Daniel Amartey is the only player missing now Marc Albrighton has returned. So here is what i would go with Schmeichel Ricardo Evans Maguire Chilwell Ndidi Tielemans Albrighton Maddison Barnes Vardy Subs- Ward, Morgan, Fuchs, Mendy, Ghezzal, Gray, Iheanacho
If probably go Evans and Morgan actually... But otherwise agree - as long as Albrighton is fit enough to start
Only real question is at CB. Good problems to have though. Probably most in form Morgan and Evans but clearly the club will feel Harry needs to feel valued.... Maybe Albrighton for Gray if he can keep his crosses lower than row Z.....
If one of them can play on the right side then its Maguire and Evans for me. While Morgan has played well its more because he has been able read what's going to happen, its when its instant reaction/speed required he struggles, no one gets faster as they get past 30+
Evans played on the right with Maguire when he got sent off after 3 odd min vs Burnley - hopefully will last longer in this game. Is there anything up with Soyuncu - played the full game vs Huddersfield but wasn't even in the squad vs Newcastle.
Nice to see Soyuncu's on the bench over Morgan - Rodgers was saying that he was in his plans so this is proof. Will be interesting to see who plays on which wing - Zabaletta is experienced but lacks pace and Masuaku is pacy but lacks experience.
Another crappy half. New manager bounce aside there’s not really an improvement. Maybe we just overhype our squad. Basically Rodgers is just Puel with whiter teeth and an Irish accent isn’t he...
As an isolated match, there is definitely positives to take, away point, back at the death, most importantly Barnes’ duck over and always good to see a Vardy goal. Just frustrated as I know a lot of our fans don’t seem to want to play Europa league but I do and it is just another missed opportunity which with Watford’s win and their game in hand that is all but over now after getting a reprieve last week.
Also, Chilwell has shown he has got a good delivery into the box when he actually trusts himself to. He is normally just too reluctant to play the final ball after getting into position so just do that more regularly lad!
Stringer asked Brendan Rodgers why Wes Morgan wasnt in the squad. He travelled with the team and when he arrived at the stadium Wes got a phone call from his wife saying his child is in hospital. Brendan sent Wes home to be with his family Really hope everything is ok
