I want Ruud to go, one of my favourite players growing up, soured that as a manager here having seemingly given up. But my gut feeling is the gap is so big to the Championship we will be top 6 next season with or without Ruud. The board need to go, or failing that, Top needs to go. This is very quickly turning into a Mike Ashley's Newcastle situation.

I'd rather sell Kristiansen and convince Thomas to be our #1 next year, we need a huge clear out and Thomas is the least of our worries. Kristiansen would be fine in that league but it depends who the manager is, Kristiansen only sees himself as a traditional wingback, would rather keep Luke of the two but you're absolutely right, he's not done much wrong since forcing himself into the team.

That was absolutely dog water from Hermansen there, flapping all over the place.

Or Fatawu.... or Mavididi for about 8 games...

I don't care how bad he often is, Daka HAS to start over Vardy for the rest of the season. He's done more in about 5 minutes than Vardy has in multiple matches.

Ruud has been quite animated today, I've seen him barking orders and moving people around quite a few times, too little too late but it makes a change.

Thousands of fans clapping a counter attack where Soumare ran from the middle of the pitch almost to the touchline, was offered zero support until bilal arrived, who then ran it straight off the pitch, with zero options offered to either of them. This fanbase is done.

Just read the full exchange with context, I think I might need a beer

Edit, my brain fell out.

It was a plane?

Name another manager in world football who can make a few tactical changes and improve the attack by 300%, I'll wait. 5 more years.

Bilal offered absolutely nothing on that break, was practically marking himself out of the game.

And now people want him to stay in a "player leadership" role, as if during his time here players didn't collectively down tools and put in minimal effort under multiple managers (Not discounting the role those managers played in their own demise) as well as it being well known that him and other players in the past have had really unhealthy direct routes to Top. Absolutely love Vardy, he needs a statue and will be immortalised in our club history forever, but the credit he has gained borders delusional with a lot of our fans, we were lucky to have him, and his loyalty to the club when he could have gone to Arsenal is something we were privileged to receive, but the time has surely come to part ways. The championship offers us the perfect chance to actually replace him and give the replacement a full run. No doubt if Vardy stays he will score 10-15 goals next year, and will probably be taking minutes away from his replacement.

Luke Thomas is the best player at the club

Vardy needed to leave in Summer, it's wild that people want him to stay and guarantee we don't get a replacement for him next season.

Yep, I've been in a weird spot over the last few years, I'm a big Hamilton fan and loved the straight talking approach of Toto Wolff and his role in building Mercedes into serial winners, but I also really like Max, and also like Christian Horner for the work he's done with RB and the sheer amount that they have done for the drivers in the sport. Horners 1 on 1 interview for the Cambridge Union a few years ago was fantastic, it's been a strange few seasons after '21 with the fans being at eachothers throats and media whipping up the hatred so I'm glad to see things settling more and we can just appreciate how good Lewis is on his day and how fast Max is consistently in the last few seasons.

Max is just a special, special talent.

Bo Henriksen is a very interesting prospect at Mainz, they have fallen off recently but he took a relegation bound club in Feb last season to survival, then currently top 6 having lost key players in the summer. Squad depth looks to be catching up with them now, one to keep an eye on if form continues to struggle in the last few games. Can easily see him going to bigger and better in summer though.

Funnily enough I have a gut feeling we will be top 6 next season with or without RVN, but our chances of achieving that would be far higher with a lot of the managers others have given. Part of the child in me that absolutely loved RVN as a player still wants him to do well, even though i'd happily see him leave tomorrow. I just feel like the gap is so big to the prem, even with how disastrous we've been this season we will still have enough especially if we clear some dead wood, and promote Evans, Monga, Alves, Nelson and a couple of others.

Obviously none of us want relegation but since we would need to win basically every game and wolves would have to lose pretty much every game, we know we are going down. So with that in mind I hope it’s Sunday. Our fanbase needs a long, hard think about who we are and what we represent. Even if we were yo-yoing between the prem and championship and we’re struggling to make the next step up, we should be fighting tooth and nail, fully united as a fanbase and playing/coaching staff. We can accept trying and failing, what we cannot accept is not trying. (Well, unfortunately many of our fans seemingly can) That reset can only begin when King Power take some responsibility, actually publish an internal review to the fans, give us a full and transparent plan of how they are going to restore credibility, move on the people that need to be moved on whether that be sacked or given different roles, replace them with competent people who are not afraid to be straight and tell the ownership/board what the issues are, or failing all of that, sell the club. If King Power did all of that in the summer, I think most fans would give them more time, but they won’t. They will do another private internal review where nothing changes.

People on here turned their nose up at Eddie Howe before he went to Newcastle 🤣🤣

Ruud is being sacked and Faes is taking over as player manager.

Who is asking whether he should stay?

You seem hesitant mate, are you sure?
