SuperMike Posted 11 December 2017 Share Posted 11 December 2017 We've conceded goals to two of the worst players in the Premier League (Kouyaté and Joselu) in recent matches. Let's just hope Shane Long isn't playing for The Saints!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well rotation will be needed eventually, but 3/4 days is normally just about enough rest, so I wouldn't expect mass changes for this game. Probably will see changes for Palace, depending on how they perform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than Gray, they are all on at least 100k a week and I think he’s just signed a new contract hasn’t he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxxed Posted 12 December 2017 Share Posted 12 December 2017 Providing we play Gray, Mahrez and Vardy we'll have plenty of scoring opportunities. But our defence has let in soft goals: and Long and Austin will be the most dangerous attack we've faced in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancyclaret Posted 12 December 2017 Share Posted 12 December 2017 (edited) If Burnley can win 1-0 at Southampton, I am sure the Foxes should win also. Just got to keep a close watch on Claret-reject Charlie Austin. Edited 12 December 2017 by lancyclaret 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosbehFox Posted 12 December 2017 Share Posted 12 December 2017 Sooner or later we going to begin rotating and have to change it up a bit. So it's going to be one of these two fixtures where we do that - interested to see which one Claude prioritises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously just a few top earners and not the whole squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenTheFox Posted 12 December 2017 Share Posted 12 December 2017 This will be a very tough game. I think come the end of the season both sides will be in the top half. Would be happy with a draw from this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARTY_FOX Posted 12 December 2017 Share Posted 12 December 2017 Christ they're sensitive about van dijk aren't they... I can't see Vardy injuring anyone on purpose. Especially not slyly. He isn't exactly the subtle type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
