He could definitely do a job at Leicester but I don't see him joining a club in a relegation battle. Might just as well stay where he is ..

Lots of good young managers have come through the Championship !! It's all about picking the right one ...

You have a window coming up !!! Three good acquisitions could turn it around !!!

I don't think it is pointless.. Leicester were rock bottom in 2014/ 15 for four-and-a-half months between late November and mid-April, but finished 14th in the Premier League, securing another top flight season. The club managed to put together a run of seven wins from their last nine fixtures to survive comfortably. It's not over until it's over. !! Who knows what a good manager could achieve ...

He knows how to put a team together & play to its strengths. He likes an offensive style but is flexible depending on the players available.

I thought Potter would have been a perfect fit for England but it was not to be !! Potter is a very good manager & I think he could save your season but it seems that he wants a higher profile position.

I get the feeling that Potter is not too interested in a relegation battle. He is set for life with the Chelsea money & seems to get lots of TV work to keep him current. Leicester were interested in him at one point but apparently "negotiations broke down"

I realize that managers have a plan on how they would like to play but most realize that initially survival is the goal before style. Get the first year in & get some Premier league money & start building a team to fit the desired style. To take a Championship team to the Premier & think that you can match up with the big boys immediately is just insanity. It seems like a waste to achieve promotion & just piss it away because of your principals.

Cooper was a terrible choice for Leicester & would be a terrible choice for Southampton. He doesn't have the tactical nous to change or influence games !!

We took a lot of criticism for acting so quickly but it definitely was the right decision. Cooper wasn't working for us & a change was needed. You guys could still turn your season around but it will need a managerial change in the very near future.

I've watched quite a few actually but I get your point. Cooper would not be much of an upgrade on Martin even though if I had to choose I would take Cooper over Martin

As a Leicester City supporter I would strongly recommend against Steve Cooper !!! He was one of the poorest managers I have ever watched.

Why would any freshly promoted team agree to that kind of contract, it's just ridiculous !!!

I went back and watched the interview again .... It's disgraceful !!! How do you face the players after spewing that shit.

100% correct !! The player does not have to leave the pitch if the injury he's receiving treatment for was caused by a bookable offence.

We have Leicester fans who want us to lose so that Cooper will be fired !!!

I find that statement offensive.. Are you trying to start an argument ?? 🤣

I get the feeling that that after Chelsea Potter has his sights set on the top half & isn't interested in a relegation battle. Playing in Stoke on a cold January night may not be his cup of tea.

The funny thing is that Leicester fans think that Cooper has to go if Southampton win.

Potter is looking for a high profile gig to keep him in the limelight. He wont want to tarnish his reputation by getting relegated. He turned down Leicester in the Summer but that was when a points deduction looked likely

I'm guessing you were being facetious when you said Puel. But for me Claude is a very solid Manager/Coach who knows how to tighten up a defence .. His player assessment is second to none & I always felt he would make a great DOF. Defence is how you beat relegation ... Not possession football I actually thought that Southampton pulled the trigger on him way too soon

Vestergaard hasn't started for Leicester so far this season due to a "minor knock" but I doubt he would make the team anyway with Wout Faes & Caleb Okoli being the chosen CB's for Steve Cooper this season.

I just get the feeling that Potter is holding out for something bigger. I can't see him joining a relegation contender.

I should qualify my comment by saying that I am 72 but I really don't understand why you would play without a striker when you don't need to. All this talk about overloading the mid-field is bull shit !!

He will be in great demand in the near future as relegation candidates start firing managers.
