He's_Magic

Problem is, the FT 11 is just as bad as Ruud's rinse and repeat 11. People asking for Vestergaard, Thomas and Daka to start, when 18 months ago they weren't good enough for the Championship... Terrible state the club is in.

I'm going with a 10:45pm announcement that we've made the Odsonne Eduard loan deal permanent, alongside an RVN comment, saying "Really happy that he's signed permanently, he is a really important personality in the dressing room"

Come on now, we know the score. If Leicester buy him KP don't make any money, if West Ham buy him, they do. We know where the priorities lie.

Yes, get relegated by more than 10 points. Show the Premier League that there points deductions are irrelevant and has no impact on the result of the season. Ingenious.

I agree - both are special talents, could be huge for us over the next season or 2. Let's hope the new manager utilities them properly.

You heard it here first... Welcome the new Tete.

Time for Hamza.

Pep ball only works when you have access to the best players in the world. Accept it football world.

The fact I've seen multiple posts requesting Praet really shows how bad this has got.

The issue with Enzoball has never been so evident. The slow approach means we always have to find a way through 11 players to get close to goal.

We don't get transfer requests, we pay too well.

Are we going to be getting points deductions every year now until our rolling 3 year average loss falls below the limit?

KDH, Ricardo, VESTERGAARD, Daka.

I didn't want to get involved, however I'm ITK when it comes to aircraft seating... It's a privacy divider only. Looks like Turkish Airlines Business class (which is more akin to premium economy on long haul carriers, hence the limited actual privacy it provides). Glad I could add some value to the thread.

And for this reason, it'll be the first proper test to see what mentality Enzo is instilling. If we go in thinking we're Premier League then games like these are banana skins.

He's going to be the perfect backup to Wilf.

But they also won't be dominating possession in the prem. They will have to play differently in the prem to how they played last season, Kompany alluded to this on the Overlap podcast. If Pep wants him to have a genuine experience to what it is like playing for Man City, albeit at a lower level, then maybe we are an option despite prem interest.

Tactics - play for 0-0 at 60 mins - bring on Mads and Barnes to nick a winner. Lose 2-0.

Seems pretty conclusive that Kel is still injured then. Barely moving.

On the plus side... Eddie Howe wouldn't have prepared his team to face that. Not that it will make any different mind.

We need a change, someone who will come and not be influenced by the past or want to play a particular system that doesn't suit our players. Sadly, we no longer have the players to play the tactics that have brought us success in the past, despite that seemingly being S&S's plan A. It may be ugly, but if it keeps us up, anything will do. Big Sam, Marsch, whoever, but I think they need to have no history or connection with the club and be given free reign to just keep us up.

The hatred for Forest outweighs anyone's hatred for Rodgers. Last thing the team need in a game like this is a toxic atmosphere, especially if we concede early. Their confidence is non-existent as it is. Save the boo's and the 'Rodgers out' for after the match, win or lose.

Vardy is playing like he was when Puel was in charge, if we aren't getting the ball forward with any pace then Vardy is ineffective. He can still score goals, his football intelligence and movement are still there, if the ball is moved forward quickly. I don't think any striker on the planet would score many goals in this Leicester team right now.

Well if we only concede from half the corners we give away that's better than last season.
