8-0 Danns with all of them, triggering a hitherto unnoticed clause in his contract causing a multi-million pound payout pushing us into the financial abyss.

 

[M17TT C]

No Vardy!?! Pearson out.

 

[tedfoxxx]

No Vardy!?! Pearson out.

Or DD. They must be on their way out.

I think you're entitled to a night off when you win us the opening game of the season. Rest up Vards and Drinks and we'll see you on Sunday.

No, no, they've definitely shit in every senior member of staffs' car.

No left back in the team. Unless James is Reece James. Has Konchesky left?

Dyer as wing back?

Dyer as wing back?

No and Yes would be my guess.

Dyer as wing back?

De Laet at left back and a diamond in midfield?

 

[tedfoxxx]

Is anyone else going to be joining Jeff, M17TT C, London Fox and myself in this thread tonight.

I have so many questions.

 

[Scotfox]

whose the diamond?

 

[tedfoxxx]

Sounds like a 5-3-2 given what Shakespeare has just said on RL.

The Christmas pudding formation, with Danns in there as the sixpence.

 

[tedfoxxx]

Danns has nothing to prove according to Young......

 

[Matt_B]

Surely just Moore at Rb and De Laet at Lb?

 

[homer]

Danns has nothing to prove according to Young......

Quite right - his last appearance in this competition was truly special..

 

[Jeff]

Surely just Moore at Rb and De Laet at Lb?

The official site says "Lloyd Dyer replaced Paul Konchesky at left wing back."

 

[Jeff]

Nigel Pearson made four changes to the side that beat Middlesbrough as last season's top scorer David Nugent returned to the starting XI for Tuesday night's Captial One cup tie at Wycombe.
He replaced Saturday's match winner Jamie Vardy to partner Chris Wood in attack, while Neil Danns joined Matty James and Andy King in a midfield three in place another of Saturday's goalscorers, Danny Drinkwater.

The manager stuck with the 3-5-2 formation for the first round match, but with Zak Whitbread injured, Liam Moore was drafted into the back three and Lloyd Dyer replaced Paul Konchesky at left wing back.

I may well be lurking, does that count?

Commentary seems to be available via the Radio Leicester website, due to being a cup game I guess.
