The whole world smiles

Doesn't look like josh hull played for Manchester tonight does that mean we get him back for a game?

Agreed signed for 22 million sold for 40 million was here for 5 seasons. Won an fa cup, played in Europe for us twice scored some of the best goals I've seen. Underneath the Gucci backpacks and Lamborghinis seems a decent kid who's living his dream.

The snobbishness here reminds me of the harry winks signing. This is a very good signing for where we are as a football club.

Massive congratulations to the media team that was 1st class, easily the best piece of content they have ever done. Great to see them give a bit of exposure to a local band. I for one will certainly check them out on Spotify now.

If we hadn't given him 3 years he would have signed for someone else. Same with jannik. It's just what happens when players run down their consider it a free transfer tax instead of a transfer fee.

In fairness kante had a clause in his contract to go to a champions league club for 20 million (there were plenty that would have activated it) chelsea who weren't in Europe paid 32 million. Fofana they basically gave us 70 million for a cripple who had they not would have been stuck on a long term deal with his value slowly dying. They also paid 35 million for drinkwater who was clearly not their mentality wise and barely kicked a ball professionally after.

Yeah? Having a good tournament.

For those of you like me struggling to find the interview you need to download the LCFC app and it's on there you don't need to login or sign up to anything. God knows why the media department decided to hide a bloody good interview that could start to change peoples minds on a app but whatever.

Is there a video interview anywhere? Couldn't see one on YouTube, have to wonder what they are doing over there this is pretty basic stuff.

Claudio, nige (first stint), and MON would have all been underwhelming appointments on paper and are 3 of the greatest managers in our history.

You people are completely off your head if you think he signs a 1 year deal. Why would he? Where is the precedent for a out of contract 31 year old coming off a brilliant season where he was one of the best players in the league in his position and stayed completely injury free signing a 1 year deal? Would he sign a 2 year deal? I don't know, maybe, maybe not, it depends on his agent and what other offers he had on the table but you are essentially having a meltdown over an extra year in his contract that he might not have signed and you can sure as shit know the same people would have been moaning about rudkin if he left on a free.

A lot of people used to claim he was being left out of squads because he played for Leicester hopefully this will ease their paranoia in future.

I do feel deflated. I was a big fan of Enzo. But plenty of positives in all this. 1. Lots of question marks about Enzo's style of football in a league where we no longer had the best, most technically gifted players. He proved to rigidly stick to it in its entirety come what may so was we could of dodged a bullet there (we will never know of course). 2. The club gets 10 million plus for Enzo and his staff. In the current situation that is most welcome and could be the difference between selling or keeping KDH. Also if we started the season badly and we had to sack him (like a lot on here wanted a month ago) then it would have cost us 10 million plus to do it so in that hypothetical situation it's a net gain of 20 million. 3. If he was remotely successful He was going anyway he's an incredibly trendy pep prodigy that was always going to be in demand by the big boys. better now where the new man gets a pre season and a chance to sign his own players than in September when Man United sack Ten Haag. 4. Counter attacking football. We are perfectly placed to implement this with a rapid front 3 and KDH going box to box. In fact we looked at our devestating best last season when we had less of the ball. Enzo hated this and even after we scored great goals in this manner repeatedly expressed this is not how he wants to play. Hopefully the new manager will look at the situation and the players at his disposal and will be a bit more open to playing different ways.

Not sure how you can blame the club for this? We hired the right manager last summer so much so that a richer more powerful club want him and are prepared to pay us 8 figures to have him. If we hired the wrong manager last summer we stay in the championship and no one wants our manager.

This was just over a month ago.... When we were still in the automatic places, Yet the same fan base expects ironcast loyalty back it's hilarious!

Surely this applies to every manager?

I don't remember that. Any quotes to back this up or should we just take your word for it?

Anyone remember what the Enzo in/out poll was after the Plymouth game? I swear it was 80 percent plus that wanted him out. I was at the Bristol away game and the away support had turned on him bad. Why should managers show any loyalty when fans will turn on them at the first whiff of bad results and Owners will sack them In a heartbeat? Why should they be the only ones in the equation expected to show some loyalty?

Should have played him on his natural left hand side more. Didn't we have a deal in place for 12 million? I highly doubt we get relegated with him but **** it coulda woulda shoulda

He seemed to struggle after leaving Leicester but great to see him bow out on a massive high keeping Cagliari up after getting them promoted last season. Cagliari was his first sucess in management over 30 years ago so it's great that a story book career gets a story book ending. However I would not be surprised to see him pop up and take another Job in Italy somehow true football men like Claudio always really struggle to stay retired even as 80 approaches.

People are acting like Burnley are the only team in premier League history to come up from the championship and play possession based football!

His admission is neither hear nor there he was caught on camera strangling her. With regards to anger management In your heart of hearts do you think that's his idea or has he been advised someone pr savvy that if he wants a career in the media after he retires (which he has got) then it's probably a good idea? Look I don't want to dig out Danny Simpson I was and am a big fan. I just find the double standard on here quite amusing.

Admitting wrongdoing? He was on the police officers body cam strangling her when she was on the floor, what was he going to say? I slipped and landed on her!

Makes me laugh how Danny Simpson is a hero to the fans and loved but any notion of Mason Greenwood sends fans into a angry frenzy.

Good post. part of me agrees with you the other part of me thinks what do you expect? This is the same bloke who racial abused someone at a casino, who ended up on tag for violence who has on more than one occasion threw a career threatening two footed tackle at opponents. He has never asked to be a role model. I don't like the word but part of his appeal is that he is a chav, he is your working class white van man playing the game as the supporters think it should be played winding opposition players and fans up along the way.
