Better get your foot down. 

[Lesta2014]

Any new/good stream sites for this? 

[Suzie the Fox]

Could do with points on the board. 2-1 Maddison & Daka.

Looks good to me!

[TrentFox]

Has there ever been an opening fixture when the actual match was so far down the priority list in everyone’s thinking? 

[LestaAl]

Vardy to score 2 please.

Revised line up

 

Iverson

Justin Evans Soyunchu Castagne

Mendy Praet

KDH Madison Soumare

Vardy

 

 

Same same but different Leicester City 

 

...it looks like you are hardly trying!!!

  Justin on the right and Castagne on the left, needs switching. A Mendy/ Praet pivot and KDH/ Soumare in wide positions,  it is just not happening. 

  However if this line up is a fishing post, then you've got me.

[SheppyFox]

A must win. Shouldn’t be an issue.

[foxinsocks]

Praet to start.  How stubborn is Rodgers?

[Blue-fox]

Been reliably informed Big Dan starts, no Barnes. 
 

541

[lcfcbluearmy]

                      Iverson/ ward

castagne     fofana     Evans    Justin

                            Ndidi

        Tielemans/praet    KDH

                         Maddison    
             Vardy.           Iheanacho

Speak for yourself, this is all I've been looking forwards to for weeks. Everything else is just noise, come on City!!!

Whilst I like those players. There's no width at all unless the FBs bomb on. So reliant on JJ & Timmy being progressive.

Really hope Iversen starts today just for continuity, as he has played all the way through pre season and i would be worried that Ward would be rusty and undercooked to be thrown straight into a premier league fixture after missing most if not all of pre-season 

Yes I agree. He's also a player who played every week of last season not a guy with just a sporadic handful of games in the last couple of years. It would be a ridiculous decision to play a half fit goalkeeper.

Big dan never lets us down 

[FoxesWalk]

Wonder if that Fofana injury will keep him out…

Not bad. I'd prefer it if they were facing the other way though....

You dirty bast@rd

[cstott_lcfc]

With barnes (our only good wide option) out injured it'll surely be a 5 back

Yeah my thinking too. Kind of hoping praet and madders play as slightly wide attacking mids, with Youri and KDH behind. Shouldn’t need 5 atb and wilf at home against Brentford imo.

Risky strategy putting him on the wing but it's one of the only places we've not actually asked to play at yet so its worth a go.

Me too. Was on my mind every day for weeks despite trying to take a summers rest from it all. Very excited but will be glad to get underway particularly if we get a really positive result. COYB 

[lanefox]

Diamond please

[dmayne7]

If Iheanacho can't get a start when it's almost forced upon Rodgers (either a diamond on 5atb with 2 up top), then I'm going to take a leaf out of the Algerians' book and start a 'free Keeeleeechi' campaign.
