Claudio Ranieri to ring the changes for West Ham United trip

By Daniel Lewis, Senior Reporter | 21 September 2015

Leicester City chief Claudio Ranieri admits that he is planning on 'changing a lot of players' for the midweek trip to face West Ham United in the League Cup.

Claudio Ranieri has revealed that he plans to heavily rotate his Leicester City squad for the League Cup meeting with West Ham United.

The Foxes have made an impressive start to their league campaign by remaining the only side unbeaten in the division.

Ranieri is keen for his side to continue building momentum, but he plans to retain the faith in the starting XI that saw off Bury in the last round.

"All the players are in good condition and I am a very lucky man because I can choose between 24 and 25 players in good condition," he is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

"I will change a lot of players. I think it will be more or less the same that played the last round of the cup. They are very good players and they deserve to continue to play for the match tomorrow.

"Before the matches I look and everyone works very hard, but I can pick just 11. But there are also others who deserve to play. In the last round against Bury I changed a lot, and also tomorrow I will change a lot to give everybody the opportunity to show their best."

Youngster Joe Dodoo scored a hat-trick for City in their 4-1 win over Bury at Gigg Lane.
