Moto Hello Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 I know there's been many of these threads but I think it's relevant now we're in the week running up to the match. Schmeichel De Leat Morgan Moore Konchesky James Drinkwater Mahrez Nugent Schlupp Ulloa Does anyone disagree with that? With Albrighton, Knockaert and Vardy out, Schlupp is almost the only option for the left wing.

Mark_w Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 Kasper De Laet Morgan Moore Schlupp Mahrez James DrinkwaterKnockaert Vardy Nugent With Ulloa replacing Vardy if he's out and Albrighton replacing Knockaert if he's out. If there's no Albrighton or Knockaert then I'd push Schlupp forward and put Konch in as you suggest.

benpicko Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 Kasper De Laet Morgan Moore Schlupp Mahrez James Drinkwater Knockaert Vardy Nugent With Ulloa replacing Vardy if he's out and Albrighton replacing Knockaert if he's out. If there's no Albrighton or Knockaert then I'd push Schlupp forward and put Konch in as you suggest. Yeah I like that. Thought Knockaert looked better against Everton last time and obviously he's been with us longer so I'd put him on before Albrighton currently. Unfortunately doesn't look like we'll be able to play either
leicesterseddon Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 Schmeichel De Laet Moore Morgan Schlupp Albrighton James Drinkwater Mahrez Vardy Ulloa Is, for me, our best starting XI on paper. Slightly worrying that it only includes 2 new players on last season's starting XI, but there you go... I haven't heard anything definitive about the injuries. We know Albrighton and Vardy are doubts, and that Knockaert is a major doubt, but does anyone know anything more than that? As far as I know, no one from the club has ruled them in or out yet, and a decision probably won't be made until later in the week. If Vardy can't play, then replacing him with Nugent shouldn't do us much harm. He's had a good pre-season and he'll be fired up to play Everton. It's the Albrighton injury that worries me, particularly if Knockaert is out too. It means we'd probably have to play Schlupp on the left wing (who won't provide as much defensive cover as Albrighton does), and Konchesky at left back (who I highly expect will get mugged throughout the game). Highlights the need for more strength in depth before the transfer window closes. Still, I fancy us to give them a good game.
benpicko Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 Still think that our best starting XI is the one we played most of last season with, unfortunately doesn't look like we'll be able to play Knockaert or potentially Vardy so: Schmeichel De Laet - Morgan - Moore - Konchesky James - Drinkwater Mahrez - Nugent - Schlupp Ulloa Definitely put Knockaert and Vardy on if they're all right to play though.
chris_lcfc_85 Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 Dont see how King cant start after Saturday, he was superb in behind Nugent I think the side around that picks itself if the injuries dont clear up. Hopefully Albrighton may make it as looked good
Dylster Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 Schmeichel De Laet - Morgan - Moore - Schlupp Drinkwater - James Mahrez - King - Nugent Ulloa If Vardy and Knockaert can play I would replace King and Nugent.
foxfan92 Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 hi - my first post can't see how we can leave Nugent out after the preseason he's been having - but then it'd be a decision between him and King in the number 10 place assuming Vardy isn't 100% would love Vardy to be at least on the bench mind I agree we will probably try 4-2-3-1 I'm just worried that the formation is going to leave us a little stretched giving danny and matty too much to do and leaving whoever is number 10 unsure about supporting leo or helping them out GTF got caught out a bit in no mans land during friendlies and wasn't always there to help leo out maybe a case for 4 - 5 -1 with Dean and Matty giving Danny licence to run forward to support and the wingers having to do a lot of running and cut inside to act as an additional option upfront when we break forward. Richie will be making forward runs and depending on who is at LB we might have both full backs supporting an attack hoping Anthony and Marc are fit and Jamie too please ... oh and can we have cambiasso ready to come on if needed too ...
mozartfox Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 So much for competition for places then. If Wood is indeed sold off, we will struggle to fill the Bench now. Unfortunately, the lack of new faces coming in thus far, has now come back to bite us on the Bum. Hopefully a couple will be coming in - soon.

ScouseFox Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 kasper de laet, morgan, moore, konchesky albrighton/knockaert (no idea on any injury situation), drinkwater, james, riyad nugent, vardy keep going with last season. these boys can make the step up. and if they can't use the bench but i don't see why we wouldn't give them a chance. vardy/nuge partnership is a winner.

kingfox Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 If Konchesky plays we will lose 4-0. Coleman up against him, sparks a heavy loss.
Guest Mickyblueeyes Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 KS De Laet Morgan Moore Schlupp Drinkwater James Knockaert (if fit) Mahrez Ulloa Albrighton If knocky is not fit I would start Vardy with Ulloa moving in behind him.
cjslcfc Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 Schmeichel De Laet Morgan Moore Schlupp Drinkwater James Albrighton Nugent Mahrez Ulloa Depends who is available. I'd happily swap Ulloa for Vardy or Albrighton for Knockaert.
Fosse93 Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 GK. Kasper RB. De Laet CB. Morgan CB. Moore LB. Schlupp RM. Albrighton CM. James CM. Drinkwater LM. Mahrez ST. Ulloa ST. Vardy Presuming everyone is fit.

benpicko Posted 11 August 2014 Posted 11 August 2014 Guy in training ground thread said Knockaert might be alright by saturday, so I'd go with the main starting 11 of last season
