Enzo Maresca - Leicester City Manager

[H T B]

Reminds me of something someone said about our league winning team. ‘They have made ****s forevermore out of people who pretend that football is complicated’

Feels like with each passing year the club gets further and further from the conditions that made that possible, particularly keeping the players humble and hungry.

Only took over a hundred years to get there

Is anyone else on here sick to the back teeth of hearing about how ****ing nice the facilities are?

You could have the finest bone china on the world, but lay a turd on it and you'll still be consuming shit.

It's a good indication of where the club's at really. Not much to be said about ambition, style of play etc.....the shitters are pristine.

Profound.

Mate your team will play in front of LCFC fans. There is no ‘opportunity to play in front of them’. It’s actually going to happen.

Mate, it’s a second language for him. And he was responding to a no-doubt generic question about the fixture list. The answer didn’t need to be and was never going to be profound.

Agree - but bit of a non quote to use. Why bother.

‘Me eyes looked for the first home game…’ could easily be a Karl Pilkington quote. Has anyone checked to roundness of Maresca’s head? Have we been dold a pup by the mancs?

To take on Leicester City, he must have a lot more optimism than Karl Pilkington

He'd have got more from the fans if he'd mentioned that we were against Cov first.

For the record I think this season is going to be an interesting change. It's nice to think you can watch a football game without all the sky commentators going all rabid about the fact that the last time an Albanian scored an overhead kick on a Sunday in this fixture was in 1975.

I’m surprised to learn there was an Albanian playing in this fixture in 1975. Who was he?

Why do you think the commentators in the Championship wouldn't also be doing that? If anything, they probably do it more.

We'll be hearing plenty out of context stats all season about "Leicester haven't beaten/lost to Xxx in the last 20 years" despite the fact that we've played them twice in that time.

Not if we're not on TV.

Brian Anderson for us, Jim Brogan and Tommy Hutchison for them.

(Please note, I do realise Alba and Albania are different things).

Head like a ****ing orange.

Every time I go to the supermarket I think about his concept of his brain and his consciousness being separate and his brain reminding him to get leeks from the shop because his body is deficient in whatever leeks give you.
