Hales Posted 3 July 2020 Share Posted 3 July 2020 Chilly needs help on the left and that clearly doesn't come from Barnes! If Brendan wants him attacking then maybe he needs to just let him do that and bring in Fuchs to worry about defending? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a striker , let him play there , he could still do double figures this season. Played 1 scored 1 as a striker this season against Wigan, wouldn't harm to try him there again but I'm sure we'll go for the easy option and just drop the only player who's scored goals for us in 2020.

Think he could be dangerous if he isn’t caught in two minds and just goes for it down that flank. Agreed, he has the pace and stamina. He can't do it all down that left hand side. With Ricardo out they are relying on Ben to get forward but that risks us getting caught it defence. He needs some help down that side definitely.

Why risk exacerbating his injury, which could leave him out for months, in a game where, we were struggling to get a foothold. can only assume they didn’t realise how bad it is .... he shouldn’t have even been on the bench ! Perhaps that shows how desperate rodgers sees our situation despite the public persona ..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine away games are an absolute pig at the moment as you are encouraged to travel the same day. As a reason for e.g. not starting Iheanacho, this seems somewhat confected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've not won in 4 winnable games, 3 league games against crap sides, you went 2-0 down after 15 against Everton, and today every single player appears to be smiling as though we've just won the league. Is it just me or do this group of players just not get it? Are these faces serious enough for you? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanSP Posted 3 July 2020 Share Posted 3 July 2020 If Maddison is definitely out I'd go with this... Kasper Evans - Soyuncu - Bennett Justin Chilwell Ndidi Praet - Tielemans Perez - Kelechi Decided against natural wingers even if it does give us some width because pummelling them with crosses is something they just practice defending against all day every day in training. Having the extra centre-back will perhaps give us some protection if they catch us on the break? Not sure about starting Vardy. Not only is he off form but he won't get much space in behind their defence as I can just see them happy to sit back, contain and break, as well as probably not getting many touches in/around the box, being isolated and just generally looking like he'll have a poor game. Don't mind if Barnes or Perez start. Regardless of formation or personnel, we have to start quick and gain that control and dominance from the beginning like in the first half of the season. There's a time for the laboured approach and it's not at the start of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not looking forward to this and I think they’ll do us over again. Wouldn’t be surprised if Benteke gets his annual goal tomorrow and ... Brendan says after “I thought there was improvement in the second half, much better press, we’re a young side, there a good side, well organised, we should have had a penalty, there are a few things we need to worrrrk on” usual excruciating effin claptrap.

Hollyfox Posted 3 July 2020 Share Posted 3 July 2020 We've just to look back at our hopeless position before we played West Ham in the spring of 2015. That win, however it was achieved, was the springboard to what followed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoboFox Posted 3 July 2020 Share Posted 3 July 2020 (edited) Don’t want to be a negative nelly, but I’m gonna be. Probably less enthused about this game than I have been for any game in years. I’m anxious about seeing same sh*t we have been seeing for the last 3 weeks, it’s just utterly depressing watching us piss away the fabulous opportunity we‘ve created for ourselves. So, so hope I’m proved wrong. Edited 3 July 2020 by RoboFox 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
