Couldn’t believe our game pretty much was nonexistent listening to talksport this morning, all the heat on Lampard and Moyes tonight. Just shows the media protection and high regard of Rodgers, he can do no wrong in their eyes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our decline is so, so much worse than theirs and it's actually been orchestrated by our own manager. Lampard has kept Everton at the same (albeit poor) level. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just shows the media protection and high regard of Rodgers, he can do no wrong in their eyes. Similar in the evening, too, on the drive home. Lots of callers from Newcastle and Everton. In the 1hr 15m journey back, I think there was one call about our game and it was from a pissed up Fulham fan singing the CL theme tune . But, as much as we find ourselves in despair right now, Everton are by far in a worse position both financially and with their status dropping. I don't think it's a sign of Rodgers doing no wrong. I know you'll probably say 'well we're in the shit now and Rodgers is being protected etc' but if we're really being honest, we're not as bad as Everton are. They've had eight managers in 9 years. That in itself shows a club with very little stability. Like Watford but on a grander scale because of the money spent. Serious amounts of money with no return. And they show no signs of getting better with Lampard there. I'm not dismissing our problems here, by the way. We're bad, but not Everton/Lampard bad.

Its just the media and press just don't like reckonise us as one of the big wigs despite us winning the Premier league, fa cup and even community shield along playing champions league and europa league for the last six years. That counts for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I’m not going to say that, what I am going to say is maybe we should do something about it to atleast try and stop the slide, attempt to nip it in the bud (we’re way past that by about 1.5 to 2 years by the way) before we encounter the ultimate issues Everton are having.

Okay but that doesn't relate to your point about Talksport deciding to talk about Everton instead of us. What Talksport decide to air, and what we can do at Leicester are 2 totally different things.

Tielemans, Praet, Soynucu, Perez, and Mendy are all significant first team members who we know will be off shortly. Vestegaard, I'd imagine, is none too keen on being here (though we've priced out the competition). It would not surprise me if Maddison were to be looking to move away though, mercifully, there doesn't seem to be any chatter about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they say 'be careful what you wish for' but I think I'd take that. The team would get the refresh Rodgers says it needs! Worry about a replacement if/when the time comes to find one. It's certainly not my place (nor even my expertise) to name one now. I'm pretty sure our 'recruitment team' look at potential new managers also, there'll be a list of interest/possibles somewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricey Posted 4 January 2023 Share Posted 4 January 2023 The club is in desperate need of a refresh, a new era. Last night was my first match since the World Cup and I just felt so flat. It looks like everyone has given up. Nothing will change whilst Rodgers is still here, he is too stubborn and single-minded for that. I think we'll stay up, but we aren't going to meet our expectations until we snap ourselves out of this rut that we are currently in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
