Marvin Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 I can't stand this line of argument, trotted out by mainly non Foxes fans. We we won the league, lost one admittedly outstanding player and spent 70million. How can our current position be the right one? Through winning the league did we or should we have changed that sense of our 'normal place'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babylon Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 Patronising shite. Do they want their clubs to strive for better, or are they happy with their supposed rightful place in the league system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgfualol Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 Hate it. Hate this shite argument. "Clubs other than the big ones should have no ambition" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmarteyAndChill Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 I still can't believe Kantè played for us. Best box to box-defensive midfielder in the world and we got him for £5m. The last 3 seasons have been incredible, I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koke Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 Hate that argument. Pundits act like we're a League 2 club who got lucky. We are bigger than Hull, Burnley, Bournemouth, Swansea, Watford, Palace and Stoke. We're same size as Southampton and West Brom and we should aim to be where they are.

z-layrex Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 What exactly judges where a club "should be" anyway? The media is just still fuming that we made a joke of their toxic money bloated industry last year by winning with an actual team as opposed to money. It's made a lot of people very uncomfortable.

Does my nut in. Carragher is the worst "last season was a freak" no it wasn't mate, apart from Arsenal we destroyed everyone. That's not a freak We won the league because we were the best team in the league, end of. Non city fans are loving this now because their standard top 4 wasn't UTD, arsenal, Chelsea & city for once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koke Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 Also getting annoyed with calling our players bad. Merson said Palace have better players than us. Carragher have been calling our squad average for 2 months now. Michael Owen has decided to dish it out to our players now as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEnglandFox Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 What does Jamie Carragher actually know about Football outside of the big clubs. Only played for Liverpool. Lowest league position 8th and that year got 2 cup finals and 1 cup. We're pets to those big club people. They don't understand the concept of being out of the top 10.

BenTheFox Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 We're not same Leicester City that couldn't pay a few hundred grand for Joey Gudjohnsen. We're the Leicester City that have the ninth richest owners in English football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiritwalker Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 It's elitist shite, " you got lucky, now get back to your place". Why should we accept relegation just because pundits and the press think we should be so grateful for winning the league. If we were Chelsea or Arsenal no one would be saying we should put up with being shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whetstonefox Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 If we can get through this nightmare of a season I can see us bouncing back into the top 10 next season. By that time the media will have moved onto the latest football story and we'll be ignored like West Brom.We just have to make sure we stay up.

It's been trotted out so much in the last 48 hours people are stating it as fact. If that's the case why did Palace and Swansea sack their manager when they finished 12th-15th last season? And Ranieri have spent £80m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh, during our slating on Soccer Saturday I'm sure it was Merson who said " clubs like Leicester, Hull and Bournemouth". Well we're not a club like Hull or Bournemouth.

Buzzell Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 After last season it's as if the media, ex players, other fans couldn't wait for us to fail just so they can say 'told you so'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickyblueeyes Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 The insults thrown at the players, club and it's staff is atrocious. Ex players are have really left there professional hat at home and just letting rip. They feel it's ok, because it's Leicester. It's appalling. If this doesn't motivate the players, nothing will. Oh, and as for Michael Owen, he couldn't get into the man united reserves either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmarteyAndChill Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 We got lucky, our players were on drugs, the 'big 4' didn't turn up are the same people saying it's a disgrace you sacked Claudio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nalis Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 Simple comments by simple people who give comments to appeal to the masses. Social media is full of comments from 15 year olds from Italy and Mozambique stating 'Lester are the worst, get dmoted like if u agre'.The real footballing thinkers have even their true insight and only their voices are respected. Insignificants like Owen at el arent worth the clickbait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brakey Posted 25 February 2017 Share Posted 25 February 2017 The league doesn't lie we deserved to win it last year and below par performances this year leave us where we deserve to be. Not one player has been anywhere near last years form far from it. So to be fair they took all the credit and increased contracts and rewards last year so taking some criticism Seely is expected. its down to them now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen's "half these players" are Danny Drinkwater who was a young player out on loan at lower league clubs mostly, Danny Simpson who was on loan at then signed permanently for Newcastle whilst Owen was at Man United plus Zieler who moved to Hannover a year after Owen joined. So, "half these players" are three who were mostly at other clubs during his three years at Man United. Thanks for the insight, Michael. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
