    Imagine teams playing 2 games in 24 hours seems inconceivable, and that was in the days of no subs.

    I don’t know when it became not the done thing..but we did play away to West Brom and then home to Forest on consecutive days in December ‘93

    edit..that’s a lot longer ago than I realised actually..

    On the other hand, they absolutely hate their manager. I’ve got many argyle supporting mates and they are not confident about this game whatsoever having not scored in their previous 4 home games.

    If we make a bright start and take the lead it could become very toxic from the home fans as it did v Preston for them in their last home game.

     

    So maybe we’re not the ficklest fans after all.

    What I do find interesting is that we've had a couple of tricky patches with a back 3 laready this season and everyone (most of OTIB) was screaming for a return to a back 4. 

    Now what do we want?!

    I’m happy with a back 5, as I am with a back 4. It’s more about what’s in front of the defence. Twine, whilst not at his best, did add some creativity and meant Knight could play alongside James in the centre.

    On the day I thought that was the best they could be because of the way we played, all this they are just strolling, I don't buy.

    I thought at the time I posted that it looked like Leicester could step up another gear. That opinion might have been swayed by how slow we’ve been to start the second half recently. There were definitely signs of it in the first half with Vardy twice going close. 
     

    But Liam was proactive in his changes and we took the game to them more. Definitely more down to our good performance than Leicester simply being poor. Credit to Liam and the team for that.
