Maddison, Chilwell, Perreira and Soyuncu were missing that day weren't they?

Perreira and Soyuncu will miss tomorrow and Chilwell is now gone. So I don't think it'll be much different to what they had available last season, plus they now have Fofana at centre back who is better than Soyuncu anyway.

Vardy
Barnes - Maddison - Perez
Ndidi - Tielemans
Fuchs - Evans - Fofana - Justin
Schmeichel
​
Is how I assume they will line up - that's pretty much full strength bar Perreira coming in at right back and Justin moving over to left back. And Soyuncu probably replacing Evans.

What was odd is that they went with some strange 3 at the back formation last season and it just didn't suit them.
 
Bench Sissoko and his wooden legs, put Bergwijn on the stands. I want this.

Lloris
Aurier Toby Dier Reguillon
Lo Celso Højbjerg Ndombele
Bale Kane Son

This is the way.
Smogz has spoken.
 
Jose will probably make a sacrificial lamb of one player from the Liverpool game.
Here's the squad from the game July 19 last season.

All talk is cheap.

Tomorrow is bigger than Wednesday now.

Only a win will resurrect the belief.

Have to be good in every aspect and not settle if we go a goal up. We have to learn.

I just hope we get a bit more possession in this game.
You can’t win if you don’t score and you can’t score if you do not have possession.
And I wish we had understood the other truth in the last minutes of the Liverpool game .. that is, they can’t score if you have possession.

i have butterflies the way Jose wants us to play, but if kane or Bergwyn had score from their good chances we would have been in control of the match,

Rogers said at the press conference that Castagne will play.
 
Regards the pitch, has anyone heard a player talk about playing on the new surface and comparing it to playing on a standard ground? Wondering if that can tell the difference
 
It's not even about not losing anymore - we can't really afford not to win.

Whilst a draw would see us move into 2nd. It'd mean sharing that place with Everton and likely Man Utd and Man City too.

Make a statement please. Play with some actual swagger and get this job done.

There is a chance Right back Timothy Castagne will return from Injury tomorrow which probably means Fuchs will drop out & Justin will move to Left back
