Yes, he skipped the Spurs cup game which gave him about 10 days. I had the same surgery from the same surgeon. He does a lot of sportsman (Kasper as well at one point).

 

 

Best claim to fame EVER.

The team largely picks itself.

 

Puel wants Ndidi and Mendy in the middle.

 

He wants attacking full backs in Chilwell and Richardo.

 

Vardy and Maddision are the attacking threat.

 

Richardo plays best with Albrighton. And Gray and Chilwell link up well.

 

The only question is if Maguire gets back in after Evans and Morgan have played well recently.

 

That said, everytime I try to predict his formation he pulls a wildcard.

 

That is most likely, but I really want to see Iborra instead of Ndidi and see what happens.

 

I would stick with Evans and Morgan, but please don’t drop Evans who deserve to have a run in the side.

it might be something different in his groin. Vardy might just be weak in that area

No Benny in our prem squad so it's either a utility player or a young lad playing with Soyuncu. 

According to @themightyfin Evans is a doubt, Wes should play and Pascanu will travel...

Benkovic has to say he's having a marvelous time in haggisland. Tempt him back with an offer to play upfront with Iborra. Total football!

Of course he is, the competition is such a joke there's absolutely zero pressure.

Did you not see the clip of that outrageous Ward goal in training?

I did not.

 

In that case, Ward and Schmeichel in a front 2. Stick Diabaté between the sticks, because why not. Jakupovic can watch on from the bench.

Benkovic is hardly going to come out and say he’d rather be playing for Leicester and he thinks Celtic are a poverty club playing in a shit league. But we all know that to be true.

I'd be happy with that if it has to be 4231!

 

Although I would prefer to see another player in for Ndidi at the moment either Silva or Iborra not out of malice just to focus the bloke on his passing and decision making...

Yeah I hear you, personally I would keep playing him he's only young and is only going to get better with games. I am sure as he's been around for a while we tend to forget how young he still is. 

Wes should play but Evans is the main doubt and I've picked the team assuming Vardy is unavailable but that's in his hands  to decide. Word is he needs an operation to sort it out. 

Elder Muskwe Uche Pascanu and Hamza will be hoping for a place on the bench but it looks like we still have enough senior men to fill those spots, Just!

I'd rather have Pascanu on the bench than Fuchs or Simpson in case Wes hobbles off. 

 

Nacho better be ready to do 90 minutes as Okazaki shouldnt be allowed to be a lone striker.

I went on "whoscored" to get passing stats for our 4 central midfielders as I think folk are way too harsh on Ndidi but then realised his accuracy is only 77% (Mendy and Iborra are at around 90% and Silva, albeit in a very small sample size, is on about 83%) which is down on last year I believe.  He has everything to be one of the best players in his position in the league and I am inclined to stick with him as he is young and his tackling/interception stats are so impressive they probably outweigh the passing.  However even I (a perennial optimistic "let's be nice to everyone poster") has to admit he does need to improve in that area.  I wonder whether it is purely a technique issue (he knows what and where he wants to pass but he cannot quite do it) or if it is more of a mental thing (rushes slightly, panics, etc)?  As I said, I would say leave him where he is and let him blossom but it would be nice to know if there was a way for him to up his passing accuracy as if he could get up to towards the 90% mark we would be a much more formidable unit.  X

I would say, also the optimist, that its a matter of composure. Occasionally you see him float a good ball across the pitch and we've seen him shoot well.

I think the raw tools are there its just they need to flourish a bit

 

On the other hand he might just be s*** at passing forever
