Here comes the Carranza bashing

Have to make sure he doesn't kidnap the Princess mind.

Is Kasper the best keeper we've had since 1992? I always felt he was a competent rather than exceptional goalkeeper but his value was magnified by his character. I'm a bit too young to fully remember the likes of Keller or Flowers but from what I can remember they were very good goalkeepers and would wonder if anyone had an opinion on whether they might have a shout? I can remember football most from 96 onwards. So those three would be the shout for keeper. Ricardo is clearly ahead for RB, before he got injured he looked an elite wingback to me, I can't think of a deficiency in his game. As others have said we've had top drawer centrebacks over the years but I can't see past Morgan and Huth who routinely shut out the finest attackers the game has ever seen. I think Huth has a shout as being the most impactful signing a PL club has ever made - turned a relegation-destined defence into one that stayed up comfortably then won the league. LB I agree is between Guppy and Fuchs in my life time, I think just because it's uncertain whether Guppy would have the same impact in the current game given the pace it is played at, I'm going with Fuchs. Centre-mids - I'm going Kante (by miles) and Tielemans. Lennon and Drinkwater are unlucky here and shoutout to Cambiasso. I don't remember Garry Parker very well but know he was a big player for us too. Mahrez on the right, obviously. Uncontested. The left wing is possibly our most underwhelming position. It's probably a choice between Albrighton and Barnes, or changing the formation to the 3 at the back we were better known for in the last 90s/early 2000s. I think I'd go Albrighton honestly, I don't think you win that title or get to the QF of the Champions League without him. At 10 - Izzet. A top Premier League playmaker for years in a weaker side than the likes of Maddison played in. One of the most underrated players the PL has seen. And obviously it's Vardy up top. Heskey is your sub. Kasper Ricardo Morgan Huth Fuchs Kante Tielemans Mahrez Izzet Albrighton Vardy Subs: Flowers, Elliott, Lennon, Guppy, Heskey plus however many of the rest of the above you allow depending on era.

9/10. Shifted lots of expensive shite. Haven't broken the bank. In terms of our current objectives - to be competitive whilst sorting the finances - we've done really well.

I think we've had a really good window.

And this dude apparently.

OH HIS NAME IS LEONARDO

Sounds decent honestly, at least one more signing and I think we've had a good window.

If you're playing two holding midfielders your FBs need to be good going forward.

I won't be popular for saying this but the long-term goal from our perspective here is to maximise the transfer fee when he goes. We can't keep ****ing around with the finances. Get him on the right contract, avoid a release clause and play him the exact right amount to optimise his development. Ideally get back to the Premier League with 2-3 years still left on his contract. And aim to sell for a fee higher than that which Southampton received for Dibling.

Feels like the right manager for the moment. I imagine that for a change the club was fully honest with him that he wasn’t going to get many signings and indeed several players would need to leave. We look structured and organised and that’s the hardest I’ve seen a Leicester side work for a long time. If we’re going to shithouse wins in our current circumstances he could enter the pantheon of our most revered managers.

So that’s the first time I’ve watched us this season. Certainly no lack of effort. Did feel like there was a lack of confidence. But if they’re going to keep scrapping out wins whilst we gut the wage bill and blood the academy grads then the only way is up.

That’s ****ing baller from Monga

Something really reassuring about seeing Andy King in the technical area.

Bruh

If you care where a footballer lives you're a weirdo.

He’s probably not wrong.

Massively reducing the wage bill, blooding the academy grads and scraping shit 1-0 wins would be a successful season for us.

How the **** is Alan Sheehan the Swansea manager, that’s so ****ing random.

It is so ****ing obvious what the club needs. Sell pretty much the entire first team squad. They're shit and on massive wages. In their place, fast-track the promising young players and supplement them with a handful of proper Championship pros and some further young talent, on lower wages who want to actually be here. Find a manager who can build a squad based not just on pedigree or talent but also character and desire. Clear the debts, we can't keep fiddling the numbers whilst the authorities scrutinise us. Properly sort out the finances, I don't think they're too far gone as to be irretrievable but they will be if we carry on. This would properly reset the club. Then Aiyawatt needs to sell up. His primary company is on it's arse and he needs to go sort it out and he hasn't got a clue what to do with the football club. He sells up and the club thanks the current higher ups, Rudkin Whelan et al and shows them the door. If they've gutted the wage bill and left a club with a decent stadium, state of the art training facilities, a modest but tidy squad and minimal debt, they will get a solid buyer.

I struggle to see a promotion challenge with any of the current setup.

Pretty clear the club is in dire straits. Sell everything, play the kids, reset the whole club.

The GOAT.

I think he just felt his time with us was over.

Think it's got **** all to do with Brendan, more likely Kasper surely.
