And that's never changed. Baffling

Sad it may be, but it's also one of the few things that can make you feel like a kid again as taking the time off builds up the excitement.

That's the one big I'd completely disagree with. His best attribute by far is his ability to take up good positions as shown by some of his goals last year. But otherwise, complete agree. Never seen somebody look so out of their depth in terms of the speed of the game, as he never gets it straight under control and always needs an extra half second. Maybe that will improve but otherwise he's never going to cut it at PL level
-
Jeez. Really is like a different type of player. Standard not great but basically every type of goal you could score there, tonnes of great chances created, the ability to dribble past a man. Ultimate confidence player if there ever was one.

The only company where I would say it will probably look better in game. Always that way with their games. And there was something off in this trailer with a kind of glow around things (but it's also zoomed in highlighting things). Just had a look at some of the screenshots and they are utterly ridiculous so no doubt it will be fantastic.

Except for Leicester fans. Most of them hold academy players to higher standards and seem desperate for them to fail. -
Biggest compliment is that he looks like he's got some nerve/bollocks which seems in complete contrast to the perception of what he was like. To come back after the relegation, the 2 awful loans, the general negativity around him and back into this shit show and actually look comfortable is very impressive.

Can't terminate his loan outside the transfer window

We agree that he's a moron but it's undeniable that they should mix it up. They're potentially the worst team in PL history. They couple of times they have actually chipped it in behind (not just booted it up there), they've created a chance/half chance. Then think about the ridiculous goals they have given away this season from trying to play it out from the back. It's beyond embarrassing. It's exactly the same with us this season. Obviously just punting it long will not work but you only have to look at the template of the clubs that have avoided the drop and most of them try to pass the ball but aren't afraid to go direct when needed.
-
Well he's right isn't he? They're playing at an even lower pace than us and end up just giving it away in midfield anyway after turning all the way back. The fact that I'm agreeing with Gary Birtles tells you how painfully obvious it is
-
Actually looked like Ayew left something on him deliberately. About the only thing he can do properly
-
Ayew is the most negative footballer I've ever seen
-
The bar is low but at least it's 3 young players on the bench, along with Woyo still being alive, and even the removal of Soumare.

This is my dosage of other fan interaction. Majority of content creators aren't the sharpest tools in the shed, and I'm at my limit for depressing Leicester news/discussion

Been in this camp for months now. And whilst it's extremely likely they Rudkin is useless, we actually don't have any real evidence of this because we don't know what he's actually responsible for. And if he is so awful, then you sack him. All roads lead back to Top/the ownership.
-
And the reality is that this could be true. Could suffer a horrible injury at any point and completely scupper his career. You'd like to think cooler heads would prevail and he'll be given a clear pathway and other assurances that sees him stay, but for the reasons you've listed, it's probably unlikely that it happens.

Worst thing you've done in a job without being sacked?

People like you ruin my working day . Happens all the time anyway and most of the time, what's shared isn't much of an issue. -

dmayne7 replied to Gamble92's topic in Leicester City Forum
I wish this was true just because it would be one of the dumbest things I've ever heard . But then I also don't as it would make you a spineless **** This could backfire very quickly! -
It absolutely is how it works. It wasn't an obligation to buy him, just an option. If they deem he's not worth that value after what is effectively a year long trial, then why should they pay that? The option exists because often the loaning club is paying a sizeable loan fee so it's essentially a discount off the final value if they do want him, plus it also protects them for taking a punt in the case that the player has a breakout season and there value suddenly sky rockets. As the 'selling' club, you're hoping that it incentives the other club into going for that player as the optics of the deal are much better generally. The fault, as always, lies with us and our decision to loan these players out without and guarantee of selling them

Only been supporting us for a couple of years then? I give you Brendan Rodgers. -
Should have been overturned so justice served I guess. Awful pen

Laughable that people think he's better than Kasper was. Think some people seriously underestimating that we had one of the best in the world for so long

Nobody but at least a few can say they haven't been much worse. FB has completely nose dived
