Popular Post Tielemans63 Posted 29 September 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 29 September 2019 I love him. What a manager and what a team. Amazing time to be a Leicester fan. I hope Vichai is looking down and loving every minute of it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StriderHiryu Posted 29 September 2019 Share Posted 29 September 2019 Totally agree. already a ton of Rodgers threads so let's consolidate them, but yeah he's the real deal. A better coach than Emery and making Solskjaer and Lampard look out of their depth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny_wright Posted 29 September 2019 Share Posted 29 September 2019 How far we have come since the “previous manager” is unbelievable! Just shows how correct most of the fans were and how lucky we are to have Rodgers! I just hope we get to keep him for years to come 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Year Of The Fox Posted 29 September 2019 Share Posted 29 September 2019 He’s going to have a hell of a job on his hands keeping the players happy Praet is class. Tielemans, Wilf, Choudary, Maddison, Barnes, The Lord Albrighton. They could all be within their rights demanding a starting 11 spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we had a pretty hap hazard manager recruitment process previously. If someone had said Rodgers was not only available, but would come to us. I’m sure pretty much everyone would have said get rid and get him in then. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A better coach than Emery and making Solskjaer and Lampard look out of their depth. He ain't all that, just marginally better than Puel. In all seriousness, he's clearly building something here and long may it continue but don't you rate Lampard? I saw most of their games and I'm see clear signs of improvement. They're still shaky at the back and probably won't have a great season by their standards, but I really like how they play and he's levels above the Hobbit imo. Only thing I don't understand is why Pulisic isn't getting game time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing I don't understand is why Pulisic isn't getting game time I do rate Lampard actually his team has an actual style to them. But they lost 4-0 to Man U and there’s so much space between their midfield and defensive block that it looks like Moses has parted the seas and led people to freedom through there! That’s why I feel it’s kind of obvious at times he’s still learning the role, though he has a lot of potential. Regarding Pulisic - he’s vastly overrated. His fee was so large because being USA’s best player his commercial value is enormous. That’s not to say he’s bad but he’s probably a player that should be at a Leicester than a Chelsea. His statistics were not that good at Dortmund and once he got injured Sancho came in and never looked back. If you compare the two then Sancho is way, way better. Pulisic could become good but I think it will take him quite a while to get there. I’d rate Hudson-Odoi and Mount as better players already I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had thought of Pulisic as a Leicester target just before Chelsea signed him but I'm not so sure he'd be in the 11 the way this club is going. US media is up on arms over him not playing.

I completely agree with that, however it was his first game in charge and ManU had an usual clinical finish. I feel that the gaps are tightening though, and Rüdiger will come back at some point. I back him to do a much better job than OGS who already looks like a dead man walking. I guess I fell for the hype then, as I didn't see much of him when he was at Dortmund. Mount is impressive and Sancho the real deal, I'd hate to see him end at Old Trafford, although it's likely to never happen. Maybe a cheeky punt from us, lol. I guess I'll stop derailing this thread.

Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 29 September 2019 Share Posted 29 September 2019 I still think Puel wasn’t far from getting the team to play like this... ...is what I would say if you’ve just sectioned me. Bloody brilliant. 15-16 will never be forgotten, and quite rightly so. But are we knocking on the door of a new era of sustained success? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazzerfox Posted 29 September 2019 Share Posted 29 September 2019 It's not just the manager, the owners are magnificent. I look at ALL the other clubs and I honestly think we have the best owners in the premier league and beyond. It's a great time to be a Leicester fan at the moment, we are building something special.

A better coach than Emery and making Solskjaer and Lampard look out of their depth. They are both out of their depth. Lampard may turn into a decent coach, but it's far too early to say if he'll be successful. As for OGS.....I still can't believe Man Utd appointed him. I doubt any other P/L club would have even considered him. So far out of his depth it's almost embarrassing. And to think he is in change of rebuilding that club! If he's still there by Xmas I'll be amazed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle were poor, bereft of any quality. We played positively and won well. 'Genius' we read on here! Man Utd were equally as poor. We played negatively and lost. 'No better than Puel' we read on here! The reactions on here will always reflect our latest results. Half a dozen bad results where we play badly and this forum will be full of 'get rid'. Martin O'Neill was right when he said 'a manager is only as good as his last result'. We're probable not as good as we think when we win, we're probably not as bad as we think when we lose!

murphy Posted 30 September 2019 Share Posted 30 September 2019 He has charisma, much like O'Neill has and I think that goes a long way in terms of motivation and man-management. I think we are a great fit for each other at the moment but if he continues his success he will be off at the first sniff of a top job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
