Do you not realise that you have to take a punt on players. I'll give you Bertrand, should never have touched him but I think that was more Rogers doing. Soumare was being raved about as the next best thing. Just won the league with his team and classed as a great box to box midfielder. No one knew that when he crossed into the UK he was less box to box more blade to blade of grass. Daka the same. Chelsea wanted him at one point, but who don't they want. You can't say that because they didn't work out here they were rubbish. Look at Perez who we signed from Newcastle. Great at Newcastle, shit here, great at whatever club he's at now and managed to get in the Spain squad.

Steve Cooper: The Tactics Thread
blue army 1988 replied to SecretPro's topic in Leicester City Forum
But we are in the Premiership this season. By your ideas, if we had kept the same team, we should win the league. -
Seems like he was bought because him and Enzo are "friends". No way he's going to get a sniff at that club with some very good players ahead of him
-
And then they roll out "respect the ref" campaigns. Ridiculous.

Steve Cooper: The Tactics Thread
blue army 1988 replied to SecretPro's topic in Leicester City Forum
I think we saw against Tottenham we don't have the players to play it out the back in the Prem. We kick it long to halfway line. Hopefully win the header and then pass it backwards to defence/holding midfielder and start from there. Long winded and risky process but less risky than the other team closing us down quickly. -

I think if 🤞 we get another striker then Mavididi will come in for BDCR and he will be more of a bench player. -
PSR breaches would be on Whelan. She is the financial person of the club. All money and accounting would go through her. Yes he may put certain things on the table, but to sign financial aspects off would be Whelan. It wasn't his decision to keep or sack Rodgers. I do agree he has to be accountable with the football operations strategy side.
-
I agree tbh. While I'm not 100% Rudkin in or out, I do think over his tenure he's had a number of great hits and a number of misses too. I feel like he's being scapegoated for the overall club. We are in this problem because of money. He isn't the money man of the club.
-
Absolutely amazed Whelan doesn't get slated on here. IMO she's been the worst.
-
He'll be starting soon. If not on the bench for a little while but he will be in the team for the second part of the season
-
First off I'm not patronising people. It gets so irritating when people are saying why he doesn't play etc etc. Like there isn't a reason, just Cooper being an idiot. I've been around on Foxes Talk for many years to understand that's over 50% of our fan base but it just got to me today. If people did feel patronised then I apologise. Secondly, you've said what a load of tripe but not given any reason for it. Would love to hear your opinion.
-
Potter was shown around the training ground and the stadium. I know that for a fact. Why we he didn't become our manager has many different rumours. The backroom staff rumour doesn't seem very true as we were extremely light in that department anyway and most new managers always try and bring one or two old faces with them. I heard it was more down to commitment to the job.
-
No we don't really know that. But if I had to play the odds, I would say the state we are currently in and the uncertainty of our future with points deduction and selling players, I wouldn't have thought many managers would have wanted to come. Premiership or championship experience or foreign. But like you say, we don't really know anything.
-
Press rumours that he wanted to come. Maybe because he kind of played the same style of Enzo. Not one of us truly knows he was even in for the job.
-
He's obviously on the bench to replace Vardy part way through the game. Vardy can't play the whole game so we need someone to sit on the bench and come on after 60 mins. Unfortunately that is Mavididi at the moment. How do people not get that?
-
The problem is, we didn't have anyone queuing up to be our manager either.
-
I'll put a bet on now that he goes to Chelsea
-
Do we know it is him or hands them out? Or does he state what he wants, and then it goes to Whelan to be signed off to say we can or can not afford that?
-
I think Whelan is worse tbh. We are in this position because of finances and money. Not players. Yes, some players have been bought and were rubbish. You could argue that before be bought them they were playing well. And yes, some are on ridiculous wages. We are in this mess because of money. And who is the money person with the club, Whelan. Seems very fashionable to slag Rudkin off at the moment.
-
I would love to know all the offers he got and where from at the end of last season.
-
100% but she seems to mostly get away with it on this forum.
-
Im a bit confused. If Whelan doesn't get involved with football matters then why is she at the football club? Apart from something like merchandising, I don't really see much for her to do if it doesn't fall under "football matters" Also, rumours again but the person who told me has links to the club, Rudkin wanted Rogers gone along time before he was sacked. It was Whelan who really fought for him to stay in his job and carry on.
-
I don't understand why Whelan doesn't get the same stick that Rudkin gets
-
Who is good enough that would have come to this sh*t show?
-
I kond of get Rogers complaining. Know one really knew and maybe he was sold a dream that never paid off. I'm baffled by Cooper complaining. Surely he knew this when applying for the job. Any Leicester fan, or even football fan, could have told him this.
