I think we all know how they’ll set up and try to stifle us with a 5-4-1 defensive wall. They won’t press the ball until we are in the last third, as they have a probably researched how teams are effective against us by just packing the edge of the box and denying us space. It seems the normal now for teams to play this way against us.
It’s up to us to vary our game. We must take our chances today. Fulham had a win the other day, let’s not give them another scalp and make our return to the top 6 any more difficult than it already looks. We MUST get back to moving the ball forward quickly and being direct. Burnley were poor but we won’t get that many v Fulham.
Mahrez will obviously play after his hat trick,he MUST know when to release the ball and when to shoot, stop being greedy!
I would love to see another 4 or 5, but sadly I think we will struggle to get more than 2.
2-0 City.
