They'll be going for the manager who knows how to get them out of this league but always helps if you still keep your good players, Maddison looking for £250,000 a week ffs if he was that good he'd have kept his team up, just my opinion mind.

 

Gerrard could get Leicester back up I reckon

 

I guess if Mount is asking for that sort of dough then he can as well if someone is mug enough to pay it. Vardy will give it another year and Wout Faes will probably not look like a competition winner in our league of dreadful slop.

 

FT Roma 2-1 into the Europa League

Spezia v Verona in a relegation play-off, as they have the same points and don't use GD for that situation.

 

Vardy has legal fees to pay but just saw this and you're right he's going nowhere!

Jamie Vardy signed a 2 year / £14,560,000 contract with the Leicester City, including an annual average salary of £7,280,000. In 2023, Vardy will earn a base salary of £7,280,000, while carrying a cap hit of £7,280,000.)

Rumour is that there were no relegation clauses in the Leicester players contracts

 

Not sure where that's coming from ... certainly not local Leicester press ...

 

Football has announced its retirement from Zlatan

 

Rumour ain't all that ...

 

All seems a bit up in the air, like us you need to sort the managers job ASAP.

On the surface, Leicester may appear to be in a decent position to make an immediate return to the Premier League.

Playmaker Maddison - the club's crown jewel - and £60m-rated winger Harvey Barnes are expected to leave, but should fetch a fair price.

The 'parachute payments' that follow relegation will boost the coffers too, so they are set to bounce straight back up, right? Wrong.

If Leicester's search for Rodgers' replacement was farcical, the lack of a plan for their players makes for even worse reading.

Seven are out of contract in June, including internationals Youri Tielemans and Caglar Soyuncu, who would have commanded significant transfer fees if sold last summer.

Deals for a further eight players expire next year and, with cuts of up to 50% written into contracts should the club be relegated, there is likely be a huge overhaul of the staff.

Leicester's wage bill stands at £180m - the highest outside the top six - with Maddison, Jamie Vardy and Ricardo Pereira among a number of players to earn in excess of £100,000 a week.

 

Not ideal

 

Missed this last night. Very happy for Roma/Jose despite the ****housery lol.

Also a special mention to Ibrahimovich who retired after Milan's final game last night at the age of 41.

When you look back at the clubs he's played for and his impact on them, he's had an incredible career. Always enjoyed watching him play. Footballing legend.

 

Bloke’s an absolute cock.

 

Read this the other day

They also have some complicated loan repayments to make to MacQuarie bank that will eat up those parachute payments.

Most expensively assembled and highest paid squad to ever get relegated

That's one record @FosseFilberto won't be quoting endlessly lol

... and were they sold last season, Ponky? ... and how did Tielemans get on with you? ... did he play enough games for you to get a Prem title winner medal? ... oh but wait

 

What do you reckon Maddison and Barnes are going for now?

 

Don't be jealous.
