How do you reckon we should setup for Leicester?
I would start who began the game on saturday but with one change. Going to be controversial here and think for this game Piroe should be dropped. He maybe our best finisher but he just isn't good enough out of possession at the moment and I feel is too much of a luxury to start against a possession focused Leicester team. I Would personally start with Bamford, penalty miss aside he has looked pretty sharp in his cameos so far and his strength is holding the ball up and pressing the other teams out of possession. Although this is a massive call.
The other option I have seen is to swap Piroe for Gray and play 3 central midfielders. This would make it harder for Leicester to play through us but we are sacrificing a forward.
Thoughts?
Team for Leicester?

I think our lads can do them for sure. A draw wouldn’t be a bad night but a win, with them yet to come to us, would be awesome.
Rodon worries me though. Hopefully he’s fit because with him we look so much more steady at the back.

Rodon is the key, isn't he Stoopo?
And I have this feeling that Bamford will get the chance during the game to redeem himself. This is a very happy hunting ground for him and I could see him nicking a late winner...or should I go to specsavers?

can't see any changes from the last game, unless an injury, myself would swap rutter & piroe around.

I think effectiveness off the ball would be one good reason to bring in Bamford or play Gray as the third man in midfield.
Meslier
Shackleton Rodon. Struijk Byram
Gray. Ampadu. Kamara
James. Rutter. Summerville
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If all fit, the team that started against Huddersfield should take the field. Rodon is a doubt, maybe Ayling to slot in rather than Struijk having to move over to accommodate Cooper. Bamford does give you a little more defending from the front, but I’d stick with Piroe. Need to start well and take the game to them…draw doesn’t do much for us.

With all due respect, what an absolute load of nonsense.
Bamford is a complete spent force, how many more examples of his ineptitude & arrogance do people need?
His miss at Elland Road against Friday's opponents still makes me feel sick to the stomach.
He shouldn't wear the shirt again.

I made mistake of watching it again. Talk about a season defining moment. Ten minutes at the end of this one might be all he needs to redeem himself.

Players never miss sitters or miss penalties do they? Only Bamford it seems - as far as some are concerned.
I think I’d rather trust Farke’s judgment on wether he should wear the shirt or not!
