we won't hire a big Sam type
talk was we wanted Rodgers in the summer, if they decide they won't wait maybe someone like Wagner, press keep saying Rafa but I don't see it

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
No Leicester player would make it into a top six team either.
I’d say Everton are stronger than Leicester in almost every position bar goakeeper. You could argue Vardy is currently better than Richarlison but I know who I’d rather have in the long run.
Chillwell, Maguire, Ndidi, Pereira, Vardy would definaltey get into a top 6 team. Everton only have Digne and Richarlison that would stand a chance.
No doubt about it. The usual suspects will be licking their lips at the prospect of another payday. Nothing succeeds like failure.
Couldn’t disagree more. All midtable players imo.
I guess the fact that Arsenal are in the top 6 makes it arguable that a couple of their players might make a top 6 line up but, let’s be honest, Arsenal are trash.
you realise Pep loves Chilwell and is constantly being linked to buying him, United of all teams constantly linked with Maguire and the only reason Vardy wouldn't is age
Yeah, he’s very inoffensive.
If I could banish any manager from the PL just because it’d be Puel. Can’t stand his weird facial expressions on the bench, and awful hair and teeth. He’s genuinely quite grotesque. Very silly voice too.
Get him out and bring Claude back for the Arsenal! (Not that one)
Actually, yes, definitely that one.
So predictable. Wouldn't be surprised if they gave it to Hughes and he was gone by December.
I’ve heard rumours but don’t know if there’s anything more to it than that. He could well be a fan but he’s also a fan of Nathan Redmond who is lower midtable at best. Chilwell has never impressed me to be honest. I’d be truly shocked if he became a first team player at City ahead of a fully fit Mendy.
Maguire isn’t all that either, is he? He just has the inflated reputation that comes with being an England player who had a decent World Cup. If he went to United I’d just see him being another all right but not great centre back to add to their collection. I really don’t think a team with aspirations of winning big titles should be considered Harry Maguire a first choice player.
Agree with Vardy about the age. He’d get in the Chelsea side at his peak but is clearly on the way down. It’s a matter of time till his pace goes.
Not this late in the season with a league title in Scotland up for grabs
The game was up for Puel when he played a weakened team against City in the Caraboa cup. City scrapped through the fixture with a second string team and then drew Burton in the Semi!
It was a certain final for the club and he blew it.

What is the 6 game rule Lineker was tweeting about?
Boring style of play, the home form has been poor and there's the cup situation too.
14 points at home in 13 games, just 14 scored too. As many home defeats as Cardiff, only Newcastle and Huddersfield with more. Away they have a similar record to Watford and Wolves.

That Leicester have now sacked 3 managers in a row when they have gone 6 games without a win.
I don't think Rafa is a fit for Leicester and I'm not too sure about Rodgers, I liked him at Swansea but haven't been real keen on him since then.
Thanks. Ridiculous way of running a club.
Beware all ye who enter here of the rule of six.
If six defeats you do endure, then your P45 you will collect for sure.

more to do with the fact we were in free fall under claudio, in the bottom 3 under Shakespeare and seem to be in free fall under Puel, Pearson didn't win in about 20 and kept his job
I heard about this Puel under heavy pressure in like September? Has only been reinforced since then and I'm not sure why. Leicester need to get on board with their next manager. I get that it is time to fire a manager when everything becomes toxic, but fan base needs to accept they aren't a title chasing team. Lets say some genius manager comes in but everyone turns on him immediately after a bad period and it makes it that much harder for him, it becomes a club problem not a managerial problem. That manager might move on to do great things without them. They want to be careful creating that sort of culture or environment for their own sake.
Every club has bad results that wouldnt be expected from time to time. That 1, especially when lining up using youth/young players and looking to the future isnt too bad.
But it wasnt just 1 bad result. He'd lost a bunch on the bounce, even though some were hard matches
The next manager isn't going to do anything more than what he did. I feel sacking the manager of a mid-table club with neither hopes of high position nor fear of getting relegated is just a waste of time.
no Leicester fan thinks we are anything better than 7th with an outside chance of nicking 6th when Chelsea/Arsenal have a shit season.
Puel could have done himself a favour by going all out in the cups
This has been coming for quite some time. The product on the pitch has been dire !! Poor game plan, poor substitutions and very strange player choices.
Leicester are in a similar position to Manchester manager wise. Some poor choices have been made but they need to get the next one right.
Been on the cards for a while, but I suppose most thought they'd struggle on to the summer.
Should probably remember who they are though, and not their lottery level surprise title win.

What's David Moyes up to these days?
Was always going to happen.
A better user of their good resources
Indeed
Really?
I can imagine him getting the sack because of underperforming in the cups... but the league? I mean the difference is negligible. I don't get it,
you wouldn't your arrogance is getting in the way
What are talking about pal? You're where you're meant to be. Know your station.
See Blackburn.
congratulations on further proving my point
Leicester must do everything possible to get a coach like Marco Rose!!!!!
Brendan Rodgers wouldn't improve them at all

They SHOULD be higher in the league. They should go try to snatch the RB Salzburg boss
Rodgers just quit Celtic so that’s him off to Leicester.
Yeah that’s what I heard, and Lennon to Celtic.
Well there you have it, Leicester is a more appealing destination than Glasgow.
He won’t last a season.

He isn't that bad a manager. Leicester is his ideal level, I reckon.
I don’t think he is that bad either, I think Leicester will expect too much him though.
