    Last time we played that time on a Sunday it was because we refused to play an early game after Europe. I would imagine it’s probably the same thing.

    Spurs and Chelsea are both playing at 1.30, so no idea why Utd didn't just do that as well
     
    As average as you guys have been this year, I think you’re playing the worst version of Leicester in 10 years. We are significantly worse than the team that got promoted last season.

    We weren’t great when you beat us multiple times earlier this season, however we’ve somehow done the remarkable and got significantly worse.

    We haven’t scored for 5 league games.

    Haven’t scored a home league goal since December.

    We’ve lost our last 13 league games.

    Ruud has taken 4 points since joining us. They were his first two games, which arguably we should have lost both.

    Our xG is atrocious. We’ve scored 7 league goals since RVN was appointed back in December. 6 of those were in December.

    This game should be a complete walk in the park for you.
     
    Yoro’s out so I assume Lindelof comes in for Dorgu and Mazraoui goes wide.

    Ugarte or Collyer for Casemiro possibly though the latter has played well recently.

    Same side beyond that.
     
    I'm guessing he'll go quite strong given the international break and that we've some more likely losses coming up.

    Hopefully we can put the game to bed early and bring on some of the youngsters. A few look like they've earned it.
     
    I’m delighted with 7pm to be honest. Sunday afternoon United games are always a hard sell to the missus. This way I can do the family stuff during the day and then enjoy the game guilt free in the evening.

    How’s he still in the job? Just not worth the hassle of letting him go? And how are you so bad? You blitzed the first half of the Championship, no?

    Ruud has taken 7 points, didn't he? Win at Spurs 2-1 in January. I know it's still only 7 points out of 45 points available but that win at Spurs is probably only bright spot so far. That plus 6-2 vs QPR in the Fa Cup. But no league goals scored at home since December 8th is incredibly poor. On the other hand, we've only had 2 clean sheets in all competitions since 1st day of December so it's not exactly the most secure defence you'll be playing against in this game.
     
    Not that it'll happen, but I genuinely feel that Heaven could play that left wing back position as emergency cover
     
    Think we'll see this. With Obi getting another late appearance. Cas coming on to not run Ugarte into the ground and probably Eriksen.

    Onana​

    Lindelof De Ligt Heaven​

    Mazraoui Ugarte Bruno Dalot

    Garnacho Hojlund Zirkzee​
     
    This fixture is a monthly event now.

    Could have used Dorgu, but Leicester are too shit to matter.
     
    Hope we can go into the international break equaling our longest winning EPL streak this season :lol:

    Should be battering this lot, but I expect a tight game with few shots on target by our attack. That said today could be the day for Rasmussen to nick a goal finally.

    Hope that's not true, as I've never been impressed with Dermot Mee really. He's pretty much still here as the U21 keeper at 22 because he's not as good as other academy keepers who've either been sold or loaned out because they're much better prospects and can't be hanging around playing in the U21's at 22.

    Though if Onana is only ill, and there's an international break coming up, then it's not as if one PL match means much at this stage.

    Did Bayandir just retire after the penalty shoot out? What is the nature of his injury does anyone know?

    He had a real chance to prove him self either way, but instead we get this kid.

    Maybe the wrong thread to ask this, but we always had youth keepers on the bench over Mee, so why would we start him and not them?

    Some of the better ones have either been sold or loaned out - such as Kovar and Vitek. Harrison was also loaned out and did well in non-league in the first half of the season, but has come back and he and Mee have been the sub keepers for the last few games.

    Harrison looks a much better prospect than Mee, but he's only 19 and so those 3 years more experience are a big thing at that age so can see why they'd go with Mee if they have to rather than throw Harrison in so soon. There's also the Polish keeper we signed as a free agent after he'd left Arsenal, but I'm not sure he's any better than Mee or why he's not been on the bench of late (maybe another who's injured?)

    Yeah, that's been very unfortunate timing. Just as an opportunity was opening up to get some games in the team.

    No idea what injury he's had, or when he's expected to return.

    Yeah, Graczyk is the lad we signed from Arsenal. He was on the bench not too long ago. Guess he's injured since Mee and Harrison have been on the bench for the last few games.

    Probably missed Mee on the recent benches then, so it's fair enough he gets the nod.

    Harrison has more senior experience and more experience at u21s and u18s level too.

    The only experience Mee beats him at would be an extra 3 years of sitting on a bench.

    Graczyk was on the bench for the u21s on Friday.

    Yeah, up until after the Fulham cup game, Graczyk was one of the subs (along with either Harrison or Murdock).

    The last three games have been Mee and Harrison.
