Maybe but who? I can't see that there's anyone. I think our only bet is a Soumare style loan where we pay the vast majority of his wage.

Hardly "out of the question" considering there likely isn't a single club that could both afford his wage demands and that wants him.

He should be used as the 4th winger. The sort of player that can do you a job here and there, will work hard and win you fouls, headers etc. Trouble was we relied on him to be the primary creator/goalscorer which was just mental. In a Championship side with Mavididi, Fatawu, Monga etc he'll be fine.

It's in the Leicester City forum to be fair.

I genuinely believe that with good players, a budget to spend, a good academy backing him up and time to implement a proper rebuild that Dyche is the man for the job. He'd be the new Nigel Pearson. Someone that comes in, cuts out all the shit, restores the dressing room in the manager's favour and I think he'd do a good job at trimming the wage bill. I also think that his teams are capable of playing good football but his first priority is winning games. Much rather a manager who works out the best way to score goals than someone who would rather make 95% pass completion for every player as we pass from side to side all day. Yes I think it shows how far we've fallen, but we have. Besides a manager like Rohl (who we're not going to pay the release clause for) we'll be looking at the likes of Ancelotti which is a monumental risk. We're not going to fluke another Enzo.

Might be in the minority but I really couldn't give two ****s about Leuven.

My order of preference based on that list would be; 1. Rosenior. 2. Rohl. 3. Ancelotti. 4. Carsley. 5. Ruud. 6. Martin. 7. Cleverley. 8. Wellens. 9. O'Neil. 10. Gerrard.

Is Ruud a scumbag? Seems a fairly nice chap to me. His crime is being a crap manager.

Exactly. The only issue for him is backlash from the supporters which we all know he doesn't care about.

Exactly. It's not like we're now all of a sudden going to put down £5m for Rohl. Next picks will be the likes of Gary O'Neil, Sean Dyche or even just keeping Ruud.

I'm afraid not!

My nan is good enough to keep Kristiansen out of the team.

Yeah if the lads got any sense then he'll be off to Man City pronto.

Left back isn't he? Would point towards Kristiansen leaving I suppose.

When we were relegated in 22/23 on 28th May 2023 it took us until the 16th June to sack Dean Smith and appoint Enzo Maresca. That's 19 days until we took action with a further In 23/24 when Chelsea announced they'd paid the release clause for Enzo it was the 3rd June 2024. We appointed Cooper on the 20th June. That's 17 days until we took action. This season we got relegated on the 20th April 2025. Here we are now on the 2nd of June with seemingly no plan in place. 43 days later.

You can and absolutely should blame the owners.

I've long since thought that the Premier League would absolutely mop up if they built their own Netflix style streaming platform. Not like they're short for cash as it is but yeah. They could broadcast all over the world and keep their own profits as opposed to sharing with these TV companies.

So long as prices are this unreasonable, people will resort to piracy. I have zero sympathy with the likes of Sky and TNT.

We were relegated on 28th May 2023 and appointed Maresca 19 days later. This year we were relegated on 20th April and here we are 40 days later with seemingly nothing agreed.

Yeah, autumn.

Spurs away in that crazy last game of the season goal-fest. He scored this exact goal IIRC.

The important thing for this summer is to set the framework moving forward so we're never flying this close to PSR punishments again. The summer of 2022 set us back 10 years because we couldn't go out and buy players for the squad refresh we so obviously needed. If the limit is £30m then we shouldn't be looking to spend £30m because if and when it all goes tits up, what then?

He's on £15k a week. I don't think he was "appallingly bad" in any game in 23/24.

There's a lot of divs on here who still think we should be targeting players that would have got into our squad under Rodgers. Hamza wasn't good enough for a side competing for Europe so these wallies think he's not good enough for a side that's likely going to be in and around the play offs in the Championship.
