It’s a water cooler chat this :) 

 

Just passing on the latest gossip round the manor ;) 

 

me personally I didn’t believe it and probably still don’t , but I’ll be having a bet on it Today as it’s a decent source 

 

fools and their money ......

Great bloke and a great manager for a team like Leicester. He lives a 56 minutes drive away from our current training ground, so it’s a much better situation for him managing Leicester than Burnley.

 

I love the fact he will be watching Burnley one day, the very next day he will be the other end of the country watching his son play at academy level. To me it just shows a great desire for the game. 

 

The fact is, in this day and age, the players generally decide the managers fate. The players have the power, and there are very few situations where managers can control the group, and those that do tend to be the successful ones. 

 

Pearson was a great example of this, but to be able to do it is a gift. Dyche is similar. Not many can handle the likes of Joey Barton, but Barton says Dyche is a great manager, the best he has ever had. 

 

Dyche will try and create that strong group ethic like what Pearson put in place, but with a much bigger budget than he has at Burnley. It feels this will be just right for both Dyche and Leicester. 

 

Puel has come in and the players are rebelling, this then creates a massive risk as the wheels can totally come off if he does not manage to gain control. 

 

Dyche is a different animal. He won’t ever be right for the likes of Arsenal, but he could well get a group together that bonds well that keeps us in the top half of the table for the next five years. 

 

I would love this to happen.

Dyche would also get fired if there are not immediate results and not be given time to build a strong group.

Do think we're going in the right direction under Puel?.. Just asking as 4 wins in 17 games doesn't suggest we are? 

I know the argument may be he hasn't had time to build his own squad etc but the owner's aren't going to be filled with confidence (and handing out a substantial war chest) on the back of what they've seen so far.  Are they? 

I'd love to see Eddie Howe here and he's more likely to come than Dyche!

He would walk barefoot over hot coals to be our manager. In the pecking order of football Burnley are as far behind us size and financial as we are to man United. And yes I know there above us in the league.

Not presently but I have seen performances like the Spurs win and Chelsea draw that suggest he COULD be quite good given time. I dont know really. I just cant be ****ed with changing managers all the time without anyone else at the club (cough Rudkin cough) being replaced. We will end up being the next biggish Prem club to end up back in the Championship because I do not think they will get anyone better.

 

Eddie Howe isnt all that imo, but he has had years at Bournemouth to get his side midtable in the Prem.

Dyche fired if no immediate results?

 

Really?

 

I think the current owners have given all of our managers a very fair crack at the whip, even giving them the benefit of the doubt through rough patches

I don't want him personally. He's done great things on a shoe string but how often do managers then fail when they suddenly have money to throw about? 

 

If we're gonna start going down that road of firing and hiring willy nilly with no look at an ethos or style we want to implement (as we're constantly told puel is doing) I'd rather just give puel the summer.

He already lives not far from Leicester so why would he be buying a house near Leicester? I very much doubt he'd come here with Burnley heading for Europe

Europe??!! The Europa League just throws up another load of energy-sapping fixtures with no glory. No chance of Burnley (or us for that matter) getting anywhere near the final.

Personally, I wouldn't want to see Dyche's style of football here from what I've seen - Burnley look like a very organised Championship side - no flair but good at grinding out slim results. Is that what we really want to see with a stadium expansion on the cards?

Considering that you've sacked three managers in the last three years - two of them within a year of winning a championship - I doubt that's how it would appear to an outsider.  Especially as if the whole premise of these recent posts is that you're currently in process of playing a very dirty trick on manager number 4.

cant wait to see us lumping long balls up to 35mill signing Chris Wood and our fans moaning saying we should try and keep the ball more and pass it.

I think you could argue that of Ranieri, but certainly not of Shakespeare or Puel.

 

All irrelevant anyway. You're deluded if you think Dyche will walk away from a club where he's a hero and has been allowed to go up, down and up again before achieving European football with them to come to somewhere where nonces want you out after a couple of bad results, and the owners agree with them after a couple more.

But you know it won't happen. LCFC have far too many "pound notes" for the likes of Dyche who wouldn't be able to sign star names, just workhorses and water-carriers.):)

 

Anyway is the Foxes' job that appealing?

 

Pearson: wins championship, organises the Great Escape....reward: The Tin Tack;)

 

Rainieri: wins PL, Champions League group-winners............reward : The Tin Tack:)

Are we though? Giving Shakey the job suggests otherwise.

I know this is an old post but these kind of comments keep cropping up and I'm sick of hearing how Shakespeare was a disaster for us and is now some kind of benchmark for managerial craposity.  The bloke kept us up when we were in terminal freefall and saved us from the embarrassment of being relegated champions and a laughing stock.  Deserves our respect and gratitude for that.

 

He also coached us through promotions and the title win.
