We're going for the jugular with a furry dice and a condom as weapons

Of course we get a manager in who we could have got the day after Marti left. Brilliant.

Sean Dyche has either just been paid a lump sum £10m or is still on the books at Forest at approx £90k a week. No way he's giving that up to come here. He will take a few months off and land a decent job in the summer. There is no chance we can attarct anyone like that.

Tactically brilliant from Marti. Made sure the West Brom keeper had nothing to do all second half so the poor bloke was freezing. When the only shot on target came in the 93rd minute the keeper didn't stand a chance. Man's legs had gone numb due to inactivity. That's different level tactics people. We are lucky to have him.

Bristol City 2-2 LCFC - Post Match Thread
stox259 replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
They changed it at half time and it absolutely did us. They pushed up on our full backs and stepped ten yards up the pitch (hardly a tactical masterstroke) but Marti and the players just couldn't react. There was space all over the pitch in behind their full backs and not once did we look to play there. All we did was retreat, retreat, retreat and never tried to proactively change what we were doing. Typical formulaic manager who does things by his book and if that doesn't work he has nothing else. Football cannot be fully planned and you will never eliminate all the unknowns no matter how much the textbook says you can. Football will always be chaos and you have to react accordingly. Marti doesn't have the tools or knowledge to react and he certainly doesn't have the players to force his style and we come out as winners. As much as our players are poor (we do not have one genuine premier league quality player imo) Marti is the problem. -
I am worried. Genuinely. We are awful . Truly. We don't have any fight in us. We don't have a striker at the club. We have no money to change it and we have a poor manager. We had a bit of fear factor first few games being a prem team coming to this division. We have lost that now. If Cov played us tomorrow they'd batter us. If we were to get a 9-12 point deduction takes us to 8 - 6 points. I cant see where wins are coming from. Not gonna lie i'm bleak. Am i wrong? Genuinely depressing how far we've fallen.

Mainly transfers out of the club. Rarely did she get involved with incomings except for payment structures. It was never her say on who we should sign and how much for. More about how the deals were structure. Hence the "are you sure John" every single year.

Whelan in 2020 "you sure want to spend that much John? Its not really in line with our affordability projections and we have not seen a great return on the expenditure" Rudkin "Shut up Sue, it'll be fine" Whelan in 2021 "you're absolutely sure you want to spend that much money John? That's definitely not in line with our affordability projections and we have not seen a good return on the expenditure" Rudkin "Shut up Sue, it'll be fine" Whelan in 2022 "you can't spend that money John. You are definitely over the line of our affordability projections and we are now losing money from the return on expenditure" Rudkin "Shut up Sue, it'll be fine" Whelan in 2023 "we are now relegated John. We are way over the line of our affordability projections and we have to change the the complete structure of the footballing side of the business. Lose the high earners and re-evaluate the whole footballing side of the club" Rudkin "Shut up Sue, it'll be fine" Whelan in 2024 "we are still way over the line of our affordability projections but we have a chance to change this. Lose the high earners and balance the numbers. Do not waste the precious money we have" Rudkin "Shut up Sue, it'll be fine" Whelan in 2025 "we are in a mess. the numbers do not balance at all and we have huge outgoings and not enough player asset values to cover it. I've warned you about this for years" Rudkin "Shut her up Top, it'll be fine"

If I was manager I’d be saying to Daka, Soumare, Souttar, Skip and others you’re not part of my squad. You’re not good enough. You can’t train at the fancy training ground. If you want to play football you have to look for a move. Fair play to Enzo and Pearson back in the day. They forced squad changes. That’s the type of manager we needed. We have to force players to either not play and train or find a move. Fair too easy for players to pick up massive wages, train at one of the worlds best training facilities and still play and be no where near the standard this club needs.

I dont think we'd get relegated under Dyche in the championship lol. I wouldn't be so confident with RVN or some of the other clowns linked to the job. Dyche is a safe appointment and at the minute I am happy with safe. We can't afford to take a risk. At least Dyche will know how a club should be run and could offer experience to those at the top.
-
I think the argument for Dyche is due to the need for someone 'who knows what they are doing' at the top end of the football club. Dyche would know how a football club should be run. It would be hoped he'd help guide Top in structuring the club to start working. I'm not a fan of Dyche but I can definitely see the need for a bit of competence and experience at a top level in this club.

Ruud van Nistelrooy - New Manager - Official
stox259 replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
I have never hated a Leicester City manager before. Disliked plenty but in all other managers we have had I could see a plan. All previous managers i've thought had 'earned' the chance to manage this great club. Gained experience elsewhere and been successful and therefore (some more than others) deserved the chance to manage us. What on earth the board saw in RVN i'll never know. And why on earth RVN ever thought he was good enough to manage us i'll also never know. I can't stand Ruud. I can't see any method in his thoughts. I can't make sense of his formulaic substitutions and the fact he picks Patson Daka in the starting 11 loses any slight respect or thought I had for the man. I have seen worse Leicester City teams in terms of players, but i've never seen one so poorly coached and so tactically useless. Ruud is completely out of his depth. That phrase gets thrown around but its never been more evident than it is watching RVN manage in the premier league. He absolutely, unequivocally and without doubt must not be our manager next season. -
He really is as bad as everyone says he is. The biggest issue with this club is recruitment. its so so poor. Players like Daka are the reason we are in such a mess. Awful player, on a long contract, on massive money. Repeat throughout the team.
