Matty James is still a few weeks away from returning. Jeff Schlupp is out until late January. Danny Drinkwater wont be risked but may return against Man City. Robert Huth returns from suspension. So here is what I would go with Schmeichel Simpson Huth Morgan Fuchs Mahrez Kante King Albrighton Okazaki Vardy Subs- Schwarzer, De Laet, Wasilewski, Inler, Dyer, Ulloa, Kramaric
Yeah, I think Huth will be in for Was. Schlupp & D´water are still out. Liverpool have Skrtel, Sturridge & Milner out as far as I can tell. Lovren looks like coming in in DEF. Yeah, if we can run their whole DEF ragged for 90 mins & keep it sorted & tight at the back we could get some thing from this game. It´s live over here too so I get to watch it on a big screen. "UTF"
Liverpool- Mignolet, Clyne, Lovren, Sakho, Moreno, Can, Henderson, Lallana, Coutinho, Firmino, Origi Subs- Bogdan, Toure, Teixeria, Randall, Lucas, Allen, Benteke Leicester- Schmeichel, Simpson, Huth, Morgan, Fuchs, Mahrez, Kante, King, Albrighton, Okazaki, Vardy Subs- Schwarzer, De Laet, Wasilewski, Inler, Dyer, Ulloa, Kramaric

'pool dominating possession as we expected but a flash of flair from Mahrez was the best goalscoring chance by far. Happy with 0-0 at HT.
Well beaten today tbf .. too many under performers ... only Kante really keeping his form ... need to bounce back from that against Cieh...
..absolutely ... but we do need to step up on that .. apart from Kante we were getting beat to every second ball ... Vards looked out of sorts and they descended on Mahrez in 3s to nullify him ... too many people dangling legs rather than taking control of it ... Albrighton the prime suspect but others too ... can't afford to do that when you are not dominating ... we were close to snatching an equaliser at the end but we would not really have deserved it on the balance of play.
Blimey, that was poor. Never got going, which is a shame because Liverpool weren't exactly brilliant. Kante is worth millions and millions. Supreme player.
Ok, I think it´s safe to post on here now. That was ****ing **** & I agree with you all about Kante. Shame the rest couldn´t be ****ed. Sloppy passing, seen far to little of the ball v an average Liverpool side to, if I´m fair & very little going forward. We can´t go on like that IF we want to get into europe & finish the season on a high.
..Claudio has commented that Vards was playing with a fever .. definitely didn't look his usual self ..also commented that Mahrez was fatigued.. let's hope both back to normal on Tuesday..
It was inveitable that we would have a performance like this - we have been playing 100% for so long without a lot of rotation so players get burnt out. Southampton are currently beating Arsenal 2-0 so we could still be top - silver lining and everything.
You lost , never lost any ground to 2nd place and you welcome Man City next game , a team who are sh:t on the road .......could have been a ton worse on a losing day for you .
Problem is that we look like we are knackered - especially Mahrez and Vardy who are the players of the season so far. Hopefully will be a good chance for Dyer and Krameric to fight for a place/put themselves in the shop window. Can we see out 2015 at the top of the league? - is not looking good tbh.
