twister Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 The thing I like whatever the result It sends a message to the squard that Rodgers was not happy with thursday night , it was awful lets be honest. if they play badly the back ups as well he knows now weather they have a future Look worst that happens is the team is four clear of fourth, its a chance worth taking.
Harry96 Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 This will be interesting to say the least. West Ham look stronger than usual on paper.

This is what we wanted isn't it? Wilf and Caglar deserve a rest they have stopped us being massacred. I think rest 1 or 2 players at a time and keep the rest of the key squad playing with slight rotation throughout the matches. If he pulls it off fair play to him but I can see west ham absolutly destroying us today. A great opportunity to gain 3 points after 2 defeats.

Sunbury Fox Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 I'm sorry but this is monumentally bad squad management. Surely we should have played Hamza and Albrighton v Liverpool and saved Youri and Maddison for this game to give us some creativity? I'd have preferred Mendy and Choudhury v Liverpool in a bus parking set up. We might have only lost 2-0 rather than 4-0.
Blue Ed Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 Why not. we are clearly a team building for the future and we'll need depth in all positions if we are to compete regularly. Take this chance lads and have a right go!
mucfox Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 Why are many FT members so negative??? I trust Brendan Rodgers. The squad will fight and will win. All Foxes fans should be a little more relaxed and should keep their fingers crossed for the team. We are 2nd after Boxing Day - is that nothing? Be proud of the club, the coach and all players...
foxinsox Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 Hopefully all hungry to prove something. I am strangely optimistic. There really is no need for weekend games between Boxing Day and New Year. Is it any wonder that nearly every team plays the reserves in the FA Cup 4th round?
Larry_LCFC Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 If we somehow win, he will get praise. If we lose, he will be absolutely slated for doing something so drastic. On paper, this could be a disaster. Not bad players, but it would have fifa chemistry of about 10.
Toddybad Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 I am a little worried having seen our line up.

Gerard Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 FWIW I fully support BR's decision here. It gives the first XI a six day break between matches and that may help us in the long run with a very busy January coming up. No excuses against Newcastle and stops us playing catch up with fatigue and injuries for a month afterwards. Lets just cheers the lads on and see where it takes us.
Aus Fox Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 The state of this thread again, I don’t know why I’m surprised, but before a ball has been kicked some of the comments are embarrassing! Three points thrown away, I don’t know why we bother playing, he’s lost the plot. FFS it’s two games in 45 hours! We have some good back up in, we may well lose, but the comments in here before kick off are yet again who can make the most outrageous comments. Let’s get behind the lads who are out there and see what happens hey! Come on you blues
RowlattsFox Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 Level with an hour gone and bring on Maddison and Ricardo to win the game Turns out Ricardo isn't on the bench.
UniFox21 Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 Every single one of those player has a point to prove and to try and force their way into the team and into BR's plans
theessexfox Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 Praet is the weirdest one for me - resting the fullbacks makes moderate sense, Hamza can do Ndidi’s job, the wingers are relatively interchangeable and Vardy unavailable... if it were Kasper Justin Morgan Evans Fuchs Praet Hamza Maddison Perez Nacho Albrighton It would’ve seemed a lot better and still have been 7 changes
SixtiesFox Posted 28 December 2019 Posted 28 December 2019 Squad rotation yes, but capitulation through team decimation, no. Granted it exposes our lack of squad depth but top four teams need to rotate with a little more nous than this surely. Is this selection revealing a glimpse of Rodger's arrogance?
