It is proving difficult for Leicester City supporters to be positive this season. It is hard for some Foxes fans to even watch the games, or motivate themselves to do so. I can attest to that fairly willingly. The problem isn't just losing on a more than frequent basis. Oh no. The issues are deeper: poor play, a regular seeming lack of motivation, under qualified players and staff. The list goes on, sadly. Not being able to score a goal for weeks upon weeks is totally unacceptable for any elite football team to be frank.
And one celebrity fan has admitted that it's all getting too much for him at King Power Stadium. In spite of LCFC matches often 'depressing' the person in question, he has stuck by the east Midlanders regardless of a pretty intolerable campaign on Filbert Way. However, the former England international has admitted that he's given up all hope of Premier League survival. Even though he joked about his beloved Leicester still having a mathematical chance of repelling the Championship as in 2014/15.
So who is this illustrious ex-Fox who is generally well-liked and certainly well-known by the King Power outfit's faithful and around the world? What did he say about the Foxes exactly? And are his views about the Leicestershire side accurate? On the other hand, is he misguided or purveying a false understanding of events? Let's see.
Look away now if you are a professional footballer at Leicester! The famous broadcaster has some words for you:
"Twelve defeats in their last 13 Premier League games for Leicester, it’s beyond depressing,” Lineker said on The Rest is Football podcast.“We can’t score a goal to save our lives. We can’t keep a clean sheet. It’s pretty, pretty grim.”"Gary Lineker
As you can read for yourself above, Lineker is not best pleased with performances and the entertainment on offer at LCFC. And rightly so! He continues:
"Asked if he was conceding, Lineker sarcastically replied: “Foxes never quit until it’s mathematically possible. Now I’m speaking like a manager.”He then added: “Of course I’m giving up. I’ve lost all hope. It’s a struggle.”"Lineker
