Stringer has suggested Oakley won't be captain tomorrow. Dropped for the game, or no longer considered the team leader? Stringer also mentioned Oakley didn't look happy at training this morning.
 
So...Brown as captain then? :icon_conf

I haven't been to the last 2 games, but by all accounts Brown has been shite in both.

Stringer hinted on twitter that tomorrow would be an interesting day.
 
Brown was awful on Tuesday, but would Nige really drop him for Morrison? Especially if he's dropping/decaptaining Oakley? I don't know, I suppose the armband could go to Howard or Hobbs or Wellens.... Maybe Powell will make an appearance tomorrow?
 
I think the captain's armband is over-rated tbh, andy player can be a leader regardless of whether they are wearing the armband or not. I'd rather us not play a shite player just because he's a decent captain.
 
Before BM gets here, that was a type for "any player" and not an imaginary person called "Andy Player"
 
So what's the correct definition of the word Mr smarty pants?

There's no need to further highlight your ignorance by being insulting.

A person is reactionary if he/she reacts to change. A reactionary would want things to stay the same - so the exact opposite of what you intended to say.
 
Let's hope that Brown is captain, oh no wait, he's had a couple of poor games, let's sell the useless bastard and bring in a kid with hardly any experience of playing at this level.

Brown proved he can be a real captain when Oakley was out, let's actually show some confidence in our players.

It's not just WB's fault that no fecker on the entire pitch can close a player down, maybe they have been told to stand off the quicker players?


Do Leicester fans actually know what support means these days? sounds like the majority have no idea any more.

For me, Weale has to be the fall guy for conceeding 8 goals in 2 games. Sometimes keepers need to make saves, he's had very few busy games so far this season. When we've needed him, he's not stepped up. All 3 goals on Tuesday were stoppable, he needs to start making a difference.

The back 4 is experienced and stable. They were all awful against F****t but dropping Berner was a mistake.

Oakley and King have to go. Both are routinely passengers. Wellens is also playing poorly but he still has much more to offer than the others. Adams has to start a game soon surely? His best position is centre midfield so why not give him 2-3 games there and see what happens.

Up front, I'd go back to the partnership that results in most Fryatt goals. With us lacking in threat from anywhere else, we need to play to Fryatt's strengths and hopefully get him on a run of goals again.

I'd also stick a couple of Academy lads on the bench today. Not really intending to use them but as a message to them about how well they are doing and a message to the more senior lot that things need to change.
 
All 3 goals on Tuesday were stoppable, he needs to start making a difference.

The first goal was stoppable but not by weale by the 3 players that failed to put a tackle in. The 2nd was a wonder strike. The third he got beat on his near post so a might agree with that one.

The third goal was a stupid mistake by Hobbs. I thought Weale was out best player on Tuesday. He still cleared loads of set pieces and tried to best to command the defence.

I can't believe anyone would propose dropping Weale whilst starting Howard. What on earth has Howard done this season to deserve that?

By your definition, Tommy was about right. The change in question being, of course, that a good set of players who could beat anyone has suddenly become an apparently shite one with little interest in winning.

Second was in the air for a very long time. One criticism of him would be his feet and their movement when dealing with long-rangers.

That said he's a good Championship keeper. Doesn't really flap at anything, kicking is simple and capable of some good saves,
