  1. Some idiot who writes for The Independent called Jack Pitt Brooke. He was on the Sunday Supplement on Sky.
  2. How that tw@t could say that with a straight face. We won the league by 10 pts because Spurs were in the Europa League. Of all the stupid shit being said about us recently that has to be the worse.
  3. The biggest problem I see with Musa is he doesn't use his pace. Against Millwall, their CB out paced him to a ball. I can't comment too much about yesterday as I only saw extended highlights, but Gray is not slow either, so surely he would've made more sense as a sub.
  4. Heard it all now, Ranieri got sacked for not using PEDs.
  5. He may have played as a winger in Russia but we recruited him as a striker, hence why we wanted him in Jan when we were short of strikers. It was Ranieri who decided to play him at left wing, because he wanted to play Vardy & Musa, which just doesn't work. Neither does playing them upfront together, its either or. Now his confidence is shot, it doesn't matter where you play him, he looks useless. He's a prime candidate to see a sports psychologist. Vardy looked ordinary playing on the wing but has shown he's a good player, hopefully Musa can produce something similar. On your other point, Walsh is held in high regard because he has literally put all our title winning squad together. I wouldn't regard Slim (involved in more Leicester goals then any other player, even though he's played a fraction of the season) and Amartey bad signings. I'm not sure Inler was a Walsh signing because Walsh wanted Kante in midfield at all costs and pleaded for him. Is it coincidence our two worst Italian signings, Inler & Benny came a few weeks after Claudio? Who knows. Also Walsh wanted Gueye, not Mendy. Unfortunately Claudio didn't listen, Walsh left and signed him for Everton instead. He's made more tackles then any other player in the top 5 European leagues. Despite what the media would like you to believe, Claudio was a piece of a 4-5 year puzzle, not more or lesser important then any of the other pieces.
  6. Merson's such a cvnt, "the players must like him because they're trying" and then ends it by "if they get a new manager, and the players don't like him, they'd have to get rid of him in a couple of months." These lot aren't going to let go of the meme that the players got rid of Claudio. Its a complete witch hunt.
  7. I think Walsh scouted him as an understudy to Vardy, to play through the middle and use his pace to get behind the defence. Unfortunately Claudio has used him primarily as a left winger, an understudy to Albrighton. That said his confidence is shot now and can't see a role for him this season. Maybe next if he's still here.
  8. BT are the worse. Caught a few minutes of them talking about our win. All they could say was how the players & owners were a disgrace. Then one of them started on us the fans and how we were singing Shakey's name, and how we've forgotten about Ranieri. There was one journo sticking up for us on Soccer Supplement.
  9. Probably made more mistakes today then all the time he's been with us. Made a mistake for their goal and also had a torrid time against Clucas. Still a decent performance. He's part of a winning team full of confidence now, which will make him raise his own standards. He can be as good as Viera or Toure in their pomp.
  10. If Shakey stays in charge I think he'll have a place in the squad, because he knows how good Matty can be.
  11. Its surprising how far he's fallen. Looked world class against Barcelona and now he couldn't even beat the Millwall centre back for pace. Looks like his confidence is shot. Take him out the limelight and see how he goes, if he doesn't improve he needs to be off loaded whatever the fee.
  12. Sounds about right. I always wondered why the club didn't pay Slimani's release clause of 25M & then a few weeks later,when it had expired, went in and paid 30M. There is/was a lot going wrong behind the scenes which Top alluded to in his statement: "What you have seen is only some sides of the club which we can show to the public." "We have done our best as a management. We do not have only one problem to solve, but there are millions thing to do to make our club survive." I personally think Claudio, having been sacked by Greece, was short of confidence and that's why he was open to the ideas of Walsh (brought Kante),Shakey & others. The title win emboldened him, it was either his way or the highway, Psychologist was sacked, Walsh walked & Shakey and him rarely ever talked. Claudio walked into a stable united club and has left it shattered and in complete shambles. Sadly you won't here any of this truth from the media.
  13. That's CR's problem. Kapi is slower but technically better then Musa, but Musa always gets picked.
  14. Completely out of his depth. Championship player at best. Wouldn't be annoyed if he left on a free transfer. I gave him the benefit of the doubt earlier, but the last few games have been indefensible.
  15. That's a blast from the past. Absolutely loved those fighting fantasy books as a kid.
  16. Wood 1 Nugent 0
  17. Matt piper would've had a decent premier league career but for injuries.
  18. For all his pace you rarely see him beating defenders. I thought we were getting a Jefferson Montero type player but we've ended up with another schlupp.
  19. WK at nearly 41, is going to get KO by AJ (I don't know what averted means). Especially if he fights like he did against Fury.
  20. And AJ wins. Very disappointed with Molina.
  21. Compared to the previous fight this is definitely going to be snore fest. Molina looks like a rabbit in the headlights.
  22. It was abit comedic in the end with both slipping and sliding everywhere. I gave to White by one. Guaranteed rematch at some point.
  23. I think they both are. Don't blame them, they're throwing some leather at each other
  24. Great heavyweight match up between white and chisora. They re really going after each other.
