Match Thread Leicester City v Everton - Preview, Report and MotM Poll

[toffeejack]

agree with a pacey striker when we're playing morgan and maguire. We'll have the same worry with vardy against our centre backs mind.

Look at our bench though, looks good, compare it to spurs'

Gazzaniga (GK), Lamela, Wanyama, Walker-Peters, Llorente, Davies, Skipp.

Both teams have a fair few injuries but ours below looks arguably stronger?
Holgate, Baines, Tosun, Schneiderlin, Stekelenburg, Calvert-Lewin, Lookman

9?! i'm bloody 29 and haven't seen us win anything!

I feel your pain mate!

 

[Stutheblue]

Probably best team we could pick with whats available. Fancy us to score but can we keep Vardy out.

 

[Tubey]

That entire front four is tailor made for Sigurdsson - expecting big things from him today.

yep but the main worry for me is looking at leicester's middle two who are both more powerful than ours so will their front four get a lot more chances than ours? Maybe.

 

[kenada_blue]

One can say there will be goals in this game.

Our bench is absolutely not stronger than that. Lamela, Wanyama and Llorente would all be starters for us?

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Potential for through balls galore today, Morgan is a snail and Maguire isn't as quick as our Brazilian lad.

 

[Sy-]

Will be good to see Richarlison in an area of the pitch where they'll be too scared to kick him about

 

[Daveypefc]

Delighted he's trying it, all I ask is out the inform players in their best positions, apart from a davis/gomez and Keane/mina swap that's a great line up an we should not expect miracles to day and let this team find it's feet I.e less of the moaning please

 

[brownmola]

Gueye will need to be play really well, looking for a top performance from him.

Most them players on their bench walk into our side

Made up you said that with 15 minutes to go; it gives me ample time to throw money on the inevitable 0-0.

I think we'll sit Davies and Gana deep to frustrate them and play on the counter for the most part. We're set up for it, would be a strange decision to play any other way.

Hit Sigurdsson early, spread to the wings, get Digne particularly bombing on behind whilst Bernard plays the Pienaar role etc.

Should in theory work well.

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

That lineup tells me he’s feeling the pressure for a good result today.

2-1 to Everton!
