This is a perfect situation to get him up to speed, this is likely to be our last game to 'test things out' so hopefully Ranieri is ready to put plan B into motion I thought we've been playing our plan B all this season - polar opposite of last season (Plan A) . Time for Plan A to make a return!
Vocey Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 Is James in the squad? with the squad that's gone I'd love a front 3 of gray musa and schlupp, sit deep and hit on the break.
justfoxes Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 This game is worthless really other than bravado wanting a clean sheet or 100% free of loss !! Time now to rest the first team lads and give the fringe players a chance of playing in the Champions League such as Gray/Ndwuku (spelling) chilwell etc!! Give them the night off rest the first team do the likes of Morgan etc need to travel to Portugal keep them home and give them a kick up the arse to get results in the important matches of Premier league survival! Hoping Claudio rests most if not all and tries a different formation tonight as 4-4-2 is not working for us !! going for the draw tho whatever team Claudio puts on the team sheet !!
kingcarr21 Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 Sat at Lisbon airport bout to get plane to Porto. Get the beers in lads
goose2010 Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 10/1 is a massive price for us tonight. Yes we are playing a weakened team but knowing us we will win tonight! Will be on the CSKA, Leicester double at about 65/1!

Know his Leicester career and seen many times. Hype suggests exaggerated reports and comments. Don't expect the world obviously but he does shine in the development teams that have been underperforming until lately. On recent showing's you'd pick him out as being the 7m player, not Kapustka. Plays a simple and confident game but will if gets anytime it will be in unchartered territory. I think he'll make it in time regardless.

Can't believe he is struggling so much in training that he can't at least get a few sub appearances. The wait goes on Those that watch the youth team seem to think Barnes has so far this season been far better than Kapustka.

Master Fox Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 Does remind of the Elvis situation some what. We were so bad at the time we were all calling for Elvis to start because he a bit of pace.

yorkie1999 Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 The one downside is that Andy King's not playing.

AYLESBURY FOX 1961 Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 i havent come all this way to see us just roll over - these are professionals ffs so time to start acting like it!
Nick Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 I'm hopeful that Mendy and Drinks get some time together in midfield - really hope Mendy gets 45-60 mins then I'd like to see Barnes come on. Giving an 18 year old a Champions League debut? Stuff dreams are made of surely! Come on Harvey take your chance!

lgfualol Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 Yeah Barnes better play and come on before the 89th minute
foxy boxing Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 Can't believe we are playing in the Champions league and people are saying the game is meaningless and worthless FFS. we'd like to remain unbeaten in the group stages that would be an incredible achievement in our first season, and show the rest of Europe that we won't be pushovers in the knockout stage.we need to play well and use the Champions league experience to help with our league form whoever plays should want and need to put in a performance worthy of the shirt and play for pride and spirit

Who scouted players like Kapustka though? Are we to believe Walsh left us with a load of duds before he left for Everton?
Babylon Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 Just now, Kitchandro said: Who scouted players like Kapustka though? Are we to believe Walsh left us with a load of duds before he left for Everton? I've always thought it was Ranieri, it was he who was making all the calls to the head of the Polish club and Kapustka. It seemed to me very much like a rush buy having seen him in the Euros. Especially if we signed him without ever seeing him live (as John Percy said)... don't think that's happened under Walsh as he was regularly off checking on people.

Guest CityFan 06 Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 Given the news about certain players not involved tonight, I reckon it will be this lineup: Zieler Simpson Morgan Hernandez Fuchs Gray Mendy Drinkwater Schlupp Musa Okazaki
norwichfox Posted 7 December 2016 Posted 7 December 2016 9 hours ago, Royston. said: coincidence?? Nah....it's a conspiracy to keep his cost down before we transfer him At last there is realisation from Claudio that something has to change, and he is well aware that the owners may think he's the one trhat needs changing. I really hope we can pull a rabbit out of the hat tonight and have an outstanding team performance. All of a sudden I'm fully interested in this game...last night I was in the couldn't give a sh*t camp
