Col U v CITY

[GeoFox]

I don't think Burrows and Taggs expected to be in charge of this one...maybe Milan is seeing what they can do given their impressive start, particularly given we couldn't hit a barn door at 10 paces under Megson.

Team news from the BBC:

Colchester striker Teddy Sheringham begins a three-match ban after his sending-off against Coventry.
Keeper Aidan Davison (shoulder) faces a late fitness check, with Dean Gerken standing by. Jamie Guy and Bela Balogh are both available after injury.

Leicester are without Levi Porter after he suffered a knee injury against Chelsea but Collins John returns after he was cup-tied for that game.

Stephen Clemence, James Wesolowski and Iain Hume are still sidelined.

Clemence. Weso, Hume and Porter out pretty much wipes out our midfield entirely. I expect:

actually I've no idea what to expect in midfield or up front, our options are so limited it will include players out of position, but which ones! And which strikers to play after the Chelsea game...

Could be a good match this...

Leicester 1-0 up. Nice skills there from DJ Campbell!

Reasonable...though once again after a very impressive performance against far superior opposition we are lacklustre in the next league game.

We edged it and had some good chances to win it and on the basis of our already limited midfield being completely injured its a decent point. Won't get Burrows or Taggs the job though.

Newton was rubbish when he came on and Stearman and Kenton weren't up to much either.
Sheehan has one hell of a sweet left foot...easily the best striker of a dead ball since the Muzzy days if not before. Sometimes gets too much bend on it though!
