Kinowe Soorie Posted 20 December 2018 Share Posted 20 December 2018 We'll play ok until the 43rd minute, they'll score. Much of the same in the second half, 3-0. Puel out! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCCFox96 Posted 20 December 2018 Share Posted 20 December 2018 I thought we'd go three in midfield and, even with Ndidi out, we could do worse than playing Hamza but I don't think Puel will play him away at Chelsea. Fuchs has been decent but I expect Chilwell to go back in should he be fit enough. I don't think getting anything out of this is impossible but we'll need the entire at their best and to play with the fight they showed in the second half on Tuesday from the first whistle for the full 90.

It's been more then evident all season that it doesn't work. He's a lone striker in the club let alone in the XI. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxxed Posted 21 December 2018 Share Posted 21 December 2018 We kept Hazard quiet with Ndidi last season and now we have to deal with Hazard, Jorginho and an attacking Kante and this time without Ndidi. Not too optimistic. I look forward to some more essays in the puel out thread when he plays simpson or doesn't start maddison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey123 Posted 21 December 2018 Share Posted 21 December 2018 Schmeichel ricardo morgan Maguire chilwell gray mendy hamza albrighton Shinji Vardy Nulify them for the first half, okazaki chasing them down like a wild haeyna disrupting their flow maybe get one decent chance for Vardy, Maddison on at 60 to give us some spark once we’ve finally realised we need to start playing.

Ted Maul Posted 21 December 2018 Share Posted 21 December 2018 Schmeichel Ricardo Maguire Evans Chilwell Iborra Choudhury Mendy Maddison Gray Vardy Slightly odd midfield, but I like Iborra dropping deep to be the link between defence & midfield when we've got the ball & I feel like we always leave too much space there when we don't have the ball usually, so he should plug that gap. It should also enable the other 2 to press a bit higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmeichel Ricardo Morgan Maguire Chilwell Mendy Iborra Albrighton Maddison Gray Vardy Like the look of that with the exception of Iborra. Against a pacy midfield like Man City it showed up his inability to track runners and play to the pace of the game often just dangling a leg out embarrassingly. Against Hazard and Kante I'd fear more of the same and think even Choudhury would give more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree and personally would give Hamza a go albeit there isn't much either of them could do against Hazard or Kante if they're up for it. Just can't see Puel doing it and think he'll go with the experienced head. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beechey Posted 21 December 2018 Share Posted 21 December 2018 Good news is that Everton and Wolves will probably lose, with one of Watford and West Ham winning only (unless a draw), so even if we lose this is probably won't cut us off from the Europa spot too badly.
