The People's Hero Posted 13 December 2020 Share Posted 13 December 2020 Its 5 at the back, but that doesn't mean its defensive. Let's see what happens. Happy to give it a chance. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filbertway Posted 13 December 2020 Share Posted 13 December 2020 Rodgers definitely logs onto FT an hour before kick off and absolutely loves seeing all the rustled jimmies. It's the only logical explanation to why he ties one hand behind our back against teams we should be beating by 2 or 3 at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's 19 - only had limited experience of the Premier league - and while I think he's been brilliant on the whole - has a few mistakes in him. If Soyuncu was fit I'm sure we'd be a back 4. Given injuries and Ndidi Still finding his fitness - he's being rightly cautious. I'd much prefer a back 4 myself - but there's no point being better as an attacking side while leaking goals ag the back too. Brighton aren't a bad side. In fact as shown by Fulham just drawing with Liverpool - the Premier league is all about those small margins and you cant take.any team for granted. There's subs there capable of changing the formation and tactics later in the game if necessary. Fofana played only in a back three at St Etienne? (Too lazy to check...)

HighPeakFox Posted 13 December 2020 Share Posted 13 December 2020 I know very little tactically. However, I know he's said he will stick with this formation style until he has his best defence back - regardless of Ndidi. So I'm really not surprised in the least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost to Fulham and scraped past Sheffield United....(baring in mind Fulham weren't anything like tonight)... Don't think we are in a position to rest players. Get the 3 points tonight is more important than worrying about Everton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raw Dykes Posted 13 December 2020 Share Posted 13 December 2020 Well, I can't really see it, but hopefully it will work. Such a great opportunity today with Spurs and Liverpool dropping points. Really hoped we'd go 4 at the back with Ndidi's return. Maybe BR's waiting for Ricardo and/or Castagne to be fit first? Glad to see Perez given a chance. Deserves it after his last game. Hoping to see Barnes and Under on for the last 30 or so, but not holding my breath. Maddison needs to put in a good performance today. Needs to buck his ideas up on set pieces, especially. Or be taken off them, which is probably less likely than getting a blowjob from the Pope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza M Posted 13 December 2020 Share Posted 13 December 2020 Glad Perez given the opportunity again. I guess it worked reasonably well with him Maddison behind Vardy against Sheffield United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayfox26 Posted 13 December 2020 Share Posted 13 December 2020 Does make me laugh this page at times. I assumed it was a page where people could talk about Leicester and share their views and opinions but as soon as people disagree with the team selection, they get slated for being a doom and gloom merchant or entitled. I am entitled. Entitled to my opinion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox85 Posted 13 December 2020 Share Posted 13 December 2020 Who knows we might get a result with team selection........ However. LCFC should bring in a 2nd manager to manage the team against the bottom half of the league while BR deals with the top half 🤣🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
