lol at some of the predictions in here. Its like they think we are playing Barcelona. I think we will do them. 442 and our best team should be wheeled out. We play the same formation and personnel for the rest of the season and I think we will win the Champions League and sneak a Champions League place although the title is a possibility.

There's optimism and then there's this.

I'd take a point right now hoping for a backs to the wall smash and grab 1-0 vardy needs dropping if slim and ulloa ain't fit shinji up top with musa and grey vardy just don't look interested people slag shinji off and I'm one of them but at least he tries

For some odd reason I think we will win this. This is the game that gonna redirect our season to the path of winning.

Lets bloody go for it as we need a bit of luck but I don't think we were far away from clicking on Friday and we may as well be positive than sit back imo!!!

Picking a balanced side with our squad is a nightmare. For all that I'd love us to have a genuinely imaginative and threatening central midfield player who can pass the ball quickly, accurately and consistently in the one-twos so vital to retaining possession and momentum, King's the only option we have. Everyone else is too slow controlling and releasing the ball, to inaccurate or too unaware.

 

Yet it's key to our cohesion and the more so considering we don't have wing-backs who, if comfortable on the ball would be a godsend.   .   

 

And in Shinji we don't even have a supplementary midfielder who can continue helping us shape the play but a terrier who rolls around so much he doesn't know what's happening some of the time.

 

What amazes me is that we've had these problems for so long without mending them either on the training ground or through the transfer market. 

 

Problems like how to field a constructively commanding central midfield.

Whether to drop Vardy and lose the potential threats we hardly see now. 

Whether to drop Shinji and lose his harrassing in the search for more goal threat and better passing. 

Whether to risk a change our back four despite having no-one else of proven capability or even recognisable promise. 

Whether to attack or go down the cautious route so natural to Ranieri, especially when playing away.

 

Every decision offers inconclusive pluses and minuses.  

And so many signings I might have expected to answer some of the above have still to do anything of note or have already moved on without making the slightest impression for ever being here. Where's the thinking in it all?

We always seem to win here but I'm not feeling it this time. We aren't even coming close in the league. Loss.

Would definitely take a point. Gotta go back to 4-4-2 I think, nothing else seems to work whatsoever. Hopefully Slim is back if not it'll have to be Vardy and Okazaki up front again, simply down to lack of options.

 

Schmeichel 

Simpson 

Morgan 

Huth 

Chilwell 

Mahrez

Drinkwater 

Ndidi

Gray

Okazaki

Slimani

 

Vardy does not deserve to be anywhere near the team based on current performances.

think CR will go 451 for this.lol

               Mahrez

               Vardy
