Sousa facing dilemma

23 September 2010 16:00
Boss Paulo Sousa faces a welcome selection headache as Leicester prepare to face Portsmouth at Fratton Park for the second time in four days. The former Swansea manager made eight changes in midweek as the Foxes triumphed 2-1 in the Carling Cup third round. Goalscorers Michael Morrison and Lloyd Dyer, along with midfielder Andy King, were the only survivors from the side that started the npower Championship defeat to QPR. Sousa must decide whether to make wholesale changes once more, or stick with the majority of the players that came in on Tuesday night. Winger Paul Gallagher could be one of few players to keep his place in the team, with the likes of Matt Oakley, Ritchie Wellens, Matty Fryatt and Martyn Waghorn strong contenders to return to the starting XI. Conrad Logan will hope to keep his place in goal, but Carl Ikeme is usually recalled following cup matches while Chris Weale is also back in the frame after a shoulder injury.
