Soumare surely has to start this game along with Vestergaard if fit. They're a physical side and we need to match them up otherwise we'll be outfought and the game will end up similar to last seasons. 

I agree. 4-3-3 with Soumare in the middle with Youri and Wilf. I’d also play Albrighton ahead on Perez. 
 

But, I can see him playing a back three with Amartey Jannik and Cags.

 

We can’t play the same 11 as we did against Wolves. West Ham will simply eat us alive and it could be a very long afternoon. Dan gives the ball away to rice, he’s got three capable goal scorers to feed who will punish us. 
 

 

Going to be a very hard game, I’ll take a point all day long, but if they’re at it, we could be in trouble.

be nice if kels or Daka play on the right.. i think west ham will feel they can cope with us if play madders, albrighton, perez..certainly from the start...if its tight after 60 mins ask madders to come on and unlock them

I thought the same originally but after watching Bertrand against Villarreal and man city, I think he's first choice for what he brings from dead balls. They are excellent and something i didn't realise fully what we were missing til I saw it first hand.

 

Thomas is excellent and will rarely let us down, but treated right, he will be some player.

 

Pleased to say that we, and he, can fully trust the club to ensure he reaches his potential and for the first time in my lifetime, we get far more youngsters making a real impact on the first team, rather than burst onto the the scene and file out.

 

Ps. How you doing Fuchs? Good to see you active after your recent new thread.

Feel a bit lost with no Leicester this weekend but luckily I have an all day drinking session with the boys to keep my mind off it. (Kind of)

 

 

We'll see over the First months how the Bertrand Story pans out..He s Not considered for Monday anyway...

There is the question of his Covid-recovery needs...

Importantly this season, we  have no panic-area-buttons ,we need to press. All areas seem to be covered...

 

Do you have a Pub Crawl area / what Drink do you like to guzzle..?

 

I am ok relative speaking, unlike some many others C patients, pain aint that awkward compagnion. I can get around..Visiting my daughter for 12 Days in

Switzerland...Hope to get in some high .Mountain wheelchair treks in...

What is great about Switzerland, France,S.Germany, are the Barrier-free Nature trails & Adventure treks...Mountain cable-cars/small gauge trains Provision vor

Disabled & wheelchairs...Then some damn good/breath-taking trails...Others just a Quiet Wanderings among the nature. Animal/Bird life.

 

My daughter & hubby, are Quiet trekkers, hand climbers and have Two Beautiful Australian-sheperd dogs...

Take a look at..... Swiss.Paws..... mainly based  on  the dogs,& Trekking with dogs, but Great scenery sweeps...One sometimes just has to Click on the page

to Navigate through with presented titles...Then if you have facebook/instagram..opens up for comments or just info..

Sounds great. hope you have a good trip. We are so far behind in this country in respect to access to the countryside for disabled. I visit many nature reserves as i am a keen bird watcher and, although able bodied myself, it is a disgrace how very little, sometimes not even lip service is paid, is done to make many of these places more accessible. surely it is not beyond the wit of man to replace stiles with gates and provide ramps etc into the hides

Three capable scorers? Their leading scorers last season (Antonio and Soucek) had 10 goals each.

Yes  in the 3 countries mentioned, Not everywhere but they have barrier-free..hides or platforms.

3 years ago in Italy,we were pleasant suprised ,in various regions to find a couple of  barrier-free viewing-platforms in a more Quiet Area of Grosseto..

I must say our European neighbours, in all Everyday & offbeat life's routine are far more thoughtfull towards, Wheelchair / crutches users...I

Plus the normal guy/gal on the street...

Though to be fair, when I was last in Leicester, but just on crutches at the time,  once up Town & a couple of times

in Bradgate Park as I took a rest, it was  somewhat boisterous ( lads/lasses enjoying the day) older-Teenagers who asked if I was ok & offered to help...

 

My Personal Experience & thoughts...I Dont believe I could judge

" The peoples or passers-by", in any Country most are caring, One bad or poor interfacing 

is easily Blotted away by the more numerous showings of thought or care, Its more a question....

>> how Thoughtful are the council,Govts, and official , city,village,Province National-park organisations,towards Theme Barrier-free.<<

 

Back in the day I use to be a Volunteer in British Mountain Rescue & National-Parks...The " Wit  & will of man"   is there..!!

In UK on National-trails & footpaths, could be very complicated & political,...

