Chris Wood returns from injury and is available. Sean St. Ledger is still out so its pretty much a fully fit and available squad. Quite a few players was rested against Stoke and they will return. So here is what I would go with Schmeichel De Laet Moore Morgan Konchesky Knockaert Drinkwater James Dyer Nugent Vardy Subs- Logan, Wasilewski, King, Hammond, Schlupp, Taylor-Fletcher, Wood
Derby looked pretty good Vs Chelsea, I'm looking forward to this game. They don't travel well to the King Power though? Ideal result would be an ill tempered 0-0, with lots of reds, lots of injuries...and an outbreak of pie poisoning in the stands for maximum demoralisation. *lightning strike or two wouldn't go amiss either
If anyone picks a team, and genuinely means it, other than that starting line up then i will eat one of my own bollocks.
well seasoned, thinly sliced and sauteed in butter............................ I'd play King instead of James
First proper test for a while. I reckon Maclaren will have Pearson over a barel. Make no mistake, Steve M is a top top manager and won leagues all over Europe. I wish you well guys (honestly) and would rather you beat Derby as they are currently the biggest threat in this league. Im going to watch this with interest. do you guys get live streams for your games or do you have any other media that you watch the game on ? Good luck ..although Grifters post seems good too....
Come come Queenie, must do better if you are trying to wind .... Derby are not currently the biggest threat in this league ... we are ... the table doesn't lie and we have won four out of our last five including games against your lot and Burnley ... indeed we won at yours when nobody else had even scored there this season ... so we are the biggest threat to all right now ... Now as to McLaren 'having' Pearson I'm confused ... did you mean over a bagel (inferring breakfast after a romantic interlude?) or barrel (inferring a less than romantic tryst in a dark cellar?) ... having seen Stevie's somewhat careful care of that little ginger tuft I suspect that the stone monolith that is Nigel Pearson will be doing most of the having in that liaison ...
Derbys bubble has to burst eventually, although Man City did us the world of good, lets hope they havn't taken any lessons from Chelsea, apart from getting booked for diving
Team does pretty much pick itself, but it was a different team that came away from Millwall with all three points.
So rotating the squad for Stoke was once again a masterstroke by Nigel. He can't do no wrong at the minute
