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

    So, going to wildcard after next week, so no point in saving a ft. Should I just do Mendy -> Jones tonight, and catch his rise? Will probably keep him on wc next week.

        But he's now not priced any more than Lukaku, Kane, Aguero. Yeah, there are better alternatives in midfield in the 9m range, but Morata has pretty much made one of the front three spots his own. That can save 1.5-2m.

            Yeah, for sure. It's a wait and watch as yet. But Welbeck is out and he could just slot right in for Welbeck. That's a forward like role even though he is not a lone striker. I'm just biased also towards players who just look to shoot the first chance they get.
