We had the chance to really go at the so called rich 6 a few years ago and didn’t. We instead a year or two later started sticking average (being generous) players on huge wages and have just fallen off a cliff. Don’t trust anyone at the club anymore and while Top is a legend, I don’t know if he really knows what he’s doing or what to do next. They’ve gone through so much over the last few years, so it’s no surprise, probably got a lot on his plate with King Power. Nice to see he’s at the games but feel sorry for him, as he wants the best for us but not sure he really knows what to do. Just a feeling, hope I’m wrong, but from outside looking in, it’s really worrying. ...you do feel that something has changed at the club, the original plan has changed and we are not too sure what we want or what is possible!!! The train has come off the track, we know the destination, but the driver just doesn't know how to get us there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trabuch Posted 20 August 2022 Share Posted 20 August 2022 I have to wonder if Praet wasn't involved with the despicable thing that Soyuncu was involved with. I'd like to see the photos. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royston. Posted 21 August 2022 Share Posted 21 August 2022 Are the players behind Rodgers? It looks as though they are (or at least enough of them) If they were unhappy they could speak up and once Rodgers can see he's lost them he might have the grace to resign. Maybe he has lost them already but refuses to quit? Conspiracy mode now but maybe Schmeichel voiced his concerns but was overruled so decided to leave? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dan LCFC Posted 21 August 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 21 August 2022 4 hours ago, Finnegan said: I mean both of those fifth place finishes were either par or even slightly below par for the quality of the team he was putting out. I do find it frustrating and a bit confusing when our own fans act like Rodgers went above and beyond to achieve that. I'd expect it from BT Sports pundits but I'd expect our own supporters to have a bit of a more balanced and reasonable view about the quality of the team. Rodgers has one of the best teams lcfc have assembled in its history. His achievements were absolutely acceptable in his first two years here but they weren't above and beyond. Yes, absolutely, if you only look at results he has a higher win percentage than O'Neill did, he won a trophy O'Neill never managed to, he got further in Europe than MON and finished higher in the league too. But he also had a squad assembled for him that cost vastly more, had much greater quality in it relative to the rest of the league, not to mention incredible facilities and club infrastructure that managers before him could never dream of. Rodgers has done an alright job here but he's not pulled off miracles by getting us to compete for a top four spot, it's where we were on the merit of the quality of player we've had for the last few years. Rodgers ultimate strength as a manager is knowing when to get in at a club. Absolutely nailed it with Celtic and Leicester really. I really at this point just think he's a complete fraud. He's been badly found out. Can see a Villa or someone falling for it though. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadianFan Posted 21 August 2022 Share Posted 21 August 2022 I was really looking forward to this season, believing that we had an excellent squad and, as long as we didn’t repeat the long injury list of last year that we would be in the top 10, pushing for top six. Then, amazingly, the manager announces that the squad isn’t good enough and he needs wholesale changes during the Summer. Eh? How is that supposed to build confidence and engender loyalty? He literally said that he would be getting rid of a load of players and replacing them with better ones. As if that weren’t bad enough, he said that knowing full well that selling the likes of Bertrand, Vestergard, Amarty etc would be nigh on impossible. He knew the financial challenges in the club better than any of us, but said it anyway. No wonder we can’t sell anyone. We look desperate and get no offers or lowball offers for the second string. Did he seriously think we needed to sell Fofana, Tieleman’s, Maddison, or the other decent players? In my view, he was simply setting up an excuse for failure…..which, ironically, helps precipitate the failure. It is all on him. By the way, does anyone believe that the half time talk resembles anything that Conte, Tuchel, Guardiola or Klopp would deliver? Hahaha. Don’t make me laugh.

Deeg67 Posted 21 August 2022 Share Posted 21 August 2022 Villa isn't going to bail us out. Nobody is going to. The board will either bite the bullet and do the right thing or guard their pennies as the ship sinks under the waves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fear would be more than they are comfortably able to pay. And the way this thing is going I can't see clubs lining up to lure Brendan away.
