Leicester City build up thread


Bad Wolf

Recommended Posts

THEVMAN has been correct with team news for a large number of games, he clearly has a contact at the club and is reliable.

 

However true, the injury information we received prior to the last game turned out to be incorrect. Let's hope it's the same this time around :(

-------------------DAVIS----------------------

FRAEER-----MARTIN-----HOOIVELD---------FOX

CORK-----HAMMOND-----MORGAN-------FALQUE

---------------GULY-----CONNOLLY------------

 

Subs: Bart, Harding, De Ridder, Holmes, Reeves

 

 

Above is what I think it will be but I would stick De Ridder straight in for Hammond and switch Cork to centre

Cork was excellent on the right against Forest, and Hammond and Morgan were great in the middle together as well. I wouldn't change that until De Ridder is 100% fit again.

THEVMAN was correct he said the only one of the injured who was fit was Guly. SDR was on the bench despite not being fully fit.

Fox cannot play in midfield - he cant attack......

 

I don't think he's too bad in an attacking sense at all. I think we've reigned him in slightly though as Burnley fans say he bombed forward all the time, leaving his position exposed. If anything we've coached a bit more responsibility into him re: his actual position.

Swap them around then :-)

 

And Harding can??

 

what is this obsession with playing left-backs in midfield,they're not all Gareth Bale you know.

We have an adequate number of midfielders to call upon without using left backs (or right backs for that matter).

 

Cork,Hammond,Morgan,Falque(or Holmes if Falque isn't ready to start).

Who knows perhaps we've been hiding Tadanari in the coal cellar to spring on an unexpecting Leicester.:smug:

Why is everyone assuming the Spurs loanee will start....what about Reeves or Ward-Prowse?

 

Neither are wide players, where as Flaque is.

 

If we start with a midfield of Cork - Morgan - Hammond and W-P we will be frightfully narrow and it will play into Leicesters hands.

If you go back to my original post I said Falque to play on the left or failing that move Fox up and play Harding.

Its not an obsession with playing full backs in midfield, its simply called an option...thats O P T I O N, ok ?

Davis

 

Harding

Martin

Jos

Fox

 

Falque

Morgan

Hammond

Cork

 

Guly

Connolly

 

 

That team can beat Leicester City. There's two strikers there desperate to prove we don't need to spend £10m on a new one. A kid from Spurs about to become a six month all time Southampton legend. And basically the squad that have got us to the top of the league.

 

3-1 win.

He knows Adam Lallana personally based on other posts, so AL is out tomorrow.

 

Do we know Guly is fit btw?

According to the Leicester Mercury:

 

" City head to the south coast with a mounting injury list.

 

Midfielder Andy King is the latest to be sidelined, along with Darius Vassell, Martyn Waghorn, Jeff Schlupp, Matt Oakley and Frank Moussa, while Sol Bamba and John Pantsil are away on international duty at the African Cup of Nations."

 

Being on the box there should be a stream. Time to go off and see if it's on telly here in Italy: highly unlikely but it is Monday night.

Yep, it's a pretty decent side considering we have 4 first teamers out. I'm confident but hate evening games on Sky, we're usually poor.

And Yuki Abe has had his contract cancelled so he can go back to Japan.

Bit down from hearing about Lallana. Thought he was approaching his best again.

 

With it being Rickies last suspended game, Chaplow and Fonte still not fit, and being an evening game live on Sky, this match is beginning to feel like a dose of disgusting-tasting medicine, a root-canal treatment or a vasectomy to get out of the way...

Presumably you won't overreact if we lose then.

Yippee!

 

Although their web site didn't show it, the game is on Al Jism tonight. They were advertising it late last night.

 

Might mean for those without Sat access that there will be a decent stream again.

 

Now to unplug the decoder upstairs swap it with the one downstairs retune it and....

 

Oh sod that will watch it in bed!

Have woken up properly nervous today for the first time in a while, I think the break has served to make me realise how close we are and just how much I'd bloody love to see Saints back in the prem. Plus losing the last home match means that slight feeling of invincibility has gone.
I'm with you on this one!! Will be tough with how many players are missing. Not many teams will be able to cope without their best 3 players and loads of the other options ! But on the plus side, they've got a reasonably weakened team as well and we are capable of beating anyone. Hopefully the players who come in will perform as they will want to keep their place for the next game, and I'm sure Falque will want to impress on his debut if he's picked (which I am assuming he will be due to Lallana's absence). Will be a tight game I think but maybe 2-1 Saints or something along those lines.
