Let’s be clear. He could get us in the top half, but there will be some moaners still not happy. 
17th or above will be a success this season, regardless of how we get there.

As some people have said, there were a number of Forest fans that were sad to see him go. 

 

From my understanding of it, he certainly galvanised the fan base and had the players working hard. 

 

Given the state of our squad this year, we are going to want to see a bit of fire and brimstone in our performances. Players running through walls for the team and "hopefully" being more than the sum of their parts. 

 

Fingers crossed he can bring a bit of this to the team.  If he doesn't then I suspect he will pay the price for it. 

 

We have to accept that we are starting again as a club. the last 10 years can be chalked up to history now and we have to build a competitive squad all over again. 

 

this is what being a Leicester fan is right??

I concede that I am very much in the minority here but I am relatively happy with this. He has had two club management jobs and improved the league position of both clubs he took over.

 

Swansea were 11th favourites in his first season and he finished 6th, then 7th favourites in his second season and finished 4th. Of course with Forest he did a very good job I would say.

 

His style of play, is of course, a concern but I think we have been very focused on 'philosophy' managers when he is a more pragmatic, Forest played well in the Championship, then he adapted in the PL, tried to change it to be more attacking but pulled back when it failed.

If you look at Kompany and to be honest even Maresca, I worry that a more stubborn philosophy based manager wouldn't have changed the way we played if it was clearly not working.

I don't think it is possible to judge exactly how we will play until we see it.


There were without doubt better options but I don't see this as some kind of huge disaster

I’m with you, I think this will prove to be a very good appointment.
