LCFC 2-0 Birmingham, post-match thread
chuck'em replied to Phil Mitchell's topic in Leicester City Forum
This league is terrible. We've been dog shit so far and have a 75% win rate. -
Kids always struggle after the first week back at school

Charlton 0-1 LCFC, post-match thread
chuck'em replied to Phil Mitchell's topic in Leicester City Forum
Yeah but Ryan Mason being **** is a bit out of character. Jones is just a ****, he can't help it. It would be unfair if they sent him off for it every week -
We spent about £32m on Fofana

Bilal El Khannouss (Stuttgart loan, official)

Bidding wars don't happen. The player will choose a club and then they will offer the minimum they can to get it over the line -
The problem is, it's not so easy to get rid of those players. We paid too much and gave too high wages to those wasters. We signed Skipp for £20m over 5 years. If we sold him now we would need to get £16m to break even for accounting purposes, which no team apart from us would pay. We can't just take the highest offer as a lot of posters suggest as we would eat a huge loss on this year's balance sheet. PSR means it would be better financially to keep him and never use him that to sell him if an offer for £10m came in. Sell him for £10m = £6m less to spend this year. Same situation with several other players. It's either a loan, use them or let them rot. PSR means you can't recover from poor recruitment unless you sort out dodgy deals with teams like Lyon

Completely irrelevant. Obviously at that price he would improve our squad, but you're not getting him for that price. Why not get Messi to improve our squad at £30k a week. Or Haaland. We can make up any number of scenarios where it would be good, but it doesn't mean it could happen
-
Shame so few of them have any real value, and the wages we are paying lowers the amount anyone would want to spend on them even further.

I agree with majority of this, but I'm not sure we can compare signings cost accounting for inflation. Football inflation is different. The year we signed Akinbiyi for £5.3m the top English transfer fee was £18m for Rio Ferdinand. The year we signed Soumare for approx £17m to top fee was Grealish to Man City for £100m.

Anyone talking about transfer embargos doesn't really know what they are talking about. There is no precedence for it for any charge the EFL might try to hit us with.

Has he always looked like Lee from The Office or have I just not noticed it before?

Conor deserves appreciation for his insane lats

Happy clappers are a problem, but they're not THE problem. We need someone to want to buy us at a value that King Power would accept and that won't happen if we plummet

Imagine being able to chant your managers name rather than thinking he's a clueless ****

The difference in quality and motivation between the two teams is depressing.

Didn't look confident at all

This commentator seems confused about javelin and football having different rules
-
Have you ever seen a side that looks so unthreatening when they attack? At no point do we look like we might actually score. Pathetic
-
I think they said Mcateer was a concussion sub so we should have 2 left
-
I think the ones that stayed did it to beat the traffic tbh

12 corners and 0.25xG is ****ing disgusting

He's even managed to turn Mads shit

Practicing for full time when they clap the twats off the pitch after another humiliation?
