We'll just end up losing the ball and it keep coming back at us if we play one up front, especially if it's just Daka. I agree, he should play both but Brendan will not do this in the league especially away from KP., He’s cautious and preferred choice is with 4231 or 451 or even 433, but never 2 up front it seems. Daka has lost a bit of confidence so maybe it will be Kel on Sunday

I know that is a hypothetical trade but it has to influence Rodgers’ thinking in terms of team selection. Losing to The Arse is painful!!.. and don't forget their players will be celebrating like they've won the PL/Champions League and FA Cup rolled into one if they do!!🤬🤬.. Smegends!

Lad1966 Posted 11 March 2022 Posted 11 March 2022 I want us to beat Arsenal and keep our good form going. Its about momentum, which we can take into Europe. Arsenal 0 LCFC1🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
urban fox Posted 11 March 2022 Posted 11 March 2022 Not going to risk playing Daka and Nacho together. If, knowing our luck, they both picked up knocks we would have no strikers with Vardy still out for a couple of weeks. 2
Vazman Posted 11 March 2022 Posted 11 March 2022 Arsenal 1 Leicester 2, with an absoloute horrible, horrendous last 10 minutes of the Game, where Arsenal look like scoring but dont, due to Cags and Dan's newly found form, and partnership keeping them out. FNQ come on the Foxes.

Yeah, I’m not sure that’s a wise move when we have another big midweek game coming up.

Its ridiculous we shouldn't be saying we should beat a side with double our resources and half the games. And it's even more ridiculous we're raising season ticket prices and that's only because our wage bill is out of control. .....I get the feeling this is not a rant and you are aware of something happening in the background!!! Not asking for details, but you have previously made us aware of things that happen in some aspects of the club, so I surmise that this is not some random post.
Fox1980 Posted 12 March 2022 Posted 12 March 2022 Anybody got any Arsenal team news? Have they picked up any injuries or given out any mega contracts lately so got players too busy counting how many cars they have to play?
Sampson Posted 12 March 2022 Posted 12 March 2022 I don’t get the calls for Daka and Nacho in a 2. Our most in form attacking players right now are Maddison Barnes and Albrighton. Why neuter your in form wide men and/or number 10 to facilitate more out of form players? 1
Clever Fox Posted 12 March 2022 Posted 12 March 2022 This is a must win surely if we have designs on top 6 Win this and our back games puts us right in the mix, up their with Arsenal and Utd I know it's a big ask but Brendan will want it to recover our season and his reputation. On Thursday all we need to do is another the game, which I think will be his game plan. That 2nd Goal on Thursday was huge and gives us a great chance.

It doesn’t matter whether we finish 8th or 17th. We’re finishing mid-table regardless. We should be resting players here and concentrating on the 2nd leg of the Europa Conference League.

A couple of extra places is worth more financially than winning the FA Cup.

Our central attacker has always looked isolated when it’s Daka or Kelch on their own. Arsenal are a very decent team, we can’t go into this game leaving one of Daka or Kalechi up top on their own. Our results have turned but there are still areas of concern going forward, we will have to juggle the side around to get any joy at Arsenal. 1

That sounds like something Spurs fans would say. I would hope most of our fans think we should be prioritising the Conference League now.

You’re only concentrating on what it does to our attackers and not other players in the side. Going to a front 2 almost certainly means taking Barnes out the side for example and I think Barnes is going to cause Arsenal far more problems given his form.

Just to add when I worked out; winning the ECL is about the same amount of prize money as 8th to 13th 1

Give me a trophy any day rather than some places up the Premier league. I completely agree. My point was that writing off the League has financial implications. Modern football is rubbish. 3

Lesta2014 Posted 12 March 2022 Posted 12 March 2022 Give nacho a start tomorrow. Reckon we will see 4/5 changes tomorrow. Lookman, perez, soumare, nacho, hamza will all start tomorrow I think.

The Tinpot Conference competition is the only thing that retains any interest for this season..so yes we have to prioritise it. Been a season to forget 😢!
