  1. Does he really not know if there's been an offer or not? If so, it tells me Rogers is not communicating with Rudkin / recruitment as he should be. Just ask Rudkin: "Have we had offers for Youri? At what point are we accepting he's staying and leaving on a free? That target we wanted is still available, can you try and offload him for £25m?" Just interview Rudkin next, forget Rogers he's as in the know as half the forum, probaby less.
  2. This will end up being embarrassing for us unless we sell now. We signed him for £40m and he can walk away for free next summer. We're not Manchester United, we can't afford that luxury. When we first got him in I imagined selling Youri for 60m plus, so this £25m or £0 is painful to see. When have we ever made such a loss on a player. We'll probably see Perez at £30m gone as well at the same time. This is a very worrying prospect, and I can't imagine there is a club outside the top 6 to waste this amount of money (Everton 40m on Siggy is the closest.) We have to buy young and cheap, to sell high. And we have a good record of it.
  3. I seriously doubt that
  4. And they finished 2nd the year before without him (and Sancho,) they had apparently strengthened their side but ultimately made it weaker while paying 500K + to a 37 year old mess. Nobody wants Ronaldo damaging the dressing room / management control and they don't want to pay 500+ on a 37 year old it's that simple. United being reliant on him to score goals has been a problem but they lost Greenwood, Sancho/Rashford out of form, they were awful at holding the ball, and the biggest difference is Ronaldo has restricted Bruno's output. If I was Ten Hag I'd want Ronaldo out ASAP. The only reason why he's actually wanted around is marketing/branding.
  5. True, but this is Leicester after all. You just know they're not fit.
  6. Then you shouldn't have them on the bench.
  7. Shameful glory supporters... Barwell FC will stop this from happening.
  8. True, but flat not house.
  9. Nowhere is safe from psychos. I've been to that area of Orlando too and you would'nt expect it. I've spent years in the surrounding areas of Newtown, CT (Where Sandy Hook is) and you would never ever image the attrocity that took place there.. and Boston. Even in the crime ridden neighbourhoods with high crime figures in the states that i've been to, you wouldn't expect what's reported in all honesty. I guess my point is that you can't live in fear, or fear for your family wherever you go because be it Chicago or Switzerland, you never quite know what's going to occur.
  10. Thought we were passed this; unfortunately it does happen. Doesn't stop the fact there's 300+ gun related incidents every day, countless deaths, murders, accidental shootings and eveything else happening which goes unseen, unspoken about. We want to bring up gun violence, terrorism and how messed up the world is only when something happens on a bigger more severe covered scale always. Doesn't stop the fact that this stuff happens almost every day and has been for a very long time. Sad.
  11. Think you're looking too much in to being drugged up Webbo, In regards to the Chicago shootings, these are mostly gang related. No end of 14 year olds being shot on street corners for no reason other than a dispute and this happens in one of the strictest areas for gun laws. It's definitely more of a criminal problem than a gun problem in the gang ridden neighbourhoods of Chicago, but nobody wants to talk about the severe number of black on black shootings in a crime ridden gun controlled hell hole. They're not shooting eachother because they're smoking weed or trying to pop someone whos holding to take it themselves, this is all some people know and will ever know and no amount of policing or gentrification would stop that. As for the more covered personal stories of people being killed accidentally or through some spurt of mental illness, again no matter how you control it things like it will keep popping up; best course of action is and has always been to control who gets their hands on it. Detroit is right however, the over policing of cannabis in America does not help. Little Chicago shooting stat website, http://heyjackass.com/
  12. Not so bad then considering 69 people were shot in Chicago a few days ago.
  13. Kante's face, incredible.
  14. If Kante and Leicester's pressing was an NFL teams defence, it would be this Panthers display.
  15. What theories!!!!
  16. Who? N'golo Wellens?
  17. Remember this is relatable to the extreme cases where a lunatic shoots up a school, or a mall, or a theater - and they are lunatics, a very slim percentage of people are mentally capable of commiting such atrocities. And the actual, factual statistics of mass shootings in America isn't actually overproportionate to what is expected from a country theie size and pop with permissive gun laws, sure there's been a steep rise, but based on population and deaths via mass shootings, you see the statistic which backs this up, Norway, Findland, Switzerland (all restrictrive and stricter gun laws than US) are higher than the US in terms of mass shooting fatalities per 1m pop. Most definitely in the case of mass shootings like this it's a health, culture, and psychotic problem. In terms of every day gun violence something really needs to be done.
  18. It's definitely driven by culture and mentality; acess to guns is a factor of course, but theres places where gun ownership is very high and crimes are very low in comparison; Switzerland, Finland, Sweden. Then there's the states in USA with very little gun crime and eased gun laws like the north east, Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire - do you explain these states as anomolys? Perhaps it isn't a coincidence that these areas, and the high gun ownership countries are not consistent gun crime locations.
  19. They do occur, but they would occur whether the gun laws country-wide were the same; goes back to the gun debate of; 'if you're going to do something like this, getting a gun is possible, easily acessable or not'. Pistols and murders are a bigger problem to me because they're obviously not covered in the same light as this. http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/14-People-Shot-in-15-Hours-in-Chicago-Following-Violent-Weekend-329949051.html
  20. There's no question that gun culture and gun crime is a huge problem in the United States; opposition is pretty srong and always will - these events often play in to the hands of the opposers, but statistically events like these are rare, and everyday gun murder is far more serious. The atrocities in Chicago are far worse for gun crime. Need to look at how acessabile pistols are, with a complete ban on automatics.
  21. You have to be a psycho ****ed up maniac to actually point a gun and shoot it at people like this, always sickening to read this stuff.
  22. Have to admit, after being pretty negative towards him in the past, he bossed the **** out of that game entirely with Wasil.
  23. I don't think I've seen more of a liability in such a short space of time. I'm no football expert, but he truly is not fit for Leicester City's 18 right now. His fouls are consistent, he's behind the pace and doesn't use his brain from what i've seen. Unnecessary tackles and pushes when someone who we once considered a potential liability Wasilewski, wouldn't be doing this, or that obviously. Ranieri has to act and put him in the U21s and get Wasil back in for cover, it's really not right.
  24. Martin Allen makes a good coach and manager, but he's quite clearly a lower league kind of guy - considering theres such a huge emphasis on scouting and a director of football / footballing operations these days at the best clubs. Perhaps Milan stepped in a little too much as an owner.
  25. I think the criticism is completely justified, espcially when the nature surrounding the transfer and reports of the player were already negative. The fact we look uncomfortable when Ben-eh comes on or starts, and Wasil is sitting out, just tells me he's not ready. Needs U21s football, and needs to work on his agression, some of the fouls he makes are absolutely rediculous.
