filbertway Posted 20 September 2016 Posted 20 September 2016 Drinky barely moved in extra time so you can probably stop crying about that. Same team as played against Burnley and we'll play out a boring 1-1 with both goals coming from set pieces
lcfcdamo Posted 20 September 2016 Posted 20 September 2016 Out of all players drinkwater should of bin the first 1 to be given a rest imagine if he got injured playing in that fuchs and huth are massive to us also marhez and Albrighton thank god all back Saturday

Can we get him sacked second season running? Trying to get odds on this happening. Would it be the first time a club has got a manager sacked in consecutive seasons
Gazza M Posted 20 September 2016 Posted 20 September 2016 Kasper Fuchs Huth Morgan Simpson Albrighton Drinkwater Amartey Marhez Slimani Vardy No choice. Must go this way if we want to be competitive.
weller54 Posted 20 September 2016 Posted 20 September 2016 3-1 defeat. ...if ranieri does his ostrich impression and stays with a midfield 2... Which I think he will.
tsintskaro Posted 20 September 2016 Posted 20 September 2016 Tbh i believe they cant score more then 1 goal They are shit so far after 1:1 Joze was playing for draw against Swansea
Dan Posted 20 September 2016 Posted 20 September 2016 We can't be as bad as the last two away games in the league surely?
Nick Posted 20 September 2016 Posted 20 September 2016 If they lose to Northampton later today and we were to beat them at Old Trafford on Saturday Jose will be under so much pressure...... The cobblers have an amazing home record and it will be their cup final - wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if they got a result. I also think we'll line up 442 and we'll hurt them on Saturday - close game but with a few goals - I've gone for a 3-2 Leicester win.
lcfcben76 Posted 20 September 2016 Posted 20 September 2016 I'm not sure we should play 442, kind of want to pack the midfield but with the mins played today I'm not too sure what options we have there

If we go 3 up expect Vardy or Slimani to come off for King, otherwise forget it!

Must go this way if we want to be competitive. I get a warm fuzzy feeling seeing that starting 11 back together! Hope Drinky is at 100%. Such an important player for us. Simpson looked pretty knackered tonight too. This upcoming performance will show how close we are at getting back to the form of last season. Amartey needs to have a big game! I'm hopeful of a win but if not, then I want to at least see a decent, encouraging performance like we had against Arsenal.
AyewJoking Posted 21 September 2016 Posted 21 September 2016 depends if man utd take the wounded animal approach or turn on their manager and let us win!! IF we have our heads on we should surely take 3 points but its a potential banana skin. might cover myself with a £20 bet on a utd win

Ric Flair Posted 21 September 2016 Posted 21 September 2016 Surely we don't be reckless and go 4-4-2 from the off? Have we learnt nothing? I'm not sure who we sacrifice but 4-4-2 away at places like Old Trafford is criminal as shown in the hiding we got at Liverpool. I'd be a bit more cautious and try to play a 4-3-3 and as the game wears on then go 4-4-2. Could we have Vardy/Slimani drop slightly wide and Albrighton narrow to make up a 3rd central midfielder? He's hardly world class at tackling but I think he'd do a Milneresque job. Then when we break we still have all the gang to cause havoc.

sylofox Posted 21 September 2016 Author Posted 21 September 2016 Jose at his games Drinky for 30m in Jan He could suck my right bollok for that but he won't get Drinky for that. A proven pre English player in Jan for 30m after this summer I would not even think about it till they hot 75m plus they pay for his replacement and any wage increase we have to make. Oh and we get triple allocation of away tickets. All free for the next 100yrs
lgfualol Posted 21 September 2016 Posted 21 September 2016 Rashford/Big nose will definitely score. But I feel good about seeing Slimani and Vardy again. Trouble is 442 works against Burnley/Swansea but could be a problem.
foxes21 Posted 21 September 2016 Posted 21 September 2016 It will be 4-4-2, it's what we know. If it's not 4-4-2, I wouldn't mind seeing 4-3-1-2. Crazy thought but could Hernandez play the CDM role? I mean... He's suppose to be a great passer of the ball & reader of the game. Plus we'd get to use his long throws, without having to drop any of our usual back four. Claudio tried it in pre-season, with Liam Moore. Kasper Simpson Morgan Huth Fuchs Drinkwater Hernandez Amartey Mahrez Vardy Slimani
StriderHiryu Posted 21 September 2016 Posted 21 September 2016 I expect a defeat given our poor record at Old Trafford and the mega bucks they have spent. However, it wouldn't surprise me if we got a result. Hoping Super Slim rips them a new one! The key is our defence. This season we've looked better going forwards but worse at the back. If we keep it tight then we can cause them problems as shown in the Community Shield.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 21 September 2016 Posted 21 September 2016 It depends on our reaction but I expect a better showing to be fair scrape a 1-1 draw wouldn't be a disaster after all it is Manchester United win for Leicester City :FC: would be better
tsintskaro Posted 21 September 2016 Posted 21 September 2016 They are also playing with 2 midfielders in centre Fellaini/Pogba can be beaten by DD and Amartey predicteble lineup Ibra Rashford-Rooney-Mata Fellaini-Pogba Simpson will have a lot work to do And they dont have solid substitute who can score or create something
