Monday, Friday, Monday. Can see there being changes for the Leicester game before Brentford 3 days later (gakpo will be available for that one)

Brentford is the away game so we have to be stronger there.

you could be right, I suspect Elliott at rcm, konate needs to get back in, tsimikas?? it'll be interesting to see how **** we think Leicester are I guess.

the Brentford game is the big hurdle and then it's FA Cup which we will likely throw.
 
On where Gakpo will be 'best utilised'...
The position he played most often is obviously the left wing, that's clear. But he can play different positions. He played for Holland different positions, he played for Eindhoven different positions, so that's all fine. He can play all four positions up front whatever you play. If you play 4-2-3-1, he can play all four positions. If you play 4-3-3, he can play the winger. In 4-4-2, he can play the wing and the striker position. So there's so many things he can play. But he's still very young.

"Can play" isn't the same as "best played in".

I hope we haven't brought in someone to play midfield who is better suited to an attacking role.
 
Chelsea friend actually compared Nunez to Drogba first season. Physically imposing and erratic, but missed a lot.

Leicester have not sacked Rodgers when the perfect long break enabled them to replace him with a new manager, make transfer plans and have a good time with players to prepare.

it'd be the height of idiocy to sack now after 2 bad results.
