Is that Grealish up front on his own in the centre?  Could be interesting.

Leicester

Schmeichel (c), Ricardo, Evans, Söyüncü, Fuchs, Chilwell, Praet, Tielemans, Pérez, Maddison, Vardy

Subs: Ward, Justin, Benković, Choudhury, Albrighton, Barnes, Iheanacho

Looks like their strongest side. With Fuchs in, is Rodgers matching us formation wise?

Back to 3 at the back then.
Are we the only British club to NOT player with a striker?

You miss Man City twatting Yanited without a striker last night?


I know but struggle to compare Trezeguet with Stirling or El Ghazi with Mahrez.
Still, fingers crossed eh?

Shocked that Cam has not been given a chance as there is no Kodjia.

The Barley Mow, powered by than Moretti, is a bit more confident. Or maybe we're clattered.

El-Ghazi up front? A few on here have called to try it out in the past.

Well he's no winger so it's worth a try.

3-4-2-1 is my guess from that team selection.
I'd rather Trez up front, AEG has been awful lately in front of goal.

My hopeful hat says we have agreed a deal for Benteke and Kodija is on his way to recoup some wages.

We must be close to getting someone in upfront, next 48 hours I reckon although not much of our thinking regarding strikers has really made sense to me since Tammy got recalled so we'll see.

Kodj also been linked to Beskitas a few times in last year, we want Vida from their side so perhaps a swop deal.

Can't see what else he could have done. Must mean Kodjia will be gone very soon and a new forward will be in. The only trouble tonight is if this plan fails, the bench offers very little. Come on lads, keep it interesting for the next leg. UTV.

Chillwell will play on the left wing I think so remains 4-2-3-1.

The manager found a formation that worked and he's using it with a full side and trying something a bit different. Whatever the result he's having a go and that'll do for me.

So because we are missing the defensive might of Kodjia, we will suddenly ship a few more goals?

Chelsea and Palace have stated that won't release any forwards until replacements are signed first. I hope there's forwards incoming immediately if Kodjia is sold? We've fucked the forward choices already last August, so it'd be pretty stupid if no forward comes in first?
