Capturing Youri Tielemans full-time is naturally crucial, we’re not going to go into too much depth here because his value has been explained thoroughly by FoL. Trust us, he is more accurately described as invaluable to the top six cause. And it’ll cost more – if anyone is available – to try to recruit a similar midfielder. Monaco will hopefully take Adrien Silva as partial payment.

Playing it cool, exactly as Rodgers has done since his arrival, is this writer’s advice. Meaning that he should not alter the system or his style much at all. The Northern Irishman has in place a method as well as approach which is certified from total football in general; and a ‘Pep Guardiola’ influence.

There is a noticeably palpable expectation among supporters again – it is justified, as 2019/20 should see the Foxes become a ‘Big Six’ side if the recruitment/outgoings are exemplary. Buying, we are afraid, was comparable to a coin toss in recent Leicester off-season times. So it won’t be easy in any respect.

At least Arsenal and Manchester United are entering relative catastrophes; while Chelsea close in on the same. Adding increasing impetus to Rodgers’ outfit. Although it would be difficult to obtain longevity in this respect: those clubs’ income is so vast, though Leicester can cease the opportunity here. Wolverhampton Wanderers also want a say in proceedings!
