balo Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 I watched the game , it's amazing to see how the big change in mentality was , suddenly their back at their best from last season . Very strange indeed. Now Sevilla could be in trouble here, I wonder if the dream will continue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 I would love to see them win the CL. All clubs are pretty ruthless when it comes to sacking managers. Leicester are no different. Shakespeare is well in contention after last night. Dramatic or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicog Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 They tried to get Wenger in 2000 but the club blocked it. He's out of contract in the summer. Willing to bet they've already been in touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willing to bet they've already been in touch. I would imagine they have but I reckon they'll have quite a few on the short list alone and I don't think they will rush to make their minds up. Names touted around at the moment are Jorge Sampaoli (fav as stevieH said) Valverde, Koeman, Pocchetino and Wenger. Probably more to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmine Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Remarkable turn around for the team since they got their manager the sack. The new long term appointment would be well advised to watch his back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dabhand Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I watch the CL games on True and checked when the Leicester game was being shown this morning. It was on at 9.10 so decided to forego the 'pleasures' of getting up at 2,45 and placed an internet block on the house in the period up to 11am. Worked a treat and really enjoyed watching the game at a more civilised time, plus managed to avoid the temptation to have a look at the score when it was getting rather tense towards the end. Will do the same for the Man city game as the replay is also on at 9.10am on BeIN 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tut tut Stevie, blaming the poor players. Didn't you know this Shakespeare character (how can he possibly fail with that name) is a tactical master? He said that his plan was to "press Sevilla high up the pitch" and "it worked a treat", something that Ranieri would never have thought of doing, right? and Schmeichel gushed that "we had a game plan and kept to it." completely ignoring the fact that for a "game plan" to work, you've got to have the players on board before it can have any hope of working.. It makes you wonder how the 53 year old Shakespeare has been allowed to live in the shadows for so long without somebody picking up on his brilliance. He's had three home games in a row and, with the clapper happy Leicester crowd doing their best to lift the team, it's been a carnival. Danny Mills, a pundit who's got that superior air about him and talks as though everybody else is a complete c**t, reckons that "those people who said Ranieri shouldn't have been sacked, should be eating humble pie now". What is particularly galling is all the players, without exception, denied that they were instrumental in Ranieri's dismissal , the same set of players who made great play of the fact that they were down to earth, rough and ready types who had started from the lower reaches of the Leagues yet, when things started to get tough and weren't going their way, they downed tools and left Ranieri hanging by a thread. The same man who, nine months earlier had lifted them up by their bootlaces and cajoled them to realise an achievement that not one of them thought would ever be possible. That's typical of the 'gratitude' you're likely to get from the luvvies who call themselves professional footballers nowadays. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
