Sheffield United... Away.. Tuesday.

Recommended Posts

People need to realise the importance of Europa league qualification to Leicester as a club. This could make or break us as a club. Haven't you realised how we can't attract the higher class established premier league players because of our current situation. Remember how Micheal Keane and Sigurdsson choose everton over us it is because of us lacking European football if we don't qualify for Europe we will become a one season wonder mahrez wants to leave, vardy's getting older and our champions league money won't last forever the chance for this club to go to the next level in football is fading away.

 

This season is a make or break season for us fail to qualify for Europe this season and it will be along time before we will go to Europe again. The EFL cup is more important for us then it ever was before because it is our best chance of getting to where we want to be.

I wouldn't fully rotate, at this stage, I'd put in anyone that needs minutes and rest anyone that needs it.

 

I'd go with this.

 

Jakupovic



 

Simpson Benalouane Maguire Chilwell

 

King Iborra Amartey

 

Gray Slimani Musa

Mendy or Moore won't play. Moores out on loan and Mendy only played 45 minutes for the u23s the other night and asked to come off because  he was knackered 

well then this is a great way to get mendy back in the lineup. or maybe bring him on as a sub

We should be looking to win. We should want to win a trophy.

 

Can't wait. Haven't been Bramall Lane for years - since King scored the winner last time.

He was miles of the pace in the U23s so I don't think  throwing him in against a championship side will do him any favours

Darnell Johnson at RB? Mendy and Huth to get game time.

Doubt either will play, personally. Especially Mendy. 

 

Hamer 

 

Amartey Benalouane Maguire Chilwell

 

Gray King James Musa

 

Ulloa Slimani

Vardy - can't be risked.

Okazaki - rest.

Albrighton - rest

Morgan - dodgy back.

Maguire - the only fit top cb rest.

Iheanacho ,  Ibora - out.

Simpson - unless we sign someone,  he's all we've got - don't risk.

 

We've got some players we need to really know about or just get rid of surely.

 

Schmeichel 

RB? - Armarty - Huth - Fuchs

(Wes may be out so try Armarty at CB, if he can't do it against Sheffield then sorry, he's never going to be a RB or midfielder at top level so get rid. Huth needs the game).

 

Gray - King - Ndidi - Chilwell

(Gray and Chilwell need the game, they're the future and Marhez may be gone soon anyway)

 

Slimani and Musa 

(Slimani needs the game. Moscow fans bore testament to the fact that Musa wasn't a winger. If he can't do a Vardy type job against Sheffield then get rid or loan out, he's a waste of space, one last chance).

 

Subs. Hamer, James, Benny, Mendy? ,  Ulloa (why is he still here? ).

?'s = u23's players.

It's the League cup, not the end of the world, some of our squad badly need games, some need evaluating very quickly before the transfer window closes.

Rest players?? We've played two fooling games!! FFS.

Yes if they have a knock, Vardy, Morgan etc. but why rest Albrighton, Mahrez, James, Maguire etc.

Get some games into them early, the only position I'd change is keeper just to keep our number 2 Hamer? Match fit if he's needed.

Lets win this cup this year!!

Likely that Drinkwater will be gone or going if the papers are to be believed

 

Watford don't look like they need Slimani based on yesterdays and last weeks showing

 

Musa could end up at Hull by the end of the week, they got beat yesterday

 

So I'm trusting in Shakespeare to deliver the team he thinks can progress without risking our chances at Man U

 

As small as they may look based on their two performances to date.

 

On an other subject Smalling on th bench again yeserday

We're gonna rest players so we can lose 2-0 to United next week instead of 4-0 if we don't rest players.
