If we deploy the same team as against West Ham, it leaves four outfield players (VVD, Romeu, Tadic, Redmond) who featured heavily in the game last night. If Puel wants to rotate and rest some of them, who are the alternatives? Obviously Tadic was meant to be rested as well, so imagine he was in the plans for Sunday.

 

If Boufal is due to return soon, perhaps Puel is thinking that Tadic and Redmond will have a bit more rotation in the coming months, so can be pushed a bit harder at the moment.

Pretty much the first team will be back for this. We need to start climbing back up the league. Could go 7th is results go our way and slip down about 6 places if they don't. Leicester are struggling with the Champions tag and not having Kante shielding the defence, they are there for the taking in my opinion and I think we'll win 1-2.

 

My Team

 

--------------------Forster----------------------

 

Cedric------VvD-----------Fonte-------Bertrand

 

--------------------Romeu-----------------------

 

---------Hojbjerg-------------Davis--------------

 

--------------------Tadic--------------------------

 

---------Redmond--------Austin-----------------

 

Obviously the shape of the side changes but that would be my 11.

I see on foxestalk they reckon our boys at still in Israel after their flight was delayed......

 

Yes was on SSN earlier when the crucifixion of Eric Black was in flow but no-one about. Shimon Perez funeral caused chaos not back to Bournemouth until tonight.

Reckon that will screw us then. Even though we've kept some players back a 6000 mile round trip with delays and such like just isn't good preparation for this game. Think it will catch up with us.

Same as last week for me too:

 

---------Forster----------

Cedric Fonte Virgil Bertrand

----------Romeu-----------

-----Hojbjerg---Davis-----

----------Tadic-----------

------Austin Redmond------

Last game before the international break.................put out our strongest side and let the players be tired for their countries

 

This.

 

I think we'll beat this current Leicester this time round. Or at the very least get a point.

Confident of a win.

I'm not sure we will control Slimani he is a beast. Watched him during week and looks hard to play against.

they had an extra days rest, were at home. We were miles away

 

going to be a good game

 

Two days isn't it as they played Tuesday?

 

Saying that, it looks as if they played their first team so at least we have rested a couple of first teamers.

 

Sunday will be the last game I attend this season before going back to Australia- the other 4 games I've been to have been our 4 wins, so hopefully my luck continues!

I would have thought it would make sense to fly straight to the nearest available airport to Leicester today then stay in Leicester Fri and Sat night.

 

Presumably we are travelling up to Leicester tomorrow anyway so it seems a bit pointless to go back "home" for an evening and cuts out the travel time / fatigue from Saturday.

 

I'm sure the club knows best anyway!

Do you remember we flew up on the day of a game once Leeds?? Were totally flat on that one.

Probably take longer driving up A34 than Israel flight

He does look impressive. They have some nice striker options:

 

- Vardy

- Slimani

- Musa

- Okazaki

- Ulloa

 

They've got something their for just about any option you'd want. Pace / Heading / Graft / Power.

That definitely should be the line up. I'd take a draw on Sunday too.

We seem to have a consensus. But are we allowed to field the same starting line-up for two games in a row. ;)

 

[League games, that is!]

It's a flight and a coach journey, not the Paris Dakar rally. 5 hours on what will basically be a business class private jet, drinking orange juice and watching Game of Thrones on an iPad shouldn't take that much out of them.

.... but they're delicate little souls ... what if they've already seen Game of Thrones ?

Worth watching again so have a chance of remembering who's who. There's always Entourage as well

Be interesting to see the team he picks.

 

Team were due back at Bournemouth at 5pm yesterday. Didn't land until 9pm. In for training this morning before leaving for Leicester. Essentially no rest time for vvd, Redmond etc.

I didn't say it was an arduous journey. Simply that I couldn't see the point in going home on Friday only to set off again on Sat. Maybe try to think about what you're reading in the future.

Because, you know, they live there and stuff. Are they really going to feel better for spending 2 nights in a hotel in Leicester?

If St George's park was available, that might have made sense.

Other half is sick -I have a spare PM me if interested - I will be at the ground from about 1

 

Shouldn't you be staying at home to comfort and care for her ?

:):)

I'd still have taken a night in my own home TBH, with my loved ones and creature comforts I'd find it much easier to relax. Leicester's not all that far really, either.

We're limited by the injuries to J Rod and Boufal to an extent, I'd go with the same team who started at the London Mortuary last week.

 

lol

Leicester have also had a tough midweek game, so I don't think we need to fear.
