English Football 2015-16 - Leicester City won the league - Page 1259 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Cant rotate the squad give them a holiday seems sound enough reasoning.

Thing is though given how momentum is so important to Leicester, do you want to give the players time to actually dwell on being top of the League?

I predict a lot of nose bleeds on their holiday.

These mid-season bashes can also produce some excellent opportunities for high jinks in foreign hotels. For example, Peter Beagrie driving a motorbike through the glass door of his hotel because he couldn't wake the night porter (except it was the wrong hotel). Or this:

Me too. Although I'd rather have neither Danny Rose or Moreno

Several sources reporting that Simeone has agreed to be Chelsea manager.

I can think of another defensive-minded foreign manager that has won some trophies and worked at the highest level - plus he's out of work right now, so they wouldn't need to pay him off. Shall I call Roman and point him in the right direction?

Ughh not that I have anything against Simeone, but is worst possible choice.

Great to have a complete disconnect between squad and manager philosophy.

Wonder if he'll bring Torres with him?

the original narrative was that playing twice a week is better than once, so I assume this is about the worst possible thing you can do for momentum.

They just lost, so arguably their momentum is negative right now. So it might be good. Or not. It's all so confusing.

A warning of non-footballC would have been nice. Jesus christ not going to get that out of my mind for a while.

Holidays are always good.

They're out of the FA Cup so no fixture this weekend.

They get a full working week to prep for the game vs ****ty Norwich.

Good move by best manager in the world.

Frankly, given how unhappy the players are right now, they’d be better off bringing in Tim Sherwood between now and the end of the season: someone to soft soap the players, give them a bit of a cuddle, get them feeling good about themselves once again.

Could they pony up and get Pulis in too? Him and Timmy could be their good cop/bad cop, Timmy doing the salutes during goal celebrations, Pulis doing the naked head butts when a kick up the arse is required.

Sherwood gave spurs good momentum and he also discovered Kane, not sure why everyone considers him to be a joke
