According to what I have read it is available for this game tomorrow 'everywhere' except Germany and AUSTRIA????. So you should be OK?
Foxxed Posted 3 August 2017 Posted 3 August 2017 Ulloa starts. Kelechi on the bench. Ulloa plays for 90 minutes.

City1884 Posted 4 August 2017 Posted 4 August 2017 Schmeichel Simpson Morgan Maguire Fuchs Mahrez Drinkwater Ndidi Albrighton Vardy Slimani No real surprises in the starting 11 A few subs at half time, but keeping the same shape, something along the lines of: Schmeichel Simpson Morgan Maguire Chilwell Lawrence Drinkwater Ndidi Gray Vardy Iheanacho With a few more changes with 20 minutes left. James, Iborra etc.
WigstonWanderer Posted 4 August 2017 Posted 4 August 2017 So will they be going all out for this or just another pre season trading session?
foxfanazer Posted 4 August 2017 Posted 4 August 2017 Probably already been mentioned but will Iheanacho be considered for tonight do we think?

lcfcdamo Posted 4 August 2017 Posted 4 August 2017 We will play well and win tonight we are at home ive noticed alot last season we are becoming very very poor away from home then at home look a different team
Jimbo Posted 4 August 2017 Posted 4 August 2017 Is Slimani going to be available/fully fit? That was a pretty nasty cut he received last week and last I heard he needed stitches, is this correct? Not really an injury that would hamper him as such but will still need time to fully heal
LCFC FOX Posted 4 August 2017 Posted 4 August 2017 Jim said on twitter he wasn't signed in time to play tonight. have no idea why you have to be signed in time for a friendly

foxfanazer Posted 4 August 2017 Posted 4 August 2017 Hopefully an increase in intensity tonight from the boys. Gutted that Iheanacho won't feature but will be a good chance for Slim and Vardy to work on their partnership further. Will be interested to see what the midfield looks like tonight as it should be a decent indicator of how we'll set up at the Emirates next week

MrSpaM Posted 4 August 2017 Posted 4 August 2017 He's available to play, there's no reason why he wouldn't be You don't even need to be signed by the club to play in a friendly, they could play 11 blokes they've picked up outside the ground if they wanted to

Aesc Posted 4 August 2017 Posted 4 August 2017 *over-excited long post klaxon* I'd like to see Gray get a start, and James because he's looked sharper than Drinkwater so far. I'm getting a bit carried away, but I like the idea of Vardy occupying the centre-backs and making them sit deep, allowing Iheanacho some space to get involved in the build up, play it out wide, and then arrive late into the box unmarked to poach on a low cross or rebounds, assuming Vardy's not already bagged of course.. Probably a bit too attacking, but stuff it, attack is the best form of defence after all... kinda. It'd be fun to watch in any case: Kasper Simpson Morgan Maguire Fuchs Ndidi James Mahrez Iheanacho Gray Vardy However, I think it's maybe more likely that this will be closer to the team to face Arsenal, so I reckon we could start against Gladbach with: Kasper Simpson Morgan Maguire Fuchs Mahrez Ndidi Drinkwater Albrighton Iheanacho Vardy Then start the second half with: (Starting with Albrighton would allow us to practise what I'm presuming is our plan B with no subs) Kasper Simpson Morgan Maguire Albrighton Fuchs Ndidi Drinkwater Mahrez Iheanacho Vardy Then, after the 60/65 min mark, maybe gradually change to something more experimental (risky) like one of these: Although probably any combination of players in their positions, to be honest. I'm finding it difficult to decide who it would be most beneficial to see get some minutes. Gives Nacho and Slim game time together and Gray more freedom to 'express' himself. Kasper Amartey Morgan Maguire Albrighton Chilwell James Iborra Gray Slimani Iheanacho Gives Musa another chance in his best(?) position and another chance for Amartey in a central role. Kasper Simpson Morgan Maguire Chilwell Amartey James Iborra Gray Musa Slimani Youthful and energetic attacking midfield. Chilwell and Gray seem to combine well (in attack...). Kasper Simpson Morgan Maguire Chilwell James Iborra Lawrence Barnes Gray Slimani Saying that, we're probably more likely to see King, Ulloa, and Okazaki. As much as I love em, we know very well what they offer. And maybe Shakey will want to give more of the starters 90 minutes before the season begins. We'll have to see if he will chuck Kelechi straight in too. It's a shame we haven't seen anything of Barnes so far, and very little of Ndukwu, but that's obviously because we won't be seeing too much of them in the match day squads, if no one leaves. I'd have liked to see Johnson and Moore get another run out, and maybe Amartey at centre back, but at this point it probably makes more sense to give our first choice defence (minus Huth) as many minutes together as possible. No Mendy in there, but I'm guessing he's still crocked or is gonna leave and that's why we haven't seen anything of him.

SheppyFox Posted 4 August 2017 Posted 4 August 2017 KI should start IMO, he's better than 90% of our team so ultimately he's taking someone's spot, balls to their feelings I want to see our new lad and I want to win ?
