Starting line up v Villa?

Recommended Posts

Posted

Schmeichel

 

Was - Huth - Wes

 

Albrighton - Kanté - Drinky - Schlupp

 

Mahrez

 

Okazaki - Vardy

 

It won't be that though, so I'm imagining it'll be basically what you've said, maybe not starting Inler yet but definitely Kanté

As above but with Ulloa or Kramaric in for Okazaki as he might be knackered after his Japan game...

Up the City....

 

okazaki dont get tired mate

Schmeichel

Was - Huth - Wes

Albrighton - Kanté - Drinky - Schlupp

Mahrez

Okazaki - Vardy

I'd be happy with this. Definitely want to see the return of 3 at the back.

He's also been away with Algeria and will probably be knackered.

 

 

It is a 2 hour flight from here, no? One home game and one away shouldn't be that bad.

I want 3 at the back, he's not going to play 3 at the back

If he plays Vardy upfront by himself I think they'll beat us

Ulloa + Vardy running beyond him for me

Predicting a 442 though, with us being a bit predictable and the unplayable pacey edge we had further eroded away, in place of 'tactics'

Leicester 1 Villa 2

Or actually utilising pace City 3 Villa 1

We won't keep a clean sheet again though

The very suggestion that Drinkwater should play ahead of King just baffles me. What does Kingy have to do?  Yes, I know the influence Huth had in turning us from serial losers to serial winners but Kingy returned at around the same time as Huth arrived and who in the whole of Europe has bettered our results since? 

 

King's problem to far too many watchers is that he's the antithesis of melodramatic. Apart from so many sublime goals over the years he's mostly so far under the radar he'd make stealth bombers seem more visible than the rising sun on a clear day in the desert.

 

But, while I entirely accept that Drinky's been an excellent servant, Kingy does things in places Drinky rarely sees. In some ways it's a pity Kingy's sacrificed his considerable goalscoring prowess to be of arguably greater service to the team but if City have ever got a good Premiership result, there's a fair chance Kingy was involved.

 

Drop him and the results will change, mark my words. Why? Because Kingy's the go-to. The one player who can pass the ball quickly and efficiently under the fiercest pressure and never lose his cool.

 

If everyone played like Kingy we'd hardly ever lose the ball. He's not  fleet of foot and he's no Danny Tiatto, much to the regret of so many City supporters but he wins and retains possession countless times and, if he's given the luxury of having passing options to be found then he's the only person in the City squad I'd back to find them. Others find them sometimes, if they're given the time. Kingy finds em whatever.

 

Pressure's not a problem to him because he's never inclined to elaborate in the first place. One and two-touch football could have been invented for the guy.

Agree 100% that Kingy should not be the one to move aside for Kante, not sure that Inler is fully up to speed with the English game so, for now, Kante and King should be the central 2, a more interesting situation will arise when Inler is ready !

Kingy regularly has matches where he does absolutely **** all, Drinkwater's been showing a lot more creativity anger better range of passing than King. King in his best matches so far in the Premiership has been better than Drinkwater usually is, but Drinkwater I think has potential to be much better than King is. He wasn't very good for most of the last match but other than that he's been great

I think Dyer will play instead of Riyad tomorrow.

Ranieri said that Dyer isn't ready to be in the starting lineup yet. Of course he could be bluffing but I don't think so

I 100% agree with the OP team tbh

This is a bit baffling :-)
