I'm not, we got very lucky to have some of us Evertonians there, motivating the players one step further, Goodison is always like a 12th man, i miss a full, roaring Goodison Park:(

I am with only 2000. I guess I'm finding it hard to work it out but its 1/15 of normal home fans sat spaced out. No idea how much noise that would make.

Its obviously debateable , and a personal opinion ?
I can understand your view Vardy as being pivotal to your cause , with both forward lines being class acts

However I feel this game won or lost in the midfield , to which we have two key players out , with your midfield we run the risk of being overrun

Allan and particular Doucouré were excellent signings Carlo dually bought knowing this was a key area we needed to improve , they free up Digne , and even Iwobi (who is not a favourite) improve his form
 
With vardy out it makes Carlos job to figure out a midfield that can do the job a lot easier. I think he can do it.
 

Pretty sure this is the team.

Pickford
Holgate Keane Mina
Iwobi - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Digne
Davies Gomes
James - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Richi

Yeah on reflection you're probably right. I'm just never confident of us winning without Vardy up top. Iheanacho is absolute pony and Perez isn't a natural striker. There has been some suggestion that Barnes could fill in that role but that's more of a fan suggestion than anything from the club

Oh and we're Leicester so any out of form player you throw in there will play a blinder, it's what we do

"Leicester, that"
 
Just got a feeling we’ll do it tonight. Last few games against Leicester we’ve been pretty good. If we start with the flat back 4 with Godfrey and Holgate I can’t see us conceding many especially with Vardy not plying. Then it’s just down to whether James DCL Richarlison and Iwobi can find a goal. All of them apart from Richy are in decent form. Leicester’s away form is very good but there’s no reason we can’t win this.
 

In the corresponding fixture we had injuries in midfield. Allan came off after 40mins. We was left with a midfield of Sigurdson, Gomes, Doucoure.

I get that it's a massive loss losing your two most reliable cogs in the middle, but I have faith in Ancelloti and I'm sure we'll keep the game very tight.

I'd prefer to keep the back four as Godfrey, Mina, Keane, Holgate.

Maybe Digne LM.

Every time we have had a back 3 we have come to grief so I hope not.

Need to stick to established back 4 and replace Davies with Digne.

Bet Carlo will pick Coleman.
