Dames Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 Will be the same team that started vs Liverpool and it will end in a draw with Shakey very pleased with a 'result'. Games like this whilst people are saying aren't must win but they are - after the start we've had we need to start picking up wins and fast otherwise trouble beckons.
Ric Flair Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 4 hours ago, MattP said: I wish people would stop exaggerating using terms like "must win" games. A must win is the last day of the season when you are a point off relegation, not half a dozen games into the season in October. It all depends how strong your pain threshold is. This is agony right now for some and they need it to end, others who are more faithful in our club and forever positive probably realise that we aren't in as much bother as some (me) would make out. It's not so much I think we're in freefall like we were in January and February under Ranieri, I think Shakespeare ought to keep us up comfortably but that isn't good enough by a long stretch and it's a must win game for me as he needs to show me that he's better than ordinary and win games like this. Our away record under him is poor, he needs to start improving a lot of things in results, performances and tactics.
suffolk fox Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 Agree it will be the same team, same midfield and same tactics. We are stuck rigidly in a 442. This is a must win game for various reasons. Its a pity we cant swap managers before kick off I rate Eddie Howe.

There's no identity to his methods. He's copying Pearson and Ranieri, which you could argue served us well so why not but given how we badly fell under both managers before a revival from Pearson in 14/15 and from Shakespeare as caretaker you could clearly see we need to try ways of playing to improve. It just smacks of inexperience and I don't believe in this league with what's at stake that you should be given this gig to cut your teeth. The saddest part of it all is, I think we'll make the change soon and that will be the end of his time with our club but there's little other option. I expect better than what he's giving us.

Happy Fox Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 Top: Hey dad, we lost to Bournemouth on Saturday. Vichai: Yeah so what? i haven't checked the league table yet, our squad is Top 8 premier league rest assured. Top: Not good enough for Leicester, we are in the relegation zone. Vichai: Are u serious! Rudkin: How can I help? Vichai: Sack Shakespeare. Rudkin: Breathes a sigh of relief. (Talks to himself thank f**k Silva hasn't gone through yet) Rudkin: Done deal Vichai.

Ricey Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 Kasper Simpson Morgan Maguire Chilwell Iborra KIng Ndidi Gray Albrighton Vardy Our usual style rarely works against Bournemouth. Time for something different that aims to solve the central midfield issue. Iborra will adapt much better within a more familiar midfield three. He can also move from being DM to AM depending on how the match is going. Gray deserves a chance after making things happen as a sub on Saturday.

If we draw at Bournemouth we aren't packing up for the season and accepting we are down as we didn't win. The exaggeration society indulges in now is terrible.
steveherbe Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 Bugger the team, performance, result. What I want to know is, where the hell are we drinking pre-match? Only part of last saturday I enjoyed.
Gin-fox Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 Its gonna be 442 with mahrez starting coz shakey don't have the guts to change. And then it will end in 3-0 to us courtesy of a vardy hat trick?

I agree with everything you've said, but at the time I recon that's what most people wanted (including the owners) - i.e. To go back to where we were. It did the trick at the time - but you're right, it's not enough now...

foxy boxing Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 we need a win and a performance would be great but Shakey has got to do something!. we have the players and he needs to get the best out of them!
filbertway Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 Is McGuire an inside joke I'm missing out on?

That may require different formations. ... it certsinly requires getting bew players up to speed. . And i think it needs a much more positive approach to our tactics to get something out of games.
ZeGuy Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 Very interesting game to come and crucial for Shakey. Let's see how he's going to shape up the team. Kasper Simpson Morgan Maguire Fuchs Iborra Ndidi Gray Okazaki Albrighton Vardy

lgfualol Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 All Bournemouth have to do is sit back and counter. Our passing is so bad they'll get loads of joy if they put King up against our slow defenders. They just have to keep Mahrez quiet and not give Vardy any space, and job done.
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 A 6/10 performance from Bournemouth wins it for them comfortably, how depressing is that.

Guest Col city fan Posted 25 September 2017 Posted 25 September 2017 I'm sick of this setting us up defensively to not concede garbage. We've conceded the second most goals in the division. Let's have a bloody go and beat them with confident, attacking football.
