Sir Shep Posted 26 December 2020 Share Posted 26 December 2020 Vardy likes to score against palace so it’d be madness to drop him, rest him for the cup game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree let's get ahead comfortabley if possible, before subs and resting players, plus I want too see Vardy do the Eagle celebration if at all possible! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vardy like to score, full stop. If he's fit he has to play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzFOX Posted 26 December 2020 Share Posted 26 December 2020 I wonder at what point in the season and what game we will actually have EVERYONE fit and ready to play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deanolegend1989 Posted 26 December 2020 Share Posted 26 December 2020 This is where I don’t understand this logic. Yes 48hours, but there is absolutely no point getting 4 points off spurs and Utd to then get 4 points out of 9 because your being naive. We won’t win with some of the crap teams a lot of people want to see. We need to keep our spine as such or we’ll never win. Palace arnt some non league team. Kasper Justin Fofana Soyuncu Castange Praet Ndidi Tielemens Under Nacho Barnes We need to keep a majority in. Vardy probably needs resting. Bring him off the bench or maybe play him first half then take him off if leading. Praet will play, Ndidi must play too. Tielemens is so crucial to us , he may need a rest but we struggle to really dictate when he’s not on that’s the problem. Could play a 3 with Praet sitting with Ndidi and Madders in the hole. Barnes Under Perez all fine options , do not an issue there. At the back, depends how Evans is but probably best to rest. Soyuncu will play, as will Fofana and Justin. Maybe as a 3. Could do a back 5 of: Castange Justin Fofana Soyuncu Thomas that would give a bit more cover to help them all have less defensive work. Lots of options but BR must not go too weak because it’s just a waste of energy. If we were going to do that, I’d rather of just put the reserves out vs Utd and then gone full strength vs Palace and take a loss vs Utd to get 3 vs palace. Its a must win game if we want to stick around the top 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdb Posted 26 December 2020 Share Posted 26 December 2020 Cant drop Ndidi. They're very physical. Perez for Madders and maybe squeeze Praet in there, but I don't want to see wholesale changes. No one will be as bad as West Ham were last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the problem though, we SHOULD. The problem is if we rotate we won’t. Top teams would shag them silly but we are only a top team with our first 11. When a few weaker players come in , were an average team. Average teams would go to Palace and might lose might draw might win. Equal match if we rotate too much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castagne, Ndidi and Maddison are recently back from injury and will have to be managed to prevent niggling an injury and that will be down to certain staff to evaluate. Vardy's groin issue also. I'm sure they'll play if deemed fit enough to do so but better to miss one match than be out for another month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shailen Posted 26 December 2020 Share Posted 26 December 2020 I worry about this one. They'll have very little intention to go at us and counter and will look to frustrate us for long periods of the game and then try and break on us. We need to score early otherwise I think we'll find it hard to break them down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
