If Johnson is fit he plays & we play 4 at the back
If he isn't then the options are play Muniesa or Diouf there (neither are right backs really) or play Geoff there (but he would be a miss in midfield) or play Tom Edwards there (that would be my choice)
alternatively play wing backs, Diouf & Muniesa as wing backs,Pieters tucking in the central 3 (Hughes would probably have that the other way round) but that would mean a back 3 or Ryan,Bruno & Muniesa/Pieters which doesn't look quite right
lets give Edwards a game, it would do him the world of good & be a huge boost to the youth set up
we are in no danger of Europe or relegation so the risk is as low as it could be & the potential long term benefits could save Stoke a lot in the market

I still think on current form Diouf is the better option at right back over Johnson if both are fit. And pretty easily too, which saddens me.
I like Edwards, I think he'll be a really good player in fact. Is throwing him in against Leicester away with their pace and cheating cunt ways the best for him? I have no idea.
He should be on the bench though definitely.

Do we know how Johnno is?
Could we throw young Tom Edwards in rather than move Cameron if GJ is out?
Edit:
Be loads better if I read up the page to see this already discussed! 😂

Afternoon chaps,
Looking forward to the match on Saturday. Thought I'd give you some insight into our probable lineup etc. Shinji Okazaki, who has been on international break with Japan, will probably make way for Islam Slimani up front. Okazaki doesn't tend to play after the international break as he is more tired due to his style of game, likely to come on though for a bit of energy later in the match if need be. In addition, Wes Morgan will probably come back in for Yohan Benalouane at CB.
I, and most of the Leicester fanbase are feeling confident about this one given the past few weeks revival under Craig Shakespeare. We've got you and Sunderland coming up in the next two games, two matches we should and need to be winning to continue to pull away from the relegation zone.

Hughes will not risk Edwards even if both Johnson and Cameron are unfit to add to Bards' suspension. He does not give 18 year olds a debut in tough away games; it is simply not his style. If Geoff is fit and Johnson not, he will move him across to full back and bring back Whelan into the middle.

Cameron preferred to Glenn but I've heard he's injured?
Pieters probably but Ramadan could work.

I can see Glenn J and Shaq not fit (again??? shock, horror!!) but Geoff, being made of sterner stuff (not that it is too hard!), making the game, so:
Grant
Cameron Shawcross Martins Indi Pieters
Whelan Allen (try and play nicely together, boys!)
Ramadan Afellay Arnautovic
Berahino

Just to correct myself, Morgan is still out at CB which was confirmed at the press conference today, so it's likely to be Huth and Benalouane.

If Geoff is fit and Johnson not, he will move him across to full back and bring back Whelan into the middle. Not only that I imagine his performance bonus depends in part at least on a top half finish, I can see him playing fast and loose with anything on that premise alone.

Sadly with Leicesters revival and our pretty poor form recently I can't see past a defeat. Hope I'm wrong of course. Let's hope we give em a game.
