Team for Leicester

[Bin Ont Turf]

It's only really centre midfield that's going to be the talking point.

Who will partner Jeff? The little Belgian magician or Joseph Betfred?

Heaton
Lowton
Keane
Mee
Ward
?
Hendrick
Boyd
Guddy
Barnes
Gray

[ClaretAndJew]

Heaton
Lowton
Keane
Mee
Ward
Tarkowski
Gudmunson
Defour
Barton
Hendrick
Vokes

[colne-claret]

Heaton
Lowton
Keane
Mee
Ward
Tarkowski
Gudmunson
Defour
Barton
Hendrick
Vokes

Defour has to play.

[colne-claret]

Could Barton not be banned by that stage anyway?

[ClaretAndJew]

That's why I included him in my line up, Colne-Claret....???

[DCWat]

Defour has to play.

Great player / prospect as he is, Tarkowski isn't and won't be a central midfielder. He will do a job but I wouldn't be picking him ahead of a specialist in that position.

If it's a 4-4-2 I'd opt for:

Heaton
Lowton
Keane
Mee / Tarkowski
Boyd
Defour
Hendrick
JBG
Gray
Barnes

Plus Ward - thanks BOT

[Bin Ont Turf]

Have you warded him off DCWat?

[ClaretAndJew]

I've included Defour in my lineup.

Not sure what the problem is.

Tarkowski in front of back 4 like last night.

[Lowbankclaret]

Barton has to repond by the 31st. Hopfully the document will be very latge and need several lawyers to read and understand it. then request a personal hearing.

Could be a few weeks beofre we know whats going on.

Heaton
Lowton

Mee
Ward
Boyd
Defour
Barton
Hendrick
Barnes
Gray

To me all the rested players have to start otherwise why rest them

[DCWat]

Isn't the end of January the deadline for submitting his case. Surely then it's a case of setting up the hearing and any attempts to delay it as long as possible, requesting a personal hearing etc. etc.

I think you have missed out Ward in there DC

Sorry, I just clicked reply on yours instead of top post.

[FactualFrank]

With Leicester having Huth and Morgan in central defence, it wouldn't surprise me if Dyche starts with Vokes upfront (alongside Gray).

Ahh right. Drag it out as long as possible!

Just out of interest Mr DC, what is it that you have seen that suggests Tarkowski can't play in a defensive midfield role ? From the bits I've seen him play he looks more than capable.
