Ruud awakening for the Premier League!

[fox_favourite]

So, how are ethe media team going to announce this one. Coopers announcement seemed like a rushed job by an apprentice that was leaving in a few hours. 

 

I think the club will make big song and dance on this one as it's Tops pick.

He's got charisma. That should hopefully give the players a lift in the short term. I'm expecting a ding-dong battle against Brentford.

 

He won the Dutch cup and finished second with PSV. Some might say that's about par for the course. But we've seen other teams besides them, Feyenoord and Ajax do well in that league before so it's still an achievement.

 

What's unknown about him is if he can translate the limited success he's had into the medium or long term. Do we actually need to worry about that? Probably not right now. If vibes keep us up and he gets poached then job done.

If it's not a video of the Vardy celebration "all f**king mine" and then cutting to him looking a bit sheepish and hiding behind a book shelf or something with Ruud being shown around the training ground then I'm gonna be disappointed

Somebody’s already changed his Wikipedia 😂

Anyone posted this yet?

I think Leicester City gets undersold by us fans sometimes. Maybe it’s just a Leicester thing? 
But we have a good stadium and a very, very impressive training facility.

Let’s hope Ruud hits the ground running, and is a long term success!

Up the Citeh!

At least he will give us a system to play and a positive outlook. Players will know their positions and responsibilities and hopefully in January we get new blood in and get rid of the dead wood wous faes included

We weren't doing anything at all under Cooper. 

 

Neil Warnock would have been an upgrade. 

 

You'd have to go back to the dark pre-League One days to fine a more lost looking Leicester than Cooper's. 

[Lako42]

Our managerial appointments are literally pulled out of a bag. 

 

 

Zero long term vision or plan.

Could we have a song for him. Rudie can't fail by the Clash. Rude he can't fail would be the inspiration. Words needed. Will pop something on later if it is a starter.

It’s probably somebody on here that’s changed it.

He’s certainly a legend of the game, but isn’t particularly young in terms of management and has done nothing. 
 

Those reading into anything during his 4 games at Man Utd are mad. Totally different managing a side full time to a few games picking the team (far more talented than ours). 
 

It’s certainly a gamble. There were plenty trying to pretend Cooper was great when we got him, seeing the same again.

 

I’m on the fence with this.

I do have my reservations about Ruud. Not sure he'll have enough to keep us up. But saying that when Cooper was appointed, I wasn't impressed at all.

 

I'll back him and give him time, and hopefully he can shift those reservations I have. The team around him is vitally important. I don't expect a Rooney/Lumpard/Gerrard type of failure, he has a lot more about him then that and gone the right way round about learning his trade. It's a big step for him as well. 

 

I'll get behind him and let's be positive this season. One thing I will say, he won't take people chatting back at him!

With his experience as a top striker he will turn Daka into a black prime vardy!

It’s not all about you!

Breath of fresh after Cooper ball 🙏

[Finnegan]

Worst case scenario he can probably register himself to play and do more than Eduard so far.

Sounds like we've been interested in him for a while, which is a positive at least. Rather than just pumping for a name who had a few good games managing Man U. 

 

It's unfathomable though that we just aren't tracking managers all around Europe who fit exactly what we want our style to be. We seem to say this year after year after year.

Seems like he could play 3 atb with the inverted full back coming into midfield, shame Ricardo is now injured.

Stop your messing around (ah-ah-ah)
Better think of your future (ah-ah-ah)
Time you straighten right out (ah-ah-ah)
Creating problems in town (by playing Cordoba-Reid) (ah-ah-ah)

To what tune? 

[Mike Oxlong]

It's definitely a roll of the dice but we were going down under Cooper so nothing to lose in that sense, particularly as there aren't any significantly better candidates who would be likely to come to us atm
