Spicer Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Schwarzer (although I wouldn't complain having Hamer) Simpson Wasyl Morgan De Laet Albrighton James Hammond Schlupp Kramaric Ulloa I went for James and Hammond in the centre as we will not be playing with the ball in large periods and, in my opinion, they are more solid defensively which could allow slightly more freedom to those in front. I hope Van Gaal continues with the 3-5-2 as we could exploit the space out wide.
The Year Of The Fox Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Is Knocky injured? No he always runs like that
jonthefox Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Making a weekend out of this one. As for the game? A good old fashioned mullering unfortunatley.

justfoxes Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 A hearty performance by the foxes utd still having cold sweats over our performance in September ! So I'm going for a tight game and a cheeky 0-1 for the Leicester Kramaric to score a screamer !! COME ON YOU FOXES
VinceNoir Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Going for a 2-2 here. I'll be in Manchester for my brother's stag do this weekend so hoping to find a decent place that serves decent beer as we couldn't get tickets. Any Manchester foxes doing the same? Ideally a good man city pub and get them all on our side before they play chelsea.
Dickov22 Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Plenty of pace in our side and we have a chance. We've surely got to go with 3 centre mids too: Hamer Simpson Wasilewski Morgan De Laet Hammond Cambiasso Drinkwater Schlupp Kramaric Ulloa Shame Matty James isn't available. For me he's our strongest central midfielder
reynard Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Anything positive at all from this match would be a massive bonus. Be very surprised if it was 0-0 but delighted. They will be very motivated to win this and I fear they will. If we can avoid losing by more than 2 goals then at least our goal difference won't be too badly affected. We have a truly awful record there over the years and I'm afraid I can't really see that changing.
Ric Flair Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Hamer Simpson Wasyl Morgan De Laet (but it'll be Konchesky) Drinkwater Hammond Cambiasso Kramaric Ulloa Schlupp 1-1 draw
Spicer Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Isnt James still suspended? Sure he still has 1 more match I thought Spurs was the third match. My bad.
LCCFox96 Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Back four and up top surely must be the same from Spurs. Likewise Schlupp's form dictates he's one of the first names on the team sheet nowadays. Biggest issues are deciding on Hamer or Schwarzer in goal (I wouldn't mind either way) and getting the central midfield combination right. I think he'll start: Hamer Simpson, Wasilewski, Morgan, De Laet Knockaert, Cambiasso, Drinkwater, Schlupp Ulloa, Kramaric Their defence is still vulnerable so we should attack as we did in the reverse fixture! CM partnership of Drinkwater, who will probably pumped for playing United which should spur him on to his best game, and Cambiasso to control and dictate our play, again like the reverse fixture. If Hammond is fit, throwing him in would be good to add some aggression to our midfield too. If they can give Ulloa and Kramaric some service I'm confident we now have two strikers who get into good positions and can finish the chances that come their way. Any points from Old Trafford would be great but a win is far from beyond the realms of possibility.
thybluefox Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 I'd go for Schwarzer, distribution and experience is key in this one I think. Probably harsh on Hamer, and I probably expect him to be back in. We need Schlupp and Albrighton for me too, we've got to be direct when we're attacking. Drinkwater and Cambiasso in midfield - or I'd even go Hammond & Cambiasso and then just let the the front 4 (with Krama behind Ulloa) get forward with those 2 holding.
Jazzy_Jeff Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Hamer Simpson Wes Was De Laet Hammond Cambiasso Albrighton Kramaric Schlupp Ulloa Subs: Schwarzer, Konchesky, Moore (if fit), Drinkwater, King, Vardy, Nugent
Xen Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Hamer Simpson Wes Was De Laet Hammond Cambiasso Albrighton Kramaric Schlupp Ulloa Subs: Schwarzer, Konchesky, Moore (if fit), Drinkwater, King, Vardy, Nugent Hoping for this. Perhaps swap the keepers, but otherwise this is our best lineup with James and mahrez out. Speaking of mahrez, if Algeria go out after their next match, will he be back in time for this? I doubt he'd be fit enough to stay given the extra fixture he's played and the travelling, but he could be okay to sit on the bench as another option?
Countesthorpe Fox 1884 Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Martin Atkinson will ref the game on Saturday, not the best imo made a couple shockers at west ham
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Just back from Stonehenge, where I have been casting the runes. I don't want to ruin your day guys, so I will stay silent.
shade Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 I had a dream that leicester city would beat man utd 2-0 at old trafford, it's happening. not quite MLK.
FoxinNotts Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 I think we need two banks of four defending in this one, with the ability to counter at pace. Good keeper distribution also required. Schwarzer Simpson Wasilewski Morgan Konch Delaet Cambiasso Hammond Schlupp Kramaric Vardy
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 I had a dream that leicester city would beat man utd 2-0 at old trafford, it's happening. not quite MLK. Well, some dreams come true.
benpicko Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Hamer Simpson - Was - Morgan - de Laet Albrighton - Drinkwater - Cambiasso - Schlupp Kramarić Ulloa

Guest MattP Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Given his performance against them earlier this year I just can't not play Vardy. Hamer Simpson Wes Was RDL Hammond Cambiasso Schulpp Vardy Kramaric Ulloa
