Corky Posted 16 October 2020 Share Posted 16 October 2020 How can players who aren't able to play for their country are allowed to stay instead of returning? Praet was on the bench on Wednesday and now he's doubtful for us!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the most disappointing part of the press conference. Hopefully by way off he means a month or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Praet was on the bench on Wednesday! I don't get why Praet and Cags were not sent back or actually why Dennis even went in the first place? He is wearing a lot of strapping on his knee and both may of been able to continue treatment instead of sitting in a stand or on a bench! 🙄😔 Edited 16 October 2020 by Hales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowlattsFox Posted 16 October 2020 Share Posted 16 October 2020 Thank God for PPV. At least that's given us another day to get Evans fit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed. Estimates of return dates seem way off at the minute, which does raise questions about the physio team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross 'LCFC' Turner Posted 16 October 2020 Share Posted 16 October 2020 Realistically we are looking at; Schmeichel, Castagne, Morgan, Fofana, Justin, Mendy, Tielemans, Maddison, Barnes, Iheanacho, Albrighton (To help deal with Grealish) He could go with a back 5 of; Albrighton (RWB), Justin, Morgan, Fofana, Castagne (LWB) I think Evans & Vardy will play with injections though!

Leicester_Loyal Posted 16 October 2020 Share Posted 16 October 2020 22 minutes ago, goose2010 said: yeah not sure that is allowed / possible. Also not sure the players would be that happy about it. They probably wouldn't tbf. I think Chelsea have asked their players, didn't a few get rested or miss out because of 'injuries'. What's happening is players are getting injured on duty, coming back and then they'll be off again in 4 weeks, probably just as they get fit again, madness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon the Hat Posted 16 October 2020 Share Posted 16 October 2020 This is going to be one of those where we all despair at the starting line up who then surprise us all and scrape a plucky 2-1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st albans fox Posted 16 October 2020 Share Posted 16 October 2020 if vards was fit we could try a game of 'basketball' to try and outscore them. they got seven last time - surely they arent getting more than two this week after using up all their luck last time ?

RowlattsFox Posted 16 October 2020 Share Posted 16 October 2020 If Evans is fit then I don't think it will be as bad as we are fearing. Kasper Castagne Fofana Evans Justin Mendy Tielemans Under Perez Barnes Iheanacho It's actually not bad, nothing on the bench though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would look even better if Maddison is fit enough to replace Perez. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaijaFox Posted 16 October 2020 Share Posted 16 October 2020 1 hour ago, The whole world smiles said: Really don't understand why northern Ireland felt the need to start Johnny Evans in 3 games in 7 days including 120 minutes in the first one. fair enough the first one was absolutely massive for them, no complaints but that last game against Norway was a complete joke they rested every single other player except Evans and he's 32 and carrying an injury coming into the international break!

Sometime you just do not come back or come back to your best after this kind of injury. The weird thing was that he played on in the match, nearly 9 months ago, what were we thinking?
