What is happening here!

Proper shock tactics for a 1-4 domination. They won't even know what hit them. 

[Mendi]

[Gazza M]

Not sure what to expect tactically. Assuming Ruud would have some input if appointed tomorrow but probably from the stands. Would like to see back 3 with Faes, Justin and VK dropped. 

 

                      Mads

      Coady     Vesty    Okoli 

McAteer                          Mavadidi 

              Skipp   Soumare 

                      Ndidi

               Facundo 

                            Vardy

[Unabomber]

I can see this being a very embarrassing afternoon for Wissa and Frank 

[FoxinNotts]

I’d imagine Ruud will line us up like this

 

                       Hermansen.

 

Justin.       Okoli.       Vesty. Kristiansen.

 

                  Ndidi.      Soumaré

Buonanotte.       BEK.            Mavididi

 

                            Vardy.

Justin (or Filbert Fox - no other options?)

Vestegaard

Buonanotte  

El Khannouss

Mavididi

 

Vardy

 

Ayew & Daka on for Mavididi & Vardy for last 20 / 25 minutes at least (looking at you Mr "They've paid a fortune to watch so let's have a go for three minutes in added time" Cooper)

Faes left out so he realises his name isn't rubberstamped on the team sheet, he has to stay focused to keep his place and earn it.

 

In reality it won't be this, Soumare will be in for his relaxing Saturday afternoon stroll around, Wilf will be AM and El Khannouss probably left out or MacAteer RW, Buonanotte AM. And Faes will start.

rest Vardy, stick Ruud upfront, he’ll be our second best striker at the club and we can save JV for Tuesday night.

[dmayne7]

People suggesting Mavididi as a left wing back? 

[SecretPro]

Put Ruud up top.

[Wymsey]

Think a win, now, as can see the players being pleased such a PL legend with a decent managerial record in charge.

We’re continental now, 11 technically gifted players comfortable in all positions, shouldn’t take more than 2 days to get to that level of cohesion

Don’t want to see Mcateer anywhere near starting, rather Alves in there tell him enjoy himself 

[Jazzy_Jeff]

Mads

 

JJ

Faes

Vestergaard

Kristensen

 

Skipp

Soumare

 

Buenanotte

El Khannous

Mavididi

 

Vardy

 

Ward, Coady, Okoli, Ndidi, Choudhury, Ayew, Mcateer, BDCR, Daka

 

This is assuming Winks is unavailable 

[Fear Of The Fox]

I'm still the only one suggesting 2 upfront. 😔 

Hope RVN has the same adventurous approach as me. We need to shake things tactically, we're in the mud. We don't have the quality in midfield to support a lone striker. Just go for the diamond and hit on the counter with some speed and more options upfront. 

[jim5000]

Ruud will instantly lose a lot of goodwill if Soumare starts again 

[OadbyBlue]

Hermansen

 

Justin

Vestegaard

Okoli

Kristiansen

 

Ndidi

Skipp

El Khannous 

Buonanotte

Daka

Mavididi

Hi all - I know there's another forum for this and I'm posting there as well, but have to try all angles.  I'm in London from the US for the game.  A very helpful and great poster here responded to my initial thread in the tickets section looking for tix to the game Saturday.  He arranged for his friend to buy tix for me, then sent them to my hotel.  I just arrived tonight - and the envelope that is waiting for me that he sent royal mail tracked, etc - was empty and taped shut.  Somebody opened the envelope and took the tix.  I'm gutted.  My 5 year old is crying.  I want to as well.

 

If there is any chance that somebody has a lead on up to 4 tix for the game, please please let me know.  I know it may not be appropriate, but I'm happy to pay above face value at this point.  Looking for 2 (me and son) or 4 (whole family) tix.  Thanks in advance.  🦊 

[boosmanana]

It'll be something like

 

Hermansen

 

Justin

Vestergaard

Okoli

Kristiansen

 

Winks

Ndidi

 

Buonanotte 

El Khannouss

Mavididi

 

Vardy

 

We'll defend with a 3 of Justin, Vestergaard and Okoli when we've got the ball and Kristiansen will push on. Not a dissimilar shape to Enzo on the ball is what I'd expect, just a little more direct into the striker/more attacking midfielders feet. At least that's what he'll try to encourage/build towards. I feel like we'll attempt to bring in a more athletic left back and a mobile target man type striker in January too

Turns out if you are trying to shoot you are ok to miss the ball and take out the keeper with a studs up challenge halfway up his shin. Learn something new every day
