Match Thread Leicester City v Everton (Wednesday 16 December 18:00)

Leicester have played a lot of games in a short space of time. We should get a result here, but we know how this works

Playing Brighton home tomorrow night at 7.15, a game they should win as well via Amazon

 

[R.Reddington]

A win here takes us into the top 4. Time to believe blues.

Think we’re missing a couple of players for the top 4 and we’re an injury or suspension away from starting Tosun up front.
If we’re still in the mix in January and recruit 1-2 players in key positions that could change like.

They play at 7.15 tomorrow night too so not too long to recover

Personally think they have a better squad than us but those euro games are an absolute killer

 

[ForeverBlue92]

The commentary were saying Carlo wants to rest DCL over the winter period and I reckon this game we should have him on the bench with Richarlison in the middle.

Would also give Richy a better chance of bagging a goal which he desperately needs.

Pickford
Holgate Keane Mina Godfrey
Allan Doucoure
Siggurdsson
Iwobi Richarlison Gordon

Rest James and Coleman fully for Arsenal.

 

[Furey1878]

We seen a blueprint for victory against Chelsea, think we'll need a similar type of display but hopefully with a bit more quality on the break.

The only change I'd make is Coleman/Kenny for Mina, and stick Holgate at right back. We've seen Keane and Mina struggle against Vardy before.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

James instead of Gylfi if he is fit

This. But we could try him in the Number 10/CAM role. Iwobi looking good on the right hand side and tracks back well. Keep the same balance as last night.

 

[TGW89]

What happens on here if we win?

Davek changes his pic.... oh no, that's our next derby win.

I just imagine there'll be a lot of ridiculous title talk again, which will look extra daft once we dole Sheff their first W of the season - possibly with some random clogger getting his only ever goal for the club.

 

[Bob Elstone]

They’re massively overrated. Get into them.

 

[royvernon39]

Brighton is a fair side and will make Leicester work hard.

Same team, spirit and tactics for me. Gotta to take advantage of Gilfi's temporary good
form and let James fully recover.

 

[Eggs]

....Chelsea failed to exploit our weakness, playing Giroud through the middle and no conventional wingers they rarely got behind our back four. Leicester will present a sterner test, as will United in next weeks big cup game but we have a chance playing with last nights attitude and with that tempo.

 

[evertonandchelmsford]

Leicester have been taking the Europa league group stage very seriously as reflected in their results theyve still done well in the league despite a few strange home defeats.
Hopefully we can take advantage of the extra days rest from last nights game.
I’d probably swap sigurdsson for Gomes apart from that wouldn’t want to make too many changes.

Agree. Keane can cope with Vardy but Mina cant. So i would prefer Holgate in the center
