Got that nervous feeling for this one. Feel like it’s one where if we win then we are right in the mix for top 4. It can’t be brushed away anymore. If we lose then it’s another one of them games where we fail to grasp the opportunity in front of us. With Vardy not playing we have to do these even without Allen and Doucoure.

Maybe, but with Digne, Richy, James, Iwobi & DCL there’s no reason we still couldn’t create a lot of chances.

Get James in the middle with freedom, dropping back to get the ball and let him work his magic!

Yeh, I like it.
Maybe Gomes with one of Mason/Godfrey. Just seems very risky having two inexperienced lads in that position

Looking forward to see what Carlo does do

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.

Can't see it after he played the full 90 last game. I think that's exactly the reason why Iwobi, Digne and Keane all missed out - so that he could re-jig the formation today with fresh players.

if it was to mark one particular individual maybe Maddison. id pick Godfrey (as in thats your only job, frustrate the living hell out of him) mainly because his pace can help him recover from any missed tackle

if it was general defensive cover, with bit more quality in possession id pick Holgate, his passing wheel is much larger
 

I can’t remember the last time I had this excited/nervous anticipation leading up to a game... Maybe the FA cup game at home to Chelsea when Lukaku won it for us. It feels big, if we win this we are absolutely in contention for a top 4 finish.

Vardy will only be missed if we play high which i doubt we will.
I think they're moving away from this vardy thing. Last 7 games. 16 goals. None from vardy.
Barnes, maddison and ndidi are more of a danger.

Like Besic on Messi, World cup style!
