So it's Fulham tomorrow night, who have been in better form recently while looking difficult to beat.

Granted they are drawing a lot of games but they are much improved since the start of the season, as are we.

Be interesting to see what side we go with, as we play Liverpool again the following Sunday (if it's 0-0 again I'm taking a break from the site 😂) .

I'd go full strength against Fulham. Bruno definitely needs a rest but it would be good to get one last performance out of him before giving him a week or two to recharge his batteries.

I wouldn't be surprised to see McFred again, as Fulham are an energetic team, or perhaps Matic and Fred.

Finally a shout out to Leicester who have quietly gone about their business. If they beat Chelsea tonight, and it's a big if, they go top. That's a huge achievement for them as they've continued their good form without really taking up any headlines.

I like Rodgers wazza. He is a really good coach. His teams play the right way. He has won a lot with Celtic but never got over the line with Liverpool and blew up last year with Leicester so there are question marks over his management but there are signs that is improving.
He gets his teams playing good football imo that's for sure.
He needs to get over the line if he does with Leicester even top4 with them is a great achievement i think he will get a crack at one of the really big clubs again at either chelsea city or ourselves.
He went really close with Liverpool there were a slip away from winning the league. I think he has it in him and i'd put him slightly ahead of poch.
A draw is the best result for us tonight imo.

Chelsea have just conceded there 50 goal in 28.5 away games. i'm amazed at that, there defending as a team isn't great but that's awful.

Was Rodgers not a junior at United a long time ago? I have it in my head he was.

Ken, I completely agree. Rodgers is doing a brilliant job and you’re right in saying Leicester have a clear style of play. They are looking really solid now. The game is still ongoing as I type and they are on the verge of a clean sheet having just achieved the same against Southampton.

I also think we made a mistake letting Evans go. Although he’s at the end of his career now he could have done a job for us over the last 2-3 years in comparison to what we’ve seen.

I really like Justin as well, he’s been great this season.

Maddison looks back to his best and they have found a player in fofana.
Chelsea will be disappointed not of scored tho .
Leicester have played well could of had a few more . Sat deep played on the break only had 33% possession.
They do it very well.

Agreed jred. They are making the most of what they have available. Great achievement for them to be top at the half way stage. Time will tell if they can have a better second half to the season than they had last time out.

Seems a good coach but worth recognition that Leicester is a well run football club and has been for some time.

Rodgers would be an interesting option but never see it happening.

I doubt this even being considered and any changes will be knee jerk and whoever's available will arrive.

I'd take the Ajax coach and management team if we ever make a change or Paul Mitchel and Naglesmann.

Actually Rodgers had trials as a schoolboy under SAF, but he didn’t make it. He spoke highly of how SAF treated him.
