ScrumpyJack Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 Have a meeting at this time, 5-0 Rodgers masterclass incoming.
Guest Lako42 Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 Anyone willing to chance this with anything less than a full strength team is mad. We were humiliated in Poland. Nobody in Europe takes Leicester City seriously, and there is a good reason. Full team, top attitude and let's get a critical win.
Gravel Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 Is this being broadcast anywhere on radio other than BBC Leicester? Usually live matches not broadcast via local BBC on internet due to rights and my DAB is hit and miss.

I would agree, but I also recogniose this could impact the Brentford game lineup.
Deeg67 Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 Save Evans for Brentford only because that gives him a week. Everyone else the same. 1

But having seen how good we can be on Saturday and seeing how crap United are I believe we can get top 4 this season. We’ve been there for 95% of the last two seasons - we’re a very good side. We’ve just had a slow start. Go for the league always! It's a tricky one, of course there's enough points left for us to get to be in the top 4 shout but however bad Utd are at the minute I think as soon as they drop several points off the chase then a new manager will be in and that squad pisses top 4. We simply have to win today, otherwise its extremely difficult/almost impossible to qualify for the knockouts. From a measure of likelihood though with how things stand, a win tonight and we're then back in control of our destiny with 2 home wins vs Legia and Spartak and we have qualified and then it's a measure of whats more likely to happen? We'll need 60 points minimum from 30 league games with a chunk of key players missing in January or navigate about 10 EL games. Neither are easy and require us to be in good nick, probably need to be doing well on both fronts but right now I'd be looking to go as strong as possible today and then see what state we are in for the weekend. Hopefully not too bad as there's a decent chunk of our players that haven't played during the international break, or at least only played once. Today is the game to go full strength. Its shit or bust. 1

Everything I seen from Legia, Slavia and Spartak suggests they very much see us as a scalp. That’s partly been behind the results for the latter two 2

But if we want to actually improve our image we have to start taking continental competition more seriously.
Finnegan Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 1 hour ago, Bert said: Must win Kasper Ricardo Evans Soyuncu Castagne Tielemans Soumare Barnes Maddison Lookman Daka I think this is about what I'd do, yeah. Some rotation to get Daka, Barnes and Lookman in who need game time if we're playing 352 in the league and all should be good enough to beat Spartak. But at the same time, don't fvck around at the back. Game shouldn't be too draining for the defence but we can't take overt risks with too much rotation. 1

whoareyaaa Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 We need a win today I would go same team as Saturday probably, keep the momentum going and it's up to the players to keep there places.

st albans fox Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 They are the only team to beat Napoli this season. Admittedly Napoli had ten men for 80 mins but you would still wouldn’t have expected them to win there.
Clever Fox Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 We've got to take the game too them. It's waiting to defend on the edge of our box which has cost us this season. It's no push over of a fixture, But I feel we're at our best either pinning them back in their own half or Counter attacking with our pace. We've got to win to keep up any hope of progressing in this Competition.

The concept of which brought the idea into my head of a tailback of Tardises stretching from various locations (but the East Midlands in particular) caused by a logjam of them trying to land at one time-point just outside the Spartak stadium. I suspect the parking stewards would realise pretty quickly that frantic signalling just wouldn't cut it with police boxes emerging out of thin air. 1

But we lost. Because we bottled Napoli and were dogshit in Warsaw we now can't afford to do anything other than go full strength today. Edited 20 October 2021 by Sol thewall Bamba
UpTheLeagueFox Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 Make changes: Why aren't we taking the UEL more seriously?! Play strongest team: Why aren't we saving them for the next PL game?! 3

Play strongest team: Why aren't we saving them for the next PL game?! Yes, that’s the dilemma. We recruited to improve squad depth during the summer so surely sensible rotation (4 or 5 players?) is the way forward? We should still be strong enough if the side has the right balance.

If we lose with a weakened team: We should have started the first team. Rodgers out! 4

Personally I’m not bothered if the lineup against Brentford is impacted. Moscow is by far the bigger game and we have to win it. I’d only expect Evans to be missing from the 11 that started at the weekend.
Guest Chocolate Teapot Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 Four changes for me. Albrighton for Ricardo Bertrand for Castagne Daka for Vardy Vestergaard for Evans
CosbehFox Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 Just now, Bert said: What’s the actual reason for the 330 kick off? To avoid clashes with Lokomotiv Moscow’s home game tomorrow and TV scheduling clashes with Champions League games
StanSP Posted 20 October 2021 Posted 20 October 2021 Just now, Bert said: What’s the actual reason for the 330 kick off? Can't play tomorrow as Lokomotiv play Galatasaray at home, and can't play later as clashing with CL matches.
