    Losing a player like N'Golo Kante was a big blow to Leicester. He's now on for another Premiership medal with Chelsea so you can't blame him for wanting to move away.

    Looks like they might do all right tonight up 2-0.

    F@@k me Leicester looked a different side tonight.
    The first 5 minutes said it all.
    How can players who've looked lethargic for so long change into supermen.

    No doubt in my mind, however they tart it up, that they weren't 'doing it' for Claudio.
    Seems players hold all the cards.

    The original question, yes , sack Johnson and we might get the same result and Johnson ain't no Claudio Ranieri..

    I wonder if the same would happen to us if LJ was replaced?
    It worked last time with JP taking over from SC.

    Not guaranteed (nothing is in this game) but worth a go imo.

    I shudder just thinking about tomorrow night, I want us to win but what if we lose, we are like a helicopter that has lost the capability to control the direction we are supposed to be going in, if we win I will be delighted if we lose, god help us.

    Well if the players were holding back, then i would say how disgusting is that?........plus............To say Liverpool were shocking would be an under statement..

    If that is the case, I class them as Liars & cheats.....liars because they flatly refused the accusation of not playing for Claudio and cheats, because what they did to their club & fans.
    Who's to have said that tonight's performance wouldn't have happened anyway.......because Liverpool were bloody awful?

    1For, muddying waters again by saying Liverpool were awful and yes no doubt they were bl**dy awful.
    The point is Leicester players were totally different, you know it as well, but you're hanging on to dear life on LJ's behalf.
    They are a disgrace but proves if players don't 'like' a manager, for whatever reason, then he's had it.
    Mr Lansdown, and you, should take note.
    Night night.

    Seems like there is no point in having a manager.....just let the players get on with it! :emoticon-0137-clapp:emoticon-0137-clapp:emoticon-0137-clapp Liverpool's tac-tics to allow Vardy to run into space was comical......God you would have crucified LJ for that!!
    Can't stand Gary Neville, but have to say I 100% agree with everything he said tonight regarding this game against Liverpool. for those who watched it will know what i mean..They setup allowing Leicester of last season to play.....will be interesting when they play Hull.

    RP, you are just hanging on to situations justifying your hatred for LJ and will continue until he eventually departs from the club... I think the Villa game could decide it!

    While we continue to flirt with relegation the owner in his infinite wisdom continues to play Russian Roulette by clinging to LJ.

    Blackburn play Wigan on Saturday, that's a 6 pointer if ever there was !

    Imagine if we lose at Villa tonight and only get a point on Saturday against Burton....what will his Smugness do then ?

    Will it finally be the proverbial rocket up the ass that he seems to need to take any action ?

    What ever will be will be.....lots of what if's.
    We could sack LJ and still find ourselves in the same situation...I don't know the answer but seems like everyone else does!!

    That's called catastrophic failure... excepting it doesn't lose every direction all but one......

    Common sense when applied to 95% of clubs in this country would have seen a change of Manager several weeks ago.
