Match Thread Lille v Leicester (friendly)

[Miles Away]

That’s the starting team at UTD then.

That back four is abysmal.

Gray completely missing. King, Slimani, Simpson, Okazaki.

 

[Jeff]

Gray completely missing

Injured.

 

[Miles Away]

So Periera is playing right wing?

 

[Graz]

So is Pereira playing as a right winger?

 

[Graz]

Is Shinji injured or just left out? That concerns me.

We have a big squad yet seem very short of options up front and in wide areas in particular.

 

[Lako42]

Vardy with 0 minutes of pre season, despite only ever getting half of his right knacker on the pitch at the WC.

Love that back line, it's like a practical joke.

 

[Graz]

Morgan and Chilwell have played plenty, plenty of games for us over the last 2 years. Why some people think their selection is a 'joke' is beyond me.

Morgan is easily good enough to still be a back up, and he's in cos we're missing our first 2 centre backs. Chilwell is a young player and needs time to develop - much happier with him playing than Fuchs

Except, that won't be the starting lineup at Old Trafford, will it.

 

[Miles Away]

Except, that won't be the starting lineup at Old Trafford, will it.

What will be different?

He’s already said Maguire and Vardy won’t play.

Maybe Evans overcomes his knock, but that seemed doubtful. Possibly Gray but who know there.

Looks like it. He's played there before

Benny innit.

You have to go back a while to find a back four as terrifyingly weak as that. It's actually making me wish we still had Maybury, Gerrbrand, Sheehan and Brevett.

 

[Micky]

I am predicting Evans to play at Old Trafford.

 

[fitz]

Vardy with 0 minutes of pre season, despite only ever getting half of his right knacker on the pitch at the WC.

Also likely to miss Manure game for the same reason. Unless he was on the cans like the rest of us he should be fine to play.

 

[popillius]

He said they probably wouldn't play. It wouldn't surprise me to see either or both playing or at least in the squad. Evans will play if he is fit. I think Gray will start if he is fit too.

 

[Volpone]

I am predicting Johnson to play at Man Utd. He's the best of the lot.

 

[Jeff]

I am predicting Evans to play at Old Trafford.

I'm predicting Maguire to play at Old Trafford, even if he isn't match fit, if it's a choice between him and Benalouane.

 

[TommyK]

It's scary that we could start Benny first game of the season.

 

[TornadoShaunUK]

If its a choice between Benalouane and snyone, anyone else works for me.
