Not sure I want to watch this one to be honest, the squad is shit enough without missing so many players/having so many injury doubts. We need to make big moves in January else relegation is looking extremely likely imo.

I don't see how we do anything but play a back 3, or let's be honest, a back 5. Vardy is going to be lonely lol

Think that's why we should play 2 up top and go direct. Two strikers might make it more difficult for them to tippy tap it round their own 18 yard box also.

Feel for Eduoard if he does start as everything is stacking against him

 

1. People have already decided they're not having him

2. He's going to be part of a makeshift forward line

3. He's got absolutely no match fitness or sharpness

 

It's gonna be smooth brain mayhem.

I am still in contact with most of them. We have special connection.

This is exactly the sort of occasion where a horrid team with catastrophic injuries and a pony manager would get a comfortable 1-0 home win vs us and off we go with a string of bog roll hanging out our cheeks. 

 

Can't even work out how on earth we set up for this with who's out injured, likewise for the foreseeable. This probably helps Cooper though in surviving as there's genuine excuses if his team keeps losing.

 

Hermansen

 

Justin

Faes

Vestergaard

Okoli

Kristiansen

 

McAteer

Winks

El Khannouss

Ndidi/Skipp

Mavididi (it'll be Reid 😂)

 

Edouard

Even if we start with 12 they will still beat us.

Some big performances needed. We can get something. But surely he has to try a different formation.

 

I agree with you...he has to try something different......

 

But he won't..  and I have a really bad feeling about this match, really bad.

They will coast into a comfortable lead and then see the game out. Probably bring off their stars 30 mins from the end to give others a run out. We won’t lay a glove on them.

Spot on.   I totally agree.

 

 I'd love to cling on to the false hope that we know EnzoBall inside out and can hopefully avoid the traps, and counter the style ourselves.

 

However that would require a manager with an ounce of tactical awareness and a progressive game plan....oh wait we have Steve Cooper.

Our best hope for anything this week is cooper phoning in sick and Vardy taking charge.

 

Second thoughts let cooper monumentally fvck it up n get sacked.

Why? Let’s be honest, Cooper doesn’t seem to do a back three, with us. We could easily just go with:

 

                             Hermansen.

 

Justin.         Faes.         Vestergaard.       VK.

 

                   Winks.              Ndidi.

 

Ayew.              El Khannouss.           Mavididi

 

                                 Vardy.

 

which, tbh, isn’t terrible

Agreed, I think the performance will be interesting, because United was pathetic, and Chelsea are better than United. I feel that there’s a proper pasting around the corner and I’ve just got a feeling it’s going to be this one. I think Enzo will want to come here and demolish us too, he will be well up for this.

A chance for us to give a backs against the wall performance and get a point or three against the club that annoyingly keep cherry picking our best players and then manager. Would be great to send them packing back down the M1. 

Remember Enzo was "Poundland Pep" in the fickle world of FT in early April. They have some good players, but not all world beaters and neither is the manager yet. 

Get behind them Saturday those of us going.

Problem is the back 4 has proven to be rubbish.

Back 3 wasn’t to tremendous against forest either - I’d say worse
