If that's the case why are we not playing him there. apparently Leicester City are right and every other team he has ever played for is wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxxed Posted 11 May 2017 Share Posted 11 May 2017 Fuchs trained. So did definitely, definitely ineligible Barnes! (although the u23s have been training with the first time for a while I think) So both Morgan and Huth are injured? Play Benny and Amartey. We could try Was but then I'd rather test out Amartey as a centre back. Or do wing backs with a back three of Simpson, Benny and Fuchs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jammie82uk Posted 11 May 2017 Share Posted 11 May 2017 Stat time Man City have won only two of their last seven Premier League meetings with the Foxes (D2 L3). Leicester have won their last two league games against the Citizens, scoring at least three goals each time (3-1 in February 2016 and 4-2 in December 2016) – the Foxes haven’t won three in a row against City for 50 years (March 1967). The Foxes have won five of their last six top-flight visits to Manchester City (L1), their only defeat in this run a 0-2 reverse in March 2015 under Nigel Pearson. Manchester City have won their last four home Premier League games against reigning champions – each of the last two were by a three-goal margin (4-1 v Manchester United in September 2013 and 3-0 v Chelsea in August 2015). Pep Guardiola’s side have lost just once at home this season in the Premier League, though have drawn seven times (W9 D7 L1). Jamie Vardy has scored seven times in his last 10 Premier League games, after just five in his first 22 this campaign. Vardy’s only Premier League hat-trick came in the reverse fixture against Manchester City in December. Sergio Aguero needs two more goals to reach 20 in the Premier League this season. If he manages this, he’ll be the fifth player to score 20+ goals in three consecutive seasons after Alan Shearer (four seasons), Thierry Henry (five seasons), Ruud van Nistelrooy and Harry Kane. Craig Shakespeare has won seven of his first 10 Premier League games in charge of Leicester (W7 D1 L2), two more than Claudio Ranieri managed in his first 10 (W5 D4 L1). Kevin De Bruyne has assisted six goals in his last seven Premier League matches, including two last time out against Crystal Palace. The Foxes are looking to record back-to-back away wins for the first time this season, last doing so on their way to the title in April 2016 (three in a row).

foxes21 Posted 12 May 2017 Share Posted 12 May 2017 or maybe 5-4-1 Schmeichel Simpson, Amartey, Benny, Fuchs, Chilwell Mahrez, King, Ndidi, Albrighton Vardy I know Simpson isn't a RWB, but lets be honest we won't be doing a lot of attacking anyway. Mahrez/King/Albrighton will still get chances to push forward and assist Vardy on the counter. Wasilewski could start instead of Amartey if Shakespeare doesn't trust the latter at CB.

Depends what you think is the first 11.Seem to have done pretty well recently without Morgan,seemed to do pretty well in the reverse fixture when it was not the first 11. Need I go on.

Thracian Posted 12 May 2017 Share Posted 12 May 2017 It'll be a commendable achievement if Shaky gets anything out of our trip Manchester in the circumstances but it will be fascinating to see how he tries. We have some decent options and perhaps we'll see something positive emerge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
