Trav Le Bleu Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 I voted yes, because if he keeps us up, then it will be because he has sorted things out. Also you neglected to mention whether we win the CL or not.

We've been utter garbage all season as you say but weirdly still above 5 other clubs and have a better GD than most sides around us.. It's this blind pessimism I find amazing on this forum. I am this season, neither a pessimist nor optimist..more than observationalist. Those sides around us , may not be anywhere near brilliant, but they have put in reasonable performances Which at times have shown them to Play to a plan, some style in their play, far better movement than what we have produced this season.Plus poor performers where squad allows, get benched. With or without bias, one sees that these teams, have if not the whole team,4-7 honest and good performers. Who play with intensity and a bit more character... Eg: even C.Palace, Hull in their defeats may show lack of top quality, but they compete and we see they can hold the ball, and move it around with at least lower PL quality and endeavour. We until now have not shown a spark of quality..We have been poor. Not once, last season nor the first 1/3 of this season have I been negative, no matter how some (Not all) on this forum have been fickle, even contradictive. I am not here to win Brownie points either. I still hope and believe we can turn it around, but be sure neither 21pts or 33 points will save us. Like Swansea on Saturday the others will also have their days (plural), because they have even in defeat shown purpose. Now its up to OUR team to show some purpose. For one I accepted and admitted, the 2016 squad might have ran out of legs, and that unique mentality of fighting for that last inch. Claudio now has to fight to save, then we can think of rebuilding. If need be buy 3-9 month wonders, a short Time/term magnificent five or seven in their twilight careers, Who know they have 1 last bite and one lasts season Of top flight football. I dont want us to go down and be a Newcastle, we need to fight to stay up, then our present newbies do turn out to be the base we can rebuild on. Amartey, Musa, Mendy, Ndidi, Gray become the future stars. If we see no CBs coming in I fear the worse...

Would not of scored if we were still playing now and so vulnerable it was unreal. Slightly bemused why we have changed it so much, picked up good results against West Ham and Everton, solid enough draw at borough, I'm not being funny surely a tonking against Chelsea is not reason to change a system that was worked prior to that, they're going to win the league. I get the irony of me claiming the Diamond should get in the bin after one game and saying this but we need to accept certain systems and certain players might not always get the desired result but we need to find one that can get enough of them and stick with it even if does mean Liverpool and Man U have an easy day against us as it's not those games that matter anymore. Eh? What about the 442's and the 4 nils? Southampton was awful but we've been equally as bad many times this season, playing 'our way' You're clutching at straws.

Last season, Ranieri made their careers and boosted their value up considerably. If they don't play for him anymore it's the players that can **** off. That should be enough motivation. Superb post
Ted Maul Posted 24 January 2017 Posted 24 January 2017 I voted, but only so I could see the results. Depends on how we stay up (if we do)
Leicesterpool Posted 24 January 2017 Posted 24 January 2017 Depends how we finish, if we finish in the current position or lower then we need to move on. For me he's took the club as far as could and its impossible for him to top last season. If we do finish higher and improve then yeah I'm willing to give him another go, but don't be so generous in the transfer window, stick to a normal budget. Perhaps look to off load a few in the summer, Morgan?, Huth?, controversial see what price we can get for Mahrez?

If we struggle like this for the rest of the season and just stay up by the skin of our teeth, then absolutely we should look for a fresh start and new manager. If however, he makes some decent signings in this window and we see a big change in performance and results, then of course he should stay. I actually think we will end up falling somewhere in between that, with only 1 decent signing in this window plus some good performances, mixed in with some bad and staying up with gap of 5-6 points. That will then be a really tough choice, whether we make a change or not. Even then, I would be tempted to give him the first 10 games of the new season. The danger of that of course, is giving him another transfer window, so depending on what we do in this one, will have impact on my thoughts on giving him another summer and 10 games, if we do finish 16th/17th this season. I don't see any decent player willing to come to such a sorry team with a dressing room apparently about to explode. We only have one week left and I didn't hear anything confirmed other than some rumors about signing Ramirez from Soton (very doubtful an don't see why unless you drop Vards once and for all) and Ulloa presenting his transfer requer (more likely). I personally don't mind/know anymore. Southampton away seems to have been a turning point. Absolutely everything went wrong. The loss, the way of losing and the players as well as the manager's faces told volumes. So either they get a grip the next game, ALL of them. inclusive the coach or it's a free fall until April.

We are missing a great opportunity to strengthen certain positions. Summer may be too late. No manager in the PL has the time to take care of the transfer business. It is the job of Macia and Rudkin to bring in new players. That's what they are paid for. Don't blame the gardener, if your lunch is overcooked.

He played a formation out of nowhere that didn't suit our players and it looked like we hadn't prepared properly to play it. In fact he's said about as much himself. He didnt go out and play crap.The players failed because they were not performing on a Premier league Level. No group of players took responsibilty on the pitch. Formation excuses, is just a poor players excuse at PL level.. Gerrard was a typical example of turning on his Managers. Beckenbauer, once said top quality league players, and Internationals, should see the game and where they should react, and what levels they should perform at. Being off form is normal, but not over months. New players, need time, could be a season if 3-4 old regulars are not pulling their weight. These Top players , get payed enough to re find form, and put in consistent performances, no excuses. I agree... !!!!
Moksky Posted 24 January 2017 Posted 24 January 2017 I can look at a managers future that far ahead of a club like ours. Unless they repeatdely successful like Ferguson was.Lets see where we are at the end of the season. No vote. If you vote no , then in my eyes you really want him gone now.

We ain't lost 4-0 all season unless I'm missing something, certainly not more than once. Pretty sure we didn't play 442 in the games I'm referring too. Odd post all round really.

My bad. 4-1 each time v Man Utd and Liverpool 442 each time. Annihilated. Both could have been easily 6/7

The System used in the games I'm referring to was not 442

I voted no and I never been a fan of sacking managers mid season. I think if a manager is given a full season (in the outgoing), it gives them a full opportunity to iron issues out. For any manager coming in, they don't have time to put their own stamp on things. Alongside that the only Ranieri pre season was a disaster.
ARCHER Posted 25 January 2017 Posted 25 January 2017 Not another poll, we've signed two and neither get a game!
simFox Posted 25 January 2017 Posted 25 January 2017 We should go back to 442. We were overrun in midfield at the start of the season and had little options. Mendy is back, Amartey/Gray are settling in and Ndidi looks promising, we have plenty of good options now and some experience making it work. Slimani needs service and could be lethal if we can build a strong creative midfield with options. Back 4 need to hand their keys back though.
