Hamer Simpson Huth Benalouane Fuchs Gray King James Chilwell Slimani Okazaki Subs Jakupovic, Iborra, Ulloa, Mendy,Albrighton, Mahrez, Amartey Like the thought behind the selection, though if fit, Iborra would get the nod in front of King. Seeing Slim, with Shinji another good call. If Nacho had been fit, then I would of gone with him, before Shinji. I could see CS actually putting this team out..... Vardy needs to recuperate, the knock looked heavy. Huth & Benny need game time, they still could be our 2 main CBs if we take injuries. Yes we need to get Gray and Chilly early into the season. Amartey What to do?? He has to make this season his own.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 20 August 2017 Share Posted 20 August 2017 Sheffield United will be no pushovers so I hope we select a strong enough team to progress, admittedly there will be a few changes but hopefully we will still have enough to win.

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. Leicester fans dont have to realise anything...we will always..."Know what and who we are" !!! I may want, but I dont put expectations into my life that,I cant control...If we are going to have regular European nights, over consistent seasons, then it wont come from 1 offs in EFL success. League consistency, regular top 8 position finish will build the clubs ambitions, then decent cup runs become inevitable. To be honest if we won the FA cup and again The EFL, in the next 3-4 seasons, with small Europe participation, and early exit, I would be well satisfied....My wishes are more difficult...Stay in the PL top 14 for the next 12+yrs, will do me. Jesus...what top foreign player would want to go to Leicester....We won the league, but no big-timers were interested. I hated those 10yrs in the wilderness, We also have to realise what it takes to translate just decent Expectations!! Look at WHam or Cpalace, and their reported expectations over the years...

Harry - LCFC Posted 20 August 2017 Share Posted 20 August 2017 I expect and accept that there will be changes but lets not throw the tie. In my supporting lifetime this season may be the best chance we've had to win one of the cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree we need to become stable as a club but to attract the sort of players who can get us into these top 7 finishes we need European football. I'd love to be in the champions league again the atmosphere on those nights is something that I don't want to become a distant memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Earle Posted 20 August 2017 Share Posted 20 August 2017 Hamer Amartey Maguire Huth Chilwell Abrighton James King Gray Musa Slimani Subs:- Jakupovic Simpson Benalouane Fuchs Drinkwater/Iborra (if fit) or Ndidi Mahrez Ulloa Huth & James to get 60 mins or so, but priority is to WIN!

Jimmy Posted 20 August 2017 Share Posted 20 August 2017 Shakey has said after both games Hamer is ahead of Jakupovic "on merit" which begs the question why we wasted the fee and wages signing him when we could just have Iversen be the no3 keeper so Hamer will play Tuesday what I'd like to see Kasper Simpson Amartey Maguire Chilwell Albrighton King NDidi Gray Shinji Slimani what I think we will see Hamer Amartey Benny Huth Chilwell Gray King DD/Mendy Musa Ulloa Slimani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenTheFox Posted 20 August 2017 Share Posted 20 August 2017 Looking forward to it! A mixed side for me. I really want to go through whilst still giving some squad players some game time, therefore I've gone with this: Jakupovic Simpson Benny Maguire Chilwell Albrighton James King Gray Okazaki Slimani Subs: Schmeichel, Fuchs, Amartey, Ndidi, Vardy, Musa, Ulloa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facecloth Posted 21 August 2017 Share Posted 21 August 2017 A lot of people putting Albrighton in the team. As one of the best performers and hardest workers i'd like him to get a rest, not play an extra game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 21 August 2017 Share Posted 21 August 2017 We have united away four days later followed by the int break. i guess tomorrow's line up will reveal a lot about our ambition in the league this season. Changes above 8 or 9 may reveal shakey thinks we can make top six. Judging by his line up at palace prior to the Madrid game, I suspect we will see 5 or 6. it's a bit complicated by the possible return of drinky for sat which allows for James to be selected. Should be a tough physical encounter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facecloth Posted 21 August 2017 Share Posted 21 August 2017 Just now, Bert said: A rest? Two games into the season? come on. I just don't see the point risking an important player and adding extra game time even at this point. Protect him and give others game time.
