Leicester vs QPR: Predicted Foxes FA Cup XI | OneFootball

The King Power side have improved their performances, worsened their results, and showed all the defensive resilience of a half-used packet of uncooked pasta being used as armour against a howitzer bombardment. Myriad errors and mistakes in passing, decision-making, and a lack of defensive awareness are to blame for our pathetic run of form.

Ruud van Nistelrooy needs to kickstart the Leicester City form that is expected of this squad. The expense used in this collection of players threatens Profit and Sustainability Regulations violations and yet seems impotent in defence. So, when the Foxes face QPR in the FA Cup, it is less about progressing in that competition and more about igniting performances and giving opportunities to differing talents to shine.

For example, Will Alves has recently featured for the Dutchman's squad and Facundo Buonanotte has been used less than anticipated by supporters since Nistelrooy's premiership commenced. On top of this, we have seen a reliance on the upsettingly shambolic James Justin. Possibly it would be worth trying a replacement for Justin and giving Alves a run out too.
