Old Fox

The quality they have even with their injuries compared to us demonstrates the gulf and also reinforces the rubbish summer window we had - the players we brought in to make us prem ready were Skipp, Okoli, BCDR and Ayew yet none should be anywhere near the 11 yet we have no Ndidi, Riccy, Fatawu - just shows what a mess it was ! can only see a 3 or 4 goal defeat can’t see how we even compete with them tbh - sad state of affairs

If you look back in the KS thread many on here were saying it’s time for him to go and he had lost it but whilst he undoubtedly had a dip he was still a massive dressing room leader and also one who was a winner and had the highest standards of professionalism - at the time it felt like a massive error in judgement and undoubtedly we would not have gone down had we kept him - when you look back we had a number of fantastic leaders in our champions team - Kasper, Huth, Morgan, Sharky, Kingy and Vards yet the club has done nothing to retain that in the back room or in the pitch with exception of Vards who is clearly a once in a lifetime striker - it’s baffling, confusing but when we look back probably the biggest error was letting Kasper leave !

So sad that a football club that was looked upon as a role model back in 15/16 to this - it is currently really painful being a foxes fan and that’s not about being entitled it’s that we have no identity, poor leadership, players and look miles away from top to bottom as a club. It hurts watching us and yes I agree with lots of the anger but it is actually just bloody sad and personally I feel sorry for Vards a proper legend being part of this complete farce.

Never ever ever a prem player - ridiculous that he is even in the squad let alone playing - like Skipp I have not worked out what he is actually good at!

Won’t sack him now as we would look ridiculous and the financial impact is too big!

and another 6 points lost - the time isn’t about the window closing but about the fixtures we will have blown in January Not sure it makes much difference as we needed a window above any other window ever seen as we probably needed 4 or 5 starters based upon the injuries we have and the lack of starting quality !

That’s a stinker

No chance - Everton and Ipswich will get more points than that - Wolves and Us alongside saints will be the 3 to go but it will be over 30 needed and we have not got a hope with this team, squad and manager.

A poor preseason, woeful transfer window in the summer, poor management decisions and a genuine lack of prem quality - we are miles away. The biggest tell tale for me is that at the end of last season I would not have believed that I would swap Ipswich’s squad for ours yet a clear transfer policy has made them the most likely to stay up out of the promoted sides - they have spirit, quality, organisation and a quality manager - RvN has no idea about our squad as his subs tonight were ridiculous and the difference between McKenna and the bozo’s we have had is huge. we will not stay up and any transfers should absolutely have an eye on next season than less we are going to pull some rabbits out the hat and that would mean spending a fortune!

Other than ruin a 15 year olds chances of developing as a pro and the club looking like they do not manage development - there are a number of players ahead of him in the queue who are more mature and worthy of squad places - he is undoubtedly a huge talent but like Alves the hype can kill you !

IF and it’s a big IF we want to have a go at staying up we need the mother of all windows and it needs to start now - there are about 6 or 7 we must keep and everyone else should be fair game as they won’t help us between now and the end of the season - I include Okoli and Cannon in that - neither are good enough for a prem squad like another 7-8 of the squad and if we can raise funds now and let RVN get quality starters in I would back him 100%!

Could not be more the opposite for me - he’s one of the players that got us relegated and although he stayed on it is only because no one would meet our valuation - hate his attitude and his inability to improve. he was one of the first I would have had out the building 18 months ago and be glad never to see him again in a blue shirt !

He’s a liability sadly and RVN has recognised that - he is frenetic and lacks the ability needed to play the way he wants his full backs to plays - be good for everyone if we can find an upgrade !

And pay 3 times the wages and he would have no interest in coming here !

Take him here in a heart beat - he would shake this lot up and either keep us up or shape us up to comeback and stay up!!

Because despite the current incompetence and lack of direction they have over the last 15 years invested and made the club infinitely better and more attractive than it ever was in its history. New owners can bring poor owners who don’t have the right intent let alone expertise and that could be the end of the club ! I would rather Top see that he needs to step up and maybe he cannot as his Dad was clearly a superb businessman and leader with maturity which only comes with experience so maybe Top can’t but I would still rather have these owners who have shown they love Leicester the City, community and our football club than a potential acquirer who could take us into the abyss! I maybe an exception but be careful what we wish for!!!

Well ran club, established in the prem, no threat of relegation and a fantastic manager with a clear identity .._____

And will have known it unlikely he will be a regular but financially he will retire a wealthy man - he deserves it as he was a great club man too and never moaned when sent on loan etc I for one old love him back as he would be better than what we have now

He has got some stuff right like dropping Faes and then Ward and the back room needs to help him and I defy anyone to have understood the qualities in the short time he has had - they got it wrong in the summer and time will tell if RVN is any good or not !

In that great escape season most of the bottom half was average and we had as much quality however we are miles away this season and I cannot pick three teams go to finishers below us and actually believe only saints are worse than us - sadly everyone else has better managers and more importantly better players as it stands!

You must have watched a different Wout to me - he’s garbage and in the same class as Amartey - car crash, inconsistent and over rates himself plus his barnet needs a cut!

Sadly so does everyone else above us and they have better players, organisation and management so we will not manage it - we will go down but this time it maybe for a while sadly! There are not 3 teams as poor as us - can’t see us staying up and preseason killed us with the minute Enzo left we have made dreadful decisions in management and signings

True and despite the criticism DCL will make a difference the way that Dyche sets them up!

Completely agree Palace and Wolves will win games as they have match winners in Eze, Mateta, Cunha and Guedes - all quality above anything we have plus they have the tools to be good defensively - that only leaves Everton and Dyche will grind out enough points plus there starting 11 is better than most of the bottom half. Sadly, I cannot see how even a tremendous window in January makes any difference as I think that we will need to win 6 or 7 games minimum and defensively we are way off it and we do not have enough game changers or creative players plus we are solely reliant on Vards. Our preseason killed us with Skipp, BDCR, Okoli and Edouard all being either bang average, over priced or just not being good enough to improve the starting 11 - it was probably the worst window we could have had and from the point EM left the board have got it woefully wrong.

No way he needs a loan to get used to men’s first team football - he’s not ready and could destroy him playing in this current team
