We need to get Graham Potter in, he'll be available shortly.

Why the **** would he come here? 

[iancognito]

We should have had players in the door in the first week of January. There's "some" money there and it needs spending but we've known about the shortcomings since August so it should have been all set and ready to go. Instead we've had lethargy again. Nothing from the board, frustration from Rodgers and apathy on the pitch.

That said, that's a disgusting performance in a local derby, the second in a year. No motivation, no leadership, just nothing. Players not even trying. 5 wins have masked an awful awful season. Look at our fixtures coming up. We could be back bottom very quickly and this time with no way back out.

 

Players, manager and board need to look in the mirror and sort their shit out.

[Weller was god]

8 year old kids can keep the ball longer than us... Absolute shambles 

[Bablemikey]

With the number of players reaching the final months of their contracts, inevitably there will be a huge transformation, possibly including the management too, given the length of their tenure. Whether that turns out to be good or bad remains to be seen but it does feel like something of a knife edge.

I think we’re ****ed even with a new manager. Everyone thinks get rid of Br and things will revert to ‘normal’, it won’t. 

Im not even asking for normal, what’s normal to us Leicester fans anyway? Definitely not this dross. We have half a season left to throw the dice, why not try and salvage it because we’re certified relegation as it stands.

The inertia is frightening. Everyone else is signing players in an effort to stay up. It's halfway through the transfer window, we have lost five games in a row, squad weakened through further injuries and signed nobody. 

 

Surely the money was in place and finally the new Head of Recruitment to move swiftly in the transfer market?

This was the sound logic but the club is rotten top to bottom at the minute.

 

A major clear out and changes are needed.

[Nalis]

If we play even at 50% of our ability then we win, despite our massive injury list. At the minute it is barely even 5%. Thry have injuries too but its mainly fringes players.

 

A gifted 3 points. Rodgers needs to go.

Bang on, we all know we needed reinforcements buying players at the end of Jan with the money we do have is too late having missed the easier games in Jan which could have made a massive difference to our season. Now anyone that comes in will be playing Tottenham and arsenal etc in feb which we will probably lose anyway. So dumb

[Kasey Keller]

We’re the worst team by a country mile in the league.

NO confidence 

NO desire

NO effort

NO goals

NO leadership 

NO glimmer of anything being done to turn this sh!te around.

Championship incoming 

Stadium expansion to be scrapped

The last 6 years success is unravelling at a frightening pace

I should have clarified - ability minus Rodgers.

[Onions]

If Barnes could shoot we’d have been 2-0 up, the moment he missed that chance in the 2nd half it was obvious what was happening. 

 

You can blame Rodgers, but when Vardy & Barnes are missing like that, what can he do? We were comfortable until the goal. 

[Vazman]

Not one person in the Leicester City Team, that played, deserves their wages this month, Diabolical annoyed and angry watching us diminish 

[lcfc thrummy in Aus]

That didn't hurt like it should have.

City fan since late 60's, I'm so sick of Rodgerball, he's sapping the love of football out of me , and stuffing my beloved LCFC.  

[Matt]

For the people asking 'how has it got this bad?'

 

It got bad months years ago.

 

Glad you've finally woke up though, shame it's too late.

It's so frustrating cus we were on a good run before the world cup. If we could have brought a couple of players in early in the window we could have kept that momentum up. Instead they've been allowed to drift into trouble again. I'm sick of hearing the club are working hard behind the scenes. That to me means they're transfer strategy isn't working cus the hard work should be done before the window opens

[Spudulike]

Just shows how much we miss Kasper and can't even rely on Vardy to get us out of this mess. 

 

Another stuffing next week against Brighton. 

[somebum]

Becoming comical now. 

 

Shite from TOP to bottom.

I don't understand why people don't get it. The style, the tactics, the formation - its unbelievably negative. Barnes misses a chance, but its literally the only thing happening all game. We had 3 shots - 3!!! How are we going to put anything away when you barely create anything.

 

If Barnes puts one of those away, he merely papers over cracks. Do NOT let Rodgers off here.

The clues were there when he had a huge break and a lot of time with the players before the covid restart and we came back a shadow of a team and bottled that huge lead.

 

I’ve been Rodgers out since barring a brief period when we won the cup. 

[Birkdale Fox]

Was Top at the match? If not, no way is anything going to happen this weekend.

I do wonder how many targets have looked and said " nah, l wanna play in the prem next season"

As I've said before it's getting harder with the obviously poor manager and running of our club (to anyone but the conned/ media/pundits) to attract any decent talent now.

First game for a long time that I’ve deliberately not watched on a live stream. Just knew we were going to lose and sad to admit I also put money on Forest to win.

 

Feels like the end of an era and back to good old yo yo Leicester City

 

Its been a great last 10 years though ain’t it?

 

How's it feel to be a forest fan then? 😂
