I’m hoping the manager is starting to realise just sitting back and hoping the other team doesn’t score isn’t really working and a more attacking formation would be most welcome, thing is we don’t have the strikers to actually try this radical approach so I guess it will be all out Alamo again, those that make the trip I salute you .

Ryan
Montoya
Duffy
Dunk ( if fit)
Bernardo
March
Stephens
Propper
Izquierdo
Gross
Murray

Button
Bong
Balogun
Bruno
Kayal
Gyokeres
God knows

Gross

Back to basics, although Propper worries me in games like this. Stick him on the half way line when we're defending corners.

This is probably our best line up and formation even when everyone is available. I'd love to see it happen

The most curious thing..
For me, we have to play:

Haggerty F,
Haggerty R, Tomkins, Noble, Carrick,
Dobson, Dewhurst, Crapper, McIntyre,
Treadmore, Davitt.
Eight - One.

Eight - Bloody - One.....

What I would like to see:


Ryan
Montoya - Duffy - Dunk - Bernado
Propper - Stephens
March - Bissouma - Jose
Murray

That's what I'd like to see too, and think we might get it, although it will probably be a slightly different formation to what you suggest -- more 433, as we've been playing of late.

It feels like most of the teams people are suggesting are actually quite conventional.

Dunks doubtful apparently, any idea why ?

Dunk missed out on the Derby game because of a calf problem. Hughton said, like Murray it was "slight" .
There was no indication that either of them wouldn't be fit for Leicester. There's a press conference tomorrow where it will be confirmed (one way or the other).

Just wouldn't have Gross in the team at the moment so out of form

With a 13 man team (well, three men, two flowerpot men, and some firemen) we would be in****ingvincible. Fact.

Oh yes, it's true... Funnily enough I've started reading them (again) recently with my 7 year old daughter - who loves them. Currently we're running around the desert of skulls in the classic Temple of Terror. They're great retro fun.

If he's been back for two weeks, Jose HAS to be on the bench at least tomorrow. I'd go with (Provided everyone's fit) :

Ryan
Bruno Duffy Dunk Bernardo
Knockaert Stephens Bissouma Propper March
Murray

Bench: Button, Burn, Montoya, Kayal, Gross, Izquierdo , Locadia
