[Albion] All Change For Leicester

Hugo Rune · Jun 21, 2020

I think Potter’s squad, starting 11 & formation for Leicester had already been set, long before kick-off today.

I think Potter’s going to be shuffling the squad a lot with games coming so fast.

I’ve just got a feeling that we might try and mirror Leicester in terms of youth and pace?

Lamptey—Bissouma-Pröpper—Bernardo

I like it but really worry about that Dunk suspension - it would be a travesty if he missed Norwich

Agreed, really wouldn't be the end of days if we lost at Leicester and Dunky had a game off.

Isn't Burn suspended? If not, I'd agree with your back three - if he is suspended:
————————Ryan————————
———Webster—Duffy-----Dunk

Agree Lamptey and Bernardo at wing back, but centre midfield:
Lamptey—-----------------------------------—Bernardo

Stephens-----------------Alzate

Isn't Burn suspended? If so, I'd go for:
.............Webster-----Duffy-----Dunk

Wingbacks/midfield, I'd go for:
Lamptey------------------------------------------Bernardo
---------------Stephens------Alzate

Tough on Bissiuma; I'd call it rotation to keep him on side .................................

Front three - yes I'd try those three, same as you.

nickjhs · Jun 21, 2020

I am really excited about Mac Allister, Maupay and Connolly, along with Propper. That goal was intelligent, skilful team work. Pure class

GingerBeerMan · Jun 21, 2020

Why did Potter abandon 3 at the back?

No he’s not - it was just another poor star caption by BT sport. The 5 yellows amnesty was 19th Match week.

No.

The deadline by which 5 yellows would have resulted in a ban was gameday 19.....which was the Tottenham game on Boxing Day.

Is Bernardo injured? He wasn't even on the nine man bench yesterday, we had two right backs there instead.

God knows what Potter will do against Leicester. Seems to me that we're a team that is at its most dangerous in the last 20 minutes or so. Time and again we have players that come off the bench and make a big impact but when they start don't have anywhere near as much influence on the game. With that in mind I'd be tempted to keep some serious attacking threats on the bench so I'd be tempted to have Trossard, MacAllister and Connolly as subs.

If he's fit I'd try and get Alzate involved (centrally) somehow too.

So something like:

Ryan

Montoya Webster Dunk Burn

Propper Bissouma Alzate/Stephens

Mooy

Maupay Murray

Bench: Button, Duffy, Bernardo, March, MacAllister, Stephens/Alzate, Trossard, Connolly

Gross or Schelloto/Lamptey for the last bench spot. Probably one of the rb's.

Is that right? That’s poor by BT.

One Teddy Maybank · Jun 21, 2020

Think we’ll mix it up a little

Ryan
Montoya
Dunk
Webster
Burn

Lamptey
Stephens
Propper
March

MacAllister
Maupay or Murray

I wondered this. Alzate too.

They’ve been dropping hints about Alzate for a while. He had an operation so need to be careful with his return etc etc

This but Duffy for the suspended Burn and Alzate for Propper.

Yes, I’d heard something along these lines. Just googled it. Turns out he hasn’t had an op:

“ Steven Alzate still requires minor surgery on a groin problem.

The operation was put back after he reported coronavirus-like symptoms and has remained on hold with medical resources required for more pressing matters.

Technical director Dan Ashworth said: “He has got a slight niggle if you like that at some stage would need a small amount of surgery. But it’s manageable. He can play.

“Normally when you have a break of this length, he would go in for a really minor operation.”

Agree with the general consensus that 3-5-2/3-4-1-1/5-2-1-2 or whatever you want to call it is the way to go here.

Love the way some of our usually intelligent posters are having a crack at 'guess the Potter team', one game after a three month break. I couldn't even have guessed that Bernardo and Jahanbaksh wouldn't be in a squad of 18 against Arsenal. :facepalm:

WilburySeagull · Jun 21, 2020

The absence of Ali J has got me wondering if he was one of our positive tests originally and has not properly recovered yet. Pure speculation on my part of course and hopefully completely wrong.

Live by the sea · Jun 21, 2020

I agree may try to mirror Leicester . Looking at results yesterday , I know it’s very possible to still get some unexpected results but I do feel 37 points with the best GD maybe enough . So one more win and 2 draws !
