The attacking mantra was ditched during his time at the King Power Stadium, could he pull the trick off again?
Boss Brendan Rodgers was in bullish form at his final press conference before facing Atalanta - insisting attacking football is just part of his DNA. After the Champions League thumping at the hands of Borussia Dortmund last time out in Europe's elite competition, many Celtic fans were hoping to see the boss adopt a more cautious approach when they travel to Italy to face Atalanta.
The game ended in a 1-0 defeat to the Polish side - but Rodgers saw enough to stick with it, and was rewarded days later against Manchester United. With Jonny Evans as part of the back three in place of Vestergaard, Leicester secured their first win in five games to stop the rot. He would pick up another win with the formation the following week to see off Brentford.