" 100 yearold rights of way,part-ownership,  Shared responsibility,Farm or land-owners, most of them willing partners,

  but others a right Fly in the ointment"

100yrs of piffing laws across the land ,on just Stiles of all manner,Iron or wooden gates alone  ,

then difference between Open Land paths, or regulated Land paths.

What a Farmer can cultivate, & How many Yards for a NP-hiking path he must render available across/through his Land & where.

even government owned Land was regulated...

Good Ol' Prince Phillip was involved in some heavy schemes, & even back then pushed for Accessibility or Infrastructure for disabled..

Including bird/animal hides/platforms where accessable.....

 

The problem was, the "British bulldog spirit"  was on both sides of the argument...

Across Europe, the end of the war altered & opened up change & regulations, that made future changes more flexable & possible...

Soumare seems a fair bet if Bren wants extra muscle so they don’t out muscle us. Some extra defensive protection so they don’t target Amartay/Vest would be useful.
 

  Barnes Vardy Ian

      Tiele    Sou

            Ndidi

Thms Soy Amar Ric

            Kasp

 

If they don’t sit deep like Wolves I’d guess that the Perez Ricardo partnership would be less important, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Perez again for his interception stats.

 

Vardy looked knackered last match. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Daka make an appearance. Yet Vardy is so good at leading from the front.

Vardy always looks knackered...If takes some Fans Time to accept it...

Though last Week if it wasnt for the 1St 3 subs, then I reckon he would have been pulled in 75-80m..

This.  Pretty sure he had been told to give it everything as he could then be rested after 60/70 mins but the injury to maddison used up a sub so he ended up having to do the whole shift

It’s a shame this has come so early in the season. They’re clearly decent side and I really enjoy watching their attacking play. They had our number comfortably last season and I thought we were pretty poor last week against an inept Wolves side, even in the first half.

 

Once Europe kicks in I think they’ll find it hard, they’d struggle to carry even a couple of injuries as their squad stands at the moment and facing them then would be a lot nicer.

My favourite so far. I love the Albrighton bit.
 
3-3.

We go into the now customary 3 goal lead, Daka scores a couple to set up a week of people griping that we didn't bother going for him, some random sub like Albrighton scores after being on the pitch for 5 minutes in his only appearance until October.

My fave comment was where they said they’re attacking and midfield are far better than us but our defence is better!! We’re missing 3 regulars there!

I guess it just shows how people see things differently! I reckon he’s an excellent ref; can’t think of many better.

Also he has given us a lot of penalties over the years. Think people just remember every ref that ever makes a mistake against us and assumes he hates us from that moment on

 

Of course that is true of some refs like Jon Moss and Craig Pawson

They're performing well but to suggest tielemans doesn't get in their side is absolutely mind blowing. Not only does he walk into their side he walks into basically any midfield in the world.

Some of them posts are brilliant lol 

 

In all honesty, if you was to do a Leicester/West Ham XI - Everyone in both squads fit and available. 

 

I have 1 WHU player in it, Micky Antonio and that's him playing right wing.... 

 

Ndidi & Youri > Rice & Soucek

This is one of the classic games that could go either way. West Ham are a strong side, they showed that last season, showed it first game and too many have written them off on here before a ball was kicked.

 

We haven't looked amazing so far, pretty dull and got a slice of luck here and there. However, we have looked comfortable in games, even if not impressing. Realistically, we will probably battle out a point here. If I was being pessimistic I would say West Ham will comfortably beat us like they di both times last season, Moyes had a number on us. Being optimistic, I would say we will sneak a 2-1 win.

 

I am going for a 2-2 draw, late Daka equaliser (off the bench).

We have played 1 bloody game

I'm assuming our fans are counting pre-season as its mystifying where the negativity has come from? The 2 almost proper games we've played this season has seen us be pretty impressive vs Man City at Wembley and then our typical turgid self vs Wolves where we like to get our noses in front and then piss them off. 

 

West Ham were a problem to us last season, I want to see us show we can deal with danger like them. Surely that's why we brought in Soumare and Daka.

We had a good first half and a less good second half, so obviously we’ll do well up to Christmas, then fall away a bit!

As if, oh wait a minute...

Some of their combined starting 11s are interesting. Who would you take from their team?

Just going off the starters from our last games, Cresswell over Thomas, Dawson over Amartey and Bowen over Perez. With a fully fit squad it would just be Bowen.

With two fully fit squads, the only one that really sticks out is Bowen. 

 

I'm a fan of Soucek but don't see where he would fit in our starting 11. 

 

I can also see why they would argue Rice over Ndidi but don't agree.
