It&#8217;s for the club to decide on what they do, and this is my opinion of how decisive you might need to be before the start of next season to make sure you hit the ground running.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Khun Top went on to say &#8220;necessary decisions&#8221; will be made to &#8220;rebuild, improve and restore the standards expected&#8221; at Leicester.
