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

[Hickson9]

As is Doucoure, if I remember right.

Yep. They have both have 6 more matches to get through without picking up a yellow card.

I dont rate him much mate. LB should be played by a LB.

Thank goodness you have nothing to do with team selection. Maybe you weren't aware Godfrey did QUITE WELL at left back against Chelsea or maybe you know very little about what you are commenting on

Oh fantastico, lets not buy a LB, and ship Niels.

True but think vardy plays a bit more central though. Werner comes in from out wide. Mina and keane have shown us that troubles them.

I thought against Chelsea we dealt with everything coming through the middle, it was when the play was coming from out wide we struggled.

 

[Furey1878]

Think we should keep the same 11 barring Coleman being fit. But if Carlo is looking to rotate DCL:

Pickford
Holgate Mina Keane Godfrey
Doucoure Allan
Iwobi James Gordon
Richarlison

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

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

A win takes us 5th mate even if Southampton get beat by Arsenal because they have a better goal difference of 4, obviously that could change depending on the results of our game and their game.

Didn’t know that, cheers.

Not for me. He is riding the crest of a wave right now and needs to play. If vardy can play every week for about 5 years and is now 34 then DCL will be fine. Too much emphasis for me on players needs resting. That lot last year played so many games with many of their top players playing most minutes.

Yeah but Carlo has said he is going to rest him for one game, out of the run we have coming this is the best one to do it

​

Quick turnaround for the boys, after a tough game, lets hope we build from this point on.

COYB

Goats 11 to start :

Pickford
Godfrey - Mina - Keane - Holgate
Doucs - Iceland - Allan
Iwobi - DCL - Rico​

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Got 1-1 written all over this.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

The point is Arsenal are really bad, It's possible to beat them with DCL resting, I can't say the same for Leicester though.

DCL would have more joy against Arsenals defence than Leicesters imo.

Add in another night time kick off under the floodlights at Goodison with fans back in our chances of beating Arsenal are a lot higher than an away tie against a good Leicester side.

Would rather rotate for this one with an eye on Arsenal however I still would play a strong side for Leicester like.

 

[GwladysBlue]

I have a big dislike for Leicester. Their fans are among the worst in the league.

 

[FTY]

2-0 Leicester.

The players have done their Big Game win routine, now they revert to default setting. A shower of spineless jellyfish

Dont tell me you dont think that too.

The worst kind of jellyfish them

 

[Lad from Vienna]

This is gonna be a difficult game. We struggle against teams with lots of pace. This has Carlo Catenacchio written all over it

 

[AndyGray]

Have to go for 6 points and keep DCL on for both games, IMO.
