Are the foxes heading for melt down or building for success.
Leicester so far have a senior squad of 34 players has Sven-Goran Eriksson gone collecting mad for example he now has 6 senior goalkeepers 4 reserve keepers and 3 youth keepers. 13 goalkeepers is he nuts?.
and so far they have spent well over 12 million on players in the transfer window and a estimated wage bill for the season of 30 million.
Now while it must be good to be a foxes fan with all this money splashing around surely they must realize that if they don't get out of the championship everything is going to go bang.
I think Karl is correct in what he says regarding the state of football and the teams over stretching and spending money they just don't have.

Im looking forward to it, they are the reason we have a 10 point deduction for Admin due to the way they handled themselves previously.

I posted on another article with ref to sven and how he can't do jack without the most amount of dosh, and he's doing right now exactly what i said about a month ago, I think the ending was something along the lines of armoured dump truck and sweden , leaving lester gone gone gone forever. Answer to your question Sherlock, like i said previously its a huge risk and risking your clubs future will only before time go................

When I see this sort of madness from Leicester it makes me glad we have a Chairman and Manager that are not prepared to join in with this circus...... It'll end in tears! I'm sure Sven has a water-tight contract just in case. Must be nice to gamble with other peoples money.

"Are Leicester heading for melt down?"
In a word - (eventually, and in the very near future)......Yes.
There is no way any club can sustain the expenditure they have done, and keep so many players (espec. for one position) happy,,,
I foresee plenty discord amongst the ranks at the Crisp Farm.......

I not so sure they are heading for meltdown, having re branded the stadium they are just using the money to help them gain promotion, nothing like having a bit of ambition.

SSN reporting they have spent another £5 million on Readings Matt Mills. All or nothing for the Premier League by the looks. It will all end in tears if they dont get there this season.

You are in luck this season chapps and chappesses, I have moved back to be nearer my daughter and will be enjoying the pain in the crinckle cut streets of Linekerville. I shall keep you posted as they melt down and aim to give you the inside information on how Sven's platforms are coping with the highs and lows of King Power.

Don't be silly Whit, I took a month off and moved through various canal festivals (hic) (Little Venice, Rickmansworth, Boxmoor, Stoke Bruerne and Leicester) up the Grand Union to base. I am currently on the River Soar and working out of Loughborough.
I should be able to get to more games this year as the E midlands clubs are far cheaper than the London ones.
A few bad results and Svens gone, then it all goes Pete tong.

As I understand it, when they re branded the Walkers stadium to the King Power Stadium it was worth £30m to them and that is where the money for transfers has come from.
