what about the players, what will they be thinking?

Fvcksake, hadn't thought about this until now. Not only have we lost a damn good manager, we're now in danger of upsetting some our best players.

The players will be fine. They do need a manager to steady the ship quickly however.

Largely depends on who replaces him. Needs to be someone of considerable stature if they are to placate the players who must be wondering wtf has just happened too.

If it's someone of the Malky MacKay / Brian McDermott mould then we can all forget it.

Vardy has said numerous times in interviews how much he owes to Pearson for the faith he showed in him even during his poor full season. Just from looking at training pictures, celebrations of staying up etc Pearson has a laugh with all the players as if he's their mates. Hope i'm wrong but really think this will have a big effect on the vast majority of our team.

Villa are a bigger club than us, who are perceived as being more likely to survive than we are (now). His relationship with Nigel was the only reason that Vardy wouldn't have had his head turned by them. Same goes for Kasper and everyone he has been linked to. I really don't know how you can be so confident about the situation.

Because the players will think contracts first and foremost. If what you are saying is some players might now leave for BETTER contracts, then I think you could be right. But they won't be following Nigel Pearson unless he goes to a club which can make those offers. And if Vardy and Kasper or anyone else leaves for a sensible sum of money then so be it.

The club is bigger than any of our players and if they don't want to stay, there would be no point in having them here anyway.

Pearson leaving could herald changes. But it might not. That's why we need to get a settled situation back in place quickly.

Will be interesting if any tweet about it. I reckon Huth is thinking "what have I done"

I should imagine the players will be leaving social media well alone!

When are they returning for pre-season training? Can only imagine the mood will be very sombre at Belvoir Drive.

 

Pretty sure Nigel used to have them back for the first week in July, so Monday; which would give 2 weeks until the first friendly. Since Walsh and Shaky are currently in charge I expect it to be the same and all planned out.

Jesus lads, this thread! Im sure they will be fine on their long term contracts. Big sam will come in we will finish 10th and everyone will be happy :)

I should imagine they'll carry on with a smile on their face for the cameras at pre season.

 

But, some of them will be concerned/wondering if they have a role to play when a new manager comes in

I feel especially sorry for Fuchs, Huth and Okazaki. Wouldn't actually begrudge any of them leaving this summer, not that I expect it to happen. They've come here under false pretences.

Maybe they knew he was getting the boot? Who knows.

Come on. Why are they going to leave because a manager they don't even know has left? Pretty sure they'll all still fancy their chances of playing regular premier league football, and that's why they're all here.

A manager who could well have had a big say in them actually signing for us.

 

I don't think they will leave but it reminds me a fair bit of the Tom Kennedy signing - he ended up in obscurity and that may not have been the case if Pearson hadn't been given the boot the first time. Who's to say the new manager doesn't like these?

 

Like I say, highly unlikely, but I'm sure they'll all be very disappointed with this.
