    A true gent BUT still the correct decision to let him go. I was more baffled when pearson went to be honest

    Sven did a good job for us when you look at the squad he started with. When he first came our team wasnt very good to say the least and probaly would of taken us down, But Sven used his contacts to get us some fantastic players on loan. Some of them worked out and some didnt but they easily kept us and but just ran out of steam when they tried to take us up. Sven has assembled a quality squad over the summer with big name players like Nugent, Schmeichel, Beckford, Fernandes, Johnson, Mills and Konchesky coming to us. They would never of gave us a 2nd look if it wasnt for Sven

    Because of his reputation and the money spent people will never give him the credit he deserves for what he done for us but when you look at the signings we was making before Sven and the players we can now attract. Sven deserves alot of credit for what he did for us. A true gentleman and even now has left with his dignity and his head held high

    Thanks Sven

    People raised an eyebrow when he came to a club in the bottom three of the Championship. Within a few weeks, it looked like the play-offs were a serious possibility. One year later, he gets the sack after we failed to win a game that could potentially have taken us into the automatic spots. Talk about a demanding job!

    Goodbye and thanks Sven, maybe your critics will begin to acknowledge your achievements when your signings go down in Leicester folklore.

    Thanks Sven, you are a true gentleman! sorry it did not work for you.
    Think you would have been loyal to the club, but imo your mistake was
    you defended the players, instead of giving them a kick up the backside
    tbh i have seen donkeys on Blackpool beach run faster than some of our players.
