Bourbon Fox Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 Glad to see the pundits certain we're going to drop points...
kyleolly Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 Similar side to the game at home to Braga expect a similar score line 4-0 to Leicester
gurru991 Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 Its always entertaining to see the bedwetters coming out of the closet pregame.

Thomas also seems to have a sixth sense when it comes to finding Perez in the middle. I can see why there are concerns about the midfield three, but all of them have given good performances this season and I don't think we're asking either Hamza or Mendy to be an 'Ndidi replacement' as such. Finally, Amartey gets a start in his preferred position, so I hope he can step up and stake a claim to be one of our Fuchs or Morgan replacements when they finally hang up their boots. Iheanacho is what most concerns me as his performances are so variable. If he has a good day, we'll be alright. I just hope we can stay disciplined defensively and creative going forward. Three points here would be superb. Honestly, I'm less worried about Nacho - he seems to play ok with Perez - and more concerned about Choudhury (who I honestly think is a liability). Amartey (can be solid, but a little unreliable and he's been out such a long time) and Thomas (good going forward but a little inexperienced) If we had to slot one of them in, fair enough, maybe even 2, but three is a huge risk.
irishfoxkev Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 Hmmm watching build up here in Ireland on Premier 1 and they’ve just shown the 5. 0 drubbing we suffered there in 2018 .
Anglodanglo Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 Sensible selection from Rodgers showing our strength in depth. More than capable of getting a good result today. What a time to be a fan of our club

Choudhury instead of Wilf is my biggest concern, plus Amartey in a two. Kelichi is fine as long as he gets support and service.
Tielemans63 Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 Would be lying if I said I was confident with that line up

Dahnsouff Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 Always get a bizarre sense of dread whenever we play against Andros Townsend. Suspect it relates to a childhood fear of Davros from Doctor Who though. 2
cruzFOX Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 here we go! I'll happily take a scrappy smash & grab win or draw today. Just please don't lose foxes 1

Hales Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 I'm hoping Praet and Perez play a blinder today!
Charl91 Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 10 seconds in and Choudhury's first contribution is to hit in straight out of play. Start as you mean to go on.
Jaspa Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 Oh no, playing in the white kit again. Zorya away flashbacks
Lichfieldfox. Posted 28 December 2020 Posted 28 December 2020 Strong bench. Gray to come in from the cold shocker and score winner in super sub cameo
