They also have a couple of players out. Im hoping for a narrow 1-0 win but expecting 1-1 draw Okazaki)
