AFC Bournemouth v Leicester City - Fifth Round FA Cup

Can't believe Meps isn't getting a start. I mean if Senesi or Zabs get injured, he's going to have to come in. Good to go for the win, but does he need to start the whole back PL line?
 
Clearly AI doesn't have a lot of faith in Meps and tbf neither do I.
But yes agree he should at least get a run out and give one of Senesi or Zabs a rest.
Well, we wouldn't let him go out on loan, so that must have been in case we need him. Meps has shown periods of being very good for us, especially last season. He's not the fastest and makes mistakes, but so do all players. I think your assessment is correct. Andoni doesn't have faith in him.
 
We have put out a strong team and they have ringed the changes as their manager mentioned he might.

This is a great chance for us to get in that next round and ‘smell’ Wembley’.


Arjan Raikhy has been handed his full Leicester City debut with Enzo Maresca making nine changes for the FA Cup clash at Bournemouth.

Maresca promised heavy rotation and has delivered, with only Hamza Choudhury and Jannik Vestergaard keeping their places from City's loss at Leeds. Raikhy is the standout name of those coming into the side, and could either play in the deep midfield role, usually occupied by Harry Winks, or as a number eight, where he has played in his two senior substitute performances.

Also coming into the side are goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk, defenders Conor Coady and Callum Doyle, midfielders Dennis Praet and Yunus, wingers Marc Albrighton and Wanya Marcal, and striker Tom Cannon. The latter is preferred to Kelechi Iheanacho, who is on the bench for the first time since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations.

 
A quote from a Leicester City fan this evening -

'Always amazes me that B'mouth manage to continue to be a PL side. Embarrassing not only for us, but many other sides in our league. They should be L1 at best. Not that there's any sour grapes on my behalf after last seasons dismal performance at home which was a memory that will take many, many years to forget.'
Maybe Bournemouth being in a beautiful seaside area rather than being an East Midland shithole is a factor as good players quite like it here.
 
I was asked a question and i answered it. Your horse and US Cherrys cat has more common sense than some of the loopy loos who went to the game and actually thought we were going to get something from it.
Maybe take pride in an actually impressive prediction. Being proud of the Man City prediction is like being proud of having a dick of AT LEAST 1cm!!!
 
Will be interesting to see if Billing or Scott play as the 10, or if they interchange like Billing used to do with Christie.

Big shoes to fill with Christie having a breather.
