Livid Posted 12 August 2015 Share Posted 12 August 2015 Honestly no idea how this one will go, but at the minute with the new manager I feel that generally, I didn't expect Saturday's team selection. We beat a poor Sunderland side, they had a good result against a lacklustre Arsenal. This is the team we've lost most to in my lifetime so i'm naturally not that upbeat. I don't have any problems with the midfield and forward line from Saturday. I think we may need to change the defence or the midfield to accomodate Kante though. As Was didn't make the bench on Saturday I can't see him coming into a back three, if we do go to three at the back with Benalouane coming in it will be an untried trio. Would gladly take a point.

Dr The Singh Posted 12 August 2015 Share Posted 12 August 2015 This will be the true test. We played Sunderland at the right time, and we really don't get any success in London esp West Ham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbury Fox Posted 12 August 2015 Share Posted 12 August 2015 Thinking about it, if they play Tomkins at RB again, I'd have thought that CR is sure to play Mahrez down the left. Mahrez and Jeff up against a RB who is really a centre half sounds like too good an opportunity to miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARM1968 Posted 12 August 2015 Share Posted 12 August 2015 A point would be a great result. They'll have more of the ball than us, but we will counterattack like rabid badgers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy think this will be what we line up with, hopefully vardy can offer a run down the channels and then the midfield can come into the box and get on the end of a cross.

adam Posted 12 August 2015 Share Posted 12 August 2015 Does anything else think RDL is no where good enough ?He is decent enough going forward but a terrible defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyJones Posted 12 August 2015 Share Posted 12 August 2015 Even that game in 2000 was a bit fortunate. Night match, think they played with 10 men for a long time. Nicked it 1-0. Remember it because I was down in London staying overnight with family celebrating a birthday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfcsnow Posted 12 August 2015 Share Posted 12 August 2015 I'd be surprised if Schlupp keeps his place at left back, Ranieri was going spare at him in the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What can I expect? I think they're defence will be harder to break down. However I'm still confident we've got enough to get a win. 2-1 city.

Master Fox Posted 12 August 2015 Share Posted 12 August 2015 We're definitely overdue an epic victory in London. I think this might be the one. I predict scenes behind the goal in the away section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
