GlobalVillan Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 He could be relegated twice in a year since leaving us. That's some going. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Good move for him. They've got the players to stay up. Annoyingly I'll be cheering them on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Brave move for him as having 2 relegations on his CV doesn’t look good. I’m guessing Shakespeare knows some of the Leicester players though so may be helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Afro Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 This is a great opportunity for Deano to start to build his reputation again. I think he will keep them up but it’s unlikely that he will get the job permanently. I live in Leicester and was enjoying watching them struggle but they will have my support now. They have the players to play a more direct game which is what Deano and Shakey will implement in the time they have to make a difference. It should be enough.

MaVilla Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) ironically, i think he could keep them up. Leicester are very much in the same position now as Villa (in our first year back), Leicester have their version of Grealish (Maddison), and some fairly decent players up top with some pace (Barnes, Daka etc), they also have Ndidi who was touted as the next big DM a couple of years ago. I can honestly see him keeping it tight defensively, then using players like Maddison, Barnes, Daka, Vardy, Ihaeanacho etc on the brake to scrape points in almost the same way he did with us in the last part of the season.

duke313 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Not sure it's the best move for him at the moment. Two relegations in two seasons is not a good look. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made In Aston Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 I'd have gone for benitez if it was out of Marsch, smith and him. I love what dean achieved with us, but he hasn't been successful before or after. I hope he keeps them up but I'm not sure he is good enough to do it. A second relegation means he will be applying for jobs in league 2. Big gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 I think he would have a lot more to lose than to gain by going there as an interim manager. Unless he wins loads of games, I can't see them keeping him on and if they go down, his top level managing career might be dead. Waiting til the summer and maybe going for the Southampton job would be a better fit. Leicester should give Benitez everything he wants really.

Guest av1 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 This would mean no longer wanting Leicester to be relegated. Not sure how I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
