Leicester (a) Carabao Cup QF pre-match thread

[Clercqs]

Surely means that Nmecha will be on the bench?

And no Otamendi or De Bruyne.

I think we all may need to lace up in a few hours

So at a guess it's looking like:

-------------------------Bravo
Danilo-----Adarabioyo-----Mangala-----Zinchenko
-----------------------Gundogan
-------------Bernardo----------Foden/Yaya
Sane--------------------Jesus------------------Diaz/Foden

All of a sudden I'm not that confident. Hope to be proved wrong though.

It will be a similar side to the one we put out against Shakthar.

Only difference being is Zinchenko will be in for Delph.

I would guess something like that. Although I would expect Yaya to feature over Gundogan.

That will be the team but with Yaya in there I reckon.

I can’t see Pep starting both Foden and Diaz.

I actually forgot about Yaya, won't make us that much stronger if at all, like you say he will probably replace Diaz or Foden.

[jay laruja]

So no Ota, Aguero, Silva, De Bruyne and Sterling for this one.

I would rather play a full team tonight and rest a few on Saturday. Lets face facts - we look like we are going to win the league. If we throw this you can see United boring their way to a League Cup win. Then if they fluke the FA Cup (not inconceivable) and we don't win the Champions League (lets be realistic, even as favourites we probably won't) we could easy finish with one trophy and Utd have 2. Yes, we have the bigger trophy but it is so easy to end 2 seasons with 1 trophy to their 4, and as much as ours would be the best one it still doesn't sit easily with me that in our period of dominance (that I have waited the best part of 50 years for) we end up possibly winning less than them during that time frame
