    Marc Albrighton and Daniel Amartey are the only players missing. So here is what I would go with

    Schmeichel

    Ricardo
    Maguire
    Evans
    Chilwell

    Ndidi
    Tielemans

    Gray
    Maddison
    Barnes

    Vardy

    Subs- Ward, Morgan, Fuchs, Mendy, Choudhury, Ghezzal, Iheanacho

    Interesting quotes from Rodgers on Kelechi Iheanacho

    “I think he's a great talent but he's a number nine. He's not one who can play on the sides or come in.

    “Some strikers I've worked with you can maybe shuffle them about and slide them around to make it work – but he's a number nine and that's it. And we already have a good number nine. So he's got a fight to get ahead.

    “But there's maybe another system to make it work, like a diamond.”

    Brendan Rodgers has said he doesnt expect Matty James to be involved with the first team this season

    Is what I thought and isn't good to hear as we need someone adaptable and able to play on the sides or come in - one of Vardy's great strengths as a lone striker that he is able to play as a de facto winger and allow other players to get into the box for him to cross to.

    Its not Iheanacho’s fault we dont have the required depth in them positions

    Iheanacho scored alot of goals for Man City playing on his own getting on the end of crosses. Once he gets his confidence back and given the right service he will score goals

    Im glad hes being brutally honest about this. Doesn't sound like he'll be played out of position any more and will get time if Vardy gets injured.

    Theres nothing wrong with being just a number 9, he just needs to go somewhere (pref on loan) where he'll get minutes in that position and (hopefully) take over from Vardy.

    I don't think there needs to be a huge rush to move him in, hes still young and developing with youth around him. Its not like we have a "Salah" and "Mane" ready and he need to be "Firmino" right now

    No doubt there will need to be a transition period like Chilwell coming in for Fuchs last season, but it doesn't sound like BR is worried too much as hes stated that Vardys key to his plans for the near future.

    Vardy may be 32 but he is a young 32. Didnt turn professional until 25 and didnt play much in the first year

    Vardy can easily play another 3 or 4 years

    What’s happened to Maguire! He was so good last season and a liability in everything he does at the moment. If we can get a decent bid for him in the summer we should cash in

    Well ... i guess it might draw them out a bit, and we aren't bad at the counter attack
