I don’t understand why anyone can have complaints with this lineup, I hate Morgan starting but tonight it’s the logical choice. The new lads haven’t been here long at all, we’ll see our best 11 after a couple of games. When they’re ready.

As good as you can expect with the current situation. Will be very interesting if the side defends in a good shape. Defo goals in this side if Man Utd off colour. 

[Lesterlad]

Do some of our fans actually understand anything about our squad?

 

Evans as been injured just come back. The 2 centre half’s only joined yesterday and one cant play until his permit comes through. 

 

I would imagine Amartey at right back when we are attacking and central defence when we are defending with Ricardo slotting in at right back. 

 

Ndidi and Silva sitting in front of the back 3 or 5 at times. 

 

The bench has a lot of quality about it and vardy will be on after an hour or so. 

 

Why are people moaning???

Morgan, Amartey, and Pereira at right wing. Safe to say we didn't spend the Mahrez money strengthening the starting team. 

Let’s face it, even if Mahrez was there instead on RW he’d not do much... I think it’s a tactical decision by the manager to put a player who is good defensively and going forward... plus armartey is good in the air

[kingfox]

I'm quite happy with that, not perfect but it's decent. No way was he leaving Maguire out, Silva and Iheanacho have looked good in Pre Season time for them to step up, Amartey will prove he's World Class by marking Sanchez out the game.

 

Think we'll lose but hopefully we put in a positive performance.

[Webbo]

I'm a little bit excited.

[Unabomber]

Some of our fans are unreal the levels of pessimism. Embarrassing guys, do you get off on complaining about things? Very odd. All the best to the team picked tonight and I fully back them.

2 new lads joined yesterday, Evans is returning from an injury. Can see why Morgan is playing today, when he continues to start weekly I’ll start asking questions but right now I can see why his hands may have been forced.

You throw new defenders on the pitch vs United before they've even had  training sessions and you're asking for 5-0 or worse.  They're still lethal up top.  Nice to see though that Claude also passed on the Wes/Benny combo...as long as McGuire is fit of course.

I'm a LOT of bit excited. 8pm can not come quick enough

Has anyone notified Sky Sports that there's actually 2 teams involved in tonight's game?

[coolhandfox]

Why would we want to listen to these random's, united yawn in! 

[Zippy]

Sensible line up considering new signings not up to speed. Looks potentially to be fluid attacking with a back 3/4 and defensively a back 5 if Perriera drops in. Prefer to have Evans in for Wes but pragmatic. Man Utd bench far stronger so I hope we go for it from the start.

was about to say the same, 20 minutes in and we've been mentioned once 

[Ted Maul]

I know we've probably got no choice, but we're already 1-0 down with Wes in the side.

[foxes_rule1978]

Man U this Man U that zzzzzzzzzzz

Would love us just to win for that reason, coverage is poor!

Was about to say the same. All started when Gary Neville was talking about all the Man U players coming back on a high post-world cup with no recognition of Leicester's, and it's carried on from there.
