Porto (home) Pre-Match Thread

Glad Albrighton getting rested too.

Simpson and Drinky though have played plenty of minutes these last 7 days.

I'm expecting the hardest game for Porto in the group on Tuesday. We want to win, but it's not going to be easy to play in the King Power. I'd be good with a 1-1 draw.

 

Especially considering Porto's terrible record when playing in England...

I don't think slimani will be playing this. Got a feeling will be Musa. Why else would he leave slimani on all game today?

Because 11 substitutions aren't allowed.

The man's nickname is the Dragon Slayer for a reason. 6 in 6 against them. He's not getting dropped.

Don't normally enter these thread (Abit of a stupid superstition I have) but drop Mahrez! Hurt the fucker, I really think it would hit him where it hurts being dropped in a CL game, hopefully we'd get a reaction/it would hit home to him he's not undroppable.

Would go for this 

 

                 Zieler

Simpson Morgan Huth Fuchs

      Drinkwater Amartey

               Okazaki

Mahrez    Slimani   Gray

 

Subs: Hamer, Hernandez, Schlupp, King, Kapustka, Vardy, Musa

 

Dropping Vardy may be harsh but not been that impressed with him. I'd rather have Slimani up top and Gray/Mahrez linking up with him. Might stop us doing constant hoofs to nobody.

His experience against them for sporting could be a real bonus.

Exactly. Just having him on the pitch will give Porto a bit of anxiety and probably give more room to our other players.

Sorry but Ranieri **** off, Gray came on and we looked so much better, one touch passing better movement and scored a great goal and nearly scored another, set up glorious chances by putting balls across the box, what more does a young kid need to do to get into our team?

I can soon imagine young players not coming to us, we complain about Chelsea loaning out players but at least they get game time, we seem to stockpile them and not doing anything so they dont develop. Look at Kapustka, plays for Polands first team yet can't get infront of Schlupp who doesn't try and beat his man when he has space to run into.

Just can't agree with that. Before today Gray had done nothing to force his way in to the side.  Claudio won us the league ffs.
