I assumed Vardy would start in this, so why keep him on for 90 mins against Wednesday?

Wonder why Cannon wasn't given 30 mins at Hillsborough to give JV a rest?

Perhaps a mis-firing Nacho is back in the starting line-up on Saturday?

vardy for me as finished i thought hed run riot in that league but im wrong hes now a half hour player

We need to improve quickly. There are a lot of good teams in this division who will happily take the top 2 spaces off our hands. 

 

To be honest I still havent seen us put in 1 convincing performance this season.

Enzo is playing it safe. He knows other teams will drop points here and there. He won't go gung-ho. Keeping it tight, he's probably accepted there will be results like yesterday's. 

I'm not saying I agree with this approach but it is what it is. We need a prolific finisher and a proper 10. Good luck with this, nothing in the market.

I would be tempted to start with two forwards in this game either Vardy / Nacho; Cannon / Vardy; Cannon/ Nacho we need to mix things up.

Enzo is pretty rigid in his approach to the game. I don't see him starting with two forwards.    I would really like to see Cannon get a chance of some kind. Neither Nacho or Vardy are burning up the league.

Is it worth me getting up 4am in the morning and going to a bar to watch this in Vegas?

I think we will see Cannon on Saturday because Vardy played the full 90 yesterday.

 

It’s annoying because Nacho will probably get the majority of the game even though he’s been awful for months.

...I would love to see Cannon start, we need something different!!!

The way our strikers are being deployed, where they drop so deep just cannot help us going forward. If it is a ploy to draw a defender out by following the striker, then having dropped so deep all the CBs would have to do is pass them on, no need to get dragged out of position. You don't drop so deep, as dropping 5 yards off the backline encourages a CB to go tight, it leaves a space in behind to exploit and makes sense, Our #8 or winger now has the opportunity to go in on goal. The strikers cannot continually drop so deep.

Tend to agree with the most popular prediction on here of 2-0 West Brom. They are on the up, we are on the down and style wise, the game probably plays into their hands. 
 

Would definitely take a draw though as a defeat actually brings West Brom themselves into sight!

Agreed, the movement short from our strikers seems too short. I don't see our 8's busting the backline in those instances to exploit the space. 

I still want to see wingers going on the outside more often. Passing from the byline area will always create goals.

Finally attacking quickly, 1 touch when we can. Most chances are created with a first time pass (this is an eye test observation, not based on stats!)

We have 28 games to go. If we average 2 points a game for the rest of the season we would finish on 99 points and likely Champions promoted.

 

After a reset from back to back defeats we have taken 4 points from 2 games. 

 

A draw here and a win at home v Plymouth keeps that going with Millwall to follow.

 

There is no point stressing when things don't go our way like the other night. 

 

Tomorrow will be tough but I'm not going to have a meltdown if we lose as I think 92-93 points will be enough for automatic. 

 

Leeds have some tricky games coming up also. We just need to keep winning at home as a priority.
