    After beating Derby last week there wont be too many changes to the team unless Nigel choices to change the formation again. Chris Wood could lose his place in the team to either Anthony Knockaert or a defender with Nigel changing the formation. Sean St. Ledger is the only absense. So here is what I would play

    Schmeichel

    De Laet
    Moore
    Morgan
    Schlupp

    King
    James
    Drinkwater

    Nugent
    Wood
    Vardy

    Subs- Logan, Miquel, Bakoyogo, Dyer, Marshall, Knockaert, Waghorn

    I'm not a fan of the 4-3-3, but think we might stick with it at home, as it's the most attacking of the formations we've played so far.

    What I would play:

    Schmeichel

    Schlupp
    Miquel
    Morgan
    Moore
    De Laet

    James
    King

    Knockaert

    Vardy
    Nugent

    Subs: Logan, Whitbread, Bakayogo, Marshall, Drinkwater, Waghorn, Wood


    However I think Nige will probably play a team very similar to Proud's, with perhaps one of the strikers or one of the CMs making way for Knockaert.

    Don't change a winning team (although I would like to see Bakayogo in a 3-5-2 and also Schlupp given a chance up front)

    Moore
    Morgan
    Whitbread
    Schlupp

    James
    King
    Knockaert

    Wood

    If indeed he does revert formation, I'd agree with this ...

    Well that was close. Just got back from the game basically NP does has a plan B bring on 2 wingers. Playing Vardy, Wood and Nugent up front just doesn't work. Another disappointing game from an inept referee missed one clear penalty but gave one that wasn't still who cares 2nd in the league let's now press on from here. Certainly impressed so far with Vardy looks like he has finally found his feet this season. Looking forward now to a trip down to Charlton next week now.

    We should have had a peno for the foul on Matty James. Clear as day

    And then the peno for the foul and Lloyd Dyer was laughable. Their centre half clearly took the ball

    @liammoore93: Just like to say the "he's one of our own" chant at the end of the game gave me goose bumps &#55357;&#56396;&#10084;thanks #lcfc fans x

    Another quality performance from Liam. He stepped into Wes's shoes superbly

    Agreed although again he showed a lack of experience a few times today.

    He needs to learn to play the simple pass, too.

    He just lumped it up the field several times.


    In terms of defending though, he's ****ing superb. For a fairly small (in height, he's obviously built like a brick ****house) man he has one hell of a jump.

    He can only get better and he's already good.
