Danny Drinkwater returns from suspension meaning Robert Huth is the only person missing through suspension. Matty James might be involved after Claudio Ranieri said he was fit enough to be in the Everton squad but he missed out. So here is what I would go with Schmeichel Simpson Morgan Wasilewski Fuchs Mahrez Kante King Albrighton Okazaki Vardy Subs- Schwarzer, Amartey, Chilwell, Drinkwater, Gray, Schlupp, Ulloa
... would look a bit silly having a team of reseves walk through the Chelsea guard of honour ... also we are the only team with an 8 starting our points haul ... would be nice to get 83!! ... I'd love to finish 10 points clear of the nearest chaser ... what a statement that would make ... I agree with proud's team .. can't possibly drop Kingy after that MOTM display ... and I seem to recall that he was on Chelsea's books as a youngster but they released him? ... if that's right, then another sweet touch of karma along with the Tinkerman returning to the Bridge with his Champions elect ...
He was released aged 15 - bet he would love to return to the Bridge as champion. Pity Huth is suspended - bet he would love it too. Would like to see Chilwell get his full debut - might persuade him to stay.
Drinkwater has proven over the season he deserves to start over King. Would be nice to have James on the bench to come on
... it's about grabbing your chance ... and Kingy did that and some ...I'd be amazed if Ranieri benches him after that performance... we had 33 goal attempts...best this season... and much of that was down to a cracking midfield display ...
No one is debating that but with nothing riding on the game and how King performed against Everton he deserves to keep his place King deserve the guard of honor from his former club for all he has achieved after Chelsea told him he wasnt good enough Plus King gives us what Drinkwater and Kante dont. Goals
Agree, pundits scoffed that it would be the lowest points win in history if we won it (was 75 btw), 83 points would get us to nearer to whats considered par for champions. Not that it matters though you only need more points than the guys in second place. Think King should probably keep his place, if the title wasn't already done and dusted, i would have put DD back in though. 45 mins each seems fair
Dunno people are complaining about with the number of points - the most important stat is that we have more points then anyone else this season, not previous ones. Anyway we currently have enough points to have won the league in 96/97, 97/98 & 98/99 and equalled 00/01 and 10/11 http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/...wenger-title-may-be-won-by-fewest-points.html
I'm am partly glad we'll have a decent points total to stop some of the sniping but at the end of the day they don't put the points on the trophy. It will forever have Leicester City. And that is the bit that counts
...it would also be great to finish 10 points (or more) clear of the closest 'under performing' team...
Maybe give Amartey a go alongside Morgan? What is his best position? Start Gray before Albrighton too, he's going to be dynamite in a couple of years.
Yeah I guess it depends if he can get from London to his home in Salford before 10... They can get places quickly though, maybe the owners helicopter
The curfew is 10pm to 6am, to be in his house in Salford, starts immediately and for 21 days. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-36276824 He could play Sunday but then can't attend any awards after or the parade.
