    Danny Drinkwater and Vincete Iborra have been ruled out. Robert Huth is close to returning but this game is probably too soon. Nampalys Mendy is back in full training. Kelechi Iheanacho is a doubt after suffering a toe injury in training. So here is what I would go with

    Schmeichel

    Simpson
    Morgan
    Maguire
    Fuchs

    Mahrez
    James
    Ndidi
    Albrighton

    Okazaki
    Vardy

    Subs- Jakupovic, Chilwell, Amartey, King, Gray, Slimani, Ulloa

    The toe injury is apparently something he had for a while - should have been picked up in his medical...

    Big game for Mahrez - play well and the position is his.

    Half-hearted and he risks staying and not starting

    Sounds like things are buggered up at the stadium though - season ticket holders have to upgrade their tickets and just got told today.

    Played a big part in both goals and always looked the class player on the field ... 3 points on the board, we're up and running. <ok>

    Much more like it from him, the feet for the first goal was reminiscent of 15/16

    Maguire, N'didi and Mahrez excellent.

    What we're people's thoughts on James? Steady but didn't do much. But the team did seem well balanced

    The ball was moved around much quicker in midfield and there were few aimless punts upfield - had a good game

    Lackluster game imo, we seemed to sink to their level and grind out the result. A few positives from the game, but nothing to get carried away by.

    We don't look good when we have large parts of the possession and are the ones who need to create something.

    Brighton looked absolutely dire tbh, they are going to get smashed against teams that actually enjoy having possession.

    Seen that two "fans" got arrested for homophobic chanting - dumb ****s will be banned at the minimum.

    Will be interesting what happens when Brighton go to the London clubs though.

    Yup - mentioned it above.

    It will be interesting what happens when they are at Anfield - not sure what the truth of it is but seen that the plan is to make a banner of Robbie Fowler when he was engaging in such "banter" with Le Saux.
