Steve Cooper - New Manager

[dylanlegend]

If we have any chance of styaing up Ricardo, Vardy have to play as much as possible.

 

Our teams quality is dwindling with every new signing

wouldnt consider fulham that hard. more like a bang average pl side

What?? The same Fulham that beat arsenal at home last season 

 

I wouldn't put unfair expectations on this team .. it isn't going to help anyone 

[DezFox]

Completely disagreed with this appointment and still do. Nothing has changed. The worrying part is that there isn’t even anything to cling on to and build on. Completely what I expected, not even feeling annoyed about it. 😂

[mod hero]

Seems to me he’s trying mix his style with Enzo’s previously and coming up with this shit.

 

Theres no cohesion no patterns and no attacking intent. He’s hell bent on premier league experience which we had in abundance already.

 

The players are just looking round at each other and arguing which is a terrible sign.

 

Lets see what happens in the transfer market, maybe a couple of attacking players will help us but the warning signs are there already.

Fulham are an extremely solid team, especially at home. The gap is so big now between the promoted sides and the rest, with the possible exception of Everton. Even Forest should be comfortably safe.

If that the best cooper can do we are in massive trouble not even a championship display

He needs to go. This isn't going to get any better. Not felt this angry about a manager so soon after signing since.... Well since ever.

 

He's absolutely the pits. 

Wind up? 

[DezFox]

As expected

I think it depends how you feel about the appointment. I disagreed with it to begin with and still feel the same. Happy for him to change my opinion though

Why don't you offer a counter argument then? I'm sure people would love to hear why he's the right man and all the great things he's doing.

I can’t see any tactical logic for not playing Ricardo, Mav and moving Ndidi all around the pitch and expecting to be creative or bringing Soumare on up top.  
 

I’m sure radio Leicester will be too scared to ask any probing questions and will be full of milquetoast critiques.

Ok fair point... but equally so....share your ideas who you think would have been the right man for the job?

Prem experience but not ability. Reid and Ndidi are done.  Ayew will be a shit house but we need energy around him. 
 

Too slow out the back making the same mistakes. Vestagaard and Faes were much better last week when they were just concentrating on defending, not controlling the pace of the attacks.

To be fair the state of the performance was embarrassing. We've gone from a team with a plan to literally no idea.

 

Everyone knows this season will be difficult but the fact there is no plan, style or threat and signing 30 yr old + who don't improve us people rightly have a voice to disapprove. 

[Paninistickers]

You know what, I think we have just about enough to get away with avoiding relegation. 

 

Problem is we have two of our best players on the bench and maybe two more who could start.

fair enough they beat arsenal. i'd still consideer them a average side. their home form last season was bang in the middle and they finished 14th.

[nettle]

It worries me that he thinks Kristiansen is the answer at left back and Ricardo isn't good enough to get into the side. He either buys a new starting left back or plays Justin there. The style football being played is dogshit as well.

[The whole world smiles]

We would look absolutely mental if we sacked a manager a week into the season having not backed him in the transfer window it would effect our ability to bring in managerial talent for years! I can't believe people are seriously discussing it.

[egg_fried_rice]

I'm not blind to the situation the club finds itself in, including the somewhat uninspiring manager they've appointed, but gotta say - there is more than a touch of hysteria on FT and it seems to be catching.

I mean this is harsh.

 

Set piece goals are as important as any. It takes the build up play to win the corner initially.

 

And what about the goal on Monday was out of nothing? It was good play to win the ball back, ball out to VK, it was a great low cross from him and then a perfect ball from Fatawu to Vardy.

 

Yes, we might have had a lot of shots against us and not been dominant, but to say the goals are from nowhere it way off, for me anyway!

 

Both goals have come against the run of play and have been our only real chances. Not something you can see has been created out of our style of play or a clear tactical advantage, just individual quality, bad defending and Johnny on the spot type stuff.

 

Like I say hopefully we start to see an identity form, but today was worryingly passive.

 

To give him some credit there has been an improvement on set pieces so far and our heads haven't dropped quite as easily as they would have under Rodgers.

Im not sure what peipple are/were expecting?

 

We got 1 point in our first 7 games in tbe Premier league. 

Why would people think it's going to be any easier this time round with a weaker squad? 

 

Life is a journey .

Being a Leicester fan is a bumby road ..rough .smooth. highs. Lows. But realism is key.

 

He's had 2 games! 

[Bob Weasel Fox]

Cooper is an awful appointment and I still think he will be gone after 15 games or so unless we see a marked improvement in tactics and desire 

 

that said for now even the naysayers like me will get behind him and the team and hope he proves us all wrong 

[kingston_fox]

With Rudkin in charge blokes probably going to get a 3 year extension and a pay rise rather than the boot by Xmas
