Surely his time must now be up. After all the money they spent they are now 12th. Getting thrashed at home to a average Millwall team has got to be the last straw

The money men won't be happy & we know these sort of owners aren't well known for their patience.

I have never rated Sven. He is a lucky manager. Walks into top jobs and never achieve's anything. Must be one of the richest managers in the world for doing very little

Totally agree.

He did very well at Lazio and he did a good job with England, but he's done nothing since.

Yeah he did well at Lazio are spending more than any other team ever had at the time. Can't really agree with the England statement though, He did nothing more than the bare minimum expected of an England manager really.

What a lazy reply. He is currently proving that the money he has spent doesn't mould the team. Maybe he has lost it? Maybe he was lucky at Lazio. Who knows.

Deffinitely won't start the England debate again. It'll only start in Munich and end in a penalty shoot out.

Well i would think the payoff would be huge so would they go for sacking him?

Leicester's owners seem to be gambling bigtime on reaching Premier League this season. Who knows if they will be arsed/able to keep funding if they don't go up.

I'm sure Sven won't be too worried about the sack - another lucrative payoff awaits.

Sven only know players from top clubs, this was proved in his time with England. Could be a cracking player from a lower prem/ Champ club and he won't want to know, because it's not a 'name'. That's his major stumbling block, and unless he can sort it out he'll always be a second-rate manager.

To be fair to Millwall I think their season is picking up a bit, look at their last 3 results agains decent opposition; maybe they've reach some sort of turning point.???

The same Millwall that held our shit team to a draw last week

It may be a bare minimum expected, but to get 3 quarter finals in a row is a lot better than most managers, only Alf Ramsey beats him in England success

from a selfish point of view i've been looking forward to 'welcoming' both McLaren and Sven to Falmer - possibly won't get a chance to do either now.
