very un-labour like to be going after the welfare system also, it was a big no no when the other lot tried it i seem to remember

So the writer of that tweet reads the article & puts his spin on it for dramatic affect The Denmark head coach informed Kristiansen of his decision ahead of the squad announcement and said he did not take the conversation lightly.(thats Riemer didn't take it lightly) But ultimately, he couldn’t include five full-backs in his 23-man squad. The four selected are Manchester United’s Patrick Dorgu, Wolfsburg’s Joakim Maehle, Eintracht Frankfurt’s Rasmus Kristensen, on loan from Leeds, and Mads Roerslev, now on loan at Wolfsburg from Brentford. “It was a bad conversation for me,” Riemer said of his discussion with Kristiansen. “I think he deserves more. “It's purely a tactical choice in relation to what I want. I don't want five full-backs, and tactically the profiles fit into what I want. “He took it very professionally and like a man. Of course he didn't agree, but he understood the explanation well.” I would expect any player not making a squad to be disappointed but someone putting their own spin on how the conversation went v's how the manager said it went, just for likes (& i know you just forwarding what you have seen) is it a bit off. I'm only posting to save the next 4+ pages being a pile-on on Kristianson thinking he barricaded the door not allowing Riemer to leave the room & then laid on the floor kicking & screaming.

Best Leicester Player From Almost Every Country

If they go up it’s an easy £5-8m buy for them which I’m sure they will do.

Why do ‘fans’ do these jerk reactions all the time, seem to remember a Harry Kane getting pelters at Tom’s age didn’t turn out to bad for that lad.

Man C need to stop playing the kids Joking aside they have had a terrible season for them and they will be hurting with how much they have fallen behind Liverpool..so what will they do?? They spent an unprecedented £180m in a winter window, can only imagine it will be double that in the summer + they will have players like Rodri back, whilst it was great O’Reilly got a game the other day I’m not sure how many of these lads will play in the league or big games next season. I imagine the majority of those top 6/7 clubs will be buying big in summer just like they did after our season win because they have been shown up again and we know they don’t like that!

Must have missed that Chilwell got a loan to palace

Cat amongst the pigeons so it’s a fight for 2nd now IRE/ENG

Looks like the 2 favourites in the running to replace Pollard are Joe Simmonds & Jacob Umaga. 2 very different styles but 2 very good options hopefully the new coach gets a say because it will determine the way Tigers will play
-
This but 1 change please, Coady for Vesty..Vestergaard is not a CB for a fight at least Coady will put his head in & be the lesser of 2 evils.

Man C have just brought a 15yr (16 this year so like Monga) highly rated goalkeeper from Hibs for £230k, that figure makes me chuckle when a few think we will be getting a few £m when Monga goes but the interesting thing is in the same article it name checks at least 3 other highly rated keepers he will join, all aged 17. The chances of this soon to be 16yr old working his way through just those 3 + anyone else his age or older standing between him and Edison to take a 1st team slot must be some outrageous odds + take until he’s well into his 20s. If/when Monga goes he will be up against another 4 or 5 Monga’s + better players vying for the same position & whilst if his reasons are to get the best training and test himself would be admirable the odds of playing 1st for Leicester before Man C are greater. He’s more likely to spend a season in the U16/17s in Man C academy before being loaned out to a Luton, then the following season a Hull and so on, when & given how Ruud is talking he could have had 2 or 3 seasons in our 1st team (hopefully) at a higher level than what he may get in the next 3 seasons. I also think some are thinking to far ahead, 15/16 into men’s football that is a massive leap mentally, physically, financially and 1 that could destroy him and see him out the game in his early 20s, thinking Ravel Morrison (financially), Jack Wilshire (physically) & a 2020 study of just 3719 players recorded 13.6% suffered from mental health issue attributed to pressures of playing, I’d imagine that percentage is higher now.
-
Now you done S4 and waiting for S5 to drop probably next year, have you started GEN V there are 2 seasons & it gets even madder than The Boys if that was possible.
-
Not sure I can agree with that how many of the best young playing talent have come out of Man C academy yet didn’t play for Man C, Delap etc who will get a good move this summer but off the back of playing for Ipswich not because he came from Man City, Christ even Cole Palmer had to leave Man C to get game time.

