surrifox Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 Pretty sure first time that Simmo has been available but not started

Popular Post kingfox Posted 10 February 2018 Popular Post Posted 10 February 2018 This sudden James hate is fvcking stupid. MOTM worthy performance at Chelsea, decent shift against Watford, one dodgy performance against Everton and suddenly he's the new scapegoat. Idiots. 16 1
Corky Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 Get the game done, put up a fight and move on. Don't anticipate anything but a defeat but after today that is Man United and City, Liverpool and Chelsea all done for the season and focus on other games.
Vacamion Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 Brave change of formation. It looks defensive. With Mahrez and Gray on the bench we have flair players in reserve. COYB
Gerard Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 Looks like we're going to suffocate space in the middle. I'm still not sure about Diabate but I suppose he does bring a bit of an X factor.

SecretPro Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 Get James out of the starting line up FFS. Slow, Passes backwards, does literally nothing else. Iborra is clearly at least 5 times the player of James.
FoxInTheBirstallBox Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 So anyone who is at the ground already, are we giving mahrez shit or what? I'm within throwing distance of the corner flag
brookfox Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 Mahrez with a 90th min winner off the bench, kisses the badge and does a bow in the centre circle. Put your mortgage on it!

Is there really need for name calling because some of us have a different opinion on a player. Why is it hating one player, because somebody rates another more.
Foxxed Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 It's made it interesting. I'm looking forward to see how we operate.

Diabate looks very raw to me but the fact that Puel rates him ahead of Gray or Iheanacho to do that role is very reassuring if not for today but even long term. 1
foxes21 Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 (edited) Think Albrighton is key here. He hasn't played RWB for a long time and could be targeted as a weak link, however he rarely lets us down in big games. Lets fuching win this lads. Edited 10 February 2018 by foxes21
winteriscoming Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 Not convinced with fuchs if he's playing as the third centre back...hope I'm wrong.

If he was putting in shit performances week in week out then those certain people would have a point. Whats with the Iborra love anyway, his passing has been atrocious recently.

Shinji is out injured, and Mahrez has just come back from being a world class twat. We need someone to do a lot of running and I guess Diabate with his "willing to do anything" attitude is worth a shout. Nacho played well last week, but in a game where you don't expect to see much of the ball I see the justification in the selection. Diabate from what I have seen is quite an unselfish player, pretty quick and very eager to impress. Could be a genius move or madness! The truth is this experiment could turn out to be a disaster, but as this is the third time we are playing them, I like that we are trying something a bit different against them. Match their midfield 3, the deadliest counter attacking striker in the country up top and a wildcard on the bench.
UPinCarolina Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 We’ve battled the last two matches against this lot; I see no reason why we won’t have learned something from those performances. I also see no reason why Pep would feel that he needs to change anything, which gives us a chance.

Vacamion Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 Don't know if anyone already has this, but I'm baggsying the word "Shinjury" to describe Okazaki's absence. 2
Buzzell Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 (edited) I’m actually glad to see Puel completely change the system. Hope it works. Edited 10 February 2018 by buzzer_b
Dr The Singh Posted 10 February 2018 Posted 10 February 2018 No soft goals from corners please or fook ups. If we do lose let's make them work darn hard for a goal 1
