Offer him a £1m bonus if we stay up - that'll cover the loss in taxes. It would be worth it if he helps keeps us up and may make him give it his all whilst here.

It's the 10% not done that worries me when completing deals involving Rudkin.

Welcome to Leicester err, hmm

I'm not sure the current team would gain promotion from the Championship if we were still there. Playing this bland type of football with no perceived plan and arguably a weaker squad is quite frightening with 5 days to go before our first game.

Can't we do a loan with obligation to buy. Don't think he'd count as one of our loans as he is only 18.

Looking like another day passes by - even if we do get players in tomorrow, it's probably very unlikely they'll feature on Monday.

Yes, I agree - but Vardy is the alpha bellend and he won't want Zaha usurping him.

Vardy will sort him and his ego out

And Sensi

Similar to the last 4, apart from one loan signing.

but unlikely to sign any!

Bloody hell that's optimistic, I was thinking more the January transfer window.

Is there any links to Doughty or is it just a personal wish? What sort of fee would it take for Luton to sell do you reckon?

No Ricardo or Buanonotte?

This the problem - another day will drift by and with Rudkin seemingly taking weeks to get 1 deal over the line, I've little faith in 3 or 4 signings before next Monday.

Think they might go for Abrahams

Even better then.

Left Back (Regallon maybe €10m) CAM (Buonanotte - Loan) Winger (Zaha or Carvalho - Loan) Midfielder - (Hamer, Kieta or Nanasi £16m) Striker (Adebayo £15m to £20m) Could do this for under £50m, that's £10m a year over 5 years

A straight Maddison replacement then

It is always better to have an option to buy, but the situation we are in, if he, along with a few other loans/purchases can help us to stay up, then our finances should be better next year, our appeal as a Premier League club better and therefore we can then purchase players of a higher calibre and be more attractive to potential signings.

I'm hoping (but with little conviction) that it's like the proverbial London bus. You wait a ages for one to arrive then 2 or 3 all come at once. However, I do worry that other clubs know our desperation and we pay inflated prices to get deals done or we can only attract our 3rd or 4th choice targets.

Do we need two strikers? I think another body in midfield is of greater urgency, so would replace Fofana with Nanasi.

Did we - I thought the total was €13m which included quite a comprehensive package of add ons? I was under the impression, the initial fee was about €6-8m

The panic for me is Cooper saying he wants 4 or 5 more in, yet it been over 3 weeks since we've got 1 in. Is Rudkin capable of securing multiple deals in days?
