[KingKoala]

Just hope Marc is not behind Vardy

[somebum]

Slim not in squad

[ozleicester]

Hmm.. by the way.. when did Shinji.. become "Sinji"?

[AKCJ]

Harsh on Shinji but he did look completely shagged by about 50 minutes on Tuesday.

[YesNdidi]

Slim not even on the bench?

[Charl91]

Just Okazaki for Gray then.

 

Interesting that Fuchs is on the bench.

[StriderHiryu]

Interesting! I think we are seeing a pattern now. In games where we think the opponent will sit back we play Mahrez and Gray. When we are going to be under the kosh it’s Shinji time. I think it makes sense!

 

COYB!

[Beechey]

Mahrez as a #10 to drag their defence around maybe?

[sylofox]

who is in the squad?

[Domsdad]

No Slim on the bench?

Burnley will sit back. This is a gane for Albrighton, Gray and Mahrez. Shinji will be back against Man Utd.

Or on the right

[kingfox]

Booooooooooo

 

We will fail to break them down until 90 minutes when Ulloa comes on and scores the winner.

[lgfualol]

Ulloa yuck

Puel out! 

[Lcfcrory]

Really like the team tbh if we're on our game should tear through them going forwards (not to tempt fate or anything)

[baldeagle]

I’ve noticed Puel tends to mix the bench up each game I don’t know if it’s tactical or to keep players happy but the last bench included Amartey and Slim this time Ulloa and Nacho 

[ARTY_FOX]

Good God I hope Gray and mahrez pass to each other.
