How do we stop the rot?

[foxes21]

Players not good enough:

 

Hamer, Hernandez, Wasilewski, King, Amartey,Gray, Schlupp, Kaputska, Ulloa, Musa and possibly Kaputska/Chilwell as Claudio clearly doesn't rate them.

Gray? Ulloa? Chilwell? Come off it. 

 

We haven't seen Herndandez at centre back other than Hull away, also, so that's a little unfair too.

Maybe I was being harsh.

But I think tonight answers why Ranieri doesn't rotate much. Because he see's that pile or dross day in day out in training.

 

Alot in that list are simply not good enough, or not ready (Chilwell, Kaputska).

I just dunno. I can see where you're coming from.

Gray is good 

Ulloh bit underrated

Musa - not sure, needs time

Chilwell - not sure, needs time

 

The rest can GO

First thing we HAVE to do, is ditch the 4-4-2.

 

It is failing so badly and simply cannot continue. Tonight was the perfect chance to experiment with a different formation but we didn't.

 

A 4-3-3 with a holding midfielder to protect the back 4 or a 3-5-2, with Albrighton and Fuchs as wingbacks. 

 

We have to make it until the January window, until we can address the player side of things. Even the fringe players are woeful at the moment.

There is something seriously wrong with these player's mentality. There just seems to be a general lack of interest. How the hell do you turn that around?

Put Benny in central defence to cheer everyone up.

[southfox66]

for calling out loud !!! does anyone here actually support Leicester City? or we been taken over by Manchester united fans 

[marbles]

How about benching the players who cant seem to be bothered to give an honest effort ?

The outcomes are terrible anyways - so why not sit them for a few games and see if they get the message 

 

and if you're wondering.....I'm referring mainly to Vardy and Mahrez 

 

[Struwwelpeter60]

Yes, our performance tonight was abysmal. But  those, who now are clamoring (again)

for Ranieri's head, are to a large part the same, who were castigating him for not playing the

guys, who tonight demonstrated, that they are not fit to play in the first-team.

And just a reminder: Our first-team beat the same Porto side 1:0 just a few weeks

ago. What does that tell us?

It's really bizarre.Now, the know-alls are blaming Ranieri, for doing, what they wanted him to do.

He gave the players on the bench the chance to prove themselves on the big stage.

They failed. Tonight's game made clear, why Ranieri is playing, if possible, the same 

line-up as last season. Tonight's game made clear, why he wanted to keep Vardy, Mahrez,

Drinkwater and Kante at all costs.

Yes, we didn't sign in summer the players, we really needed.

The big question is: WHY ?

[kingfox]

Lee getting all excited again because we're struggling and the transfer market opens next month.

[Bazly]

How about Eddie Howe and move CR upstairs as director of past glories?

[Tuna]

 

Putting Richard III back in the car park and digging him up again?

[NeilLCFC]

Pearson or Shakespeare for me

[Tuna]

Apparantly it does exactly what it says on the tin.

 

[HighPeakFox]

I don't know the answer. However I'm fairly sure that Pearson isn't it. 

[foxy boxing]

by working hard and demonstrating a willingness to succeed and by evoking the memories of the great escape.by being focused on the task in hand and remembering that in fact we can be a good team. by playing to the team and players strengths and staying united in the struggle. by Claudio showing the faith and not being stuck in his mindset

[red-white]

Heard someone say today that the FA should look into Leicester winning the league and something was just not right, that's just pathetic. 

 

Still reckon you lot will end up top 8. 

[DelBoy73]

First of all, we should have brought-in a quality young CB to help the aging 32-year olds at the back.

The pre-season games showed how terrible they were without Kante's cover.

 

And then, bar Drinkwater,  you have our whole midfield options that are not PL material, period.

Instead of signing Slimani we should have used the money to buy quality in CM or MD roles in order to feed the players up-front.

 

We could still address these two essential fvcks-up during January's transfer window, but honestly,

Claudio definitely lost momentum and spoiled any attractivity we had pre-season. 

Now that we have been exposed as the shower of shite that we have become, who in his right mind would come here and fancy a relegation battle ?

Hate to say it, but i'd take him right now. 

I love Ranieri but he can't even get them to try let alone do anything, he's completely lost the dressing room. completely.

 

I'd take Khazri and Kone too whilst we are at it. 

 

 

Fat Sam chose Shakey as England coach. 

 

Shakey took a great deal of the plaudits last season, concerning other than what we know has changed.

Claudio will always refer to himself as a coach and the selection and buying of players is down to others. (odd I know)

 

Jon Rudkin comes across as sycophantic and somehow has the ear of all that are important. From his time as Academy Director he's not universally liked or respected at the club and does have a worrying amount of fingers in pies/ clout

Would an open letter help?
