No Lucas (or Benteke! ) indicates attack is the word of the day.

No Ibe though

No Lucas in the side and Lallana in the midfield then?

I hope Lovren and Sakho are fit

[Fosterbloke]

I like that team, I hope Can is disciplined enough to keep an eye out for the counter attack.

[frank the tank]

**** line up. Ibe must be injured.

How the **** lallana gets a game is beyond me. ****in ****e...

Wondering if its 4-4-2 diamond

---------Mignolet,
Clyne, Lovren, Sakho, Moreno,
-----------Can,
--Henderson, Coutinho
---------Lallana,
-----Firmino, Origi

or just 4-2-3-1 (more likely)

[RichC]

Lucas has looked leggy the past few games it's probably the right decision.

You don't rate him ?

Possibly, but if he were going with that I'd rather Coutinho play in behind the front two than Lallana

[Chris]

Nice team on paper, our best 4 defenders, hopefully they can get an injury free run and we'll see how they do.

Not a fan huh? You've kept that quiet.

[Paul12]

No it is Can and Henderson sitting deeper, so 4 - 2 - 3 - 1. A predictable team selection really; Lucas does not have the pace for a game like this, but doesx Can have the concentration?

Ibe has been punished for not spending more on his secret santa present. And Jurgen obviously doesn't know yet the glasses were from Clyne.

Hope Firmino turns up today. If he has another stinker he can have no complaints if he doesn't play again for a while.

Interesting to see how Lovren and Sakho get on. Still think we need another coming in as first choice back there but let's see how they get on today.

Can't believe I'm dreading us playing Leicester

[Fierce]

--------- Mignolet
Clyne Lovren Sakho Moreno
------- Can -- Henderson
-- Lallana - Coutinho - Firmino
----------- Origi

or just 4-2-3-1 (more likely)

Got to expect a win today, though a good performance as well would be welcome.............need to work to earn the right to play football all the same, but I'd expect a reaction from last week so think we'll be alright.
