Arsenal pre-match thread

Time we smashed Arsenal to be fair. Ulloa should have won it for us at home last season. We owe them.

Can see us having 33% possession and blowing them away with our power and pace.

So 1-3 to Arsenal then.

Kasper

 

Wasyl Huth Morgan

 

Albrighton Kante Drinkwater Schlupp

 

Mahrez

 

Vardy Okazaki

 

 

Would love this.

 

Bring Dyer and Kram on with 30 to go.

Just out of curiosity, why do posters keep putting up complete team selections, are you all hoping, Claudio will give you a call

inviting you in has profi team selector.???

For the first time ever, I'm not feeling that playing Arsenal the result will be a formality in their favour - am I right in thinking they are the only team we have never beat in a premier league game ?

Bring it on ... I really fancy us to win this

Last season I didn't care about the League Cup. ​It was all about survival in the Prem. When we lost to Shrewsbury I thought it was a blessing in disguise. Small squad, couldn't afford injuries or distractions etc.

This season, I genuinely believe we will stay up comfortably. A cup run would be brilliant and some of my best memories as an LCFC fan are to do with winning things – play off finals and League Cup finals. 

 

Play a strong team. Show intent. Keep the momentum. Forget about needing to bring Inler up to scratch, offer Fuchs playing time or show Benalouane that he's part of the plans. 

Win, proceed and that will make them try even harder to break into the team.

Not an easy game for me. My best mate in the antiques game is an Arsenal fan. Not just any Arsenal fan but a guy who attends even pre-season friendlies in places like Kiev and has all the shirts and anecdotes to prove it.

Okay, he's a year or two past those halcyon days now but there'll be absolutely no holding him if they win and no coping with his misery for months if they lose. 

Sure, I'm pretty laid back about football and more than willing to take the good with the bad but basically there's only one result I'll even entertain - and that's a well-deserved win for the Foxes. Or even a controversial 1-0 or the biggest fluke of a victory ever witnessed.    

Anything that gives us three points will let me buy him beers til he's swimming in the stuff - and no matter how many jars he can count on the bar it won't change the result and it won't take the great big grin off my face. :D  :scarf:

Correct, how dare we have an opinion? Assume you were on the beers last night but this post is as stupid as they come.

People saying 3 at the back will not happen I think could soon be wrong if we keep conceding. I think the backroom team will point out the fact how tight we were end of season with a back 3 of players already here at the club. Mahrez has proved he can easily play behind the front two to allow albrighton on the right and schlupp on the left with dyer as sub

Have an opinion all you want but it's pointless putting up teams in that formation.

 

There is absolutely zero indication that we will be playing three at the back any time soon.

Where did anyone mention formations? He's asking why people post line up predictions.

Costa has shown us the way. Get in their faces and wind the up. They have great players but no discipline in a fight. Hope we get the right ref!

I'd love to go three at the back - it seems the only way we can keep genuine pace in the side and accommodate our best players.

 

I can't see another way of facilitating our midfield players capable of getting forward and scoring without leaving Vardy up front and isolated.

 

Play Jeff at the back, Wes and Huth/RDL

 

Then in midfield we can have Dyer, Albrighton Kante, Drinks and Mahrez

 

Then Vards and Okazaki/Ulloa

 

Our pace is our best weapon - we not only fail to score but also conceed when we play without it.

Everyone, should, can, must have an opinion, but again why bother to choose an whole team.Far better banter to put your preferences, which individuals would you prefer, with the reasons why.

Plonking a page of team choice on a football forum, seems monotonous to me. 2- 3 fans post then the same, each one

believing it explains their train of thought, usually their selections are for differing reasons.

IMO....put up a couple of names, then why your preferences, sets up a better base for good forum-banter.

Our first proper test dare I say. 

 

What will happen though, is that Arsenal will be gifted numerous questionable refereeing decisions after Arsene has had a good moan about Mike Dean - it's always the case.

 

I'd like to see:

 

Schmeichel

 

De Laet  Morgan  Huth  Schlupp

 

Mahrez  Drinkwater  Kante  Albrighton

 

Ulloa  Vardy

 

We will outscore Arsenal 5-4 if we play this team :ph34r:

Not quite. We beat them 2-1 at Filbo in 1993, but nowt since then.

 

I'm not quite as confident as you about Saturday, but I think the gap between us is narrower than at any time since the 1960s.
