Randolph
Byram Collins Ogbonna Cresswell
Obiang
Moses/Antonio Kouyate Payet Lanzini
Sakho/Emenike
Carroll won't get much luck out of Huth and Morgan, need a more mobile striker.
Just think Noble could do with a rest. Randolph deserves a league game.
Obiang must play to nullify their midfield, especially Mahrez.

I'd like to know the truth behind both Sakho and Reid. If they're causing problems then get rid of them today. If not, they should play.
Adrian Byram-Tomkins-Reid-Ogbonna-Cresswell Song-Kouyate-Payet Sakho-Carroll
Now we have three CBs to deal with Vardy and any cut through the middle, you can expect that Jap and Mahrez to keep doing it, also gives our wing backs full license to bomb forward and get crosses in to Carroll's head without leaving us light at the back.
Plenty of creativity in the middle, Song and Payet going wider or narrower depending upon where Byram and Cresswell are at that time.
Best of all, a very strong bench with an International GK in Randolph, midfield steel in Obiang, flair in Lanzini or passion in Noble, goals from behind a main striker from Valencia or Moses and if Carroll has to come off Emineke can be the bloke up top even though I think he's shit.
So there's your team to beat Leicester.

Forgot to point out that Collins would be on the bench for CB and O'Brien for either side.
We could always revert to a flat back four and add to our midfield, see?

Hopefully we will get at least EL for next season so I would expect Randy to be offered EL & Cup games, which will hopefully be enough to entice him to stay... we need two decent keepers.

It's a nice break until Sunday, so bollocks to resting anyone considering there are only 6 games left.
As for the easy excuse of saying they looked tired last night, I think that's nonsense.
Entire midfield was gash, so get them all back in there (with the exception of Valencia) and let them prove it was just an off day.
Adrian Byram - Tomkins - Ogbonna - Cresswell Kouyate - Noble Antonio - Payet - Lanzini Emineke
I'd swap Reid for Tomkins and Sakho for Emineke if fit, though I'm too lazy to find out if they will be!!

If Sakho is fit and up for it he has to play. Same with Reid because as much as I think Collins is a good defender unless we play deep Collins is too slow up against Vardy.
Pointless playing Carroll because we will need to push high to get anything out of him and if we lose the ball like we did last night we will get done on the break.
We need to play a counter attacking game like we did at Anfield or the Etihad or maybe even a striker less formation to confuse Morgan and Huth. Maybe a 433 with a back four, deep midfield of Kouyate, Noble, Obiang and three attacking midfielders Payet, Lanzini, Antonio would work. Having the attacking midfield three sitting between the lines of Leicester's 442 it would give a problem on who Morgan, Huth and Drinkwater pick up.

Carroll can't play 3 games in 8 days.Plus he got a needless booking that made him think twice for the rest of the match.He would of been better coming off the bench last night and Huth & Morgan will be able to deal with him.Antonio needs to play in his proper position on Sunday.

Some of the dribble on here is madness! We've lost 1 game, it happens.
Why would you want to rest Payet?!? We only have 6 games left, so what are we resting him for?
And why any of our so called supporters want us to lose is mind boggling, even if it does help Spurs out.
We have some right wankers that support us!

totally agree with you re the loss of the midfield
kouyate and noble were overrun
first time i have really criticised slaven but we did not react to the imbalance
obiang clearly has done something wrong or wants out

I know we all want Obiang back in but for now I'd swap Tomkins and Valencia for byram and Collins.
If kouyate was asked to sit a bit more, we may be a bit more disciplined.we've got 6 games left now, and I'd leave Lanzini in and go for it

Need Obiang in there and hope sakho is fit, as Carroll won't get much change from Huth and Morgan
Leicester are all about solid defence and counter attack but I'd imagine they'll start getting nervey if it's still goalless with 20 or so minutes to go. They'll be in proper stick or twist mode as a win puts them so close to the title whilst a draw coukd see Spurs peg them back a bit
We need to revert to our tactics from earlier in the season and be tough to break down and look for a swift counter or two. We also need Byram or Tomkins in at right back as they burdened us down the flanks twice already this season, and Antonio further up the pitch gives defensive support whilst preventing Fuchs getting forward as much
