Dugout Discussion – Leicester vs Liverpool

23 September 2017 3161 comments

An eventful Saturday comes to its conclusion at the King Power as Leicester entertain Liverpool.

Jamie Vardy recovers from injury to lead the line for the hosts – he’s scored twice in each of his last two home outings against the Merseysiders.

The visitors’ Mo Salah has served up three sets of double-digits in four starts and will fancy his chances up against young Ben Chilwell down the hosts’ left. Only 2% have captained the Egyptian for Gameweek 6.

Roberto Firmino and Philippe Coutinho also start as the Reds look to bounce back from a pair of disappointing displays that have seen them scored just once in the last two Gameweeks.

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

    Chelsea fans, how are you feeling about facing us?

    I'm always nervous about playing Chelsea.

      We tend to do okay against you lot, but there’s always the concern it will be a cricket score if you turn it on. Can’t see a CS, that’s for sure

        I hate facing Liverpool. You guys give us so many problems. That being said I think the RC was a bit of a fig leaf, the defense was woeful and Mane has nothing to do with that. You guys probably would've scored if he was on though.

    A) Morata & £5m def
    B) Lukaku & £4.5m mid that will have to play

          I think A is more sensible purely because a 5.0 defender is probably gonna be better off than a 4.5 midfielder but yeah, Lukaku is essential IMO.

      Aguero got dropped against bournmouth and we all sold him. Then next minute he bags a hat trick and gets another double digit haul today.
      You know it could happen with Jesus.

      Give him a couple weeks IMO.

        Want Coutinho over Salah now. The .4m or so is a big difference for what will be very similar points. Salah baseline baps are very disappointing

          Im not sure it will be similar points, Coutinho better with freekicks and more potential I think.

          And what about when Mane returns? I'll be interested to bring him in instead of Salah or Coutinho.
