They were both awful managers. Cooper on the face of it had a better a record, but he also had a full squad to choose from. Ruud had Ndidi and Mads missing for long parts and Abdul was injured for his whole reign. On the other had, I think Cooper was more tactically aware then Ruud, and that kept us in most games. On the whole, glad to see the back of both.

Title of the thread could easily be Leicester City: A Tale of Rise and Ruin. Top really has fuched everything up his dad built.

Green at 3, I'm not sure which bright spark thinks that's going to work. -

If India want to win here, they need better bowlers then Krishna. All that supposed talent and he's the best they've got. With Bumrah missing 2 out the next 4 tests, this will be an easy series win for England. -
Since we've gave a useless owner and DoF, we need a manager who can lead and stabilise the club. I'm not particularly fond of Dyche, but he's fits the bill of what the club needs now.

Shouldn't Macia get as much credit for players signed when Puel was here, since he was chief scout. Apart from Diabete, who I believe was recommended by Puel's son, most others were Macia recommendations.
-
Given his history of developing youth, was he the reason we blooded so many academy players. It will be interesting to see how he gets on.
-
Played 14 against 16 for large parts of the game and we still took it to them. We needed our 10 to stand up like Russell did for them, but he sadly went missing, just like in the semi final. The forwards were fantastic.
-
Also gave the only 2 scrum pens when we were in the Bath 22. Strange the only time we infringe in the scrum is when we are near the Bath tryline. Last pen was blantly holding on, pen for us. Obano with a couple of borderline tackles too. Lots of 50, 50s butmost go against us, 7-1 pen count.
-
Karl Dickson, doing his best to hand Bath the title.
-
His reputation as a leader hasn't taken a hit with our relegation. Together with that and his PL experience, I reckon we'd get about 5M for him. Relegation clause means his 70k/week salary is probably much lower too.
-
He's rubbing there noses in it. I suppose they're going to go back to booing him now.
-
Considering Top is obsessed with Man City, I'm surprised they haven't given it to Brian barry murphy. He'll also be good for our youngsters.
-
Ayew, if he stays isn't playing on the wing. Him and Daka will be our strikers with Evans as our 3rd choice.
-
He's in the last year of his contract, nobody's going to pay a fee for him. He'll go on loan next season and then leave for free. We seem to be specialists in that.
-
What a game, the collisions were brutal. We made it closer then it should've been, with all the missed kicks. Radwan what a player, now that's what you call a January signing.
-
There's an apathy that surrounds the club, from the ownership all the way to the fans. Even when we got relegated, there was no anger, just a shrug of the shoulders. I heard fans say, we're won the PL and FA cup, we've achieved everything. That ambition that Vichai had, has gone, Top would sell if he got a satisfactory offer.

Thank you Rangers

You cant really judge a player when they're getting parachuted in the team for the odd game. Okoli only really played under Cooper and he did ok in those games. The problem we have is that nobody's going to take Coady and Vesty off our hands. Therefore we need to sell other CBs to compensate.
-
I think our current situation plays into Monga's hand. We've been relegated and got no money. He's guaranteed playing time and if he doesnt like it, he can leave for free next season.
-
Ricky's career is a case of what if. If he hadn't got injured in 2020, we'd probably got CL football. He'd have walked into the best teams in the world during that period. Now he's way too good for the championship, but he'll see his contract out and walk away for free next year.
-
Having lived through the Pleat years, this guy was one of the most influential managers we've had. The only reason Little doesn't get the credit he deserves, is because of the way he left.
-
What hope have we when the same people are still here "running" the club.
-
Money well spent
-
If Maddison scores the pen we stay up, but that would've just been a temporary fix. The clubs broken, we would've got relegated anyway.
