It can get you results, but is very hard on the eye most of the time As I said in another comment, I can guarantee he will be one of the most divisive managers amongst your fanbase you will ever have

Also about inverted fullbacks, Enzo absolutely loves that tactic For us Ricardo was our inverted FB, and being honest it worked a treat for him and potentially saved his career because he went through pretty much Injury free, having said that it was in the Championship and most of our lot were far too good for the league It seems he prefers to play his RB inverted so I imagine you will see alot of Reece James in the middle of the park when you have the ball

Totally mate and he will be a very devisive manager for your fans I feel, it says alot when over half of our fanbase couldn't wait to see the back of him, even though we got promoted under him He left me with more fond memories then not don't get me wrong, and it was a case of job done when we went up, having said that we nearly blew a 18 point lead so more relief 🤣 It's boring football majority of the time I won't lie, and the 90 mins watching can feel a chore but he seems to get all his players buying into how he wants to play and the majority of our lads seemed to really like playing for him

Alright fella, Leicester fan here again I see some are already not happy with how the system looks, granted its only pre season, but get used to some boring, turgid football for the majority of the time under Enzo I have no doubt he will get you results, as he did for us, but even at 1 up in most games he very much set us up to sit in and defend what we had, then counter when the chance came, he made comments after we beat southampton 5-0 that he wasn't too happy with how we played because we didn't control the game enough and it ended up like a basketball game We struggled so many times to break teams down who play a low block, constant sideways passing, slow on the ball Also his in the league expect to see your first sub around the 70th minute mark, whether you are winning or losing

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall - Decent Squad Player
Last season he stood up to the plate and delivered more often then not for us Struggled however in his couple of seasons with us in the prem though Extremely one footed (left) however and when hes not on it, hes really not on it, sadly can see this being a Drinkwater 2.0 But he is a real model pro, a cracking lad and will run his arse off for you though and has always given his all for us Sad to see an academy lad sold however for the price I'm pretty pleased All the best KDH 🦊

Next Manager (post Poch)
Another Leicester fan in peace here I think this news has surprised most in football, let alone our fans Personally he leaves with my best wishes, got the job done in the end that was set out for him, nail-biting to say the least though, and even though I should feel gutted, strangely I really don't at all He will go down as such a strange manager for us, half of the fan base are glad to see the back of him, purely for his (at times) style of play that could be, and I agree to an aspect, very boring to watch, his stubbornness in playing the same players week in week out, no matter if they were having an absolute stinker, the refusal to go to his bench in order to change a game (a highlight of this is when we had been 1-0 down for 89 mins against Plymouth, been crying out nearly all game to go 2 up top and he decided to bring Daka on with about 3 minutes to go) and his stone cold belief in the 1 way he will have his team play, winning, drawing or losing (again he came out and said after a result of ours this season that if he gets an inkling that there was a section of our fan base not happy with his style then he would leave) I think we may have even won that game aswell 🤣 I hope it works out for him with your lot, but I can't see it with how ruthless, and clueless your ownership seems to be, they seem to want success instantly, with Enzo I just can't see it, he's very much a project manager, so I doubt will be given the time and more then likely out the door come Xmas

Welcome to Chelsea Ben Chilwell
Leicester fan here in peace So it appears Ben will confirmed as your player in the coming days so thought I would drop in give an insight into how its been recieved over our end The lad splits opinion amongst our fan base, some think he could become the best LB in the league, others think hes severely over rated and the money we will get for him is excellent business for us, so heres my personal thought Like Maguire, hes a good player but at the minute nothing more, we knew the 80 mill we got for old slabhead was rediculious, you pay that fee for a world class defender, which Harry clearly isnt, and I get the same vibes with the Chilwell deal Hes good at getting forward and isnt afraid to bomb on, hes fairly quick and has a good engine in him, I cant recall a time really where hes looked shattered approaching 90 mins, ok in the tackle and positioning isnt too bad But for all of that there has been more times then I can remember for us where hes got in a good position attacking for us and has either passed the ball backwards or put in an abysmal, no hope cross into the box (which is crazy as his deliveries for england would make you think otherwise) Hes very much a confidence player, the 1st half of last season he was very good, we were winning games, he had his head up and was performing well, but the games that changed the tide were Liverpool and Man City over christmas, both teams targetted our left side and absolutely ripped him to peices (particularly Mahrez who made him look like an amateur, he couldnt get near him all game) after that he wasnt the same player for us, and ask any Leicester fan they will tell you since Jan (aside from games he missed through injury) he was one of our poorer players, on the topic of his confidence, we played Millwall in the FA cup a few years back and he refused to take throw ins due to their fans giving him no end of abuse (although this was one of his first starts for us) Again you will get different opinions from all of our fans, for me hes a good professional, seems a cracking lad and does have plenty of years to become potentially a very good LB for you, but hes a player for us who I think we can easily replace (if rumours are true then it may be tagliafico which we will all be over the moon about) He leaves with all my best wishes, I do genuinelly hope it works out well for him
