No one knows how well North Korea are run. No one’s at Leicester knows how to run a football club or would seem.

He’s walked into a bigger shit show than he imagined. This has massively highlighted his inexperience and that he wasn’t ready to make sweeping changes. The question is does he walk, before he becomes the latest fall guy? -
At this point I think the plan is to liquidate the football club and sell off all of the assets.
-
He’s clearly talented and if we stay on the current trajectory we’re on, he won’t ever be playing for us. UEFA doesn’t permit signing players from other countries under 18, unless the parents are moving for non footballing reasons. If we were in the EU, he could have moved at 16. We aren’t in the EU. He could in theory join Arsenal, Manchester City, Manchester City etc when he’s 16, as long as his parents consent and he’s getting adequate education.

I think I was landing in the multicoloured fields and got him back to back. Movement, of the lack of it in OG is painful.

Everything free in future, should just be thrown on the pitch.

The three games I always remember. Oxford at Home - Last day of the season. Not getting relegated in 1991. Newcastle at Home, as I’d never seen violence like it and I was quite young. I just remember pitch invasions, chairs being thrown, police horses, fighting and in between that we lost to Kevin Keegans team. Then the iconic 3-3 against Arsenal. Bergkamp was exceptional that night and when people talk about greatest ever Premier League players, I think everyone forgets literally how good he was.

Football has changed. We won’t!

Filbert Street was an aging ground, with poor facilities, questionable seating, suspect foot, you always got wet when it rained ….. The King Power however is a soulless, concrete bowl, however the atmosphere, with aging facilities that need updating, During the 15/16 the atmosphere was intense at time. Andrea Bocelli singing Nessun Dorma will always be one of my favourite ever moments. For that alone, King Power.

Any update on Silko Thomas? Stretchered off with a knee injury. Another in the ACL club? -
Soumare has been okay this season, however that’s more of an indication of how much lower our standards have become. We are a mess throughout. This squad needs gutting of all the high earners and needs a rebuild. For the £80k a week, he’s stealing a living.

Only himself

In fairness it isn’t the same back four. Castagne and Amartey were mainstays under Rodgers. Then Soyuncu and Evans were drafted back in. Vestergaard was training with the reserves. Justin wasn’t even registered.

Worst display of the season surely? -
Adjusted for inflation Adrien Silva - £22m Amartey - £10m Then we have Danny bloody Ward, at nearly £15m! Not forgetting Dennis Wise.
-
I’d imagine adjusted for inflation, Amartey and Benkovic are just as bad. Bear in mind, we paid the same for Benkovic and he was that bad he never played. Vestergaard needs to play with a quicker defender and a deeper defence. He’s not pressing high. The tactics for the players we have are all wrong. He was decent last season. Ideally we’d upgrade, however we are literally playing into his weaknesses. Albeit, he and Faes were rancid today. So weee the entire team. That first goal knocked the stuffing out of them, they looked shell shocked.
-
Then throw in friggin Amartey as well.
-
He’s no where near the worst defender we’ve ever had, even for the money we’ve spent on him. To start with, Benkovic, Faes, Benelouane, Dragovic, St Ledger ….. all worse than Faes.

We need: 1 x Left back 1 x Right back 2 x Centre back 2 x Centre midfielders 1 x Right wing 1 x Left wing 1 x Forward 1 x Head Coach 8 x New back room members 1 x Head of Recruitment 1 x Director of Football 1 x CEO 1 x Chairman And a partridge in a pear tree.
-
We should be looking to Sell him to be honest. Unfortunately I don’t trust us to get an adequate replacement.
-
Cooper wasn’t great, however RVN is basically a Dutch Lampard, or Gerrard. This is a failed experiment. We need an experienced head, to win this mini league of 4 teams at the bottom of the table.
-
This is gash
-
63 hours to go …..
-
We can’t get rid of everyone. He’d cost us more than £5m to replace.
