Schmeichel Casta Morgan Soy Justin Ndidi Barnes Praet Tielemans Iheanacho Vardy This is West Brom we're playing not Liverpool, we've every reason to be positive. If Morgan not fit I'd play Armarty, depending on his fitness, one of the young lads, we really are making a mountain out of a molehill. When Evans, Ricardo and Maddison are back, hopefully very soon, there really is a decent group of players there to pick from. We should be fine for this one. Man for man with the West Brom team, I don't think we'd be swapping many of this selection above with many of there's, anyone would think it was us just having been promoted. We don't need any Rodgers overcautious bollocks either, get straight at em! Even though it’s all a bit different without the crowds, newly-promoted teams tend to give it their all in the first few games of the season - until reality (and lack of quality depth) sets in, that is. Wouldn’t be at all surprised if this turns out to be a very tricky tie for us. Edited 6 September 2020 by NaijaFox 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He won’t have even had a training session with us... oh, and chilwell did not play in the run in.. Thanks for the reminder on Chilwell, that actually makes me feel better because apart from the first 3 games without Evans, after that we are not weaker than how we ended last season, (which was also without soyuncu, which was the starting point of this particular discussion) imo. Re Castagne, that's a valid opinion, but not a cast iron fact. You may be right but I hope and don't think you are. He is probably the most up to speed player we have, and therefore vital. Not long til we find out one way or the other. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They are highly paid professionals and their performances/results since before Christmas have been fairly unacceptable at times, albeit not always their own fault. The pre-season games both in terms of selections and performances have been a little odd but it's the same for all teams. Rodgers is often touted by the media as a master man-manager and motivator and now's the time for him to prove his worth and earn his corn. I'm sure Slavan Billic, injuries or not, would be very happy to have the squad of players Rodgers has got to choose from in his opening game. Time for Rodgers to cut the blarney, time to put up or shut up. Burnley and Manchester City are a different kettle of fish of course. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also think we'll lose 2 nil. You don't think it is more representative of a shit load of players injured or unavailable?

Foxxed 4,134 Posted 6 September 2020 Report Share Posted 6 September 2020 (edited) Kasper Amartey Benk Soy Justin Thomas Ndid Youri Madd Barnes Vardy I would love to see that and absolutely love, love to watch the posts stream in on the first eleven pages of the match thread. I might give the match itself a miss, but eagerly watch the forum for the first poster to predict the cosmic inevitability of Pearson's return, who will first dig the club further into trouble, but eventually begin the long process of remaking the club in his image, again, only to be sacked at the first signs of success, again because of Person juniors predilection for Thai prostitutes, thereby completing the circle of life.

In and out, really, same as usual, but nothing to do with Leicester City. If you're implying that the points Stryderhiryu made of us having low confidence and being out of form are still with us since December, then I don't understand. Sure, you can justify those points up until the last game of last season, but I don't see how they can still be relevant based upon the present when we've only just completed a flimsy pre-season and about to embark upon the new one. Perhaps after the West Brom game those negativities can be reviewed, but I don't see how they can be pointed out at present. Surely we have to let go of December 2019 - July 2020 at some point?

A hopeless pre season (same for all clubs I know) No real marquee signing that gives the club a boost and a hopeless pre-season are good justifications of being worried. I don't understand being worried about the hangover from the back end of last season. I've just moved on and I'd be surprised if the players and management haven't.

EL we should be, but Rodgers will put pay to that with weakened sides.. A team that next Sunday could have Fuchs, Morgan, Albrighton in it... more like a friendly line up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
