Team V Burnley

For anyone who hasn't seen Slimani. Based on yesterday, Imagine Ulloa but a lot more aggressive, a yard of pace and he can actually control a ball

 

I thought Mee was excellent for us

 

I think that may have been Fuchs' best performance for us, he's starting to really bomb forward (admittedly he wasn't exactly tested against Scott Arfield defensively so he didn't have to worry about that part of his game) and his delivery was superb. Just a shame he couldn't get that elusive goal with that chance which went just wide in the second half, though it's surely only a matter of time. I thought he may have been under threat from Chilwell but the lad's going to have to wait a little longer to start!

 

Our front 3 linked very well yesterday, dont think its coincidence that Mahrez has had his 2 best games of the season sofar after Slimani has come in the team. Flashes of Algerian chemistry between them.

Defenders wont know what to do now, sit deep to stop Vardy and your allowing more crosses over for Slimani, sit higher up and we know what Vardy can do!

Slimami certainly carries more threat from a scoring standpoint than Okazaki, also from set pieces, its no longer a "stop Vardy, stop Leicester" mentality for the opposition.

 

Agree Wiz, we've a lot more options now. With Ranieri seeming to have the ability to change games when he puts on subs, things are looking good!

 

Team who defend deep to stop Vardy running in behind play right into Slimani and Mahrez's hand
