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

    No Zlatan is hurting me so how do I squeeze him in?

    DDG - Heaton
    Valencia - Stones - Massuaku - Dawson - VVD
    Hazard - Firminho - Lamela - Townsend - Redmond
    Gray - Negredo - Aguero

    2FT and 0 ITB so I will need to take a hit. Which 3 to take out?

    A. Firminho - VVD - Negredo
    B. Hazard - Negredo/Gray (no hit)
    C. (something else)

      So Gray played over 60 minutes (6), scored (24) and assisted Vokes (9) that is 39 bonus points. How can he end on 29 even after things like offside?
