I'm not a massive fan of Trippier, I think we should put all of our faith in KWP and his development for the remainder of the season, but I'm not so against him that I can't see why he's starting today.

When a player makes a big mistake like he did in his last game, I think you have two options. You can either drop him and basically admit that you've lost faith, or you can keep him in, tell him you expect better and allow him to potentially redeem himself. That's less of an option if the next game is against a top 6 contender, but Fulham, with all due respect, are an option and ideal for Trippier to do just that.

It's smart to put him in a back five for insurance, just in case, but generally I think he'll do well today. One good cross will do with Llorente in the box and suddenly he's confident again and the majority of the fans forgive the previous performance. Then it's up to Poch who starts the next game.

Ranieri hasn't lost against us in his last 11 meetings as manager. :wideyed:

I have a really bad feeling about today. Think we will feel the losses of Kane and Son badly.
His Chelsea team was vastly superior to our various shit-shows in those days, and the Leicester season doesn't count.

These are his sort of games aswell, where we should have majority of possession and the defence has had problems with positioning all season. I expect him to be a great outlet.

Didn’t we knock Leicester out of the FA Cup the year they won the league?

Happy that we've gone back 3, we should get the best of Trippier now and I expect him to have a great game with Dele and LLorente heading ability. Bench is awful so need to get out in-front early on and finish the game.
Sorry everyone for a club of our stature and how we have performed over the last 3/4 seasons to have a bench like we have is an absolute disgrace. Happy with the line up but our squad after 12/13 players is no short of embarrassing. With talk of challenging for the league what a joke no chance did we ever had. Let’s hope we get the 3 pts lads and will be in a better position than we were at the end of last weekend COYS

Total spam dude......how many injuries have we got? At least 4 who would have been on the pitch or bench otherwise.

So on that premise if Ranieri went to Accrington Stanley and we got them in the cup youd be worried lol?
Boys.... its Fulham ;)
