Despite a fairly stable start this season, Cooper’s tenure at the King Power Stadium has been under analysis since day one, according to several reports.

While Leicester’s results under his leadership have been solid, the agreement among fans and analysts is that the team’s performances could be stronger.

The question remains: is the former Nottingham Forest boss truly on the brink? And if so, are these two high-profile candidates – Graham Potter and David Moyes – suitable to handle the unique demands of Leicester City?

In addition to managerial speculation, there’s been a recent flashpoint within the team. In Sunday’s 3-0 loss to Manchester United, Harry Winks displayed visible frustration with teammate Abdul Fatawu for a wasted counterattack opportunity, slamming his fist in response.

While the passion is appreciated, some may feel this expression was better suited for a private setting.City reportedly made advances toward Potter during the summer, but he initially declined.

Now, with the prospect of Cooper’s departure, Potter seems to be back in the mix. Another candidate said to be interested is David Moyes, the former Everton and Manchester United manager.
