It's strange, because despite winning the league, I'm almost more excited for the coming season knowing someone else will be in charge. Grass often isn't greener, but I lost excitement going to games with his football. Spot on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bourbon Fox Posted 29 May Share Posted 29 May 12 hours ago, davieG said: 'I watched every Leicester home game - Here's why Chelsea fans won't like Maresca' BY CHRISTY MALYAN PUBLISHED 5 HOURS AGO The Foxes may have won the Championship but supporters aren't too disappointed to see him leave. https://www.givemesport.com/leicester-chelsea-enzo-maresca-tactics-fans/ 'But even when facing less competitive opposition, Maresca always seemed to keep the handbrake on. Rather than using possession to checkmate defences into conceding well-crafted team goals, the Leicester boss appreciated it more from an attritional standpoint - constantly moving the ball around to physically and mentally grind opponents down. Maresca's resistance in moving away from that strategy regardless of the opposition resulted in the Foxes often failing to kill off significantly weaker teams, instead allowing games that could've been wrapped up within the first half-hour to drag on and regress into a keep-ball training ground exercise.' That's a direct hit of an assesment. The annoying thing was that we didn't look like that at the start of the season, and we did score some wonderful team goals: It just seemed to stall and regress as the season wore on. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajthefox Posted 29 May Share Posted 29 May I'm disappointed as I wanted to see what we could do with Enzo in the PL. What concerns me is our next appointment and the fact that we don't have continuity, which I think is an often ignored or downplayed aspect of things. That said, maybe with the compo and an opportunity to reutilise some assets who haven't had much of a chance under Enzo we can manage to survive.

An Away Move Posted 29 May Share Posted 29 May I imagine Vesty will be seriously considering not signing with us until he’s had chance to speak with the new manager. He was truly excellent for us last season, but played in a different system reverts back to be being a liability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the many reasons this all needs sorted quickly for our sake - I don’t see any other managers style giving vesty a new contract - it was very unique the way he fit to marescas plan - just can’t see him in any kind of back 4 at prem level without us playing that exact way - even with us playing that way he would need 2 electric quick players either side of him to stand any chance this year - with a new manager we have so much to do and sort - need someone in place in next 2 weeks for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Food chain of life - the second tier of clubs that sustain top flight football and relative success are the ones that have a plan and a bloody good one - do we fit into this anymore - I’m not sure - yes we are being forced to be reactive here but we should have replacement lists lined up for everyone if we have done our homework and are ready for all eventualities - recent history would tell us we could be in big trouble here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but Poch cleary let the board know they were a bunch of tospots who had no idea what they were doing. Enzo won't do that cos he will just coach the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
