    Ritchie De Laet will be out for up to 6 weeks after having an operation on his shin. Unfortunately for Liam Moore he will probably lose his place alongside Wes Morgan and get pushed out to right back. This also probably means Sean St. Ledger wont be going out on loan just yet but we still have Marcin Wasilewski and Ignasi Miquel as back up

    Relaxed about this - as you mention, in Moore and Waslewski we have excellent cover ...

    Its a shame for Liam Moore though. He has done superb and through no fault of his own he has lost his place at centre back. Wasilewski now has to take his chance like King and Drinkwater did when James got suspended

    Ritchie De Laet has cracked a bone in his shin and they didnt realise until it became infected.

    He's been very injury-prone since signing for us, could this have been a previous problem? Personally I like Moore at RB, gives us a bit more defensive solidarity, though you do lose the attacking edge that RDL has. With a bit of practice though Moore's throw-ins could be a real weapon.
