All this talk is only in your head. Assumptions and more assumptions from the coffers of personal opinion. Nothing more. Top 7 beats no.21 and 24 anytime anyday. After all, even Shakhtar is in a league ranked no 8 and rates higher than more than half of the clubs in the EPL. Does it make Ukrainian league better than the EPL or even at par?

Just as I feared from following Puel's interview and observing that he brought in Gray for Nacho so early in that League cup game... Well Gray starts ahead of Nacho in no 9 role and that alone says a whole lot. I am afraid that Nacho won't enjoy the full confidence of Puel this season. Sadly so. 3 Likes |

Well, he has began the season on a decent note. I don't think he will lose his job unless a bad run of games happen for Leicester. Fact is, Puel does not trust Nacho enough. Nacho may have created the chance for Gray's goal in their last game but he had a frustrating encounter where he was just mildly decent. In the league cup, Puel played him alongside Okazaki and Leicester fans were hoping Nacho scores to get his confidence going. The goal eventually came but Nacho didn't even celebrate much. He was already frustrated after hitting the post twice in the first half from a strike and a header. Benching Nacho in this game in Vardy's absence will only work against Nacho's confidence. It is a sad scenario for Nacho but I hope he keeps his head and focus. As for Puel, I don't think he is in danger yet when it comes to his job. safarigirl: 2 Likes |

A good number of Leicester fans are not really excited seeing Gray upfront. Here is some of their reactions to the lineup... (But what if Gray goes on to bag a goal or two and down Liverpool? )... Finnegan: For all this talk of Puel being good with youngsters, all I see is a guy destroying the form and confidence of a clearly capable young centre forward (Nacho) that was finishing for fun and highly rated at the best club in the country. And for what? To play a winger up front that can't hit a barn door? EddieLCFC: Not going to get many chances today so would have preferred Kelechi as he’s far more clinical than Gray. Charl91: Gray as striker? Wow. 'Nacho must be pretty pissed off. LCCFox96: Happy apart from the lack of an actual striker. Gray isn't bad upfront but I'd rather we went with Iheanacho or Okazaki. Dropping Pereira back and bringing in Albrighton is wise vs Liverpool. Content with Ghezzal starting and pleased with more pitch time for Ndidi and Mendy together. Coolhandfox: Interesting, shows he has little faith in Nacho. Whoareyaaa: Nacho must be melting seeing that, got to start him Kingfox: Gray is going to get battered by Van Dijk.

Sad Nacho is not starting. Looks a poor decision considering Ghezzal would have offered Nacho a lot playing in the hole beside the striker. |

TheSuperNerd: Portuguese first tier is far better than the Scottish league, agreed. But we are talking about and pitching the Portuguese second tier league which is an obscure and lowly league against the Scottish league. This is the Koko. Now, we all know that the rating and performance of a team in UEFA competitions determines the rating of a league. O...ha! Now, tell me, how many of those teams in the Segunda Liga made the UEFA coefficient rating? Only one team in the Segunda Liga which is the second tier of the Portuguese league is rated. How many of those Scottish teams made the UEFA coefficient rating? 8 Scottish teams made the UEFA coefficient out of 448 teams rated while the segunda Liga has ONLY ONE yet you want us to believe Segunda Liga is better than the Scottish league. Bhahahaha! chai! For those who wants to rescue themselves from falsehood, check the source below. Na the snapshot be dat. Football coefficient ranking - Club ranking Celtic FC https://www.football-coefficient.eu › team Our coaching crew went all the way to source a player from obscure league after ignoring those in the top 10 leagues.

forgiveness: Like I already said Egbon... It is all in your head. All this one is tales by moonlight. Lol... On no universe is Ukrainian league even close to being on par with EPL just because Shakhtar outranks more than half of the clubs in the EPL... So also it is that the second divisions of the Top 7 leagues rate higher than those of Norway in no.24 and Scotland in no.21. Porto B is also the second team of Portugal's biggest elite side and won the Ledman liga pro as recently as Two years ago.. so deal with it. Changing the channel now mister. Argue with the gap in class between Top 7 second tiers and Stone-age leagues in nos 21 and 24... Hahahahahahahahahaha... Bye bye. **Clicks** 4 Likes 1 Share

But they got Maddison in the hole "behind" the striker. Ghezzal alongside Madison is a prospectively fine combo and would have offered up chances for Nacho to try bury. The idea of Gray shaa... Well, time will tell. TheGoodJoe: 3 Likes |
