Fox85 913 Posted 25 February Report Share Posted 25 February Going off today's performance and a few others of late and the fact the club failed in another important transfer window my prediction is we lose this by atleast 4 goals.... If this team wants to take things serious and get upto the next level they need to invest in the squad and get atleast 5 quality players in in the summer. GOD WE LOOKED SO ****ING SHIT TONIGHT !!!

Brendan said before last weeks game with Slavia that Perez was out for 2 weeks, that presser was on the 17th so I think this would probably still be a bit too early for him Probably back for Burnley or Brighton next week 1 Link to post Share on other sites

STUHILL 2,890 Posted 25 February Report Share Posted 25 February I have big concerns for this game unfortunately. Arsenal just seem to be a team on the up at the moment, with their big players starting to fire again. I'm really hoping we see a reaction but I can't help think we will really struggle with out Maddison My prediction is that Iheanacho will come in behind Vardy and he has to have a real impact if we are to win this one!

Wouldn't necessarily they are on the up yet, 1 league win in 5, and the only teams they have beaten in 2021 in the league are West Brom, Newcastle, Southampton and Leeds They went very strong tonight, think they are going to be focusing on doing well in Europa rather than trying to properly climb the table 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Got a slight soft spot for Arsenal from when I was growing up so always keep one eye on them, and I wouldn’t be too worried tbh. They looked so poor tonight and there’s rumours they might be resting Saka and he’s the only one that makes things happen for them. Not saying I’m optimistic based on our performance, but can’t see them outplaying us 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Nicolo Barella 2,806 Posted 26 February Report Share Posted 26 February Vardy is destroyed, unpopular opinion but I don't think he should start. We are seriously mismanaging him at the moment. He should be playing a game a week, he just isn't young enough to eat up games like he used to. Give him a rest for the next two games and then we'll have a revitalised man for the run-in, hopefully, rather than hoping he'll play his tired body out of his poor form. Better to rely on Barnes and Iheanacho for two games that we might be likelier to lose, (although on Vardys recent form that's no given) if it means we will have Vardy fit and firing again. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

That's like beating Man City in the carabao cup. Link to post Share on other sites

Get prepared for a re run of last season Or the alternative view is that we will recover and refocus on what are now some very important league games. Arsenal played in Greece tonight and will be elated after needing to score two goals in the last half hour with a last minute winner. They'll still be buzzing saving their season hours later but need to get back to England, get to bed in the early hours with a bit of adrenaline still in them, see the draw Friday morning and travel to Leicester on the Saturday. By the time they play us Sunday morning they could be very flat. Link to post Share on other sites
Vindaloo FOX 642 Posted 26 February Report Share Posted 26 February Iheanacho a must start for me, Vardy not scoring at the moment and Maddison injured we need someone helping out with goals. Nacho has a goal in him, must start for me. Link to post Share on other sites

Deeg67 3,088 Posted 26 February Report Share Posted 26 February I think to some extent we're paying a price (as last year) for BR's reluctance to rotate the squad when he has the chance, because now he doesn't. Tielemans and Evans look gassed, and Vardy should never be starting more than once a week. Link to post Share on other sites

RowlattsFox 2,636 Posted 26 February Report Share Posted 26 February I've been critical of Vardy recently but this is the sort of game he has to start. He doesn't play at Burnley. Assuming Maddison doesn't play this is going to be hard work but I'd rather be facing a team like Arsenal then a a team who are going to sit and defend. Mendy in for Choudhury. Thomas was dreadful last night but he keeps his place because Ricardo will play on the right wing. Castagne at right back.. Link to post Share on other sites
