Leicester (a) pre-match thread

[Ric]

Will be a tough game, but win it and we’d be in a very good position to secure second place. The Madrid game the following Wednesday is clearly more important though, so finding out rhythm and avoiding injuries probably more important than the actual result here.

Ederson
Walker
Fernandinho
Laporte
Mendy
Rodri
Bernardo
De Bruyne
Mahrez
Sterling
Aguero

3-1 Leicester

Going to this one, like Leicester as an away day. 1-3 city

Play the under 23’s. It makes no difference whether we finish 2nd or 3rd and we need everybody fit and ready for Madrid. I don’t believe Pep will though for whatever reason.

Ederson
Cancelo
Fernandinho
Stones
Zinchenko
Gundogan
Silva
Foden
Mahrez
Jesus
Aguero

Aguero and Fernandinho off after 60/70 minutes.

Next wednesday is more important for us, think that Kun will be rested, King Kev will play one hour, Mahrez, Zinchenko and Foden will start.

Not bothered by this one - I'd hope it'll be used to get some ring rust out of the rest of the squad.

Zero injuries to

Walker
Laporte
Either Silva
Kdb
Serge

And I'll be happy

I think we’ll draw this. One eye on the madrid game.

Walker, Mendy & Rodri will NOT start, being saved for Madrid. Cancelo, Zinchenko & Gundog will. I doubt that Raheem will be risked. Otherwise, a sound selection, Richard.

I think Mendy needs minutes to regain his form.

Agreed. It’s a case of getting as many players as possible back up to match fitness ahead of Madrid whilst protecting a few from doing too much too soon.
