foxes67 Posted 19 February 2017 Posted 19 February 2017 Matt I agree the players do need to turn up and play but we don't understand why there not kicking a ball after last season. Think any song would help build a better atmosphere to at least to try and play for us Maybe managers fault could be players paid over odds now and no players capable of replacing the crap on the pitch from the bench,i think we needed fresh faces after winning prem so we could show same desire and fight to go forward and win again just my opinion m8 were all fighting for the same outcome..

ROB-THE-BLUE Posted 19 February 2017 Posted 19 February 2017 Megson 25/1 Can you imagine the reaction to him being appointed?!

HybridFox Posted 19 February 2017 Posted 19 February 2017 Whether the board decide to sack Ranieri before the end of the season or not, I seriously hope they are drawing up a contingency plan behind the scenes. Whether we stay up or not, he SURELY has to go at the end of the season (if not before!) Knowing Leicester, they will sack him and spend weeks without a replacement. Getting rejected one manager by another... What a farce we have become
seenitall Posted 19 February 2017 Posted 19 February 2017 We will draw in Seville and beat Liverpool just you see - the thought of anyone on that list is enough to make you cry so pray this happens and we don't get rid of the greatest manager we will ever have for one of those clowns.

There are some great tools at Leicester to really push the club forward if we can get a quality ambitious candidate in. I don't really have any names but someone like Wagner if he's all he's proclaimed to be.

Oxfordlcfc Posted 19 February 2017 Posted 19 February 2017 If we are to be relegated then michael Appleton is the man for me no nonsense guy who is very underestimated done well at oxford and he has never been given a second thought at when clubs looking for a manager

Surprised Hodgson isn't at shorter odds, remember our owners have appointed Sven and Claudio and approached O'Neill a couple of times. I'd expect it to that kind of manager a respected "known" figurehead, so from that list Grant, O'Neill, Hodgson possibly Klinsman or Ramos

Why is the thought of Nigel Pearson enough to make you cry? I know many aren't fans of his, but are you saying he wouldnt improve the team over what it is now? You can't honestly lump him in with the likes of Pardew and Megson

Vichal: Can we get Mr Bielsa or Mr Hiddinck? John Rudkin: No. Vichal: How about about Martin O'Neill? JR: I could try him again, though he threatened to have me beaten up last time. This Huddersfield manager looks good. Vichal: Would he come? JR; Err......no. I was just throwing him out there as an example. Vichal: What is the use of you? JR: I'm Director of Football. Vichal: Could you do the job? JR: No, I'm perfectly happy being Director of Football. I don't need more death threats. Vichal: How much money do I pay you? JR: That's classified. Vichal: You are starting to irritate me. Are there any other international class managers out there? JR: Yes, loads. Vichal: Would they come? JR: No. Vichal: How about Mr Mancini? JR: I did try him. He laughed and put the phone down. At least he didn't say no. That means we can put him on the shortlist. Vichal: How many names have we got on the shortlist now? JR: One. Vichal: Is there anybody you can suggest? JR: If we pay Trillion Trophy Asia five million pounds we can get to talk to Gianfranco Zola. Vichal: He's an internationally known football figure. I know that. I remember all those goals he used to score for Arsenal. JR: That would be Chelsea, sir. Vichal: Would he come? JR; Undoubtedly. Vichal: Really and truly? JR: Yes. He's also based in the Midlands, giving him an unparalleled view of what Midlands fans like to see from their team. I would say he is perfect. Vichal: If this goes wrong, I'll threaten to fire you. JR: Oh, sir, you are a card. Vichal: I'm serious. Go out and pay roughly twice the amount it will need to get him in. He'll like that.

You can't honestly lump him in with the likes of Pardew and Megson I think Pardew is probably streets ahead of Pearson - he can just about manage a team (although his Prem team where way worse than this lot at this stage a couple of years ago) and given four or five attempts could probably get a team out of the Championship again but I think his personality defects have tainted him for most clubs and I'm sure whatever went on between him and the owners/board here when he got the bullet means he won't be coming back - top be honest he is the least likely to get a gig here of possibly anyone in the world - I'd say Sven has more chance (now there's a thought )
NeilLCFC Posted 19 February 2017 Posted 19 February 2017 Since Ranieri has destroyed everything, We need an Arsene Wenger type manager who knows how to run a club. If the rumours are true and he is done at Arsenal, would be great to get him. not that it will ever happen.

I can understand why people don't like NP but to try and argue against what he achieved is mind blowing. And by saying that does not take away from last season. We are way worse now than in that first season we came up, also consider the budget we have now compared to then.

We have to be looking for someone who can last!

Please note I never said I thought it would happen. Given the mess Ranieri has gotten us into, the point I'm trying to make is that we need a manager who can actually manage a club, not just a coach.
