The Leicester line-up today is just like a pack of Fishermans Friend, showing the fact that Ruud van Nistelrooy goes with a line-up, to be seen as “the strongest there is”.
Normally you would believe a few players would be rested and give a chance to others, but with the line-up chosen, at least we can believe Leicester will be chasing a win against a QPR team currently 13th in the Championship table, 8 points below the play-off zone.
Watching a few you tube fan channels reporting on Leicester, as well as having a look at different websites match previews, is fascinating, as they got it mostly wrong this time. Possibly having a mindset and in a way not really understanding the inner life at a football club, therefor going for the obvious, starting a full rotation prediction, not having an eye on the risk of losing.
Leicester are missing Jannik Vestergaard and Luke Thomas from the recent line-up vs. Aston Villa, then we have a very positive change, most of us would like to see, giving Facundo Bounanotte a starting position, leaving Jordan Ayew on the bench. Ruud van Nistelrooy most certainly believe Leicester will dominate with a lot of possession, then to have the Argentinian on the field is a good option, as his qualities could find the pockets even in the smallest areas.

The importance of a win is there to see as it can lift spirit inside the camp, going with a line-up that looks the one Ruud believe is his strongest. No need to rest anyone at this point, as it will be a week to the next game coming up. The fact that you should rest players, being affraid of getting injuries, is a lottery, as you have no say on what will happen during a game, and to get 90 minutes for your best players, would be the best training you can get.
We fully support Ruud van Nistelrooy on the line-up to play Queens Park Rangers today, as it looks the best to kill this game and collect a win, which is very much needed.
