New manager

[Bptiger]

Give it to the man who is about to lose his job , ruud van nistelroy, he wants to be a head coach, he’s got to be better than what we got

Was he ever alive? 

There was a time when the Colosseum in Rome was beautiful, the crowds would flood in, the anticipation of a great fight and seeing the opposition slaughtered was truly something, and that cheer still brings amazing joy to my heart. That was the KP under Vichai

Cooper isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Rudkin and co are just as inept and indecisive as Cooper. He mirrors the people above him. They will dither around until it's too late. They should be actively looking for his replacement, but due to the low betting odds and past experience, this isn't going to happen. They did the relegation review apparently, but learnt absolutely nothing from it. The same mistakes are being made, and no one cares. 

 

The players look flat and frustrated, the fans are annoyed and flat yet no one can see it board level. That to me either shows incompetence or they don't care. 

 

There is a massive disconnect in all aspects of the club and it's not getting better. The starting point is to get rid of Cooper, but the rotten core remains. Rudkin needs to go and a new fresh face in. Its become a job for friends rather than a business that needs to move forward with a refresh.

 

We're sleeping walking again to disaster and no one is taking control.

If it’s a choice between Potter and Moyes either option is significantly better than Cooper just do the deed now and get Cooper gone.

I have zero confidence that the club is putting feelers out

I think we could get Southgate who is more proven than Carsley. Potter doesn't wanna come, Moyes is a decent shout and would come, Mancini is also interesting.

potter maybe but he won't come....think we need to go abroad for a young dynamic coach who's had success at a lower level, but is progressive and has a good record developing youth. We can't afford to buy ready made players who aren't passed their sell by date

I wanted him in the summer. He did well at PSV.

To give Ruud some credit, he also made some fairly simple changes to Man United that made them way more stable. under Ten Haag Man United were way too open, and Casimeiro was exposed. So he put in Ugarte next to him and focusses defending down one side of the pitch to make the game more compact.

 

These things are pretty basic, but anyone coming into Leicester first and foremost needs to have a good idea of how to stop the rot, and there's some evidence RVN could do that.

 

He also makes the Turtle Neck look extremely elegant on the touchline!

I think it's pretty clear that if we do get a new manager in we need one who is more equipped to stop us leaking such poor goals....going forward we are ok but if we carry on being so easy to score against we don't stand a chance. Need to put ourselves in the position where we can pick up the odd surprise result or draw here and there against the better teams. No way can we just rely on games against the bottom half teams for points.

It’s baffling how almost all of us can see we’re sleepwalking towards relegation unless changes are made—this isn’t an overreaction. If it weren’t for the red cards at Southampton and Ipswich, we’d be sitting on just six points with Wolves right in the relegation zone. Yet, Top, Rudkin and co seem oblivious, viewing everything through cooper tinted glasses, ignoring how poor our performance has been game after game.

We will lose the next 2 against Chelsea and Brentford. After that if lose against West Ham at home that will be 1 point from 6 games and probably in relegation zone. Decision time for Top.

I absolutely think RVN would do a fantastic job motivating the players and making tweaks to the game in play. I would love it if he came to Leicester but unfortunately I don’t see it happening as the board will stick with Cooper and we’ll stay up by the skin of our teeth (do enough to stay up with four games left and then lose at least the next three).

Looks unbelievable in a roll neck too, that's no mean feat.

I think we potentially were on form (and luck some would say), for a top half finish this season. Unfortunately the last two premier league games have put us in a more uncomfortable position. We were tactically outdone and the manager needs to learn from this. The next few games are vital for us to get more points on the board and not be dragged down. We don’t seem to be able set up a defensive formation effectively, so without Vardy we are very exposed and can appear toothless.

Ultimately he would still be a fairly risky appointment. I think he should have taken the Burnley job personally, as that would give him the perfect chance to find his style under a bit less pressure. But credit must be given where it's due, and Man United notably improved under him, fixing some of their key issues. Their attack is still focussed around individual quality, but it would be hard to fix that in such a short space of time.

[Happy Fox]

I like the look of Ruud, and wanted him in the summer, he would have been a far better option than Cooper!, Carrick at Boro, yes he hasn't got them promoted, but they play good football, and could see him having an impact here if we go down the young and upcoming manager route.

 

But would rather go for experience at this level, so the likes of Moyes and Potter will be considered.

He was lucky in the fact he had two games against us. I reckon they knew Amorim was interested and had to sack Ten Hag when they did otherwise he'd have won some games against us and made it more difficult to sack him then.

It normally gives a slight indication, I know not scientific, but gives a feel that something will happen.

Either way, huge upgrade on Cooper.

Think this should be shut until he's sacked as it's confusing every time I see it thinking he's gone when he's still here
