weller54 Posted 11 January 2020 Share Posted 11 January 2020 Time for Praet to make this position his own... Glad Tielemans has been benched, he's been so very poor for too long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno I think he's getting it about as well as you can expect atm. He was always going to be Vardy's back up, at least he's getting well utilised now. Unless he's good out wide, which we've seen no evidence of, he doesn't fit in our best formation which is this 433. I agree it's a shame we can't fit him in. The diamond with him up front with Vardy and Perez behind then Madders in midfield wouldn't be utterly dreadful but we've only really had one particularly good game in that shape.

sdb Posted 11 January 2020 Share Posted 11 January 2020 Tielemans getting his 4th rest of the last month. Hopefully our CBs win their battles and our midfield can overrun theirs. Xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OadbyBlue Posted 11 January 2020 Share Posted 11 January 2020 Basically the same as the 9-0 with hamza for ndidi and praet for the tired tielemans, makes sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel he has been playing pretty well lately (West Ham, Newcastle) and even against Villa he was one of our better players until he was subbed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think so, and same applies to Iheanacho. Neither are good enough to warrant that, plus Vardy is best as the lone striker. We have got where we are since the back end of last season with 4141 mostly, just need a better wide player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Prussian Posted 11 January 2020 Share Posted 11 January 2020 Nobody mentioned our subs yet? Ward, Benkovic, Justin, Gray, Tielemans, Albrighton, Iheanacho 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 11 January 2020 Share Posted 11 January 2020 Due to some heavy rotation and changes to systems etc it's made it a bit difficult to pick the most effective team on merit in our best system which is 4-1-4-1. Iheanacho has been bloody brilliant and I want him in there but not if we we have to play a weaker system, likewise I'd like Perez in the 10 role but at the expense of who and in what formation? This is the system that got us playing some of the best football in the country from September to the start of December and now the hectic schedule is easing off slightly we need to stabilise things. When you chop and change formations then indecision on what to do when things aren't going to plan can happen. We have back up plans now as a last resort but this is our most potent. Praet has a huge opportunity to make Rodgers find it hard to leave him out, Tielemans has been crap now since late November and I don't think Brendan is afraid to drop him for more than the odd token game, if Dennis delivers then he'll now play for a while. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
