brucey Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 These lot are on good form and out for revenge. Could be a problematic one....
Guest Kopfkino Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 They'll have all the motivation in the world, are in good form, have a striker scoring goals, did a job on us this time last year, they've had the week off and we've been poor at home for a while so everything points at getting a few quid on at 5/1. But we should still be good enough, get back to basics with 4-1-4-1 with Hamza in for Ndidi and start quick.
Devonfox1884 Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 Genuinely tempted to drop Chilwell for a game. Schmeichel Ricardo Soyuncu Evans Fuchs Hamza Youri Madders Gray Vardy (Kelechi if not fit for another 90) Barnes Subs: Ward, JJ, Chilwell, Praet, Ayoze, Albrighton, Kelechi 2-1 win. (Vardy and Madders)
lcfcdotell Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 Actually quite scared about this. We’ve been pretty poor at home recently and they’re going to be full of motivation plus Ings is sh*t hot right now. Back to 4141 please
Guest Manini Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 Their away form Is, actually, very decent. They’ve taken 14 points on the road this season and if they’d only played away games they’d be 6th. No mugs.
twister Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 I would make changes for this lot its worked in previous weeks so why not again. If they play like they did at Villa Park a few weeks back they are a serious danger, so two tought tackling players in the middle might be in order Kasper Ricardo Evans Soyuncu Chilwell Albrighton Hamza Youri Gray Barnes Kelechi Keeping Chilwell in only because Fuchs cant play two games in three or four days against a hard pressing team, concerned how weary Maddison looked at the end there so giving him a rest , see if Barnes can find some form against a team he played well against earlier in the season. Vardy and his wife have had their baby arrive and I might be willing to give him another rest to have him sharper later in the season, a big risk but might pay off with a full weeks training next week. One or two players look like they have given a huge amount first half of the season so legs will be have to be managed in coming weeks.
st albans fox Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 just as tonight showed you don’t hammer a team twice in succession, so Saturday will prove a v difficult game .......anything possible ....

urban.spaceman Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 Think we'll struggle sadly. 8-0 this time.

Ric Flair Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 One of the most frustrating home games in recent years was against these last season. I just hope we can find a home performance and win from somewhere as although we are still in good nick, the danger signs of our home form has been flagging for over a month now.
Adster Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 Better finishing today and no one would be saying we'd struggle at all against Southampton.
LestaAl Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 Need to sort out the correct tactics for this one after our performance against Villa .
coolhandfox Posted 9 January 2020 Posted 9 January 2020 Think they are due a lose to be honest 3-1 City
Leicester_Loyal Posted 9 January 2020 Posted 9 January 2020 No reason why we can't beat these. I want Iheanacho starting but not sure how he can fit in, diamond formation? But that could leave us exposed.
StanSP Posted 9 January 2020 Posted 9 January 2020 This will be difficult but I think we'll come out on top. Ings is in good form so will have to be watched carefully. Think we should go back to 4 3 3 with Choudhury playing behind Maddison and Tielemans. Perhaps Barnes, Vardy and Pèrez as the front 3.
foxfanazer Posted 9 January 2020 Posted 9 January 2020 Just had the weirdest dream that we were 2nd in the league and in the semi final of the cup. Came on here though and soon realised all of our players are shit and we're in fact in a relegation dogfight
Shane Posted 9 January 2020 Posted 9 January 2020 Southampton are on a good run of form, this game will be difficult. However i'd still like to see us drop some of the underperforming first team players. We have squad players that are in good form so why not use them... Schmeichel Evans, Soyuncu, Fuchs Ricardo, Mendy, Choudhury, Justin Barnes Vardy, Iheanacho Tempting to switch back to 4-1-4-1 but imo we need to get Kelechi in the starting line up, he's in great form right now. Gray & Perez probably unlucky to miss out, but Barnes directness from a central position could be interesting. Ricardo and Justin could swap flanks mid game to switch things up. Mendy/Choudhury central partnership on paper doesn't sound very ambitious.. But Mendy never lets us down and lets be honest Tielemans/Maddison aren't really doing much.
glebe_sydneyfox Posted 9 January 2020 Posted 9 January 2020 Have to play Hamza with Wilf out. We will win and I've got a feeling shut out Ings. 2-0
Dan Posted 9 January 2020 Posted 9 January 2020 I think you know Leicester have touched you when you can beat a side 0-9 away from home and still have no confidence in the home game I think we've been leggy at home for a while and they're actually not bad at all on the road. Another frustrating 1-1 I fear.
TheLittleBigMan Posted 9 January 2020 Posted 9 January 2020 I've heard Ings is getting his ears pinned back. He'll be a lot quicker without the drag. Still think we'll win though, they are dog sh*t. Up the foxes.
