Blackpool V Leicester match thread

Blackpool- Gilks, Baptiste, Broadfoot, Cathcart, Crainey, Eardley, Ferguson, Basham, Ince, M Phillips, Taylor-Fletcher

Subs- Halstead, Wabara, Angel, Gomes, Grandin, Delfouneso, Derbyshire



Leicester- Schmeichel, De Laet, Morgan, Keane, Konchesky, Marshall, Drinkwater, King, Nugent, Kane, Wood

Subs- Logan, Whitbread, Dyer, Wellens, Gallagher, Vardy, Knockaert

 

Is this 4-4-2? 4-3-3? 4-3-1-2?

 

4-3-3... I'm a bit worried.

 

4-3-3 according to Craig Shakespeare

I did put this formation out there. I think alot will rely on how Ben Marshall does as he cant go missing in midfield and neither can King

Shakespeare also called the Blackpool pitch a disgrace

 

Good idea not to play Knocky in this match. Not a pitch for his super skills, plus he looked like he needed a rest. Marshall's corners have been rubbish so far though.

Super Hull are 1-0 down.

 

With Kane here I'd love us to eventually play a 4-2-1-3 formation with Knockaert as the '1' playing just behind the front 3. Although I'd probably rather keep one of the strikers on the bench to come on later. Surprised to see Kane starting tbh, let's see why he's rated so highly!

 

3-0 down FFs

 

So is this a flat 4-3-3 without wingers?


Because I can't see Kane or Wood playing on the wing.

 

Hull 0-3 down Leicester must capitalise today. COME ON

 

Penalty to Leicester

 

Penalty to us missed. FFS.

 

Chris Wood hits the bar with the peno.

Still 0-0

 

Uurgh. Can't buy a goal at the moment.

 

FFS, we really need to win this!!

 

David Nugent off Lloyd Dyer on

 

Interesting. Switch to 4-4-2?

Would we settle for a draw to stop the run of defeats, or is it all guns blazing for the win?

 

I'll be more confident at 4-4-2!

Nugent gone off holding his neck.

 

Pen missed

 

Didn't he have a problem with that before?
