'I Want People To Be Closer' - Khun Top Speaks
funkyrobot replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
I wouldn’t be surprised if he hadn’t even checked the score yet. He might’ve not even known we were playing last night. Too busy doing other stuff - polo, going out for meals, doing the big shop, watching Love Island, arguing about what bin day it is and who’s putting the bin out. -
He thinks winning free kicks is a positive attribute and it genuinely is his main focus in every game, it’s almost an obsession. The thing is, because he doesn’t stretch the game like a traditional number 9, these free kicks are very rarely won in dangerous positions. They stop any momentum and because he’s only successful in winning them 50% of the time, it very often results in a turnover of possession close to our halfway line. So frustrating.

Much preferred right footed centre back Nelson playing at left back to left footed left back Thomas playing at left back. Make sense of that.

Always disappears second half. 🤷🏻♂️ -
Wrexham 1-1 LCFC, post-match thread
funkyrobot replied to ClaphamFox's topic in Leicester City Forum
Terrible in the second half YET AGAIN. WTF is Marti saying (or not saying) at half time? Is it fitness? Tactics? It’s been too often to be just coincidence. -
I’m just confused what bemorecoatsworth means? Is it good or bad? Coatsworth wasn’t a footballer that was easy on the eye footballing wise, but not all of our players were in that era and nor was the division. He did however play with maximum effort, often playing through injury and had some great moments with us.
-
Eh? Is this a dig against Gary Coatsworth? He was a cult figure in his brief time at Leicester and not just for his hair. Played a key role in the play off season 93/94 and played in the final and set up the equaliser. Scored a couple of cracking goals too. Sadly injury ended his career shortly after whilst still at the club.

He got dropped by Cooper - he was on the bench for the Southampton game away and was brought on for Skipp at half time. Tbf he changed the game!

Premier League has charged LCFC with an alleged breach of PSR
funkyrobot replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
As I say, pretty much all information online backs up what I say. We are notoriously high over payers which is why players never leave. Luke Thomas is on 30k plus bonuses. The idea that a prime age Harry Winks is pushing 80k plus is very much within the realms of reality. -

Player wages are 100% relevant to PSR -

Winks signed for us in The Championship when he was under contract at Spurs on 90k. There’s no way he would’ve taken a 30k wage drop and a drop into the Championship. The vast majority of info on the internet backs up what Capology state - that he’s on 80+k and has been throughout his 3 years, however that has been paid. Ricardo and Soumare’s wages are verified at 80k -

Yeh not all fully verified but used by the industry and partner links can be seen on the website. Bouba and Ricardo are verified at 80k and Winks’ wages are reported on multiple platforms as 80k plus in line with Capology. -

Have you looked at the website? Looked at their partners? It’s 100% more accurate than the bloke next to you at the footy theorising what they think Winks was on. He’s the highest paid player in The Championship -

Go and have a look yourself. Their numbers are far more reliable than someone on here theorising. I started checking it after there was a general consensus amongst fans that Luke Thomas had signed a new contract because the club had reduced his wage only to see from capology that his wage had doubled. -

Only certain players. Winks obviously negotiated well. He dropped down a division from Spurs because it wouldn’t impact on him financially and obvs has assurances that it wouldn’t change during the 3 years. -

Capology.com is the go to website for wages. It’s still an approximate but a good one. Coady was on £75k. Interesting to note that Faes contract had a bigger relegation clause and that he’s on £25k this season. (Edit actually probably means he’s having half his wages paid by us…👀) Explains why he’s been easier to loan out whereas we know Winks on 90k, Bouba on 80k and Daka on 75k aren’t likely to go anywhere. -

Winks has been on approx 90k a week since he joined us in The Championship in 23/24 season. That’s what he’s being paid now too. -
Patson’s pace is exaggerated
-
Wow, that is a very brave admission 😬. Remarkable take to think VK and Luke Thomas are anything other than two of the weakest players in a very average team. We are league 1 to 2 at left back.
-
What is the point of putting Patson Daka in any team. Absolute waste of a shirt.
-
If we don’t sign a left back in the January window someone needs to call the police.

Wout Faes loaned to Monaco - Official
funkyrobot replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
Was my info about Stade Reims not winning ligue 1 since 1962 as correct as me saying they are in ligue 2 now? -

funkyrobot replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
My comment would actually help your nephew Wout. He doesn’t want to be at Leicester so if he got glowing positive comments from LCFC fans that would help him get the move made permanent. Wout was previously at Stade Reims. Last time I looked they are a ligue 2 club. Stadium capacity 21k. Not won Ligue 1 since 1962. Not sure that fits your description of being ‘much better than Leicester’ to be honest. -
Wout Faes loaned to Monaco - Official
funkyrobot replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
As soon as the deal was just an option to sign him permanently we should’ve bombarded Monaco’s social media with glowing tributes to Faes to encourage them to see the positives and give us £10m - maybe even pay it early. Instead their social media has been hit with bitter LCFC fans ‘good riddance’ messages. We should’ve waited until they signed him permanently before sending shithouse Faes messages! -
Inevitable but I’d still take it over him actually joining us. 🤷🏻♂️
