That “rot” in the league games accrued 4 points in his last 5 games. 7 points if you go back 6 games Which the same amount it’s taken RVN 14 games, soon to be 15 games to get -
Of the 198 games played by six promoted teams in the Premier Leaguesince August 2023, only 23 have been won. Taking this season in isolation, the number is nine from 84.

Do you think there is an element of over exposure, up until the late 90s you could only really see the team live adding to the element of excitement as people recall some of the best atmospheres. Then we were spoilt with the O’Neil and the sky sports era, then a huge downturn in form for 10 odd years, then back to the prem after a long time away which again made it exciting. The great escape and winning the league in two seasons and by this time you could now watch the team weekly even if you didn’t attend the matches. Once you have witnessed, league and cup wins and European football that was beyond most Leicester fans wildest dreams it’s hard to maintain that same adrenaline fulled excitement when watching a team go through the motions with so many over paid flops. Even more so when you have witnessed players that used to put their hart and sleeves on the line like, Walsh, Elliot, Tags, Izzet, Lennon, Morgan, Huth, Vardy in his pomp and so many of the current players are not very likeable.

Your two examples are a little extreme, Alli went onto score 18 goals in one season in the prem and was rated over £100m at 21 and Bellingham sold for 100m plus with add ons at 19. I don’t think a 19 year old coming back from a serious injury that kept him out for 255 days and hadn’t played any league football before his loan is quite on the same trajectory.

Here is another one, that I just stumbled on when checking rumoured wages “Odsonne Edouard (Centre-Forward) has 1 year and £4,680,000 Estimated Gross Salary remaining on his contract with Leicester (Premier League), expiring on Jun 30, 2025. Odsonne Edouard, who is 27 years old, will earn an Estimated Base Salary of £4,680,000 for the 2024-2025 Season, or £90,000 gross per week, excluding bonuses” even if palace were paying half that, which is unlikely. It’s probably at least another few million chucked away when money is tight. If Palace were paying his wages they wouldnt have him loaned out doing fck all.

We know that much, that’s why they built them state of the art leisure centre/spa - Training ground.

We sold Castange, Barnes, KDH, to balance the books on the last relegation season. About £80m a majority was pure profit and spent about £40m I can't see us getting anywhere near that figure with players in this squad on the back of horrendous form. Things will be a lot tighter next season because of the reduced PSR amount anyway. Plus we we have, players like Soumare VK Skipp BDR Ayew Bilal Okoli pushing up the weekly wage up compared to the last time we went down. Let’s hope we can get rid of a lot of the high earners.

Why would he have anything bad to say? He was plucked from relative obscurity, used the club as a stepping stone, one year later got a dream job that has probably set him and his family up for life regardless if he gets sacked or not.

If he dropped his wages down to about 30/40k he would be an asset in the champ. If he doesn’t then the money would be better off spent elsewhere

I think people clearly underestimate how hard it is to find a decent striker look at all the money that has been spent on additional strikers and “replacements” over the last 10 years £130m plus and ask yourself why the 38 is still playing. He didn’t look out of place early on with goals and assists, but playing for a team that creates **** all since and barely gets a touch of the ball anywhere near the opponents box as a collective is going to result in looking poor. If we had a competent manager the criticism would be elsewhere.

If you look at shit squads look at Luton’s last season. only relegated on the last week of the season 6 wins including 4-0 Brighton. Our squads quality should not be used to mask this inept turds managerial qualities -

That’s just a easy excuse The team is brimming with prem experience. Mads will go to a better team BIlal will also. Facu will go on to have a good career. Ayew was a regular for palace Skipp was getting games for Spurs. Ndidi has been linked to top European clubs. Kristisen played in Seria A team that finished 5th This team is not as bad as some of the worst teams in prem history. He has lost 12/13 and after the run of fixtures coming up it will probably be one win in 19 -
