If I was a Leicester fan that appointment wouldn't fill me with confidence.
How do these same clowns keep getting jobs?
Strange appointment for Leicester in a relegation battle, his teams at Brentford Villa & Norwich were wide open, suppose a big Sam style manager wouldn’t have the right players to achieve necessary results. Looks like they’ve gone for a get everyone smiling style coach & hope for the best, ok until John Terry shags Vardy’s missus
100% agree. I actually think it's rather lamentable that the same old names are being given lucrative contracts when their past records show that they have proved, time and time again, that they are simply not up for the job.I think Leicester have dropped a massive bollock appointing Smith. Their only hope is that they might have players who are good enough to keep them up, if not, they're gone because I can't smith offering too much inspiration to his players.
what's the story re the training ground?Leicester, the club that does things the ‘right’ way.
Built a training ground and lost a team.
Definitely the ‘right’way !!

This appointment is yet another example of a club saying: "Oh, he'll do for now. We'll sort something out a bit later."
Leicester should know full well that giving Smith the job is tantamount to putting a first-aid plaster on a dismembered limb, utterly futile.
When he royally fucks up (which he will) and they kick him out it will cost them millions and will have held the club's progress back a decade or so.
this is my goto video and it's 5 years oldThere must be no better job in the world than getting on the football manager merry-go-round. Most of them are useless chancers who don't give a shit about their clubs as they would have left the game if they cared.
The daft thing is, they’ll end up on Sky Sports with £millions in the bank spouting shite about other teams and telling us how the next batch of shite managers are great and getting well paid for it.
But teams that play that style still have to train and be coached in it. It's not as simple as just shunting players behind the ball even if that's what it looks like.There'll be a fuckin' big parked Leicester bus for us to negotiate on Saturday. He knows that if they go looking for anything more than a point, they'll be ripped apart. Damage limitation on Saturday against us. The real job for him starts after City.
Not sure if you're agreeing or disagreeing with my comment.But teams that play that style still have to train and be coached in it. It's not as simple as just shunting players behind the ball even if that's what it looks like.
