If everyone is up the pitch we are a lot less likely to give away any corners. Kasper . . F*!king no one . . . Hamza, Wilf, Mendy, Maddison, KDH Barnes, Vardy, Nacho, Daka, Lookman Put the bench on the goal line if they will let us, the subs can stand at the side of the pitch. I think you've put more thought into solving our defensive problems thsn the entire coaching staff at LCFC! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have thought about this a lot but there is a flaw in your thinking. Mendy is not in the squad. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Fox Posted 5 December 2021 Share Posted 5 December 2021 Two strikers upfront Brendan I know it’s a Novel idea but gives us more chance of winning the game.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakemoore Posted 5 December 2021 Share Posted 5 December 2021 Do I get up and get going on my way to villa park? Or do I accept that we’ll probably lose and just watch it on the tele? 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluetintedspecs Posted 5 December 2021 Share Posted 5 December 2021 (edited) Can see KDH for Soumare and possibly Albrighton for Lookman today. Vards will be down to how he's feeling energy wise! If Madders is fit I can see the tweaks help us edge the win. COYB Edited 5 December 2021 by Bluetintedspecs Dyslexic moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Thefoxman Posted 5 December 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 5 December 2021 Morning all, a mate of mine is running from the kingpower to villa Park today to raise money and in memory of his brother in law who died from covid. Please give him a top reseption as he does the last part around the pitch. Unreal effort from him to run that far and raise alot of money. He is a massive lcfc fan and his brother in law was a massive villa fan so a real emotional day 💙💙 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haywood_6 Posted 5 December 2021 Share Posted 5 December 2021 The only change I think Brendan should make is Soumare for KDH. Something tells me he might rest Vardy though as we've had 3 games in a week. If we can get Maddison involved in the final third of the pitch. He'll unlock any defence in current form. I'm going for a 1-2 away win... but it's more hope than belief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's one of the worse for it. Never known anyone with such bad footwork & distribution be so keen to play around with silly little passes. Then, when he does decide to get it up field, he's completely incapable of keeping the ball on the pitch! . .Kasper like most keepers fancy themselves as outfield players!!! He is quite good technically and before he changed his style regarding distribution was very accurate in finding his teammates with long very accurate passes!!! He has altered aspects of his game and it may have been in order to gel with the players around him. Previous he would bowl the ball out to the outfieder to start an attack, and I would like to see him to that more. The only problem is we do not look to break on teams as we used to. Not coming for crosses now but he was very much a keeper that punched the ball when crosses came in. He could uncannily find a colleague who was standing on the touchline just inside our half, by kicking from hand, he used to have a good understanding with Chilwell. The kicking the ball out of play is something that irritates the supporters and sometimes he gets it right but the good ones are far outweighed by the poor ones that he does.

adejo92 Posted 5 December 2021 Share Posted 5 December 2021 1 hour ago, Matt said: But i'll the question again. Why do we do it? I'm sorry but it doesn't draw the opposition out, i've never heard so much bullshit in my life, opposition couldn't be happier to let us piss about with it ultimately waiting for us to making a mistake. We all know we stink at it, not to mention it gets us no where and is incredibly dull and boring. And lastly, you should be looking to get the best out of your players, we're not. Completely agree mate. I wouldn't trust this bunch to play around at the back if we were winning comfortably. The fact that we often do it when we are desperate for a goal is beyond me. I'd love nothing more for us to win today but unfortunately I can't see it. Might bet my first born child for Mings to score from a set piece.

Kasper used to be one of the best for starting our counter attacks. His long throws and long kicks out of his hand were often flawless. Unfortunately, this starting out from the back is just not for him, nor our defence as a whole. Its dangerous, scary and counter productive.

True, but the players know what's needed and if they are unable to do it , that's down to them. It shows they are being outplayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corky Posted 5 December 2021 Share Posted 5 December 2021 If you offered Schmeichel the chance to bin playing out from the back I think he'd snap your hand off. He doesn't seem to like it and makes his distribution, which used to be good, look a lot worse. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
