People need to let go. Talk about this or Shakey as number two. Ridiculous. Can't people see that we need to move on with complete fresh ideas.

With a few already ruling themselves out, I would welcome him here. I don't think he carries many prisoners or passengers, which is exactly what we need right now.

For me some players in this squad need to be told in no uncertain terms "your time has come to an end as the club is no longer benefitting." That needs a strong character, but I really do feel we need to start with a blank piece of paper so to speak and start afresh, with some changes in Jan especially. In that list for me: Morgan Fuchs Mahrez Huth James Musa Ulloa Amartey Benny Hamer All for different reasons. Mahrez needs to move as he is stale, going backwards and needs to grow beyond us now. Morgan, Fuchs and Huth are past it. James isn't fit enough. The others aren't good enough. Moving forward we need to build a team around Kasper,Maguire, Chilwell, Ndidi, Gray and Iheanacho as they have the talent to take us forward in my opinion. I know Nacho was poor the other night, but I think he will come good. I would make Kasper our captain with immediate effect. Vardy for me has another year left in him, however we need to become less dependant as the current tactics are based around him. Pick for now but phase out for Nacho gradually.Maybe let him go next summer as one of our all time greats. Initially I would go along the lines of: GK: Kasper (Captain) DC: Maguire DC: Dragovic DC: Simpson DMC: Iborra (just sit and mop up) MR: Albrighton MC: Ndidi ML: Chilwell AMC: Gray ST: Vardy ST: Slimani Off the pitch someone needs to be accountable for the awful transfer dealings. Goodbye Rudkin and head of recruitment and I would let the new manager decide if we replace or restructure so the two sides can merge again as in the current system, left doesn't appear to be talking to right.

One or two talking about keeping as number two. That's exactly what we don't need. We must cut all ties to 15/16 from a coaching side otherwise the players will get the sentiment card out. Stowell should be ousted too. We need a fresh set of faces who will see players on merit and get some fresh tactics in. Sorry Wes, but you and Fuchs are the first two to take a break for me.

I would try and tempt Eddie Howe or Sean Dyche away from definite smaller clubs than us that they are at currently. They have the prem experience. Talk of Ancelloti or Benetiz is pure fantasy. Newcastle are massive and the potential is there. Ancelloti has managed some of the biggest clubs in Europe. Not a chance.

Away to Swansea and a new look away team please. I would go: GK: Kasper LB: Chilwell DC: Dragovic DC: Maguire DR: Simpson MC: King MC: Iborra MC: Ndidi AMC: Mahrez AMC: Gray ST: Vardy Go there and put in an away performance like Pulis might do. We need to try and get points on the road again.

Still acting like the caretaker manager, not the manager. Stamped his mark on the team nil.

The players are getting no direction clearly. Should have dropped sentiment 12 months ago. Still hoping the same old group deliver the goods. Drop sentiment now Thais!

I'm reasonably happy with this starting XI. These are the sorts of games we can do 4-4-2 and have a go. Let's have a performance lads please.

As Shakey would say, I think the players will actually be "at it" for once in this match and we will get something that resembles a performance. I think 2-0 win and we can climb to the dizzy heights of 13th.

Yes, I agree. Worrying comment. I would like to think they are concentrating on retaining possession and not treating the ball like a hot potato!!

I imagine Shakey is a regular visitor to the tea lady for the biscuits that comes with the tea!

The club has got bone idle since the glory of winning the title in my opinion. Sloppy, sloppy recruitment and management. The majority of us wanted a fresh start in the summer, we were crying out for it. I hope that we can get some sort of form going.

Does she even exist nowadays?

The club at the moment is a joke top to bottom. Anything less than a win and it's another failure for Shakey. If we lose this and then at Swansea next week, then it's bye bye everyone from Rudkin down. I'm hoping we have it in us to go and take 4 points min.
