Nicely balanced and Albrighton to give Chilwell a bit of support.
dobbylcfc Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 Why is it a 5:30 kick off if we ain’t on the box anyone got any ideas?

I like Chilwell, but it’s not unfair to say he’s been woeful last couple games. England’s first choice left back (he’s earned that position rightly so) should be able to at least put up a 6 or 7/10 performance in both games, not look completely out of depth. Sorry but even the best LB in the world would struggle in some part against the likes of Mahrez/KDB/Silva and anyone else interchangeable in the right for City and then in their next game against Alexander-Arnold and Salah. Given that Chilwell isn't the world's best LB and perhaps not very close to it right now anyway, he was set up for failure by being exposed to them so much by himself. When you're having to manage those kinds of players in your own right, as well as perhaps try and get up to join attacks, then sticking to the basics may slip, just a little!

It’s not meant to be anything other than a side which can play this game (& most of them the Wigan game too) while allowing our stronger players to be fresh for Newcastle and the League Cup semifinal home leg. It’s not a ‘shit team’ in any event, is it?

It’s not a ‘shit team’ in any event, is it? we would get smashed if we played that team. there is no need to drop Kasper for a league game and even pick Jakupovic on the bench ahead of him? Vardy isnt going to be dropped from the match day squad entirely, is he? Mendy nor Amartey are not going to make their first starts of the season when they havent even been in cup squads, are they? That is a shit team. i get what you are saying about rotation but i highly doubt we would play a team that looked like that ever. Vardy at least will want to play every single game he can. I doubt we would even see a team like this against Wigan. its more likely to be Ward JJ Evans Morgan Fuchs Choudrey Barnes Praet Gray Perez Iheanacho For Wigan, with vardy, soyonchu maddison kasper and some u23 on the bench, resting the rest of the first team. For west Ham i would play the steongest possible team, assessed on tiredness etc. but we can not drop any more points and lose 3 in a row, the players should be fired up and want to show what they can do after 3 dismal performances.

Desabafar Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 Time for some rotation Kasper Justin Evans Soyuncu Fuchs Praet Hamza Maddison Gray Vardy Albrighton
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 Kasper Justin Evans Soyuncu Chillwell Ndidi Ricardo Tielemans Praet Albrighton Vardy
reynard Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 Hard to say it but Maddison needs either time on the bench or a complete rest. Fuchs surely in for Chilwell and Morgan for one of the centre backs. Who knows who else really. Hamza has to start, we really need an injection of energy into the team. So short of decent quality options out wide though. Don't think we are in a position to rest both Tielemans and Maddison. Fitness guys will have their work cut out deciding who is fit enough to play though we didn't expend that much energy against Liverpool as we didn't appear to try that much.
holyfox Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 This match is about getting back to basics. Hopefully the fringe players will come in fitter and hungry to prove a point. Have said it all season, we have to show that high press for from the off and continue to the end. Only then can we exert our quality on the opposition. Can’t afford to panic or get on their backs if it doesn’t start off the way we want, this is all part of the learning curve for this young squad. I still think we are probably a season ahead of where I expected us to be fighting for a top four. keep the faith, back the boys and back them even louder when the going gets tough!! COYB! #Foxesneverquit
lcfcdotell Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 Any chance of a youth player being on the bench if he rotates heavily? 1
AndyMaidenhead Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 Next 2 league games...plus 2 cup games are going to go a long way to determining the real camerarderie n genuine sincerity of this Group of players n backroom staff....esp as Transfer Window upon us...Backs against the Wall at the moment..Foxes gonna need dig helluva deep 1

COYB! #Foxesneverquit This. Don't get on their backs. No collective groaning when we don't hit it long trying to set off Vardy as though it's 2015. Support. Encourage. Back the team and believe in them and appreciate what an amazing time our club is having. Ask west ham fans if they would want our ownership and team over what they have at the minute.... 1
NewEnglandFox Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 (edited) Hopefully a win on a short turnaround can flush out all the shit currently being spewed about. When we lose the frustration always seems to boil over from just what happened on the pitch to whatever has grinds your gears. Edited 27 December 2019 by NewEnglandFox

oxtonfox Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 I think Rodgers has hinted about changes recounting a Prem game in 2011 with Swansea when they made changes against Villa who won 48 hours earlier and didn’t make any changes. Swansea won. So I figure he will or at least change the whole back 4 except Evans bringing in Justin, Morgan, Fuchs. We’ll need to be physically stronger against West Ham than we have been. I think he’ll bring in Hamza alongside Wilf to add some bite. Rest Madders, Youri and Barnes bring in Gray, Albrighton and Nacho. I don’t think he dare go without Vardy but he does need a rest, so maybe Perez if he dares. A point may not be a bad result given the slump we are in.
Lesta2014 Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 So there referee we have tomorrow is David Coote who is from Nottingham! Wonder when he gives a penno against us
LCCFox96 Posted 27 December 2019 Posted 27 December 2019 What is the pub scene like? Never done West Ham away before. Any good pubs near the ground for away fans or do people usually drink further out pre-match?
