Team for Tuesday

If I may move the discussion on from the sacking, what does this mean for Tuesday's team, given that Stowell is one of the old guard?

Are we likely to see an attempt to play to Vardy's strengths? Or a continuation of Claude's latest attempt using Tielemans? One of Puel's earlier efforts with Mendy and N'didi? Possibly a reversion to the last time we actually won - with the inclusion of Choudhury perhaps? Something else?

Thoughts?

Literally the same side is fine just get the ball up to Vardy quicker and look to get the 3 behind him closer.

What I’m looking for is a 4-4-1-1 with Okazaki in behind Vardy and Morgan back in the side. If we could get Simpson and Fuchs in as well that would be a bonus. The innovative idea I’m looking for us to implement here would be a cunning ploy to draw teams on to us, win back the ball and then quickly play Vardy in - maybe with a lofted ball from midfield

Jesus that's astounding
Why haven't we tried this 🤷‍♀️
Defend in numbers to help out the defence
And then try the counter attack that all the other mid table teams do,
Blackstar you've stumbled onto something here

Nah. It’s not like that idea is ever going to win you the league.

And it’s not like anyone would ever figure it out once you have won it

What a great idea. Tielemans would probably be ok to provide the lofted passes.

Kasper

Pereira Evans Maguire Chilwell

Tielemans Ndidi Maddison

Vardy Ian Barnes

I wouldn't include Maguire as an old lag. I'd expect to see Kasper and Vardy start, together with Fuchs if Chillers still isn't fit.

I suppose a football reason could be made for including Simpson to have Ricardo in his true position (instead of Ghezzal/Gray), and a somewhat less compelling replacement of Maguire by Morgan to potentially tighten the defence.

If Shinji appears that's decidedly regression.

It's interesting that you've only managed to list 6 of the old guard, shows how much we've already moved on I suppose.

Nuneaton - I think what Nev's pointing out is that we have no proven quality in the midfield.
