Bournemouth (A)..pre match thread.

[Foxes96]

Need a result here. 

 

Id go: 

 

                      Vardy

                   Iheanacho 

Barnes Tielemans Ndidi Pérez 

 Fuchs Söyüncü Evans Justin

                  Schmeichel 

 

Not massively opposed to the 3-5-2, but in the end think the majority of the team picks itself with Maddison and Chilwell out only decision is between Bennet or Praet or Barnes/ Gray/ Albrighton. Depending on if we go 3 at the back, or 3 in midfield or 4-4-1-1/ 4-2-3-1 as above. So went for the attacking option as I think we’ll need to break them down and think we’ll be fine with more attaching wingers with more of a flat back four. 

 

Hoping we can get an early goal for a change, and then can look to catch them on the counter with Vards and Barnes pace like against Palace.

Good, always prefer it when we're being written off.

Well if Charlie Nicholas said it.....

[STEVIE B]

Imperative that we score 1st, otherwise they park 2 buses. Fairly confident of a win though. 

[murphy]

For those that are superstitious (I'm not - touch wood) we are currently on 666  Premier League points in the all time table. 

 

The win over Palace lifted us over Middlesborough (664pts) and into 14th place, bearing down on Leeds (692pts).

 

 

As you were.

Vardy potentially not training? Is he out for the match?

No one knows but I’m pretty sure that Eddie Howe is making preparations in case he isn’t t......

[MonmoreStef]

What a body blow no Vardy would be.  With Maddison and Ricardo both out along with Chillwell that is some injury list for us to overcome. 

[Sunbury Fox]

Vards looked like he pulled up running to close down Bellerin right at the end of the Arsenal game. Very worried if he is out. Without him, Maddison and Ric, where are the goals and creativity coming from?

I thought he was limping slightly after the arsenal game

Nothing new there, rarely predicts us to win

Iheanacho and Barnes then , pretty sure they can cause Bournemouth plenty of trouble.

[Foxin_Mad]

Unless I missed something I haven't seen Rodgers mention Vardy is out? I assume they are just managing his fitness.

He is quite open about injury issues but he hasn’t been in the past re vardy 

 

presumably because teams will change their tactical approach if they know he isn’t playing.

This is no time to be experimenting with Vardy in goal! 

[Gamble92]

Just watching Vardy's goals that the club have put up online.

 

Him and Drinky really had a chip on their shoulder with our supporters for a while didn't they? Some of their celebrations were more like they were offering us all out in a bar.

[Stuntman_Mike]

Not sure if it's been mentioned but this game is on Pick TV free to air (channel 11) aswell as sky, so might be worth saving any Now TV vouchers for the other games 

[Chester Dontlie]

MUST win.

Also   would very much appreciate it

 

 

[Wymsey]

Although if we win, they won't go down, but when was it the last time that Leicester had relegated someone the same day as beating them?

[turkish14]

With Watford winning, they even more need to go on the attack against us. Hopefully means they are more open 

[The whole world smiles]

Absolute must win for Bournemouth now (an actual must win not a foxestalk every week must win). Means they will have to come out and have a right pop which in theory should play into our hands.

Doncaster in 2014, final day of the season.

Doncaster last day of 2013-14? Wasn't Dickov their manager and we won it narrowly?
