I think Morgan will be back.

The only dilemma I think Shakespeare will have will be whether to start with a containing formation of 4-1-4-1. However, I think we will need to try to link Vardy a little more with the midfield and work on holding the ball higher up the field so I imagine, as we need to score 2, it will be 'as you were' with Okazaki in behind in a 442.

Mahrez, please step it up, because we will need that luxury to be an imperative in this match.

Yes im a bit doubtful,worried,concerned, as well,
Maybe because of their pedigree !
But Foxes never quit#!
And we are still in for the next 90 minutes.

So scores
If they win the game we are out.
If we draw we are out.
So we have to win
1-0= 1-1 so extra time/ penalties
2 (+) -0 = we are in the semi finals
But if they score 1 goal
We have to win the match by ??
Not only will they shut up shop and play us on the counter whilst we are looking for goals,
2-1 = out on away goals
Win by +2 we in semi-finals
3-1,4-2
If its anything like
2-1 and city doing all the attacking
I will need the para medics in the house
This is our year all good things come in trilogies!

2014/15 The great escape
2015/16 I Claudio
2016/17 Return of the king

Seems to be that people think I am anti refs.Not true.
Have both praised and criticised in past.Speak as I find.Dean was one of our best refs, now he seems poor.Inconsistent yesterday ,and Bentekes goal was a clear foul.
Too many games now decided by performance of officials.
Last two pens against us ,clearly not penalties.
Too many errors, too much dishonesty(moss) and no obvious accountability.
Now we have Stroud and two off his team ,not knowing the laws of the game.
Sorry if it appears I am anti refs, but can anyone honestly say they are getting better?

Seems to me the line-up on Tuesday will be:

Schmeichel
Simpson Morgan Benalouane Fuchs
Mahrez Ndidi Drinkwater Albrighton
Okazaki Vardy

Shame we won't have Slimani as an option, but he does seem to pick up these regular injuries.

As for refereeing, let's just say I'm not looking forward to seeing the quality of officiating in the CL on Tuesday.

Our fans have to put serious pressure on the referee and make him feel uncomfortable,
Just like all the big clubs do !

Even CS was not sure it was a foul it looked it but had it been Huff at the other end what would we have said.
The ref has to decide did the defender make a back or not try and jump. Depite what Cardy said the striker did not us him as leverage just leap straight over him.

Now brace your selves if kasper had come for it and the striker had made any contact with him it would of been a foul on the Keeper given the protection they are given these day's.

I thought the ref had a reasonable game and did not find myself screaming at the TV at him just my mate Kasper standing there watching his dad wouldn't have.

As for Tuesday we can't afford to give you know who the room we gave him first half but in stopping him we have to play one up front? do we drop the undropable Marhez and bring him on second half or one up front.

Not an easy one

Atletico will do us I think - they're very streetwise at this level and superb defensively. Without huth I do fear for us because he organises so well and Morgan without him looks shaky.

They are superb on the counter and I think sadly that penalty decision has done us......

Shut up about refs

Not a foul according to Lamps and Shearer and Gary didn't disagree - but they would say that wouldn't they? I'd like to know what opinion Keown or Murphy would have had.

BS - re your name change, you remember what happened when Keegan lost it with that saying don't you?

I think if it had been the other way round it wouldn't have been allowed and everyone would have been going on about how lucky we were. Huth gets pulled up for that for way less every week.

You've seen them given as fouls and goals so I don't know if it was or not, there's just too much inconsistency.