Development/Youth Squads 2024/2025 Thread - U18/U21
BKLFox replied to davieG's topic in Leicester City Forum
Really?? For sure we need to be showing him the expected path to the 1st team, which it seems is happening by way of 1st team training, put in travelling parties, 121s with Ruud & next is into the squad but everything else is all down to him & how wide his eyes & ears are open. He's probably mates with Tyrese Noubissie he'll be advising what it's like at Man C, he's only 15 also & aware he has an injury but where is he within the Man C academy & 1st team route, was he playing in the older age groups remembering that Man C academy unders are all going to be of similar / better quality as they go up. Nyoni's a little different in that he's already 17 which is a big jump in development terms, but he's still not played in a premier league game (sat on the bench for 4 games granted) then just 4 times overall in the FA/EFL cups & 26mins in a position pointless Champions league game which is great don't get me wrong but Liverpool can afford to give him those minutes when they have games or qualification all wrapped up bring on the kids. We are fighting relegation & yes how worse can it get but if it doesn't pan out we could destroy him as well as the whole structure of the squad (which yes needs knocking down anyway) if it does go pear how do you get the others back n side....looking at a managers view not fans we want something to happen but the managers gotta skirt around the full picture before making wholesale changes i guess. -
Development/Youth Squads 2024/2025 Thread - U18/U21
BKLFox replied to davieG's topic in Leicester City Forum
I get the excitement but he’s 15 and still growing, I believe he’s only a small lad 5ft 2in or something like that, could be hereditary and he’ll always be a small lad or in the coming 4yrs his head won’t know what his legs are doing & it could all got flat for him regardless of where he is. Not sure chucking money at him will do the trick, can you even chuck that amount at him at 15 anyway & would he end up being another Morrison, I’ve made it? Delicate times, all the club can do is to continue to nurture whilst advising him on its vision for him, after that it’s all on him and any grima wormtongue that holds his ear. -
Of course it’ll be PSR driven coupled with the boards inability to appreciate value or negotiation. Don't think we will ever hear the full truth, is Kasper partly to blame or was he happy to drop from £140kpw to say £70-80k or below if the club was saying due to psr we can only offer x but he didn’t want that or were they set on just clearing any head to reduce overall costs 🤷♂️ Think we can safely say it wasn’t Rodgers fault seeing where he is now and how he has spoken about him since.
-
I do agree with you Nalis the system sucks but there are a few under the impression that he’s going because we’re not giving him a run in the 1st team
-
People can blame the club all they want & thinking giving him a game will make him stay, haa... This will be down to him we can offer anything you want but end of the day most young lads will follow the big badge for the 'likes'. Gone have the days of managers like Fergie saying to the young lads don't chase the money, chase the dream of being the best you can be & stay where you will play in order to make that happen..with the added The money will follow once you have achieved that dream. He'll go to Man C, he'll get more than he would here but he's 15 so its not going to a great deal more, he certainly won't be turning out for Man C 1st team anytime soon especially after the season they have had. All the big clubs will be spending just like that did after we won the league because they have all been shocking & a 15/16yr lad will not be jumping ahead of £80m+ established talent, he'll hang around being loan'd out & eventually sold for £20-30m to a middle sized club when he's 20 like all the others they have had. It really would be in his best interest to stay put make his way into the 1st team getting games under him & that big move will happen, we know he won't stay but atleast he could be part way / or firmy established by 18-20yrs old & then that move could be completely different...but sadly we know what he will do & what those around him will be saying.

Tom Wilson-Brown got his 1st 90mins today in a Killie XI SPFL reserve league clash v Dunfermline which Killie won 2:1 I can't see much in the way of reports to see if he had a good game or not but it's not long finished so maybe later tonight/tomorrow morning there might be something published locally.
-
Read the 1st reports today from the red tops that Southampton will sack Juric end of the season and their top target is Danny Rohl as he was after Martin was sacked but turned it down then. With connections there would he now likely go there even if we did approach?
-
Where as Burnley have not conceded since Xmas that’s 12 games with 2x 22yr olds forming their CB pairing. Rest of that defence has a 22yr old keeper, 21yr LB and for a bit experience a 29yr old RB They have only conceded 9 goals in 38 games & only lost twice, to many draws keeping them behind SU & Leeds but that much mocked Scott Parker certainly has them being the most rounded team in the division and on paper probably the best suited to stay up out of those 3.

Would certainly love to keep him 👍

Could say that about the league also this season, a single club only had to keep pace with Liverpool
