Devil 1,179 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Ole has to use this as an opportunity to rest players for the weekends big game. I'd say he will go with something like this. GK - Henderson Df - Williams - Axel T - Bailly - Telles Md - Matic - Van De Beek (If fit) - Fred FW - James - Greenwood - Martial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,367 Posted February 24, 2021 Author Administrator Share Posted February 24, 2021 @Dan with Maddison potentially out (I don't think he'll be risked), how do you think we'll line-up? Kasper Castagne - Evans - Soyuncu - Thomas Ndidi - Hamza Albrighton - Tielemans - Barnes Vardy It's a shame we have so many players out as I'm sure we'd have been resting Vardy, Barnes, Ndidi for this and still be confident of the win. Maybe Ricardo plays instead of Castagne or Albrighton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ 1,915 Posted February 24, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted February 24, 2021 I don't want Tielemans that far forward personally and think we miss him when he's not as deep, but then the problem is we have virtually nobody else who can play there, unless maybe Barnes, with Albrighton & Under on the wings. I can see him doing something a bit out of the ordinary, like a 3-4-3, Ndidi and Tielemans in midfield, Barnes, Under and Vardy front three, Ricardo and Castagne wing backs. How it actually works is another matter though. We'e stepped up a lot since Maddison's come back in this season, he's having his best season yet, I'm a bit worried it's going to be another 2 months out or something like that. We often seem to really underestimate injuries, in the media at least. I'm gonna be brutally honest and this is terrible but I don't think it's a disaster if we go out tomorrow. I don't want us to lose but there are redeeming factors to it. I just don't think we have the squad to cope with this, I can't see us going much further with this many out as well. I think the fact nobody can even go is what swings it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,367 Posted February 25, 2021 Author Administrator Share Posted February 25, 2021 We've changed quite a bit. Clearly managing the squad as best as possible and hoping for the best option of a win and also saving key players for Sunday against Arsenal. Also reckon Rodgers is hoping we get the game done so that Wilf, Youri and Vardy can avoid playing the full 90... Kasper Amartey - Evans - Soyuncu - Thomas Ndidi - Hamza Under - Tielemans - Albrighton Vardy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redcanuck 175 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 With a 4-0; all away goals lead, I don't understand why Fernandes and Wan-Bissaka aren't rested . I see Madison is out for Leciester tonight, what's his status for the weekend and midweek games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redcanuck 175 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 That was a horrid attempt of a penalty, especially for someone who has scored 16 out of 16 previous penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan 18,367 Posted February 25, 2021 Author Administrator Share Posted February 25, 2021 We've been pretty damn poor by all accounts. Very little creativity and the loss of Maddison is so clear. Youri doesn't really play the #10 role and it shows. Just not his cup of tea. We really miss our attacking full backs, too. They give us a different element of attack but it's clear to see how bad we are when they don't play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well with only 45 minutes remaining, the last thing you want is to concede an away goal against a stubborn team like Slavia Prague. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
