Pre Match Leicester v Wolves

[Joe_Fox]

The new manager bounce will only pay off if they get someone in by our match. They have a week to do that. Seeing as they just backed their now ex-manager, surely they didn't have someone lined up (unless their backing was less than genuine which of course it probably was), they might have a stand in manager for our game, like we did for the Brentford game.

I think most clubs have an idea of how they want to play, and a shortlist of suitable candidates they would want/approach.

‘Most’ clubs…

Wolves are the only thing standing between us and oblivion.

Let’s hope they are as bereft as we are.

Wolves set to appoint Vitor Pereira as manager according to Ornstein.

A journeyman Portuguese coach currently working in Saudi Arabia. Never done anything much and no knowledge of English football. Main attribute would appear to be that he speaks the same language as most of the squad.

Even more batshit than us choosing RvN.

...Never done anything much...

Apart from back to back league titles in Portugal and a league title in Greece.

Winning the league with Porto is like winning the league with Celtic. They pretty much always finish first or second.

He was only at Olympiakos for 6 months and they win the league almost every season.

Spent his whole career playing on easy mode then

The equivalent to Man. Utd. appointing Amorim then.

No, not at all like that.

Sporting hadn’t won a title since 2002 before Amorim, now they’ve won two in the last four seasons.

 

[Robin127]

But I thought it was easy to win the title in Portugal.

Some teams don’t win it.

It is if you manage Porto.

Blimey.

It's a bit like Vincent Kompany currently top of the Bundesliga after stinking the PL out last season.

Will RvN have Ndidi, Soumare and Winks available for this game?

No, yes, maybe.

 

[Brown Nose]

Pretty sure their best player won't be playing for them for a while.

 

[FOX Franks]

This is very good news for us.

 

[Blaarev]

Ait Nouri is also suspended thanks to his red card 10 mins into added time against Ipswich

 

[jb5000]

Pretty sure their best player won't be playing for them for a while.

Possible though that they might not have got round to suspending him before we play them though?

 

[ThaiSweetChilli]

Skipps been bad, eh?

Thought he’d be at least a useful player.

It’s moves like this that make me wonder. £24m I believe? Who the **** authorised this?

In terms of the Wolves match, probably depends on whether they get their manager in or not. If it’s a caretaker, I believe we win.

Leicester 3 -1 Wolves
