  1. cant see Page going in same window unless this souttar for dobson, james and keillor dunn rumour has any weight to it.
  2. if they sign and loan him back that would be preferable
  3. He looked resigned to his body letting him down. wouldnt count on him much this season. so we are mid table at best even though our kids are good quality.
  4. positives: no skipp, faes, okoli, choudhury, mavididi Stolarzcyk in McFarlane a very good left back JJ, Braybrooke and Page looked very very good on the ball. Howell and Alves showed touches of real class Bristric getting up to speed. Cons: Look way short of goals to get top 6. Look susceptible to anything direct as usual Watson busy but powderpuff Burns similar. Need to find another attacking player from somewhere or hope Chaplins groin/hammy hasnt gone and page, alves, bristric, howell get there quickly.
  5. Good that Stola is in and Page Braybrooke starting as the axis.
  6. Before going off the deepend. Aluko took a knock and theres 3 games this week. Otherwise i think he would be in. Bristric has come straight in off the plane and played 2 games, and probably will start the other two games this week. Howell and Alves. Id be very surprised if they dont play 2 of the 3 games this week and 30mins off the bench today.
  7. thing was, i understood dennis wise, just a little aggressive ratbag, and decent footballer. Whereas faes is a gen z version of unaccountable willy puller - not even encumbered with a temper to blame for his indiscretions just an immense sense of entitlement.
  8. I can't say the name aloud. It's like MacBeth for actors. I refer to him only as 'the Southampton player'.
  9. Until Faes, i don't think i had ever really truly hated a Leicester player. It felt like such a weird concept, to have a visceral, negative reaction to a player within a team you support. Don't get me wrong. I didn't think Gary Coatsworth or Junior Lewis were good enough. I didn't like that French chaps Panenka penalty, and i thought Lee Marshall was a bit shit. I was very unconvinced by Mark Blake and thought Bobby Davison rocked the Fox Leisure kit like they'd put an accountant out on the pitch. But Faes really broke the watershed. He's highlighted a real trend among certain teams that has emerged post the advent of Pep ball. The ability to appear immenseley arrogant and self assured in and around the game, whilst delivering heinous **** ups and performances that cost goals, games and relegations without the approach or urgency appearing to change. Faes, Souttar, Okoli, Skipp, Ayew, Thomas, Vestergaard and others all have/had this in spades. No noticeable change in approach or style at any point despite all evidence pointing to the fact that they need to change. This is why me, and other Leicester fans i think, have slowly just fallen out of love with the players and the club. The sheer inability to recognise failure and to adopt a new style and approach is just not something we've come across at scale before and its permeated every part of the club. The fact we are STILL splitting our CB's and passing across our 6 yard box in League One. Still signing players who think, but can't prove, that they are above a league means that Faes is the poster boy of the whole shitshow. Keep giving the ball away directly to the striker for goals? Carry on Keep getting caught out of position in transition? Carry On Have no capacity or tactics to go long or be more direct? Carry on. For footballers like Faes on massive contracts, i think its this consequence free-ness that alienates them eventually. Anyway - **** him of to Turkey. He can even donate his barnet to all the visiting scousers getting a hair transplant.
  10. This Kanga fella looks like he plays left CB. Also looks like he likes to run full pelt out of defence with the ball. So him and Aluko at centre back could get interesting. How did McFarlane look on his full debut? based on highlights looked like a big upgrade going forwards. In that he got forwards.
  11. That being our best team, it's pretty startling that the average age is about 21. If you take Stolarcyk and Chapllin out, average age is 19.8. I think we need 3 players in. - An experienced League One centre half of 25+ who isn't a Lascelles type of experience ie slow and shit and wants a payday. - Someone like 5 years ago's Paull Mullin as an option up front. - Some height/ground coverage in mdfield. Like a League one Ndidi Those are the three areas we are short given that Coulbialy, Skipp, Choudhury, Souttar, Okoli, Faes, Mavididi just can't play for the club again. They are a poioned group who all need to be gone before we can really get going with a clean slate.
  12. Stolarczyk Joseph Aluko Kangasniemi McFarlane Braybrooke Howell Chaplin Page Watson Bristric Subs; McCarthy Alves, Thomas, Cullen, Burns, Gray, BDCR
  13. have to be very compact with that midfield, with wingers hugging touchlines and fullbacks switched on.
  14. Just get him gone for £4-5m +. He's playing like a c*nt and has been responsible for us starting games under pressure so far this season.
  15. I would rather us, genuinely, finish 14th this year with Stolarzcyk, Joseph, Aluko, Page, Braybrooke, Alves, Carr, Gray etc at the heart of the squad with people like Burns, Chaplin and 1 or 2 additional experienced heads in to help them mature than see Choudhury, Thomas, Skipp, Mavididi, Souttar, Okoli, BDCR etc in a leicester shirt all season. Page and Braybrooke have more ability in their left toe than Choudhury, Thomas same with Joseph and Aluko. They were massive beneficiary of the period of time they emerged in or would be in League Two or National League by now.

  17. we will get battered here. wont even bother posting team as it doesnt matter.
  18. At every turn ive said we are at best a league one team with this squad and manager. it is 100% true. we are in a relegation battle.
  19. Martin is going for back to back humiliating sackings. and he has come to the right place to achieve his dream.
  20. thats a bit rich...
  21. v Burton surely we don't need Skipp AND braybrooke Just play Braybrooke Burns Howell Alves Watson Bristric get the full backs supporting when we are on the ball. if we are struggling to get a foothold then you've got deeper midfielders in the hutch.
  22. Burns - broke down the right, showed composure and played BDCR in who ****ed up the one on one. Burns - nodded the ball to BDCR from Alves cross, having come in from his wing in an intelligent fashion. BDCR ****ed the 6 yard tap in. apart from lay on two guilt edged chances from quality play, as a winger, Burns did nothing I agree.
  23. Will hopefully be different this week. Get it into the Admiral and get Burns, Watson, Alves, Howell, Page, Chaplin (delete as approproiate) running around him. We can play 50% tippy tappy shite, but if we launch it into the channels well 8 or 9 times a half then the high press will soon get to fook. I believe old school managers call it 'playing football' ie if they press you, go more direct into the space, if they sit off you get the ball wide quickly and get people in and around the box. A simple game made complicated by fools.
  24. That damn elusive sha-a-dow. name that 80's/ 90's prime time comedy.
