The narrative that he behaved impeccably isn't really true - he sulked for most of that summer. I don't feel sorry for him in the slightest. Always annoys me that the “leaked” convo he had with Vichai regarding his move came out in the press twice during the saga. A bit of class and integrity, that convo should never have been public knowledge given it was used to apply pressure on the Leicester board and more specifically Vichai’s son who was still very much grieving. I don’t mind ex-players like Kante and Mahrez doing well as even though they left and in Mahrez case he tried to apply pressure. That move from Maguire (his team) was below the belt and left a bad taste in my mouth. The “free” £80m softens my position somewhat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I do get the feeling they may allow 2000 in tier 2 areas soon as well. Tier 2 is 2000 fans ... or did you mean tier 3 ?

Jobyfox Posted 9 December 2020 Share Posted 9 December 2020 12 hours ago, lcfc_forever said: That's backed up by their expected goals standing - they should be higher in the table based on this. Tottenham and Southampton in particular are overperforming, thanks to the incredible finishing of Son, Ings and Ward-Prowse so far and the expectation is that they will revert to the mean. Sheffield United are underperforming hugely, it's their finishing that's letting them down massively, as well as Brighton. As well as the issue that you mentioned, the big problem for Brighton is they're not taking their chances upfront and they're conceding more than expected too - their overall play is good but Ramsdale and their strikers are underperforming. They won't be easy, we'll need to be on it against them. Yep - that would explain why they're underperforming. (I must admit, though, that I'm not entirely sure that anyone could blame Sheffield United's goalkeeper for Brighton's poor defensive record). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The “free” £80m softens my position somewhat I have no problem with Mahrez or Kante sulking/forcing a move because over time memories of mahrez waiting around at an airport on transfer deadline day will fade. But the memory of the clubs greatest season in a 136 years will live on! All Harry Maguire had to show for his 2 seasons here was a couple of 9th place finishes. PS I wouldn't read too much in to the Vicahi stuff agents are some of the most dispicaple, unscrupulous people on earth. You can't really judge footballers by their agents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please explain buddy because you clearly know more than the rest of us. I can only assume you are a close family friend or his agent or perhaps the chairman of the football club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to get at them from the off before they have time to settle, we are giving away to many point to teams in the bottom half of the league.

If we play 5 at the back against Brighton I think we will lose. I’m not just generically bashing the system but simply because of how they play. I think they will just sit a bit deeper on Vardy and our chances will be limited. They however, always create chances and with our defensive woes, I’m sure they could score. Go into this with a strong front line and I think our quality will be too much for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RumbleFox Posted 10 December 2020 Share Posted 10 December 2020 (edited) On a different note. Kante finally being played in his proper position again and showing everyone his god like ability. Top of the interceptions chart already. I love Wilf but my god Kante truly is the GOAT at what he does. Probably the best player to ever play for us. Love the wee guy.
