Thing is with Rudkin here he will just pick another name out of a hat or someone he heard on the Radio. The guy really is utterly clueless.

Or someone an agent has pushed upon him.

I think it's inevitable that at some point, Brian Barry Murphy will take over until the end of the season. Preferably ASAP.

Faily sure this will have been posted somewhere, but I'm sick (not just from the result).

 

 

We are the mighty Leicester City. Still setting new records even when playing badly.

Unfortunately the hatred for Cooper duped many of our delusional fans in thinking we were signing RVN the striker and not the questionable manager.

 

Cooper was judged on more his background as a Forest man and even some I read in here didnt like his looks LOL. You couldnt script it. Considering he had no money and could only add players probably worse than what we had, ended up keeping forgotten men like Soumare and Kristensen who most of us thought had zero chance of getting back into the team (I wish they were punted out personally) its obvious to say we dropped a knad making this managerial change when we did.

 

RVN has arguably been the worst manager we have had, We do not look organised, the gap between defence and midfield is scary, we have some decent players but he keeps picking largely the same team and tactics even after heavy defeats. He seems quite stubborn and not a risk taker which when you are down, you probably need to be. Worrying he doesnt look passionate or a motivator, probably because he knows he is out of his depth.

 

Time to go as it cant get any worse.

Cooper was judged on the team’s performance under his stewardship which was fckin woeful from day one.

We all laughed when Cov turned down RvN (allegedly) and appointed Lampard. 

Don’t even know if he was interviewed 

Burnley turned him down though

The buck stops with Top.

 

It was his vanity project getting 'a big name' in as a manager.

 

This is all his fault. 
 

Even when we hired Martin Allen his stock was on the rise. I genuinely think he's worse than Peter Taylor.

Agree its time for him to go.

 

What went wrong though is we paid £25 million for Skipp when we should have spent £3million to bring Corberan here instead of Cooper. 

 

And this isn't with the benefit of hindsight, we all saw he was a better appointment at the time.

 

We may still have a rubbish squad, but it was a squad Maresca got producing results last season and all we have to do is come higher than Ipswich and Southampton who we beat last season, and one other team.

 

(And if Man City ever get the heavy punishment some say they might, just getting higher than these 2 again would be fine.)

 

However the way we're playing the only question is do we beat Southampton to the bottom?

It is not our proudest record.

 

Speaks volumes about where we are as a club.... but will anything change???

Says it all about the current administration at the club that we replaced a terrible manager with an even worse one. Another Top / Rudkin / Whelan masterclass.

At least we were scoring goals and creating chances under Cooper, and we were outside of the relegation zone.

 

We have deteriorated significantly under RVN. Need to change the manager now to give the next manager any chance of picking up points over the last 5 games of the season.

Any Leicester fan with a decent footballing knowledge could see the points he got were not deserved and this is as much his making as anyone. 

 

 


Yeah people are completely rewriting history because Ruud is slightly worse. When people compare the results, they ignore that Cooper got two games against the only other sides in the league as bad as us. Even in those games we didn’t deserve the points. 
 

We were abysmal under Cooper and we’d be in the same position if he was still here. His signings are still one of the biggest issues.

Sorry but losing 6 home games without scoring a single goal is beyond horrific. We did score under Cooper. Rvn is an absolutely horrendous manager out of his depth. 

Not a great squad but we are going backwards under him. 

Shocking utterly shocking and cannot believe he hasn't been sacked yet.

 

Anyone defending him at this point thinking he needs a transfer window needs to wake up and look at the facts. 

The thought of him being around for the next game makes me shudder. 

 

Taking a poor team in 15th to one that can't even score in 6 games at home, some of those ganes against relegation fodder that we haven't even competed in. 

 

It's beyond farcical he is absolutely terrible. Sets us up the same. Same failing ideas. 

 

Setting records now at being so bad. 

 

Someone defend him I dare you.

I do think he should go. The idea of a manager sticking with one formation regardless of opposition or circumstances, to me, wreaks of inexperience and incompetence. He'd rather play Okoli at right back than (heaven forbid), try a different formation. 

 

However, it's all a bit immaterial. Would we have won more points under Moyes? Yeah, probably. Would it have been enough to stay up? I'm not so sure. Everton actually have very good centre halves in Tarkowski and Branthwaite, and that can't be understated. 

 

You simply can't be competitive with such poor centre halves. It's the spine of your team. The base to build from. We're all the while second guessing ourselves going forward as we're so aware of the weakness behind us.

 

Every time one of our air heads at the back makes another mistake, which is every game, you can just see the rest of the players literally deflate. Must be so demoralising to know that no matter how well you play, it doesn't really matter because we're guaranteed to concede at the other end. It's all for nothing, and it's evident how demotivating that is. 

 

Added to this, from an attacking standpoint we've gone from last season's midfield and wingers consisting of:

 

Pereira

KDH

Fatawu

 

Their replacements?

 

Soumare: Had some good games but ultimately still switches off too often

 

Bilal: Shown promise but still raw. A good signing, but not yet reliable for a return of goals to build a team around

 

Ayew: Defender's dream. 

 

Meanwhile, we have Kristiansen and Justin starting every week at full back. Two players Enzo had absolutely no interest in using in the Championship.

 

Added to that, Jamie Vardy, who was rotated in the Championship, is used for 90 minutes every week at a higher level, another year older. 

 

It was a Championship squad that limped over the line, and we are significantly weaker now than we were then. 

 

RVN does need to go, but we never stood a chance.

 

Heads. Must. Roll.

He was harshly treated. His only job was to keep us up, if the season was stopped the day he left, we'd have stayed up right?

 

We weren't playing well, but it's pretty clear this squad is appalling, so you might say by getting undeserved points he was fulfilling the aim.

 

I'd say the 'narrative' by journalists that he was harshly treated is probably less strong than the narrative by a good number of Leicester fans that Cooper is a shhit manager, but that opinion is nothing to do with him previously managing F#rest.

Nobody wanted to come we were favourites for relegation. He got his 3rd choices and when he left we could score and were 15th. I don't believe in luck. You make luck we even fought  our way back in the odd game but some people couldn't get past the forest connection or see the board knew tic tac football wouldn't work and we needed a slogger to just keep us up this season playing ugly football. 

 

RVN is twice as bad as Cooper.

Cooper would have kept us up with undeserved points.

If Ruud walked - unlikely that he walks away from £2million though of course! - or indeed  was sacked (still unlikely) - then I could see Vardy and Kingy taking care of the team until the season's end for sure...regardless of Top, Rudkin shenanigans, etc.

Vardy is part of the issue.
