Stop ****ing about Cooper.

Sit back and hit them on the counter. Got skipp in as we need to keep the ball well away from home. Experience of Ricky, bdcr, ayew and ndidi to see out the game with Kasey.

Grim start to the day . Going to be a wet one . Hope it’s worth it

Audio only in the UK, I should think.

NO

Two changes for me. Mavididi in for BDCR and Skipp in for Ndidi.

Got a feeling Mavididi comes in for Vardy, with only 4 rest days since Spurs.

Same but I reckon Ayew may start as it’s away from home and getting a decent press, will be in Coopers mind.

It was yesterday. Didn't you get invited? They issued a pass to every member of foxestalk and there were free sausage rolls and a bouncy castle and everything...

FFS don’t remind me of all the Download festival forum meets I missed out on.

Maybe but his not really been around for the build up and planning.

[FoxesWalk]

I’d like Mav to start but I think he’ll be benched again to come on for Vardy after an hour ish. 

[FoxesWalk]

Was Ayew registered in time to play? 

[adejo92]

If he's resting Vardy, i'd rather see Ayew as his replacement than trying to shoehorn Mavididi there. Either replace BDR for Mavididi or bring Mavididi on for BDR like against Tottenham.

 

I'd like to see Skipp in for Ndidi though, for sure.

We believe so

I’ve got a horrible feeling about this game… it’s optimism. And whenever I feel optimistic about a game we end up being dreadful.

I'm hoping against all hope that that's the only reason Stephy was on the bench tbqh 

[ronnup]

Mavididi in , thatll do.

 

Shit house an away win, 1-2

[Bob Weasel Fox]

Why not give Canon a chance ?

I would like to see this line up with Ricardo instead of JJ.
 

JJ is great at passing the ball sideways, if only he would do it after an overlap with Fatawu.

I thought that Justin was one our best performers on Monday. Harsh to leave him out.

Yeah stop that

[Paninistickers]

I wouldn't be entirely surprised if he might start winks, Skipp and Wilf (higher up) to try and stabilise us into the game 

[coolhandfox]

Get the performance right, if we can play for 60-70 minutes like we did for the 20 minutes against SpursI will be happy.

 

If we can play well the result will take care of themselves.

 

It we can pick up 4 points from Fulham, Palace away and Villa at home I'd be very happy.

Wilf can't pass very well, but he's great at get the ball back in dangerous positions.
