Appears they are after a centre back on a permanent deal and a winger on loan. I would imagine they are dependent on palace calling Edouard back for us to get a striker in on loan.

Where have these rumours that he’s walked come from? -
Obviously I know it’s funding dependent but I think the most important thing is trying to get it done at the same time with project reset and working together. Sends a clearer message and gets more media coverage making the point stronger.
-
Poor driver will feel high as a kite I massively appreciate people like yourself and project reset taking the initiative to make change happen. Im the least creative person going as well as being poor with my words so not the best person to come up with ideas! I think Chat GPT might become your best friend here!

I think most importantly knowing how delusional the club at the top are, if we aim it at certain players they’ll just take that down as managerial decisions rather than taking accountability. We need to be smart with our messages, make them clear and direct. Finances, managerial merry-go round, broken promises, transfer history etc. I think an open discussion with fans regarding what their problems are with Rudkin, calculating a common theme of around 5 messages and wording them smartly is the way forward.
-
The only thing I will say regarding the messages is I’m not a fan of messages directly aimed at players, for example “who gave De-Cordova Reid a 3 year contract” that’s not his fault he’s just signing the contract the idiot provided him. i know that’s the point of the message but I think it needs to be more direct at the person/people you are aiming it at and not drag players into it.

On the basis of a 4-2-3-1 GK - Stolarczyk, new goalkeeper RB - Coulibaly, Ricardo, JJ CB - Coady, Souttar, Nelson, new centre back LB - Thomas, New left back CDM - Skipp, Hamza, Wilf, New defensive midfielder RW - Fatawu (Would be sold if it wasn’t for the injury), McAteer, Monga CAM - Bilal (Not enough G/A for teams to put up a big fee for him), New attacking midfielder, Golding LW - Mavididi, De-Cordova Reid, Alves ST - Daka, New striker needed, Nathan Opoku (Emergency back up) Sold/Loaned/Released: • Hermansen £40m (£3.6m left on the books come summer) • Iversen (Contract expired) • Ward (Contract expired) • Faes £12m (£6m left on the books, come summer) • Vestegaard (Loan) • Okoli £15m (£10.5m left on the books come, come summer) • Kristensen £10m (£10m left on books come summer, so balances the books) • Soumare £15m (£3.4m left on the books come summer) • Winks £8m (£3.3m left on books come summer) • Ayew (Loan) • Vardy (Retired) Total raised £100m, once the books have been balanced will leave you a profit of £63.2m prior to any spending on potential signings. In: 6 signings. Following relegation last time around the club raised around £54.5m profit from transfer fee’s and still failed to comply with PSR. I would say around £65m (minimum) is required to be met from a net profit perspective, therefore expect the majority of signings to be loan signings. In short form, the club is fvcked if we go down and I hope it puts into perspective for those doubting how badly we have been run and how much of a missed opportunity to put things right this season has been. It also further states the importance of signing players now who will likely to stay at the club if we get relegated but may not be attainable with championship status, ensuring it falls under this years books not next years. Loan signings this season hinder us massively long term if we still get relegated regardless.

Huge point. I’ve stated elsewhere now isn’t the time to think about relationships. Change is needed, we are losing our football club at a rapid pace! People need to grow a backbone and do what’s right for our football club. Honestly getting sick and tired of this walking on egg shells approach, it’s pathetic.
-
In our defence with Bassey, we wanted to convert him into a centre back but he wanted a future as a left back, which never happened. So we actually identified the right thing with him.
-
Anyone going to give any explanation for this?

Genuinely don’t understand why the overlapping wingback has gone out of the window! It’s so effective and creates overloads you can’t deal with. It seems the only teams that still do it are Liverpool and Villa…. Working well for them! -
People forget we are a one club city too. In the UK it’s not really spoke about much but from an investors perspective it’s a very attractive proposition. Only 6 teams in the premier league are single club cities… Us, Newcastle, Bournemouth, Brighton, Wolverhampton and Southampton.
-
I mentioned it around a month or two ago, a lot of rumours regarding Top looking to sell came from someone who has a lot of business dealings with the club. Further context to this…. Relegation reduced the value on the club which put Top off even listening to offers.
-
Typical I’m on holiday for this game, but great idea. This thread should be pinned by the moderators and media should be informed in advance to get the word out (Mercury, radio Leicester etc). it’s time as a fan base we try to do everything in our power to make change happen and not sit back whilst watching the club get taken away from us.
-
Genuine question, what’s stopping a group like Union FS arranging a mass grouping prior to a game protesting for the board to be removed? Inform tv crews they’ll be all over it and get big media attention! I feel it’s time someone steps up and tries to make a difference. This isn’t a dig at Union FS far from it, I mention them more because they have the ability to get at least a few hundred together to protest. It might make no difference but it makes the situation as clear as it ever can be. It’s gone too far to build relationships now it’s time to send a message and make it clear.
-
Have we got 4 keepers registered in a 25 man squad?
-
I’ll be honest as much as I like Cannon, for a £10m upfront fee it seems to good of a deal to turn down based off our current financial situation and needs in the squad. After signing Coulibaly for £3m, including the £10m fee being recieved from Cannon and the original forecast of having £12-£14m to spend. That leaves you with around £19-£21m to spend. Leaves you around £10m for a couple of players and a few million for a loan player. Get a centre back, winger and a striker. As much as I like Cannon and his potential, the overall balance of the squad is more important to us in our current situation.
-
Willian would be the one I’m looking at depending on wage demands. You’ll be able to get him on a short term deal and he did well whilst at Fulham.

For anyone thinking that we was better or the same under Cooper listen to Kristensen between 0:45 - 1.10 on the differences coming directly from a player. https://www.lcfc.com/pages/en/media-video/we-need-to-stick-together-says-kristiansen
