    I would've thought that too MrsG, but Fernandes was fit enough to (basically) start when he returned against Southampton, after replacing Antonio within 10 mins. So who knows?

    ;hmm Had Fernandes played some U23 games, I wonder?

    Obiang will be nowhere near fit enough to start, surely.

    Yes but Pedro Obiang is so good that.....

    If Obiang isn't fit, Rice can play DM, with Ginge replacing him as a CB. Rice is actually much better as a DM, so should play there, given a chance.

    No, the U23s only had one game in March, against Chelsea on the 11th, the day after the Burnley game when Fernandes was still injured, however he did play 76 minutes for the Swiss under 21s against Portugal on the 27th, four days before the Southampton match.

    Remember we didn't play for three weeks in March because of the international break, FA Cup, etc. and went to Florida

    In other news the board - or at least Karren Brady - could be refused entry to the Leicester Directors Box because the owner is still annoyed about comments she made in the Sun last year about him sacking Ranieri.

    For Christmas Karren has asked Santa to bring her a copy of Dale Carnegie's "How to make friends and influence people".

    Bit worrying Leicester haven't won a home league game since January. Who better to face them to break that sequence.

    Looking back at the goals they have conceded, they are vulnerable to a big CF.

    And a nippy MF/winger.

    9 clean sheets.

    Lawro has us down to lose so i'm feeling more confident already

    Carroll in the squad after a fine and apology.
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    Such a non-story, really.
  • KuchinghammerKuchinghammer
    Carroll being on board will give the squad a big lift. I'm now more confident that they will be positive and get something from this game. If they go for three points and finish with one, everyone will be happy. Yes? ;wink
  • stevesteve
    ;hmm perhaps then again

    3 points and Swansea and Southampton to lose or draw. Job done.
  • grey_til_I_dyegrey_til_I_dye

    I certainly would be.

    I'm pretty sure 36 would do it for us, but 3 points would end any concerns, imo.

    The bookies fancy a 0-0 draw and I'm not going to argue with them
  • alderzalderz
    Have the bookies seen us defend?

    I've heard reports that Moyes said that Collins and Obiang won't be involved due to lack of match fitness although I haven't seen the original interview

    Moyes says that despite all three games that Evra has been in the starting line up were 4-1 defeats we should give him "a little bit of leeway" because two of those games were "against top teams".

    Oh dear

    AC & Chicarita are your missing players.
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    if Evra plays the board should sack him straight after the game.
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    What even if Evra clears two off the line and scores a hat-trick? ;wink
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    yeah and pigs running at 80 mph down a hill whilst doing a sharp turn to the right will begin to take off and with good headwind to.

    Or maybe they should sack themselves as they were the ones who signed him
