Surely all cupboards are stationary?

Whoever signs him needs to get him to the nearest barber and get that awful ‘Coventry Barnet’ sorted once and for all.

This transfer and the state of the club is 100% down to Rudkin, Whelan and Top being blasé about PSR and ignoring/underestimating the repercussions until too late. As a result we’ve had relegation, an overpaid playing squad that couldn’t/can’t be shifted when the club needed due to wildly overpaid wages, a massive increase in costs to the fans, the loss of the entire management team who weren’t aware of the state of PSR and now our best player gone for an undervalued fee and without any replacement because we are so far from achieving the PSR targets. Our squad is significantly weaker than the one that we started The Championship with and we are understandably favourites with the bookies to be relegated. Even worse, we are now just a feeder club for an awful team called Chelsea, in a position where we have to accept the bear minimum from them for our best players, Will Alves will be next.

I’m worried it might be this #baller 😔

That was literally to save the club. We have no financial issues like this anymore. This is just o adhere to PSR figures that were put in place 10 years ago (£105m a year) that haven’t been adjusted since then to account for inflation.

They’ve had our pants down for £30m. I’d say a good £10m under value. He’s our best player, he had 3 years left on his contract. These fcukers paid £100m for Caicedo. They’ve taken advantage of the terrible mismanagement at LCFC and the PSR deadline. KDH is a great lad, one of our own and I certainly wish him well unlike when they took BenChilwell and Fofana. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see him back in a LCFC shirt again in the future.

It only makes sense if the sale of KDH is going to earn more points than having him with us all season and taking a points deduction. Even then I’m not convinced KDH would want the upheaval of leaving his hometown club to join Brighton. Big 6 yeh but Brighton?

Verstergaard isn’t going to get a better deal than the £80k he’ll be on a week for the next 3 years. If it goes badly for him form-wise we’ll have another Danny Ward problem. We haven’t learned a thing.

Yes, the point I was making was the fact that Rudkin agreed to it shows the club have not learned from past mistakes. Give him a new contract by all means but 3 years is steep for a 32 year old.

Yeh I know but that doesn't justify a 32yr old with a sketchy premier league history being given a 3 year contract.

£160 as well 😂

Tbf he should be rocking the entire BKT LCFC range EVERY match. He’d look an absolute vision in patchworked snow wash denim like KDH did at the launch

The first thing Cooper needs to do is stop rocking Paul Smith tops and grab himself some vintage jumpers emblazoned with ‘The Sweater Shop.’ - Syston’s finest (defunct) clothing wear.

You moved into safer ground from your ‘Patson Daka is a quality striker’ days I see!

I would say the fact that 32 year old Vestergaard has been given a 3 year contract would suggest the drastic reset isn’t happening anytime soon.

Could be worse, we could’ve waited a week and recruited the soon to be out of work Gareth Southgate.

We have at least recruited a manager that is at virtually no risk of being poached by Chelsea or any of the big six 🤪🐍

This is my favourite Cooper. Without them there’d be no whiskey to drown our Stevie Cooper appointment sorrows.

3 year contract ffs. When will we ever learn.

Most Leicester fans right now

When I originally heard it was Potter I was like ‘ah well, he’s very Southgate but at least he’s not fkin Cooper’ and then suddenly we are getting Cooper. It’s a very Leicester way of doing a very Leicester thing in this Top era.

Cooper wasn’t good enough for Notts Forest. He was scrabbling around throughout his time in the Premier League, either conceding too many goals and then reacting by becoming ultra defensive and not scoring enough goals.That’s all the information the club should’ve needed. Why will it be any different at Leicester? Definitely feels like a significant backwards step tactically. I’m sure the players will be disappointed going from a Pep style manager to Cooperball. If he brings the paranoia that he helped develop at Forest, where EVERY decision against him became a post match rant and a written letter of complaint, despite him having a team where Yates’ appalling gamesmanship was encouraged then it will quickly get annoying for all of us!

If we go for Cooper then that’s an absolute downgrade from Maresca. He was all over the shop tactically with Notts Forest in The Premier League, either conceding lots of goals or being that defensive that nothing was created at the other end. He also started the paranoid victim mentality that plagues Forest to this day. Every decision against his team was wrong and yet he appeared blind to the cheating of Yates and the like.
