Think that should be for every game until the end 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcelino Gattuso Farve Hutter Gallardo Bordalas Bosz Villas Boas I know Gallardo isn’t from Europe but any of the above would get more out of this team than Rodgers. That’s what frustrates me more than anything. Add Slot, Fischer, Glasner, Genesio and Svensson in jobs and there’s plenty out there to look at. ...you tell this to the crowd at the games, you will most likely find they have never heard of any of them!!!

I actually think Rodgers tried to fix the 'problems' from those games which in turn has nullified the directness we showed. This. We bounced because we had players not “Rodgered” yet. Some training sessions thereafter, with Rodgers wanting to “fix” the “problems” as he wants more “control” in the “modern” game, they have regressed, already. 4 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about mental gymnastics Ricardo - is the most talented ‘footballer’ we have amongst our defensive players. Faes - is obviously the one you are referring to Thomas - wasn’t signed at all as a youth prospect but brought through by Rodgers and has been playing his entire professional career to date under him so saying his wasn’t signed by him is not really the claim you think it is! Amartey - yep fair enough. But why is he still playing him? Edited 4 March 2023 by LCFCJohn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to you, for watching that crap again, and trying to make sense of it, I never want to see anything from that match or the Arsenal game ever again, the problem is, it isn't isolated either, so many matches I dont want to see ever again, this season quite telling really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really mental gymnastics, the quote was ‘he’s bought those players, to play that style, that’s the bigger concern’ - which like most of the guff on this page is just factually incorrect. There is a lot to be unhappy about with BR at the moment, but so much people are getting worked up about is completely made up. I think this is one of the main reasons FoxesTalk appears to be at a disconnect with the thinking of supporters that don’t go on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is one of the main reasons FoxesTalk appears to be at a disconnect with the thinking of supporters that don’t go on here. Maybe factually correct though as I say, at best really it’s 2 and 2 with Thomas. Four years on though it’s his team in his image and his responsibility. If Amartey and Thomas are seemingly not capable of playing out from the back, why persist with that as the plan? Look I get playing them as they are part of the squad and cup rotation etc. But have a plan B, these errors with these players happen time and time again and nothing change. I thought Blackburn looked much more comfortable playing out from the back than we did but that could have been because our attacking press was non existent so they had all the time in the world…. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jet64 Posted 4 March 2023 Share Posted 4 March 2023 The season we won the league I cashed out my 5000/1 bet after Jon Moss sent off Vardy. It dawned on me that the title could be taken out of our hands through no fault of our own and dodgy decisions could scupper the lot despite playing out of our skins. I have that feeling again with BR in charge; We could have the best squad in the world but he would still play the wrong team or tactics etc and throw away valuable points that should easily be in the bag Here’s hoping he gets it right in the run-in! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the fact that we were so arrogant to believe that we didn’t need to mix it up because they are a championship club - in the PL we do sometimes play it long (although it irks the coach when we do) but iverson was never going to go off script in the first half whilst we weren’t behind. we lost on Tuesday because the coach hadn’t got into the players heads that Blackburn were a threat - tbh, it reminded me of the gillingham game in that respect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine the Chelsea gig has inflated his expected salary too. Much, much better options out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corky Posted 4 March 2023 Share Posted 4 March 2023 12 hours ago, Nod.E said: My experience has been that most that are Rodgers in are mostly casual fans. They haven't really been on the journey of the past few years. Not properly. They still see Leicester as the plucky underdogs, the yo-yo team, the overachievers. They haven't fully engaged, so their view of us as a club is the default. They never dared to dream about how we might establish ourselves as regular challengers for top 6. Because we're just Leicester and 'isn't amazing all this success we've been having?' But we're just Leicester. It'll all be over soon and we should be thankful to even be in the Premier League. They'll often patronise you for not enjoying it. That somehow we should be thankful for 60% possession, 0 xG and spineless performance after spineless performance. Because we're only Leicester. IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE, who'd have thought it, eh? They're casual fans. They don't care. The same people will call it inevitable if we do go down and they still won't be Rodgers out because he won us the FA Cup. The like of Lineker projecting this "Leicester back to being Leicester" narrative helps this view as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
