That's....scary
They *might* after the Fofana sale but you’d think they’ll need a good chunk of that to get a replacement. It’s quite funny as an outsider that his signings have been so awful that he will have to be kept on
Needs three years to build his team or something. Beat that hipster manager Cooper the other week too.
Brennys at the wheel

Remember that long ago time when he was going to get sacked? 
Wonderful goal by the Saints
Keep Rodgers At king Power
you lot should hire him, then get rid after 2.5/3 yearsRemember that long ago time when he was going to get sacked?
I saw this bumped and came to say why he hasn't been sacked yet, but I guess not.
Not gonna lie, only month ago I thought it was matter of them before Rodgers would be sacked. Some good results since then and they're climbing up the table and look better.
He turned it around, they've been playing some good football lately and look more stable at the back.
Looked dead in the water and I was sure it was over for him at Leicester, but it is good to be reminded sometimes that not everything in football is black and white and not every manager that used to be succesfull have lost the dressing room and are finished when the results are not going his way. If this good form continues, credit to Leicester for backing him
Actually pretty nice to see a manager being able to turn it around, regardless of who he is and what club he manages. There has long been a tendency to simply sack someone when results start going the wrong way. It's quickly implied that the dressing room is lost, and there is no way back. Good to see it is not always the case.
I can’t stand Rodgers. But you are absolutely right.
Big fan of Rodgers. Pleased for him that he’s turned the corner with Leicester. They played very well in the bits I saw tonight. You’d expect them to progress up the table now.
Well said and agree 100%
Yeah. Although this is the first time I’ve seen a manager turns things round after he seemed to actively want to get the sack.
Credit to him. Hes obviously a good manager.
Totally agree.
Wonder how long he'll last. I fancy Liverpool to absolutely pummell them tomorrow.
This page, yikes. Wins over Everton, Wolves, West Ham, all near the bottom of the table and he's turned it arouhnd.
2 points off the relegation zone.
Will he be gone before Lampard?
Will he be gone before Lampard?
I hope so, no one is shocked by this, he's wasted so much money, injured half our squad and blames everything on lack of signings and injuries. Worst of all he's sucked the enthusiasm from the fan base
Amazes me every week hes still there at this stage.
I have been saying this in work for months now
Are his purchases the reason you cannot spend money because of FFP now?
People seemed oddly desperate to declare that he'd turned it all around after a couple of wins on the trot, all seems to have fallen apart again since then
Some people really wanted this fraud instead of Ten Hag
To be fair he's been dealt a bad hand. Last season he had rotten luck with injuries, and this season he just hasn't been backed by the club. They don't seem to afford being able to sack him either.
When he has been backed he's made shite transfer decisions though according to the Leicester fans.
So the alternative is to not make signings anymore? Do they have a DoF? I'm not entirely sure what Leicester's plan here is. Its clear they desperately need investing in their squad.
I suppose the alternative is get in a new manager.
yes, we can spend again from this summer but we needed to sell to buy and have no one we are willing to sell that someone wants
we hired a new head of recruitment after the last window, we have a DoF but as I said we needed to sell to buy, we have been making offers but none accepted yet.
What we need to do is fire Rodgers and get our old physio, the man that had fans of other clubs jokingly accusing us of PEDs back from Bristol City and tell any future manager he is untouchable
Didn't you sell fofana to chelski ?
yes and bought Faes, we still have some money to spend and have made some offers
How is this fraud still in the job? Maddison is single-handedly the reason they aren't rock bottom.

Rodgers has his defenders in media that's why there is the "he's not been backed spin, with any luck Spurs or Chelsea will do something dumb and hire him in the summer, he's been here 4 years tomorrow.
