Clever Fox Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 This game is going to be interesting for us because Mitrovitch has been playing in the hole the last time I seen him play and that will be a mismatch against Mendy. So Fofana may have to step out of the back to support him. They have looked decent without getting results. That tells me we need to keep the tempo up and keep them under pressure. What is important is the attitude Brendan sends them out with. We should be imposing our game on them and let them deal with it.despite the possible Banana skin I think we'll win comfortably.

We play with intensity and go tight on the opposition and suffocate them. 2. We sit and attempt to set traps and hit on the break. The first option is an uptempo style which brings all the players together working for each other and will frustrate the opposition. The Latter will not give us the intensity that we need and then it is about individuals winning individual battles as opposed to covering each other, irrespective of who is supposed to be picking up who. It seems it does not matter who we bring in to the team we are an up tempo team and that is us at our best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowlattsFox Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 Really important we win here. I have no faith we will beat Sheffield United next weekend, it has the makings of bad day. They've not won, we have a long European trip before, they are a threat from set pieces etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, Which is why Fofana needs to step forward to assist Mendy, At least while we get control of the game. I don't like the way we invite teams onto our penalty area before stopping them. we need to move that line further from our Goal. These are the games Brendan needs to be brave and find out exactly what he has in the squad. If we keep the tempo up then they will find it hard to live with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzFOX Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 I’m with many of you in that high tempo from the get go will be key. Overwhelm them! i know we’ll create a ton of chances when we play on the front foot. I just hope our attacker’s are clinical on the day. Can’t emphasize how important that is. Hope Barnes has his shooting boots on and Vardy bags a few too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OntarioFox Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 6 goals would be a massive ask, but hell, we've put 5 past Man City and 4 past Braga and Leeds, why the hell not? Any high-scoring win would be a pretty serious statement of intent, even if our GD doesn't pip Spuds this week. It's our defence conceding 6 in the last two games, even with some Kasper heroics in both, that's more of a concern to me. Let's be real, we have the attacking quality to win the game comfortably, but a 3-1 or a 4-2 would be a decent bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayfox26 Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 Really think we need to go back to a back 4. I'd like to see Kasper, Justin, Fofana, Evans, Fuchs, Mendy, Tielemans, Maddison, Under, Barnes, Vardy. With the creativity of Tielemans and Maddison and pace of that front 3, we could overwhelm them. We need to attack them with a high tempo from the off. They have played some decent stuff this season and haven't got the results their performances have deserved, but of we seriously want to be aiming for the champions league places, these games are must win. Brendan needs to get his team selection and tactics spot on. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love wins here and Thursday. Why not? This club has shown that nothing in football is impossible. Though it might be a tough ask, as all players will need to play greatly (for example, Barnes needs to at least hit all of his expected chances on target for a start..).

oxtonfox Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 This as all the hallmarks of a Foxes foul up. Everyone’s tipping us and even Fulham fans are hoping at best for a narrow defeat. My money is on Fulham to soften the blow of an embarrassment. Sorry but just pray I lose my bet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
