No idea why we extended his contract hi wife has cost him millions...we've done it as a thank you for his services and so he's not flat broke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well meaning? Absolutely! Do you think Rodgers would still be here if Vichai was? The answer tells it's own story. Top apparently sacked Pearson and Vichai re-instated him. Vichai had apparently told Puel he was safe but Top fired him a few weeks after the chopper crash. I've got no more idea what Vichai would or wouldn't have done than you or anyone else. The fact Top hasn't fired Rodgers despite numerous bad runs and player fall-outs shows how little any of us know what they're thinking at boardroom level.

We’ve seen Vardy as a shadow of his usual pain in the arse kind of footballer we’ve loved tearing defences apart taking on shots and scoring goals that shouldn’t really be going in, Unfortunately age & possibly the stress of his wife’s court case has caught up with him, I’m sure everyone of us would love to see him back to his prime but that won’t happen he’s off the pace and unfortunately Brendan’s thinking he’s our saviour has impacted on the performances of both Nacho & Daka who’s game time was reduced because Brendan was keeping faith with JV even tho his form has dipped he’s no Peter Pan !

To be honest, depending on which side you believe, it was the other way round with Pearson ie Top coming to the rescue after Vichai sacked him! Who really knows eh? Can't comment on Puel however as I have no idea. Lose against Southampton though after the debacle of the last 18 months or so, I couldn’t see many other Premiership chairmen not pulling the trigger! Will Top? Not a chance, I'll think we'll be stuck with him this season and beyond unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuchsntf Posted 3 March 2023 Share Posted 3 March 2023 Vardy is such a character,and Wiley experienced player,he is capable of giving us another season & with goals,important he’s always had eye for space, for himself or other teammates,he’s not reliant on his extra Valium of speed,he can draw goals from other skill sets. He’s had a lousy conversion rate this season…ain’t bad after several top seasons..Easy to question his age,but IMO can still deliver,but at present he’ll have to wait behind ( for the first time) Nacho.. Or after this Teams very poor season,where everything was a slung together chance. He could even now play in tandem with Nacho.. I am just now ponderin, cogs turning and meshing, could Nacho do a Birchenall & turn into a very competent attacking midfielder, who became a great interface for Glover/Weller/Worthington..It was working until his major injury,even chosen for an English squad get together,but had to pull out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only area where we seem to be scoring goals in the current system is through Nacho and Maddison. Most of the goals we have scored this season have not been typical 'striker' goals - I think the 4 goals we scored V Spurs is a good indicator of the type of goals we score. Vardy and Daka have both looked absolutely garbage this season and it's no coincidence they're similar players. The system Rodgers plays does not suit them. You can see if we take Maddison and Nacho out we're as toothless and as hideous as you could imagine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t think of a more much embarrassing incident for them to have to deal with…. Thailand is trying to move away from that historical reputation and this nasty video just placed it front and centre in people’s consciousness again… Pearson was done for as soon as that video came out…. We also don’t know how Nigel responded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
