They're about the same age, they'll get on like a house on fire!

Both look complete perverts as well

Vardy's missus won't like him coming round and playing pool and having a beer. It will be a close run thing between her and our Brendan to see who gets in the paper more!

The most excited I've been about Leicester since Atletico home leg. 

 

The meltdown from Celtic fans is absolutely unprecedented. 

[gosfox]

I came on here today with the express reason to seek out the Brendan Rodgers thread......but I got hijacked by the Rachel Riley thread.....does this make me  a bad person

[Super_horns]

Might not get a reception at the Vic Sunday as ge left us in rather acrimonious circumstances but then it was a few years ago so most people probably have moved on !

Incoming Daniel Sturridge in the summer

Joking aside, he’s fluent in Spanish and French  

That could be a big plus for us if so.

 

Puel was by no means incoherent, but the majority of our squad* are fluent in English and there was certainly some difficulty in communication. Obviously Rodgers can speak English, but being able to converse in multiple languages will help any new/existing players who aren't quite as confident in the language to settle in .

 

 

*I can only think of Soyuncu, Mendy and Ghezzal from the first team/subs who don't speak English fluently. Anyone else?

I was wondering similar... 

[les-tah]

Rogers comes in. Evaluates squad, Summer arrives...opens war chest and buys a striker, finally replaces Mahrez and keeps hold of Tielemans, Leicester Snatch 4th place and European Tour Commences.

They seem to be taking it really well. Ain't our fault they play in a Mickey mouse League

I wonder if Slim and Silva May get another opportunity next season 

I think the ship's sailed on Silva. Tielemans seems like more what we need as a club and fits in more with the youth-orientated vision the board obviously have.

I'm sure as Rodgers' cousin, Nigel Worthington will have put in a good word or two.

This is probably going to be the make or break thing for Rodgers even very early on. Rodgers dealt with Gerrard very well, recognising that his physicality was going, but reinventing him at the base of their midfield with Henderson and Coutinho in front of him. He might have had an off season by his standards, but Vardy's movement and football intelligence is right up there, and of course he can finish.

 

On the one hand it would be easy to fall out with our older players, but on the other a good manager might get them up for a final hurrah.

And MON as well, 

O'Neill has told the Glasgow Evening Times that he has really enjoyed seeing the urgency and energy to Celtic, suggesting that he has given the entire club a lift since his arrival almost two years ago.

“What I have enjoyed seeing lately is the way that Brendan has brought a real sense of urgency and energy to the club,” said O'Neill. “You can tell the lift the place got just with him coming in and he has done tremendously well,” he added.

Celtic fans are a bit Spursy aren’t they.

[Corky]

Stringer said he was linked with the job before Pearson got it in 2008. I remember his name being mentioned in the papers but no-one knew who he was.

I know your post is two hours old which can be out of date really quickly on these things but he's currently trading at 1.1 on Betfair. 

 

This is not the same as a bookie offering 1/10, he would not be priced at 1.1 if this wasn't in the latter stages of happening. It's obvious he's in talks and the consensus is Leicester and Rodgers will agree terms. 

The relevant part of my post was that if it was all done and dusted then that’s another reason why it’s leaked 

 

clearly it was all done and dusted ......

[Mendi]

Will Brendan Rodgers be at the game tonight ?

Was watching a sky programme on his time at Liverpool and he said he was set to become our manager but we went for Gary Megson. 

 

Nice one Milan
