Hooray but let's al be optimistic because that's worked for all the other times we were supposed to be optimistic. Keep the faith! Foxes never quit! We're f ucked. Don't worry mate, it's still in our hands. Our shaking, numb, useless hands.

We are at home in a must win game, and are fielding the slowest back 3 ever, effectively a back 7, and kelechi on bench? It's odd and yoh know it, it's not being miserable it's being real 1 1
NaijaFox Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 COME ON YER FOXES! Must confess the line up somewhat threw me for loop but I remain quietly CONFIDENT of victory tonight.
Guest nathan. Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 You bunch of whinging bastards. Show abit of support!

Not sure why one of our most in form players (Iheanacho) isn't starting. He used him as flame-shield last week-end, so there was no way he'd start him. I hope for his sake (and ours) that this doesn't backfire. Edited 16 July 2020 by That_Dude 1
ALC Fox Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 Jesus Christ I didn't see that line-up coming. Last throw of the dice from Rodgers then! With all our injuries I guess Wilder would've been preparing for a four-man defence and Fuchs in the left-back role. I hope Thomas has an absolute barnstorming game, a bit like Chilwell in the Atletico second leg. I imagine his adrenaline levels are through the roof right now! 2

I understand he had to play Bennett or Morgan, but not both surely. Then the formation. I don't care which way you try and spin it, it's 5 defenders. Plus a DM plus a goalie. That's 7 defensive players out of 12 when we are at home in a must win game. They always play 5 at the back with a DM too. Good luck Vardy. Then, we play a 19 year old hardly any one has heard of, again in the BIGGEST GAME OF THE SEASON. UNBELIEVABLE. And I took the piss out of someone listing James in the team. This season has gone from good to amazing to one of the best ever, to an absolute shambolic joke. Players injured, suspended and or out of form, strange formation changes, crap losses to bottom 3 teams. Shows more than ever the sorry state of our squad. Soyuncu, Maddison, Chilwell and Ricardo all missing is just too much. Go on, who’d you have played then?

It's makeshift no doubt, but surely it's a better option than throwing a young kid who's never even played a League Cup match before into the deep end? 1
Beachyboy Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 Excited to see Luke Thomas, possibly Hirst and Johnson off the bench, I knew there had to be someone that will get a callup after that Bournemouth shitshow. 1
Stadt Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 We're not forced into playing a back 5. The two man midfield hasn't been working and now we'll be overloaded centrally and placing a lot of stress on two inexperienced wingbacks - I'd have been far happier with 4141 with Ndidi, Tielemans and Praet centrally

OntarioFox Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 Well one bright side folks - McGoldrick already broke his duck, so we're not giving the Blades their Solanke moment today at least Sheff Utd. aren't exactly a fast team, very much a crosses into the box type of set-up, so let's hope and pray pace is not a necessity today. Our backline is borderline geriatric. Looking forward to seeing Thomas. Ridiculously big game for him to be thrown into though. IMO, we need to win by two clear goals to have any chance going into the final day. I can't hack the thought of us having to go to Old Trafford and win for the first time since Tony Cottee in 1998 to get top 4. Vardy better be fired up for this one - looking forward to seeing him smash one in, run over to the corner near L1 and cup his ears to an empty stand of imaginary Blades fans.
NaijaFox Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 I realize that not all change is progress... But we simply had to do something different. COME ON YER BEAUTIFUL FOXES!!

I read that Hamza was been tried as a right back in training, wonder what happened to that idea.
Free Falling Foxes Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 Saved a bit of paper, team sheet and suicide note in one.

Cameron Davidson Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 What would be REALLY funny is if Evans gets injured and can’t play Spurs. back 4 of Justin, Bennett (cheers 5 mill), Morgan, Thomas .....
Shamomoa Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 Since we've had a tiny bit of success with 3 at the back it seems to have become the normal. Is this Rodgers favourite formation?
FoxFossil Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 Hirst and Vardy, true Wednesdayites, to score tonight.
coolhandfox Posted 16 July 2020 Posted 16 July 2020 Don't use academy graduates people moan, use academy graduates people moan! We are hamstrung by injuries, what do people expect miracles.....
