Top 3 managers for Leicester to consider if Rodgers leaves
By Akash Roy
Rúben Amorim – With a 73.24% win rate, Amorim is highly sought as an upcoming bold manager from the Portuguese top flight. Also, much like Gasperini, Amorim is a fan of the 3-4-3 formation. Considered a mastermind behind Sporting’s recent success, the young manager forces the wingbacks to intermingle with the attackers once on the attack. On defense, three at the back with midfielders rapidly dropping deep clogs up the central pitch and makes it difficult for the opposition to break their layered setup. It is rigid yet fluid. He also gives a lot of young talent precious minutes to develop under him organically.

Lucien Favre – Again another manager who is famous for his attacking mindset. A tactically sound manager whose defense needs a crafty lockpicker to break in. In his dynamic and attacking-minded football, the tempo alternates whenever a change of possession takes place. This attractive style of play has brought results in every club he has managed. Yet, Favre remains out of work following his dismissal as Borussia Dortmund’s manager. The Swiss man has a reputation for predicting well how opposing teams, coaches, or players tend to react in certain situations. To play this style, Favre pays attention to details and techniques, especially one-to-one.
