    Well we were really lucky at how Liverpool snatched defeat from the jaws of victory last time and need to improve massively.

    Good news is that Vardy and Fuchs are both fit - only injuries we have are James and Huth.

    Knowing Shakespeare the team will be 4-4-2 and feature the usual suspects:

    Schmeichel
    Simpson
    Morgan
    Maguire
    Fuchs
    Mahrez
    Ndidi
    King
    Albrighton
    Okazaki
    Vardy

    Okazaki just had a perfect good goal rulled out for offside.

    This looks like it isn't our day...

    Seriously how much are the officials being paid off! giving them free kicks every time they dive to the floor.

    Good time to score. Henderson is a moaning ****. Justification for the wrongly disallowed one and the goalie was dragging him back so about fair

    Strange game ... Chilwell naiive ...Kaspar could have done better with both ... Shinji had a goal incrrectly disallowed and then one incorrectly allowed ... entertaining game.

    This would be a good game for Slimani - only problem is that we need both Vardy and Okazaki on the pitch as well.

    So I stepped out for a bit again and missed 2 more goals, a missed penalty and another stonewall penalty shout.

    I think I might just turn off this game as things only seem to happen when I'm not watching.

    Can't fault the lads effort tbh, not worried as long as we keep scoring, need to offer them another pizza party <ok>

    4 losses and only 4 points from our first 6 games.

    Time to get worried?

    Time to get someone decent alongside Ndidi in the centre of midfield. We miss someone with Drinkwater's drive, energy and ability to keep the ball in tight situations.

    I don't want to be seeing King or Mahrez in the starting lineup for the next match. Gray did more in 20 minutes than Mahrez did in 70. King (apart from one great ball to Vardy) was his usual anonymous self. Simpson was very solid and Chilwell offers us pace going forward and getting back.

    Nope, don't think there were many that thought we'd be much better off after those first 6 games.

    Like i said before, while we are still scoring, theres no need to worry for me. At least we're not Palace <whistle>

    Well impressed with Mahrez, fastest I have seen him run in over a year! when he was subbed he could not get off the pitch
    quick enough, think he nearly had a sweat on.
