LB Alberto Moreno

With the pace already discussed from Musa and Vardy, Moreno’s inclusion becomes that more important. Granted, Mahrez may be licking his lips at the idea of running at someone whose brain may have been lobotomized at some point in recent times, but at least he has recovery pace.

Plus, I still rate Moreno enough– well, give him a bigger leash than most. I’m just not ready to give up on the endearing Spaniard.

Moreno has been sat on the bench behind Milner the past two matches and Milner took a play out of Moreno’s playbook last match in drifting out of position in the buildup to a goal scored.
