In recent days we have seen Leicester being linked with several players in different positions. To see Leicester linked with another flank alternative is not difficult to understand, it just confirms that Stephy Mavididi and even Will Alves can be regarded as potential selling assets. Bobby De Cordova-Reid has also been listed among players who could leave in the window.

Harry Howell and Liam Cullen are players who can operate in other positions and might be more of use as offensive midfielders, than being placed out on the flank. The players seen linked, and the latest one, Jack Diamond from Stockport, is a versitale option, preferebly playing on the left wing, which is one position Stephy Mavididi is playing in, seeing him as a potential sale before the transfer window close.

Harry Souttar hopefully staying, but if he leaves, would have loved to see the pairing of Olebade Aluko and Ilari Kangasniemi. A very exciting and special partnership, of two very talented 19 year old defenders.

Russell Martin came to the game with a line-up no one would have guessed, playing a back four without central defenders. The two full backs Luke Thomas and Olabade Aluko played in the central defence. The rest of the team was more or less as expected, having a balanced set up.

Looking at the Ipswich line-up on the day, we did not discover any towering players in their line-up and as expected this game was played on the floor, giving Luke Thomas and Olabade Aluko a lifeline. Both players played well and had a good game, Aluko being our Leicester man of the match.
