Is the press conference being streamed live anywhere?

 

[Lako42]

BBC Radio Leicester have the exceptional Ian Stringer covering the press conference.

A policy change from the club it seems.

Just saw from Twitter that Paolo Benetti, who worked with Ranieri at Inter and Monaco, is new Assistant Mananger. Not sure if that's confirmed or revealed in the press conference... hope we're not losing Walsh and Shakespeare though.

Interesting photo of Top and his father along with John Rudkin(?) watching the players training at Belvloir Drive this morning, on the club website. Photo number 29 of 29.

What happened between Stringer/RL and the club that caused them to stop talking??

I was at the games last year so barely listened to it at all but back to being a pauper this season

Ranieri on how many players he may need to sign: "I think 2 maximum 3 players before the end of the window."

I think this is one of those, they can stay but their remit may well change things.

Speculation (including some pics from training) indicating that Paolo Benetti will be assistant manager, Andrea Azzalin fitness coach and Giorgio Pellizzaro goalkeeping coach.

All are regular members of CR backroom staff.

So Mike Stowell can concentrate on making the tea

Much more like it, I reckon.
