Sharpe's Fox Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Not important in the grand scheme of things but it would be nice to continue that winning feeling at Adams Park. Do we use a similar squad to Boro or let some of the fringe players have a go? Discuss.
theessexfox Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Similar squad, I'd give Knockaert a go to try and get some form back.
Happy Fox Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Use the team that beat Boro no point changing the game for fringe players lets destroy these High Wycomians.
Xen Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Similar squad and formation, but bring in a couple players that missed out on Saturday. Let the ones who did well carry on, though. Schmeichel Moore - Morgan - SSL* RDL - Schlupp James - DD Marshall Vardy - Waghorn Bench: Logan, Bakayogo, Taft, King, Dyer, Knocky, Nugent, Wood SSL is there 'cos we don't really have any other first-team options at CB, and I don't think Taft should start just yet. Can't figure out who to drop from the bench though, Nugent maybe if he's still not 100% Don't think NP will put out a weak squad, not after Burton last year... Edit: realised I missed Konch out as well after dropping him from the XI.. not sure where I'd put him/who I'd drop in his place. Probably SSL
Leicesterpool Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 For me no, because even though we won yesterday and it was good second half performance i still don't think that was our best XI, the tactics we played yesterday would suit Wycombe, we need to look play more attacking. Team: Kasper, De Laet, Morgan, Moore, Bakayogo, James, King, Dyer, Schlupp, Nugent & Vardy. Bench: Logan, St Ledger, Konchesky, Marshall, Drinkwater, Waghorn & Wood. I don't think we'll see Knocky!
Fox92 Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 I imagine Wycombe will get in our faces and be strong etc, so I can't see it being the game for Knockaert anyway.
cc_star Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Another game, another chance for the defence to get to grips with 352 I'd stick with broadly the same team, although could we play Zoom in place of Konch to help grow his match sharpness... And get Dannzy, & Knockaert on the bench so they can get some time on the pitch. Not sure on Nugent's injury, but would be good to grow the Nugent/Vardy partnership Schmeichel Moore Morgan SSL RDL King James Drinkwater Zoom Vardy Nugent Logan Knockaert Dannzy Waghorn Taft Caine Wood
Alex_LCFC Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 We made the mistake last season by playing fringe players against burton. We all how that ended

FoxesFan123 Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Has Konchesky played at centre back at all in Pre season?
LCFC FOX Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Has Konchesky played at centre back at all in Pre season? Leamington?
LCFC FOX Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Schmeichel Moore Morgan Taft De Laet Marshall Drinkwater Knockaert Bakayogo Waghorn Schlupp
lgfualol Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Team: Kasper, De Laet, Morgan, Moore, St Ledger, Bakayogo, James, King, Knocky, Nugent & Vardy. Subs: Schlupp, Konch, Logan, Waghorn, Wood, Marshall, Drinkwater Similar team to Boro, I wouldnt change the team drastically in case we do a Huddlesfield.
Happy Fox Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Kasper De Laet Morgan Moore Bakayogo Marshall King James Dyer Nugent Vardy Subs: Knockaert, Wood, Waghorn, Schlupp, Drinkwater, Konchesky and Logan
cc_star Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Has Konchesky played at centre back at all in Pre season? Not sure, but we moved him there during Blackpool home game & brought Schlupp to LB when Konch was getting skinned for pace. Moore Morgan Konch Could work, it keeps us a 1st team CB on the bench too & an ability to rotate should form or fatigue require it. Then with Zoom, Schlupp or Dyer at wingback we have ample pace to protect Konch... And we can attack down the left with pace, rather than diagonal hoofs, like RDL can down the right.
RowlattsFox Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Moore, bakayogo, nugent and Marshall/knockaert in for whitbread, konchesky, James and wood. Need keep same formation for continuity, whilst giving couple of players like zoom and nuge some minutes after a quiet pre season. With James injury record I wouldn't risk playing him so much so soon. Wouldn't be against trying konchesky at left centre back instead of st ledger. Wouldn't be surprised to see us lose, can't be doing with extra time and that though so go for it.
kingfox Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 We will probably change formation I think, so the likes of Dyer can have a go, because he doesn't really fit a 3-5-2. Schmeichel Moore - Morgan - Hopper - Bakayogo Marshall - Danns - James - Dyer Waghorn - Wood Subs - Logan, St Ledger, Konchesky, Knockaert, Drinkwater, Schlupp, Vardy
Captain... Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Tough call really, lots of players who would benefit from getting a game under their belts, Zoom, Marshall, knocky, Schlupp, waggy, Dyer, then there are the young lads on the fringes. SSL appeared to be a bit stiff yesterday, so I would play Konch in the back 3 and Zoom at left wing back. I would play either Marshall or knocky as a CAM behind vardy and Nugent. We need to get plan A nailed, but no harm in having an eye on plan B.
LCFC FOX Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 We will probably change formation I think, so the likes of Dyer can have a go, because he doesn't really fit a 3-5-2. Schmeichel Moore - Morgan - Hopper - Bakayogo Marshall - Danns - James - Dyer Waghorn - Wood Subs - Logan, St Ledger, Konchesky, Knockaert, Drinkwater, Schlupp, Vardy You would put an inexperienced striker at CB over high potential George Taft?
cjslcfc Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Keep a fairly similar team. I'd give Marshall, Zoom, maybe Waggy and maybe Danns a run out. Also by the sounds of Nigel's post match interview he will persist with the 3-5-2 to get it working.
Lambert09 Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 I would add bakayogo, Taft (or the next CB pearson would play should one more defender get injured), knocky/ marshall and waghorn with wood
kingfox Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 You would put an inexperienced striker at CB over high potential George Taft? Yes. Hopper has a squad number, Taft doesn't. Hopper did well at centre back in pre season, and as it's a Cup game, I don't see the harm in playing him there. He could be the next Steve Walsh
Aus Fox Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 I think we are going to need our whole squad thus season get as many games into as many players as possible. Would not play Knocky against league 2 opposition they will kick him all over the park. Would keep Vardy in though see if he can get another goal on 2. Schemichael Taft SSL hooper Moore Schluup Danns. Drinkwater Marshall Wood. Vardy Subs: Logan Waggy king dyer Gallagher Morgan zooma
MikeyT Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Schmeichel De Laet Morgan Moore Bakayogo Dyer King Danns Knockaert Wood Schlupp Subs: Logan, Marshall, St. Ledger, Nugent, Vardy, Waghorn, Gallagher
darko2k7 Posted 4 August 2013 Posted 4 August 2013 Kasper, De Laet, Morgan, Moore, Bakayogo, James, Danns, Dyer, Knocky, Marshall Waghorn. 3-1 win . James, Waghorn , Marshall
