  1. Loved Huth - great player and Saharan dry wit. What was his tweet after the Arsenal game? I recall when he signed permanently for us he tweeted something like 'sexy football comes to Leicester'!
  2. Never mind that, he needs to get it launched more!
  3. Who replaces Vesty is a really interesting decision. Coady has been really underwhelming so far in my view. I had thought previously that he was good on the ball but Vesty is several levels better in that respect, based on this season. People will say Coady hasn't played much (so hasn't been able to get into his groove) but neither has Nelson but he has looked so much better than Coady. If Enzo picks the team on merit, rather than on experience, I think he picks Nelson.
  4. Leeds and Southampton are playing Rotherham and Huddersfield AGAIN this weekend!!! Surely, someone in authority will notice this soon?!
  5. Faes worries me more than Vesty. Even when playing well, he always has a mistake in him.
  6. In the whole of last season champions Burnley created 97 big chances. We've already created 91 in just 30 games this season.
  7. How come Vesty was subbed at HT? Did he pick up an injury?
  8. Now got more points than Cov managed over a full season last year in finishing 5th - after 30 games!!
  9. Are the club now concerned about triggering the £7m transfer fee for Yunus after the debacle on Thursday?
  10. The grumblers in the KP must be salivating at Everton's keeper and defenders repeatedly smashing the ball 100 yards up the pitch to the big man up top
  11. We can definitely get a better defender for 70k per week but can we get a better quarter back, which is basically Vesty's role in the Enzo system?
  12. We won't find a CB as good as him on the ball for less than £50m. We could get fast, strong, aggressive CBs for much less but in this system a CB with ball skills is crucial. He's on a completely different level in that respect to Coady, who I used to think was good on the ball. I think we need to try to keep him and make sure we get pacy players around him. I'm really not sure about Faes though. He's just so unpredictable which is never a good trait for a CB.
  13. I kind of worry that we will end up having to buy Akgun because we have no choice but to play him a lot from now on this season, simply due to our lack of available CM options. That sounds bad but I'm just not sure that he will cut it in the PL and I wonder if we could do better for £7m. There are things I like about him but as a winger he looks too slow and as a CM too small. To be that small and a CM in the PL you've got to be seriously good eg Bernardo or David Silva levels.
  14. No, the unwritten rule of football says that Ipswich Town will equalise with a shot deflection on 93min
  15. And we sold players for £90m last summer as well as losing other high earners on frees. It's puzzling really.
  16. Our squad might be the best in most respects, but in my view we are an injury to KDH away from being in a bit of bother, assuming that Ndidi is out for 3 months. Our other options in the 8 position look really thin now - a disinterested, injury-prone Dennis Praet, a converted winger and a bunch of unproven youngsters.
  17. I can see it being like Sheff U's last summer. Sell our star players and sign a load of cheap players from abroad who are not up to the level required in the PL.
  18. It's obviously concerning that we seem to have so little money available for transfers. How are we ever going to compete in the PL if that is the case? The other big question is why do we never seem able to move on squad players for fees? Our failure to raise money except by flogging our top assets is really hurting us.
  19. Are we expecting only about 27k for this then?
  20. Will probably outsing us anyway!
  21. Yes but the stadium is tiny so it will still be a small allocation.
  22. We owe these. Sick of losing at their poxy lego stadium.
  23. When is a good time for a Cup run, though? People always say this kind of thing but are we effectively saying that unless we are in mid table we are never going to give the Cups a go?
  24. Birmingham with only 3 changes. Jeez.
  25. If Brum have gone strong I can't see this team having enough to beat them.
