foxes21 Posted 25 August 2016 Share Posted 25 August 2016 3 games a week, but we couldn't have asked for a better CL group . Personally, I believe we have enough strength in depth to rotate for each game & still compete to a high standard. In terms of back up we have some very reliable performers: Zieler, Wasyl, Benny (when fit), King, Schlupp, James (when fit), Ulloa and then players that will get better with games: Amartey, Hernandez, Chilwell, Gray. These are all players we can count on to do a job for us when we need to rest Drinkwater/Mahrez/Vardy/Mendy/Huth etc. What a time to be alive!!

StanSP Posted 25 August 2016 Share Posted 25 August 2016 one of the most important things being that we play at home after every CL game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brucey Posted 25 August 2016 Share Posted 25 August 2016 But playing away to difficult PL teams 3-4 days before each CL game.. is that adequate rest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srevell580 Posted 25 August 2016 Share Posted 25 August 2016 What is the possibility of the Burnley and Man City games being moved as well? Champions League games on the Wednesday and currently the Premier League games scheduled for the Saturday a few days later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the price you pay for being in the CL. More games. No use complaining about it, just got to get on with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmyLGK Posted 26 August 2016 Share Posted 26 August 2016 Whilst on paper our squad looks good I've yet to see any evidence that shows anyone other than our regular starting 11 plus a couple of others e.g. chillwell and grey, can actually compete at the same level. That's not me being a miserable sod - they simply haven't had any games together so are unknown quantities. I still feel we need more players - especially in mid-field. It's only a matter of time before Vardy and Marhez start finding the back of the net again and then they'll be tearing up the PL and CL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urban.spaceman Posted 26 August 2016 Share Posted 26 August 2016 We are home after each CL game but we're also away before all of them - and the first 4 at least are quite big games too. Liverpool, Man Utd, Chelsea, Spurs. Add to that longer distances like Liverpool, Man Utd and Sunderland. Will be interesting to see how we do and how Claudio plans for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
