I disagree. They gave him the job because they couldn't get a name in that would satisfy their fans enough that not giving him the job would've been accepted. That's why they've pulled the trigger so quickly.

As speculated by many journalists in this local paper article.

Mate without falling out its something major to hire a manager of a club and all in agreement of boardroom level etc. They didn't just give him a contract and go na we don't really but we will anyway lol

I think that's exactly what they did do. If they were certain he was their man, then why sack him after 8 league games and league cup progress knocking Liverpool out?

It makes no sense.
 
We have a very experienced striker in Rooney, so if we failed to bring in a top quality striker he should be playing Rooney up top, save his legs and just keep him upfront, he still knows where the back of the net is, he knows how to find space, give defenders problems.

The Lyon game, Davies and Mirallas two best players on the pitch showing fight and desire, so what does he do?, he benches them the next game, what incentive is there to bust a gut for the team when you will get subbed the next game, if you play well you stay in the team, that's the message to send out.

It's piss poor management is what it is, he'll find something that works, then throw it in the bin the next game and start again, I've lost count the amount of times he's made subs and they've instantly made us better, telling us all he should have started those players from the off.

He's behaving like it's his first job in management and he's out of his depth.

47 actually.


Here's another one saying the exact same thing as me, from the Guardian. Whether I'm right or wrong it's not as laughable theory as you're saying it is.
In reality it is hard to escape the feeling that Leicester’s hierarchy never truly believed in Shakespeare in the first place, that deep down they wanted a bigger name yet felt they had little option but to give him the job on a permanent basis when he engineered such a dramatic turnaround as caretaker in the wake of Claudio Ranieri’s sacking.

Anyone else see the massive De Boer shaped hole in the logic?

I’d say Pickford, Lookman & Vlasic would turn a profit, but agree with your point. We wouldn’t get half of what Sigurdsson, Bolasie & Klaasen cost. We’d be lucky to get rid of Williams on a free, because no one would pay him (or any of those 4) what we’re paying them.

Onyekuru's value has also doubled already at Anderlect. Along with Gana they're almost certainly all Walsh picks. Walsh has gotten a lot of criticism but can you imagine the even bigger mismanagement of the Stones/Lukaku money if RK had been given free reign over transfers?
