If he still 100% committed to the club does he want out does he want to sell part of Leicester? Said fofana is not for sale at all unless a huge world record bid comes in no sold him for 75m so no where near! It’s a massive week for this club the board either wake up sign some DECENT players and back Bodgers or sign no1 and sack him mid September then by January we could be in a real mess! I think as a manager Bodgers has been found out with his tactics teams know how to set up against us and beat us pretty easily atm and it just ain’t good so a so called elite manager! big changes needed and at least 3 quality players through the door but I can’t see it. CB and winger must be priority! Before the window shuts surely Bodgers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are such push-overs - physically the weediest team in the dvision by a long chalk. Loftus-Cheek and Reece James just brushed our players aside - must've thought they were playing our Under 9s! and god knows what Mitrovich is gonna do to that defence of ours..

Its not always about quality. It’s about when the rot sets in. Just like it did under Holloway. I think we've had worst periods of form since we've got promoted back into the PL, we lost 6 PL games in a row under Ranieri, but comfortably survived that season. I'm not saying things are good at the moment but we've only lost 3 in a row in the league, with two being against Chelsea and Arsenal.

If that’s the general consensus at the club we’re in massive trouble. Who knows whether it is or isn’t, but relying on names and reputation alone is not enough to keep you in this division.

I don't think the club think like this. I think they ultimately will rely on the players getting us out of this shit. But they need to make a big call and sack Rodgers, so that a good manager can help the players with that mission. It's far too early to call for relegation though. 4 games in. Even with the predicament we're in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too early for calls to get rid of Rodgers, etc.. there’s different ways to lose. The way we have lost in recent games has been unacceptable. If we lost but gave it and we’re unlucky or just beaten by the better side, but have given a good account of ourselves, no complaints.

Evans since after his hamstring injury has been a shadow of his former self. Amartey is just as bad. Castange is decent on the attack but defensively he is terrible too. Not to mention we lost Schmeichel and replaced him with a bang average Keeper. The only way we can fix our defence is if we buy some new players. Our defence when Fofana was out last season was the worst since they started collecting data based xGA. And that was when we had Schmeichel. Clearly these issues have been around for a while now. Our defenders are simply not good enough at defending. Although Rodgers has been shit I don't think he can really do much about this.

Paninistickers Posted 27 August 2022 Share Posted 27 August 2022 We all on here should be used to the brutal nature of the PL by now. Going 4/5/6/7 winless streaks is entirely normal. For most teams. To flip it the other way, you can get streaks of luck. Arsenal are the living embodiment of serendipitous run of games. An average Palace. A woefully out of sorts us. An appalling Bournemouth. A ultra limited Fulham. 4 wins, and they are (wrongly) being held up as invincible reborn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think form can fix our CB situation. We simply need new players. Imo promote Ben Nelson and get one or two more in from abroad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am absolutely astounded that anyone can still think this, just how bad does it have to get for you to want Rodgers out? We’ve taken 11 points out of a possible 48 in the past few months away from home. That’s literally enough to get a team relegated (unless they have very good home form). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityfanlee23 Posted 27 August 2022 Share Posted 27 August 2022 Honestly I don't think we will get relegated. I have every faith that the owners will sack within the next few matches, and the new manager will have a bounce and get us comfortable with the squad we have. We have more than enough ability for a top 10 finish. Once Rodgers goes we will see it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 27 August 2022 Share Posted 27 August 2022 It's really not impossible at all. We have all the makings of a season like Everton's last year - and frankly I'm not sure they've got the same fight Everton had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
