squidsworth Posted 5 February 2017 Posted 5 February 2017 Err, really? He said the right things (as he had to do) but his body language and wry smiles tell a different story. He constantly turned away from the camera as he spoke, in other words, everything he said was shite.

If it was then I'd keep my opinion. If it was Morgan I'd keep that opinion. Nobody should be spreading news about us to other clubs, media, etc. Whoever it is thinks they're untouchable. Captain for now though.

So if you spot maybe a potential weakness in the other team from a set piece, don't say anything because you might hurt someone's feelings. We need more players to stand up and be counted. I guess it's just differences in what we think is acceptable and isn't. They're all very valid points to be fair, but I'm more than happy for players to think outside of the box and try to change situations up if the opportunity arises.
Babylon Posted 5 February 2017 Posted 5 February 2017 The media / press guys pick with sky etc who talks to the media. Nobody and I mean nobody speaks after the game without them knowing. Claudio might not have known because it's sod all to do with him in all honesty.

Yep, you're right.............. he was out of his box and we need more players to stand up and be counted. We'll call that adraw then

No undermining going on at all. Like I said: CockneyFox Doing an interview without the knowledge ( if true ) of the Manager is undermining his authority

You can say Kasper is holding back on telling whats going on behind the scenes Good lad, future Leicester captain. Hopefully he stays no matter how this season ends. I wish the rest of them lot had this kind of mindset He's far too good for the Championship. No way he'll stay if we go down.

Danizen Posted 5 February 2017 Posted 5 February 2017 I've only just seen this but something I thought was interesting during the game was Schmeichel being more vocal and doing more organising than usual. Even when play was at the other end of the pitch. His reactions to the goals were more ferocious than usual and he seemed genuinely hurt. I came to the conclusion he lacked faith in Ranieri and was actively trying to lead the team forward. Watching that interview just confirms my thoughts. What was worrying me was the behaviour of the defenders. Particularly Fuchs and Simpson. There was a lot of arms being thrown in the air and arguing about who was at fault. Anyone else notice this?
FoyleFox Posted 5 February 2017 Posted 5 February 2017 4 hours ago, totbl said: Respect to Kasper for this, I wish he was our captain. I guess there's a leadership vacuum and he's stepped into it. Sick of Ranieri skirting around issues, I wonder how much he actually says of value behind the scenes. I used to think the media face of him was just that, but I can't actually imagine him having a real talk with anyone. And yet last season the players and staff all spoke of how Ranieri would be very vocal, rant and did get angry in private. He's just saying the same thing to the media every week which is pi $$ing us of but I doubt that's what's being said behind the scenes.
Dames Posted 6 February 2017 Posted 6 February 2017 Clearly wanted to say a hell of a lot more than he did. This interview really proves there is something wrong behind the scenes and the big elephant in the changing room is definitely going to be money. You can just tell there is a bitterness running through the team in regards to the new contracts that have been offered and how some peoples egos have developed. Certain members of the squad have gotten too big for their boots and because they were rewarded so much so quickly they believe their own hype and absolutely think its beneath them to do what made them good in the first place (Mahrez and Vardy being the prime examples here). We are in a dire situation as a club and we need to sell as many as these high earners in the summer as possible and return to a more balanced even keel. We are not and never will be a top top club and we shouldn't pay £100,000+ in wages ever.

When he was telling Rihad and the Team what they should do at the Free Kick was wrong in so many ways. Doing an interview without the knowledge ( if true ) of the Manager is undermining his authority How would you feel if you were Wes or Claudio. Don't get me wrong, good keeper and one of our better players but he may have added to the problem rather than resolved it. Oh come on.We have been desperate for someone to show passion and say how it is and I bet he hardly scratched the surface of his real feelings. As for undermining authority,sadly don't think Claudio has any left and Kaspers comments can hardly make matters worse can they. I am sure Wes had bigger things to worry about than Kasper doing an interview with a few home truths.
Ric Flair Posted 6 February 2017 Posted 6 February 2017 Kasper is a fiercly driven individual and I think he's often distanced himself from the clichés in football teams but his professionalism is always respected. Right now I can see there'll be friction and I'm sure heated words from him and many of the other players. He simply won't let this happen without a fight, I want more of it. I'd quite like to see him swing a bull hammer at a few of them on the pitch.

But the interview he gave yesterday he looked dejected. Embarrassed was the word he used. I believe that there is a rift in the dressing room. Kasper did say that they will fight to the end but I don't see any spirit in the team. Fight and spirit go together and I can't see either.

I know he doesn't have his badges but he could take a behind the scenes roll who knows it might work. Does that make sense
Roosters boots Posted 6 February 2017 Posted 6 February 2017 I noticed him yesterday geeing up the team when was 3-0 down Morgan just standing there with his hands on hips, it's a no brainier that he should be captain and the end of the game the fans that were left in the family stand gave Kasper a rousing applause and he returned it , you could see the passion in him and the pain of the performance. His comments were justified and exactly what's needed.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 6 February 2017 Posted 6 February 2017 He certainly should be captain and for me he is one of the best goalkeepers in the league. I wish everyone had his attitude this season because we wouldn't be in this mess if they did
Ricey Posted 6 February 2017 Posted 6 February 2017 I watched the players closely yesterday and I noticed Fuchs having a go at Ranieri at one point as his disagreed with Ranieri's instruction, players bickering with each other more than usual and players getting noticeably frustrated by a lack of movement. I don't think the unrest is all against Ranieri, I think the whole squad is fragmented and toxic.
simon789us Posted 6 February 2017 Posted 6 February 2017 Kasper spot on in that interview he's the only one who seems to give a shit a the moment give him captains armband drop Wes and huth play benni and amarty at the back Carnt be worse than we are at the moment
NotTheMarketLeader Posted 6 February 2017 Posted 6 February 2017 The interviewer asked him about the truth behind the allegations of players going to the hierarchy, whinging about the manager. He avoided that question by saying that he would not talk about newspaper stories, which to me spoke volumes. I.e., its true. If so, that's a disgrace. What could Ranners do about that lot yesterday. The game plan went pretty well until: The first goal: Huth made a massive error of judgement. Second: DD jogs back and doesn't pick up Ibra 2 yds away from him, nor did Wes or Huth. Third: Fuchs tries to play offside on the edge of his own area. On the other hand, don't know why Fuchs is starting - he's completely gone at the game and we have a very decent deputy in Chilwell. That was CR mistake. For me most of this is down to the players, bit if we could are going down with Ranieri, but staying up with A N Other, it has to be the latter and asap.
