Caglar Soyuncu is waiting on a work permit to see if his transfer will go through. Nampalys Mendy is out injured as is Matty James. Jonny Evans could be available and James Maddison is fine. Harry Maguire and Jamie Vardy are in the squad. So here is what I would go with

Schmeichel

Periera
Evans
Morgan
Maguire
Chilwell

Ndidi
Iborra

Gray
Maddison

Iheanacho

Subs- Ward, Fuchs, Silva, Albrighton, Ghezzal, Diabate, Vardy
 
Depending on fitness for Evans

Schmeichel

Periera
Evans/Morgan
Maguire
Chilwell

Ndidi
Iborra
Silva

Gray
Maddison

Iheanacho

Subs- Ward, Fuchs, Evans/ Morgan, Albrighton, Ghezzal, Diabate, Vardy
 
Kasper

Pereira
Evans/Morgan
Maguire
Chilwell

Iborra
N’didi

Gray
Maddison
Albrighton

Iheanacho

Subs: Ward, Morgan/Benalouane, Fuchs, Silva, Mendy, Diabaté, Vardy

Maybe Ghezzal for Fuchs?
 
I would like to see:

Schmeichel

Morgan, Evans, Maguire

Pereira, Ndidi, Iborra, Silva, Chilwell

Maddison

Iheanacho
 
Schmeichel, Amartey, Morgan, Maguire, Chilwell, Ndidi, Silva, Pereira, Maddison, Gray, Iheanacho

Subs- Ward, Fuchs, Evans, Albrighton, Iborra, Ghezzal, Vardy
 
Leicester City XI v Man United; Schmeichel, Pereira, Maguire, Morgan, Chilwell, Gray, Amartey, Silva, Ndidi, Maddison, Iheanacho [HASHTAG]#MUNLEI[/HASHTAG]
 
Nice to see some quality delivery into the box finally from Maddison and Pereira
 
Pretty decent first half once we got going. Youd have though if one of the chances Nacho had fell to Vardy, he'd have snatched one in by now.

We are reportedly freezing Simpson out why? <doh>

Don’t get that with Simpson, he’d be as good a option as Amartey if we are playing Ricardo on the wing.
Good performance so far though, would like to see Vardy on and Ghezzal and drop Ricardo back
 
Dear Claude

Dont play Amartey at right back unless we have to. Once Soyuncu and Evans are fit and available dont play Wes

And 442 isnt our best formation anymore

Yours sincerly

Most positives than negatives imo. Vardy and Evans in for a start will make us more convincing in both final thirds. Impressed with Gray, Maddison and Chilwell (a couple of crosses aside). Ricardo looked good going forward, not so good at the back but better than Amartey

Agreed about Simpson. For 2 seasons he had a player in front of him who wouldn't cover back and left him exposed. Now, when we have Ricardo willing to track back we drop him in favour of Amartey? Feel sorry for him.

Good performances from Maddison, Gray, Ricardo and Chilwell. Adrien Silva guilty again of being too slow on the ball and getting caught in possession. Don't understand why Maddison was taken off, unless it was due to the yellow card.

Yeah I get if Ricardo is playing RB over Simpson but not Amartey. Ghezzal looked to have something based on his debut. Once he has settled in maybe Ricardo will drop to RB and Ghezzal, Maddison and Gray the 3 behind Vardy.
Maddison didn’t get a yellow (was lucky not to) so I don’t get it. I’d have taken Nacho off as the play was going through Madders
 
Good performances tonight, looked alot better on the ball with Maddison ticking things over in the middle.

Grey had a decent match, hope he can continue it rather than it being a 1 off like Everton last season.

Gotta start Vardy next week surely, a couple of chances were crying out for Vardys pace/right foot.
 
Overall a positive night but we just found out what we already know. Amartey can do a job a right back but thats it. Shouldnt even play there ahead of an actual right back

Morgan is too slow and flat footed and time to move aside to Evans, Maguire, Soyuncu and Benkovic now

Maddison first player to look decent in the number 10 role for a very long time for us.

Wilf will tackle anything that moves

Silva looked a little better but I want him to try and control games more

Ghezzal looked ok but not seen enough to judge him
 
Thought Iborra offers so much more than Silva - to have 2 bases works to let those ahead play.

Amartey was awful. Time to drop Pereira back or play Simpson.

Maddison will be a big player and will improve.

Interesting to see no Okasaki on the bench.

Think Albrighton will come in - missed his work rate.

Well done Chilwell.
