  21. Leicester squad still full of 'overpriced players'

    If a week in politics is a long time, a week in football can be an eternity.

    There was a general feeling of well-being at Leicester City at the start of the season despite all the troubles the club found itself in.

    Pre-season under Andy King had looked good with better performances on show, and the players remembering how to pass the ball. We also rediscovered that there were two halves to a football pitch, with the team under Ruud Van Nistelrooy hardly venturing over the halfway line.

    New boss Marti Cifuentes arrived with a welcome that even the second coming might not generate, and we went on to beat a top-six Italian side facing European competition this season.

    After starting out with an OK performance against a team in more trouble than ourselves, it's all kind of gone wrong. The four-, five- and six-nil predictions that were flying around against Sheffield Wednesday failed to materialise, and we had to come from behind to get the three points.

    A midweek Carabao Cup exit to League One Huddersfield followed, then a 2-1 loss at the weekend against Preston North End - a team that were everything we are not, including being a team rather than a group of individuals.

    I wonder how those fans that were predicting an easy season for us - even getting promotion with a points deduction - are feeling now?

    Reality stings a bit, doesn't it? It is, of course, early doors, but the squad is still full of overpriced, overpaid players who we are unlikely to shift, as basically they are not up to it.

    In Marti we trust, but it looks like a long hard season.
