Apparently Arsenal were on a pre-season tour that clashed meaning that we played Liverpool instead at Filbert Street. Didn't realise Arsenal were the original club to turn their back on domestic football, United got so much stick for the FA Cup drama after their CL win. I suppose the Charity Shield isn't half as big as the FA Cup, but still! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His standing might improve if he actually won something.

Dan LCFC Posted 31 July 2019 Share Posted 31 July 2019 Burnley signing Joe Hart last year was one of the most pointless signings I can remember. Made him their highest earner as well to arguably weaken a position they were good in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting far, far too ahead of myself here I know but I've already envisaged this scenario where their top target to replace him is Rodgers. At least if it was soon it probably wouldn't be.

You need to get off of that crack pipe Kemosabe. I remember Rodgers saying at Liverpool something to the effect of 'why would i destroy my career' by going there. Granted that was in the days of Levy bringing in a new manager every 6 months. Rodgers is not going to Spurs to give up the opportunity he has here. 'Ambition' is not loving what you do only to discard a challenge by taking up another job for a few dollars more. With Levy of all people? Rodgers is being backed here. He has the passion to be the best. Hungry for the challenge Leicester City brings. You really think this is just another job for him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't change the fact that he's a miserable sod with all the personality of a cup of tepid tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose the Charity Shield isn't half as big as the FA Cup, but still! We were invited as Second Division champions as opposed to FA Cup Runners-Up. More should be made of the game as the Spanish Super Cup is. Possibly play at somewhere like the Millennium Stadium to make sure fans of the big clubs have a variety. Make a thing about it kicking the season off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants a gig at the top 6 then I think he'll have to have us comfortably in the top 7 and into the latter stages of the Europa League.

Vardy to only get 10 goals with all thr extra service he'll be getting and the change to a more positive style. Be amazed if he's not in the high teens again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don_danbury Posted 31 July 2019 Share Posted 31 July 2019 how do they predict 10 goals if they're using stats? he had more than that in the season where he didn't score for like 4 months. plus he's on penalties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
