    I'm not watching but I read only one shot. I would expect him or Ulloa to come on.

    No doubt Okazaki in Front of Ulloa o maybe both Okazaki for Vardy and Ulloa.

    So mysterious to change system after this worked so incredible well. Fore sure they are missing Okazaki,he is a beast at the moment. Totaly understandable this change and I am glad this system is not gonna work

    Okazaki is subbed in for Mahrez.

    For the best goalscorer lol ? Today I think Leicesters coach don`t know what to do. Why not subbed out someone other for Okazaki to field the best lineup

    Did you watch the first half? Maybe Mahrez was playing poorly, I don't know. But from what I see now, the team seems just having a hard time in general to pass the ball around, Okazaki hasn't even almost touched it

    edit: well, the english commentator said that Mahrez had "a really poor half"

    I love Okazaki, he has a good chance but missed and had a great pre-asssist with Vardy but Dodoo missed the ball freely. Leicester is dominating since Okazaki is there. He is invoved in almost every attack.

    Shinji is a real machine.

    superb steal by Okazaki leads to a PK gained by Vardy.

    edit: wow that was almost saved, but it's a goal!

    I was watching, the whole team wasn't functioning well, I think that Okazaki's teamwork was making up for Vardy and Mahrez's individuality and selfishness in the last 3 matches, so he just had to put Okazaki in for Kante and the system would've work again.

    Okazaki needs to stop with the diving tho. It's clearly not going to work as well in the Premier and he risks being booked. Apart from losing the ball, obviously.

    I don`t think he is diving it maybe looks like but that remains of his electric palying style, he looses fast and often the standing cause he is bulling like hell

    This Ghanian LB (Schlupp) is a beast, Nagatomo will have to work hard to steal his place.

    well, he can play on both sides or even on the midfield... still don't think this deal is happening

    hmm I don't know, it's just the classic thing Okazaki kept doing for years, really :p

    Yeah I know that stuff from Okazaki and I was asking myself the same. I think this has to be with his speed and agressiv playing style. When Okazaki got knocked he falling down fast in some situations cause he looses his feed easily. He is dancing, running and jumping like a monster and maybe this is the reason

    Maybe his balance is not great, but I think he's just searching for the foul really. You see it in his expressions too. It often worked well for him, just think it won't here.

    Okazaki was already spending a lot of time on the floor in Germany.
