Gotta be 4-2-3-1 surely.
I see that Freuler was outstanding for Switzerland in Spain last night.

Thats good to see, shows he hasnt suddenly lost his ability. He clearly has to be a decent player from his past experience but he was a complete waste of a shirt in his 60 mins. vs Fulham

We have been extremely lucky, with Henderson making a lot of saves, our defence has been awful.
We should really be on 0 points if anyone is honest and really looks at performance, missed shots by opposition players and Henderson saves.
So this game with Fester has to be the start of something new - if nothing changes and we lose again and play awful then I think something big has to change.
I hope Cooper changes to 4 at the back, we pack the midfield and we control the game and win. That has to be the only outcome.
Agree with that about the season so far. Think we were worth a point against Bournemouth when we got none but thats it. People didnt want to hear that we were poor in those first few games too.
I would try a formation change too but I worry there a re problems all over, ball isnt held up front, defence looks weak and disjointed, that wont change with an extra man in midfield.
It really is down to Cooper to get the best out of this team. We are weak on paper even if everyone is playing to the best of their ability, when they arent and are making mistakes too we have a problem.

I think we were good for a point against Everton and arguably vs Spurs too

If the following are all fit and available then I want to see this:
4-2-3-1
Henderson
Aurier
Worrall
Niakhate
Lodi
Mangala
Freuler
Johnson
Lingard
MGW
Awoniyi

Going purely on what those players have achieved career to date I agree that on paper that looks our strongest team.
Reality I think that midfield gets completely muscled out and overrrun.

There is zero chance Niakhate can play without any minutes for 6 + weeks into the high intensity league this is. He would be injured again for another 6 weeks.
Wondering if Mangala has had more of a set back as he wasn’t training last week.
If we play 4 at the back then for me it is
Henderson
Aurier
Worrall
Bade
Lodi
Freuler
Mangala
LOB
MGW
Johnson
Awoniyi

That is why I said if everyone is fit and available.
RE: Leicester City - Nottingham Forest - JollyLolly - 27-09-2022
Reds73 has picked exactly the same side that I would based on current form, tactics, formation change and injuries, will SC think likewise?
RE: Leicester City - Nottingham Forest - JWJW - 27-09-2022
Henderson
Williams
Boly
Bade
Lodi
Freuler
Kouyate
LOB
MGW
Dennis
Awoniyi

Agreed, except I'm not sure what Aurier has done in his career to date to merit starting over Neco. A career backup predominately, who was released by his previously club and unable to find another club until after the deadline. If nothing else the guys has barely kicked a ball for the last 6 months so he'll be coming in cold aka Boly, Freuler etc in the last few games, he'll struggle. He was massively error strewn at Spurs, I obviously haven't followed his career since then.
Otherwise I think probably the best team, guessing O'Brien will start given Mangala just coming back from injury.
