Overview
Reinforcement did not progress due to financial difficulties, and the guardian deity was also released
・Since the Rodgers system, Leicester has maintained the top of the second group that breaks into the Big 6, but last season was forced to struggle. There are various causes, but in addition to the deficit of the absolute commander Tielemans, the long-term withdrawal of Evans, the defense leader. In addition, new players such as Vestergaard and Bertrand failed to become a strong force across the board, and the lack of stability in the final line was the cause of the slowdown.
・The great success of Maddison, who led the attacking team, and the rise of Academy graduate Dewsbury-Hall are positive elements. However, due to extreme financial difficulties in the transfer market this summer, reinforcements have not progressed at all, and even the guardian god Schmeichel has been released for the reason of high salary.
・Fofana was also pulled out at the end of the transfer window, but it is unclear whether the new force can fill the void. Combined with the feeling of being in a rut in the 5th season of the Rodgers regime, it seems that this season will also be forced to face a difficult battle.

・The perfection of soccer is high, combining the possession style that builds up with short passes from the back line and the counterattack that steals the ball with organized pressing from the front line and accelerates at once to steal the goal.
・It is said that the management of practice is good, and if you notice it, the tactics are dropped.
・Last season was incomplete due to a series of injuries on the final line.
・I learned of the financial difficulties of the club after the off, and it was useless to persuade the players.
