Leicester owners have pulled plug on Brendan Rodgers - now players need to show b******s

I'm not quite sure what is going on at Leicester, but it looks suspiciously like the owners have pulled the plug on Brendan Rodgers.

And you also suspect that he’s feeling that. He’s not feeling the love at all. When he raised more than £70m in the summer transfer window, and got precious little of it to spend, he’s most definitely not going to feel the love.

From the outside, it seems pretty obvious there has been a big spending cut at the club, and you don’t have to scratch far below the surface to see why. They’ve been operating at the level of a top six club - with wage spending to match, but without the Champions League football that is a must to sustain such salaries.
