Saints (H) Pre-match - The El Shatico
foxfan92 replied to iancognito's topic in Leicester City Forum
As long as we play players like Reid and Faes who either won't be here next season, or shouldn't be here in the first place, and don't give any youth a chance, I'll be happy. -
Well we've not shown any fight this season, so it'd still be an improvement.
-
So much going on (in my own life) I don't think I even read the title properly.
-
Not his most important goal, but his strike against Mignolet from about 25 yards is often the first goal I think about when mentally picturing goals Vardy has scored. I think it just showed how great we were that season.

It is a huge shame. I know wages are a massive issue, and each year that ticks by he'll be less effective (time catches up with us all), but I still think if he was here next year in the championship and we play to his strengths he'd score a bucket load of goals for us and seriously help our quick return. I think part of the reason he's looked less effective this season is because in spite of his age he's been a regular starter, and often left on the pitch. We needed to have someone decent enough to offer him proper competition (because even fit Daka didn't really do that), and ease his burden. Less minutes and I think he's more effective. I fear he's going to be as impossible to replace as Kante and Mahrez, and we're going back to the yo yo club we were in the 90s and 2000s with no guarantee of any stay in the seasons we do go up, and no guarantee of promotion straight back when we go down. It makes me feel sick thinking about how quickly we have declined, and the harsh reality we've got to face, that the dream we've all sharing for the last decade may finally be truely over.

What’s the plan for the next five games
foxfan92 replied to JimmyC74's topic in Leicester City Forum
If we can't sack RVN before June to comply with PSR can we at least put him in Gardeners Leave and let someone who'll actually play the players most likely to be here next season, ideally with a focus on youth, be in charge? -
Will he do the honorable thing and walk?
foxfan92 replied to Glasgow fox's topic in Leicester City Forum
I am under the impression that Ruud is so keen to talk to the board because he's after his relegation bonus. Someone (probably Rudkin) messed up when writing the new contracts for the manager and players and inserted a bonus for going down and a 20% wage increase, with an option to extend their contract. It's the only explanation for the teams RVN puts out each week and why more than half the team are playing like they couldn't give a toss, or are completely inept. -
Liverpool (H) - Pre-Match Thread (20th April)
foxfan92 replied to StanSP's topic in Leicester City Forum
Don't you mean "when" we beat Liverpool? -
Not seen this one mentioned anywhere. I don't often post these even when I find them first, but I've seen him and he wasn't terrible that time. Not suggesting it's all too reliable, but it got me thinking. Would this be our first Avenger? https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/leicester-city-interested-winger-dubbed-10105991

I'm beginning to worry you might be right...
-
Damn it. I wish I'd done this months ago. I had no money left for my FF team so put Faes in, as the last placed sub, just because I could afford him and knew he'd play. First time he's been in my team and will never be among the starting 11, just because I couldn't afford anyone else. Why oh why didn't I do that sooner?
-
Mads Faes Coady Thomas Justin Soumare N'didi Kristiansen Daka Khannouss Vardy It's the only way to go.....
-
Wrongly. I thought I'd clear up any ambiguity for you.

2? Mods. Someone is spamming.

Do you promise?

This is so cruel. The weekend over, but our misery this week prolonged to Monday.

I think you're being overly negative here. We should be having positive titles to reward moments of rarity this season. Things like: Award for the full back who made a forward pass. Award for the defender who tracked their man. Award for the player who had a shot on target. (Although if we can't find anyone for this, maybe: Award for the player who attempted any kind of shot). Award for the pensioner who lasted the full game. There must be at least one player who did some of these things once this season, maybe 🤔

A shot on target
-
I'd have loved us to just give the kids a go at this point. But RVN seems to have dismissed that idea so more of the same I guess...
-
You think we might get relegated?
-
And the manager less tactically inept?
-
Under 18s team maybe. That's why RVN won't let them play. They don't understand his game plan.

Let's try: Mads Faes Coady Thomas Justin Soumare N'didi Kristiansen Daka Khannouss Vardy It'll be the last thing anyone expects ...
