Rest Tieleman, he looked below par to me, knackered. Plenty of subs who need minutes. Whats the news on Madders? Save him for Liverpool imo bring in one of the u23s for Luton and Newcastle and see if they can step up.

U23 ?  we have a deeper squad than that (also taking into account that we don't have anyone in the dev squad that's pushing for first team action in that role)

True, very true, but squad players all look a bit defensive to me.

Open to suggestions for any development players who we can begin to develop to fill Madders role?

Also thinking ahead to next season when big boys with big cheques and big wages come knocking for Madders. Soyuncu approach (of planning succession) seems to have worked out, but we seem lacking in attacking central midfielders. Convert Grey to ACM? :ph34r:

Leshabela might sneak a bench spot

Would love that, completely forgot about him but he was very solid in pre season.

 

This would be a good opportunity for him, assuming Maddison is injured & Praet likely to start alongside Youri. Brendan does like to have a creative CM option on the bench so who knows. 

 

Also what about Reghba? Wasn’t in the u23s squad, but probably just injured?

Haven't heard anything regarding that but noticed he wasn't in the squad. Hopefully just a minor knock

These have some bite to 'em, so we'll need some graft rather than just relying on class. Definitely an Albrighton game on that basis, Praet looks the business playing high intensity and I hope and pray that Perez gets stuck in and does the Okazaki job he was signed to do.

 

We'd be foolish not to play a few first teamers, but agree that some of our fringe players need a run out. Play Morgan for this, but I don't even see Fuchs in for Chilwell as a fringe move, because he did of course start the season for us, and did very well at that. 

 

Otherwise, with the exception of bringing in Nacho for Vardy, not really fringe players rather than our bench options in a starting role please. Wouldn't be against having an academy lad like Leshabela getting a run out from the bench, but we have enough first 18 players itching for game time to put out a strong squad for this one without going as far as to call it "second string".

 

Ward

 

Justin     Morgan     Soyuncu     Fuchs

 

Choudhury

 

Albrighton              Praet                      Gray

 

Perez

 

Iheanacho

More or less what I was thinking - chance for some fringe players to get some game time and stake a claim.  Would like to see Benkovic get some minutes, would it be too much of a gamble putting him in from the start alongside Wes?

 

This formation also allows us to get a feel for Perez playing in the Maddison role.  Lets face it, the chances of Madders going all season without injury/suspension would be a big ask.

I don't think we will see wholesale changes, potentially one or two, it seems Rodgers want's to go far in these competitions.
