So are we saying sell or keep. I say keep.

Well for all the crap players we've signed from southampton at least we got our best ever manager from there. No not russell martin, Nigel Pearson. If he does a quarter as well as Nigel I'd be delighted.

We don't have to sell as he has 2 years left on his contract unless we really are more skint that I thought. We should build the team around him. Hope he wants to stay🙏

All of the domestic and European titles have been decided and now the World cup is taking place. 

If each winning countries premier league team were to play there own national team  who would win.

For example here.

Arsenal  v England 

In Germany v Bayern Munich 

France v PSG

Would the World championships be different?

What is this new sporting director doing. Not heard a whisper from him

I hope to see nearly every senior player leave this summer and build a new squad around Aluko, Joseph, Gray, Wilson-Brown, Cartwright, Braybrooke, Page, Alves, Evans and Hutchinson. The likes of Briggs, Carr and Otchere may well make an impact too.

 

It will require a spine of the right experience, Pearson came in in the summer of 2008 with a squad in tatters and got it bang on. 

The spine is the most difficult thing to find. Plenty of unproven kids with a great deal of potential  but i think a spine of Soutter  + cm + cf is required 

We seem to be interested in people who have just been sacked. Why not someone up and coming?

Are you an ostrich?

Time will tell 😊

He only played 1 game last season and he was our best CB last season. He must have 2 years left on his contract. Faes and Okoli will leave, leaving us with Nelson Soutter and Vestergaard as our CBs. Aluko can fit in there too. We do not have to sell.

Andy King. A club great. A coach learning his trade. Not manager material. Don't think he ever will be. I thank him for all the memorable moments he's given me.

How do we stand with what type of manager we choose. An experienced Dyche type, a potential winner/loser type like Martin or a newby like Fuchs. Maybe an unknown from overseas. I really don't know.

As we don't have a manager, who decides which players leave?

We sold Soumare 

Did we? How much for?

Evidence of the penalty miss isn't anecdotal, but factual, and without a doubt it made the difference between us staying up and going down.

 

Izzet might have been in relegation squads but he never gave up but always fought (and tackled) hard, and I seem to remember that his effectiveness was hampered by injuries.  Speaking of tackling, did Maddison or Tielemans even understand the meaning of the word?

Can we agree that all of these players were special in their own way and contributed to a great period of Leicester success 

Hi.  Would it be possible to change my name to LE Renard

Are there any other examples of a former player similar to Fuchs going back to a club that’s feel away dramatically like us and rebuild the team? 
Genuinely be interested to know if there is anyone. 
I’m not convinced with him taking over. 


 

Well I'm thinking Carrick  at man u is an example. I would love Fuchs here. He's passionate determined. Loved that throw in v arsenal.  He performed the great escape at Newport. He's inexperienced as a manager but he's experienced at high level football. Welcome back Christian. 

Did any of the younger players. Page, Aluko,Monga,Silko, Gray and Soutter returning do well?

If he had started the season we would not have been relegated. He's everything our other CB's are not. So impressed. Him and Nelson next season please.

The new DoF, will he have a relegation clause.

I think if west brom do get a points deduction it will be next season not this. 

These players are the only ones that will sign for this club. That is the state we are in.

Honestly if no heads role in recruitment after this absolute shambles it’s unreal, we’ve had over the last few years Eduoard who did fook all, Caranza who did fook all, Aribo, Ramsey, Bare goals, A made up keeper and Couliby. Seriously just think if we’d actually recruited some half reasonable footballers instead!! Jokers

Totally agree and add in BDR Ajew and extended contracts for choudrey Thomas vesturgard. Not forgetting Okoli Skipp for £40m. Shocking management 

This is seriously our last  chance 

Daka had his best game in 5 years. When we can put pressure on teams like in the last 20 minutes we look threatening. Problem is defensively we are awful and the midfield offer no protection. The only way forward I see is to go for broke. We have scored a mid table amount of goals but bottom 3 conceded. It's 2 from 3 now. We must beat Wednesday.
