Raising The Game

So the stories linking Souness with Wigan were made up apparently. The chairman, Dave Whelan, has said he has not spoken to Souness for three years and has never spoken to him about managing the club. Paul Jewell is now the favourite after indicating earlier in the week that he was ready to return to football.

Of course there will be lots of Foxes fans hoping Milan can do something to entice Jewell to Leicester but it does seem unlikely on the face of it. He would have to raise his game to some sort of tune.

The fans are certainly not happy with the way things are at the moment. Another uninspiring 1-1 draw against Preston last night.

What intrigues me is that The Foxes seem to be able to raise their game when they are playing a higher class opposition. For example this season they had a great win over Aston Villa in the league cup, followed by the great match against Chelsea last week where they were just pipped at the post.

Shame we weren't playing Liverpool last night. Imagine what we could have done against a team in 8 - 0 form!
