nufcjb Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Seeing that they have a must win against Napoli on Thursday has just given me confidence that we might even sneak a win here. A draw is the minimum that we should aim for but if Napoli ends badly for them, they'll be a bit down while we have our tails up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 I'd change the line up: Dubravka Schar Lascelles Fernandes Manquillo Shelvey Willock Lewis Joelinton Wilson ASM Need the extra protection in defence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agrre but bit harsh on Miggy. Would drop Willock though Almiron might not be defensive in the middle. Would Hayden or Longstaff or even Hendrick work better?

STM Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Don't trust Longstaff. Gives the ball away too much. Don't think Hayden is good enough. Oddly I think Hendrick could do a job but he's just not a great footballer. Stick with Willock until January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 I'd rather steer well clear of 5 at the back tbh. Think we're much worse with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this , Hendrick could do a job against an Everton , the others would just play around him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 We can definitely get something from this, would be disappointed to lose if I'm honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Vardy is on the bench for them today, Rodgers keeping him for Napoli? Might impact their XI v us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantail Breeze Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Tielemens still not even on the bench, making it unlikely he’ll start against us I’d imagine. Unless they want to risk hoying him straight back in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully some tiredness in their legs. I think we could get something. Am still on my 3-1 predictions. Nailed on this one I hope, just about to see how they perform against the shite of villa.

robbo_11 Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 If we can get some decent corners in could take advantage against them - 10 set pieces in 15 games with 10 of those games they've conceeded two at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Depends which Leicester turn up. Pretty confident we got a chance of points here, though. Just need to pressure Soyuncu in to his all to frequent mistake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantail Breeze Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Always found their supporters to be insufferable. Plus they have that awful stadium which is basically a replica of Southampton but blue. Have they binned off those clappers and music after scoring? Proper League One stuff.

They still do one and give a new one to every fan each game. 700,000 clappers a year must be class for the environment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) Personally am mates with a few Leicester fans due to being at uni in Derby, they're great lads. Going to the game with a couple of them. They don't want Rodgers gone, think he'll have this season at least before changing. Mind, they are in naff form given that squad (I know they have a few injuries) and are a shambles defensively. Tbh, it may well be a good thing that some of them want him gone. If they convincingly get done in Naples on Thursday and are knocked out of the Europa League we can try and turn the crowd. Not that I can't ever imagine that stadium getting a tad toxic as yes, they still use clappers and goal music.
