Dugout Discussion – Leicester vs Arsenal

Saturday evening comes to a conclusion at the King Power as champions Leicester go head-to-head with Arsenal.

Both sides are already playing catch-up after losing their opening matches of the season.

Claudio Ranieri welcomes back Robert Huth from suspension after conceding twice to Hull last weekend. The Foxes boss also opts to recall Shinji Okazaki and Marc Albrighton as Ahmed Musa and Demarai Gray drop to the bench. New signing Nampalys Mendy comes in for Andy King in the centre of the park.

Arsenal, meanwhile, bring in Santi Cazorla, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Granit Xhaka and Laurent Koscielny as they attempt to bounce back from Sunday’s home loss to Liverpool. Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud are deemed fit enough to take their places on the bench.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Nothing wrong with Gray expressing his opinion. Freedom of speech. He has the right to believe that if he wants. An opinion widely shared. Not like he is the only one.

      No man. Absolutely not. You'd be fine with someone being racist because of freedom of speech? No.
      It was from 2012 so I guess it has no difference for current fpl. But please. Don't go defending homophobic hate speech.

        That's the problem. It wasn't homophobic hate speech, it was just an individual expressing an opinion. And it was 4 years ago. He didn't incite any violence towards gays, just said there are a lot around here - an observation.

        It's the same as those who voted for brexit being classified as racist.

        Why cant people stop being so politically correct and let others voice an opinion?
