RowlattsFox 2,532 Posted 24 January Report Share Posted 24 January Whatever happens, Tielemans and Maddison must not get injured. Great to see Youri with the armband though. Always worry when we make changes, but understand why. We've 3 of our best playing in attacking areas though, and 2 arguable first choice players in defence. It's not a "reserve" team and there are not excuses. Link to post Share on other sites

whoareyaaa 2,518 Posted 24 January Report Share Posted 24 January Nacho must be seething surely that's it for him, if he can't get a game against Brenford he has no chance of making any impact Link to post Share on other sites

Finnegan 26,905 Posted 24 January Report Share Posted 24 January 37 minutes ago, StanSP said: The leak has spoken... I know a lot don't rate him, but it surprises me Iheanacho doesn't start if this is true. It doesn't surprise me. Rodgers comments the other day implied that Perez was going to play 9 when Vardy was out. Given Perez hasn't had too much match time generally this year it doesn't surprise me he gets a shot to start there today. I've never had the impression Rodgers rates Nacho really long term.

Webbo 17,170 Posted 24 January Report Share Posted 24 January Ihenacho had been here for a while before Perez was signed. Surely the writing was on the wall then? Link to post Share on other sites

Ideally i wanted Wilf AND Tielemans protected...but that does leave Midfield threadbare. Perhaps they are gonna do 45.mins.each? How.many subs are allowed? Link to post Share on other sites
StriderHiryu 17,716 Posted 24 January Report Share Posted 24 January (edited) Youri is captain! Very well deserved, I hope he becomes a future club captain and stays with us for a few more years yet. Top quality player and person! Edited 24 January by StriderHiryu 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites

But we really don't have cover do we I am pretty sure Brendan said in a post match interview once that Youri is actually the type of player that benefits from consistently playing and that’s why he rarely rests him. Of course there’s a balance and he couldn’t be expected to play 90min twice a week for months on end but whilst he’s fit and able I trust our management and medical staff 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully we can get in front and take him off to protect the lead. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
