Play like we did against Wolves and we will be fine. Defend like we did against Randers and will be rubber ducked.

What's wrong with Barnes now?

If a 433 'without' Barnes I'd have Lookman (on left where best), Iheanacho and Daka. 

Ndidi, KDH and Maddison in midfield. 

No Tielemans?

Not for me personally. He's not offering nearly enough at the moment. You can wait all game for one good pass, meanwhile he go missing and regularly gives the ball away. Certainly in tandem with Maddison I feel they would be far too lightweight for a strong physical side. It's not that don't rate Tielemans, he has his time and place.

 

I'd leave Ndidi solely to do what he does best, protect the back 4 and not Rodgers role for him. KDH in this sort of game offers so much more defensively and driving forward. Maddison is creative and in good form. I'd go as far as saying I'd prefer Mendy or Choudhury to Tielemans in this particular game.

This could be a turgid affair, Burnley will tread on our toes in midfield and try to create chances from set pieces. Our attack will come up against the no- nonsense defending of Mee and Tarkowski. 0-0 or 1-0 either way.

...Ben Mee is a very good defender, we had him here and  moved him on in the end!!!

 I am not sure if we had kept him here that he wouldn't have been a skipper in the long run.

  I feel he is a very underrated player who does not get the accolades he deserves.

This is the most 'would lose at Burnley' Leicester side I've ever seen.

Lose this and we're only 5 points off the bottom three. Pretty obvious that we are in an appalling state but this is getting too close for comfort now.

Not in an appalling state.

Just having a temporary decline.

We will be OK but at some point we will probably go down and then come back up again.

That's what we do.

Anyone going up on Tuesday, would it be worth starting a chant " putin is a w8nker,  putin is a w8nker, la la la, I'm sure Burnley will join in and maybe every ground will pick it up and do the same or is it just the red wine talking😀

....he will only feed off it, he craves the attention, it will make him feel important, he is pretty much a school yard bully!!!

I very much doubt Vladimir Putin, while conducting a full scale war, will feed off what fans sing in an English football match between Leicester and Burnley.

 

Something tells me we won’t be poking the bear.

I care, because if we lose this we're well and truly in a relegation scrap!

feel the same....reckon 38pts would see us safe, but can't see where the points are coming from at present..

We need to really up the workmate in midfield to win those 2nd balls, get the blocks in and make life hard. If we did that v Wolves we win the match. I know it is very Puel but I would be tempted to see Mendidi return in CM for this one.

Mendy and Ndidi in midfield was horrendous to watch. You might have forgotten, but I've not.

 

You're not having KDH in midfield?
