Suspensions

Vardy and Wilf on 4 bookings . Neither should play next week . Wolves game is too big for either to miss , though sadly Wilf looks like being out 

[Walshy5]

Agree with this Regarding Vardy. The Wolves game is a much bigger game in context of our season. Looks like Ndidi will be out for quite some time anyway which is such a shame as he was looking like his old self in the last 2 games. 😔

Isn’t not playing someone because you are worried about suspension literally the same as the player being suspended? I get Wolves is big, but points are available against Newcastle too. Saying that, Vardy needs more rotation. I’m more worried about injury rather than suspension.

If a few suspensions is the price to pay for some bite in our team I'm more than happy to pay it.

Do they get reset in the New Year 

[RowlattsFox]

Playing Daka away from home at Newcastle may not be a bad idea. The pace on the counter will be a threat. But I'd be surprised if Vardy didn't start, with the mood he's currently in.

after 19 games, so yes

Newcastle isn't the "free hit" it would've been under Cooper though. I reckon we can get a point

Yep if you look at their recent results, they’re beatable and vulnerable (much in the same way they could hammer us).

Watch for the Xmas off 4 card suspension trick of taking the final yellow card in the game before Xmas to get Boxing Day off!

[jayfox26]

We can't write the Newcastle game off as they aren't actually very good, especially against teams towards the bottom. Of course they have threats in their team like Barnes, Isak and Gordon but they really aren't that great and I honestly think we could snatch a draw. We can't be allowing them as many chances as we did West Ham and Brighton though. 

[LVFox]

Agree on Vardy...we need him against Wolves and a rest isn't the worst idea.

 

Think Daka could cause Newcastle issues too

Exactly. They're still very much the favourites but under Cooper it would've been damage limitation

[Spudulike]

Is this the suspensions thread ? 

[Number 6]

The Vardy who is 2 games into a consecutive scoring streak?

 

In all seriousness there will be rotation over December but resting players for this game due to Wolves would send out the wrong message. It shouldn't be seen as a throwaway game and we're not good enough to pick and choose when we go for points. Play the best team available every week and pick up points where we can.
