Right-ho. Wish I could be a loyal servant like you. Seen the good times, seen the bad. It hasn't clouded my judgement on when a man is out of his depth and doing an appalling job. You'd think out of respect for his dad, who, you're right is spinning in his grave, he'd ask for help rather than being a total ostrich about the whole situation and blanking the supporters.

And thats how it should be now. Get the u18s or PL2 whatever its called used to playing in front of bigger crowds, get kids who cant afford or cant get STs in for a fiver and keep them connected to the club.

Should. He was a proven performer at that level. The other options are inconsistent - McAteer, Old - Ayew, BDR or untried/unproven Monga /Evans. We're not sure what condition Abdul will be in either so Id keep him for at least next season.

He hasnt shipped his family to Leicester so that won't matter

Why not just remove clubs that are in Europe and replace them with 6 from the Conference? Moaning shits. Top clubs were given bigger squads, extra subs and bench places, replays removed, the league cup final brought forward to February and no penalties for playing weakened teams yet STILL get concessions. **** em.

Statement FC making 2 statements? We've waited 2 weeks just for one!

Not really, dont think anyone's bracketed him in that way but Alves aside we've had very little coming through the academy since Barnes. The potential of being another Heskey or Joachim is exciting enough.

This is the sort of player we used to laugh at other clubs for buying. Genuinely, whole-heartedly, just no.

The lack of self-awareness is staggering.

I'll stick a fiver at Ladbrokes right now he never makes 50 appearances for them. There will always be £40m signings ahead of him.

Stay at Leicester and be the next Joachim, Heskey, Barnes, Chilwell etc. Play regularly and get a big money move as you hit your peak..... .......OR......... ........be the next Trey Nyoni and play twice a season in the league cup.

Thats not 100% true though. Like Abdul he was benched and out of favour, barely played for 2 months and when he finally gets some minutes he breaks down. Poor man management.

His best season for fitness was under Maresca. No surprise this was in a season where he wasnt expected to bomb up and down a wing for 90 mins and just defend & knit things together. I'd take a restricted Ricky over a fully fit Justin.

Perhaps a memorial video played before every home game where we clap wildly remembering when our club wasnt a nightmare of new daily sshhiittshows?

I've hoped that for the past two summers. Daka is the Danny Ward of strikers and Soumare is the Danny Ward of midfielders. People don't buy duds on massive wages and duds on massive wages don't take pay cuts.

Extend Jakub, Ricky and Alves. Sell the rest in July.

Just like Winks he never made it past the M25 most days.

Keegan had spent 40 mins creaming himself over their defence and just piped down for the rest of the game after that.

Not even sure we can say he's grown up. He had those missed training sessions under Rodgers along with Chilwell and being left out the team for 3 months afterwards would normally wobble your head but there were more rumours of him having other disciplinary problems after that. Just when you think he's getting married, having kids and settling down he's caught DUI and gets a driving ban. He'll do his bit in the dead men division for us but we can't be renewing his contract again. He doesn't have the positional awareness or the quality to go any higher and with so many centre mids and RBs already here he's worth whatever we get for him.

Quite literally. 🎵 Those were the days my friend......

Not sure about irrational but I think that the dog thing has been overdone, it wasn't even this season. It's one of those stories that gets leaked when there's disharmony in the club and unhappy players. Would never have come out in the Championship season when he was getting called Vester-goat and we're 12 pts clear in the league. No-one was calling out his attitude back then either. As for the rest, he's symbolic of how and why this club has spiralled in just 5 years. A 3yr deal for a player of his limited pace and value when we have have half a dozen other CBs here was ridiculous. When you're as skint as we are you dont waste your wage bill on ageing CBs. You offer that to the likes of Nelson who will be the future of the club.

He'll end up at Leeds or Fulham, somewhere like that. He won't want to hang around in the stiffs another year, it's a short career.

Anyone expecting an imminent announcement will be disappointed. Remember after the last relegation it took 2 weeks to get rid of Dean Smith. It was 16th June by the time they announced his departure. They've learnt nothing. They plan nothing. They're not even self aware enough to realise how utterly disorganised this sh--show all looks.

Yeah I want to apologise for my part in this too. Rarely been this wrong about a player since I thought Alan Maybury could "do a job" for us.

Not just the errors, wingers went round him like he was a traffic cone. Positioning, pace, marking, all weak. There has to be a stat about the number of goals that came down our right side, over ⅔ surely? Gets away with so much because he scores 1 thunderbastard per season.
