Why Jordan Ayew is the Perfect Assistant Manager for Leicester City A New Era. A New Dynamic. Peter Taylor brings the blueprint. Jordan Ayew brings the spark. Together, they represent the perfect blend of wisdom and modernity — a management duo that unites footballing intelligence, lived experience, and an unshakable work ethic. 🔥 1. Elite Experience, Underrated Intelligence Jordan Ayew is far more than a dependable forward. With over 500 senior appearances across the Premier League, Ligue 1, and international tournaments, he’s played under top coaches, adapted to countless systems, and absorbed the game's nuances at the highest level. He understands squad dynamics, dressing room psychology, and what it takes to survive and thrive in English football — especially in challenging moments. This makes him a natural communicator and bridge between players and staff. 🗣️ 2. Respected by Players — Across Cultures, Languages, and Backgrounds Ayew is multilingual, charismatic, and respected across the footballing world. Younger players will relate to him instantly. Senior players will recognise his professionalism. As assistant, he becomes the connective tissue — someone who commands trust, helps translate tactical instructions into action, and fosters unity across the dressing room. 🧠 3. A Football Mind Ready for the Next Step Ayew is not retiring out of necessity — he’s transitioning by choice. He’s spoken about coaching aspirations and carries the emotional intelligence and tactical reading to back it up. Appointing him now gives Leicester a head start — securing a fresh, modern football thinker before the rest of the league catches on. He’ll grow under Taylor’s mentorship and could become a long-term managerial asset for the club. 🌍 4. A Bridge to the Modern Game Taylor brings structure. Ayew brings modern football intelligence — familiarity with current attacking patterns, pressing systems, player lifestyle demands, and tech-integrated training. He’s lived it, trained under it, and now wants to implement it. Together, they balance: 📊 Structure and instinct 🎯 Discipline and relatability 🏟️ Legacy and innovation 🦊 5. A Symbol of Ambition and Identity Appointing Ayew sends a signal. Leicester isn’t just looking to rebuild — they’re reinventing. This isn’t a vanity hire — it’s a strategic alliance. Jordan Ayew is: Hungry to prove himself Respected by players Committed to the English game Fluent in adversity and leadership Ready to rise 🔵 In Closing: Appointing Peter Taylor is the stabilising masterstroke. Adding Jordan Ayew? That’s the accelerator. This duo could define Leicester’s next chapter — grounded in values, but unafraid to evolve.

🔵 Why Leicester City Should Re-Appoint Peter Taylor as Manager A Return to Principles. A Manager Who Understands Leicester. Peter Taylor is not just a former Leicester manager — he’s a football man who understands the club’s soul, its potential, and the values that once made it a respected institution in English football. His re-appointment would not be a step backward, but a recalibration — a return to footballing fundamentals at a time when the club needs clarity, courage, and connection. 1. 🧠 A Master of Youth Development – The Right Man for a Rebuild Taylor’s track record with developing young players is unmatched in the English game. He was the man who gave David Beckham the England captaincy. He nurtured a generation of young England players and brought calm, measured leadership to the U21 setup. With Leicester increasingly turning to its academy and hungry young professionals, Taylor is perfectly placed to develop, guide and grow a new, hungry squad. He builds teams, not just lineups. 2. 🦊 Unfinished Business – A Man with the Fire to Prove Himself In his first stint, Taylor guided Leicester to the top of the Premier League table — the first time since the 1960s — and his early reign was marked by tactical discipline and a strong team ethic. Yes, the end of that era was difficult, but context matters. He inherited structural challenges and was asked to overhaul a squad at a time of immense transition. Taylor returns now not as a novice, but as a seasoned leader, more measured and wiser for every experience since. 3. 💷 A Financially Astute Leader Leicester’s future may involve careful squad planning, FFP constraints, and the need for value-driven recruitment. Taylor has never been one to chase superstars or overspend. His focus is on building teams, not brands. With the right support, he will maximise existing resources, reduce waste, and prioritise team chemistry over vanity projects. 4. 🤝 A Gentleman of the Game – The Right Cultural Fit Football is changing — and often, for the worse. Ego, excess and instability have plagued many clubs. Taylor brings respect, dignity, and integrity back to the dressing room. Players respond to him because he listens, but also because he demands accountability. His leadership style would be ideal for unifying fractured elements of the squad and backroom team. He brings structure, trust, and professionalism. 5. 🔄 Long-Term Vision Over Short-Term Noise Rather than being seduced by “fashionable” managers with little connection to the club or community, Leicester would be wise to appoint someone with perspective. Taylor isn’t here for headlines — he’s here for foundations. He understands the Championship, understands footballing psychology, and can guide Leicester into a new era of sustainable success. 🔵 In Summary: Re-appointing Peter Taylor isn’t nostalgic — it’s visionary. He knows how to build teams. He believes in youth. He works within means. He understands Leicester. He has the unfinished business to drive him. It’s time for Leicester to stop chasing trends and start writing their story again — with Peter Taylor at the helm.

This is massive for me. An effective and passionate communicator like big Nige or similar and I'd be open to next season. But the grinning and hugs with the opposition inspire a hate in me -

The kit could be the best we ever had, I won't spend one quid on it.

Agree. Equally for his sake more than anything. He needs a revival and is capable of it at 28, a change can help him.

Tough one but ended up going with Skipp

The Best And Worst Goalkeepers We've Had.
dillonpanthers87 replied to Parafox's topic in Leicester City Forum
Kevin Pressman Rab Douglas Ward is by far the worst On the other hand, we usually do pretty well with keepers. Used to love Kevin Poole. -

Vardy hat-trick. We lose 6-3 -
Milestones (I know 9 years is not a milestone but...) like this really act as a marker against personal moments we've been through - where were we then, and now. It's really bittersweet.

https://www.skysports.com/football/video/30998/13356344/wolves-3-0-leicester-ruud-van-nistelrooy-speaks-following-defeat Unsure; I don't feel he would be making this up, for all his faults -
One of the worst, and most damaging players we've ever had.

I don't even know why we've played him? What's the point?

Agree - temporary smokescreen

Not £1 until the ownership changes

How much does he charge? Can he play up front? -
No kits, no merch. These clowns in charge don't deserve it.

Also, they need to be starved out the club. Empty seats, week in week out, no merchandise/shirts, nothing. Anything within safe reason that costs the club money....
