Something on Twitter about meeting Leicester's coach in Paris All very confusing after we thought he was going to Brighton - wouldn't rule anything out
-
6/4 to join United but I've not read anything concrete to support this..Of course he is ambitious and this article could be taken as a warning shot that he might move on if things stagnate which is understandable.I would be very surprised if he pushed for a move this Summer and if he did I'm sure the club would resist as we have already sold Mahrez and it would give out all the wrong signals to sell another star player.If a new contract is negotiated would you really want a release clause given the current rate of transfer inflation?

Notts County - 21st July - Match Thread
Edingleyfox replied to StanSP's topic in Leicester City Forum
It was great to see Leo being so effective - still a hugely popular figure with the fans and very professional However Maddison looked really classy -seems to have time and vision and not at all bad at set pieces.Looks an excellent buy - linked well with Gray but with Vardy could make a lethal combination, -
Only in his mid 20's and did well for Huddersfield a year or two ago.I think he could be a good signing -whether he is a long term replacement for Kasper we don't know but competition is good.

I've heard nothing to suggest that Maguire is unhappy at the club.Appears to be genuine grounded professional who will take time to reflect and I cannot see him leaving this year. We might not be one of the big clubs but we are not far short.Within the next couple of years should have a 40,000 Stadium and what looks like the best training facilities in the country. So lets not speculate on his value he is not for sale.Lets build a team around him pay him the going rate and the future looks good
-
No doubt offers will come in but Harry seems settled and grounded and I don’t think he will go as long as the club continues to develop.He might go for a better contract and I’m sure the owners will agree to it.Priceless to the club no way would they let him go particularly with Mahrez on his way
-
Harry Maguire will be a big player for us.
Edingleyfox replied to Koke's topic in Leicester City Forum
Future England captain. Not for sale at any price -
Suspect this is old news find it hard to believe that we would make a change at this time although you can never be sure
-
Don't think for a minute the owners would sell Vardy at any price particularly if Mahrez goes.£20 million is a joke for a 20 goal a season international even at age 30.He is worth £100 million to us if he keeps us in the Premiership. We know Atletico like Vardy from the comments after the Champions League match but doubt there is anything new in this except for the possibility that Griezmann might be on his way.

Who should we sign (asset strip) from relegated clubs
Edingleyfox replied to On our way...'s topic in Transfer Talk
Rondon always plays well against us big striker works hard so would take him with Evans. Should still have some money left to replace Mahrez and get in full back in place. Would also have a look at players from teams who narrowly miss out on promotion maybe Ben Gibson etc.Thought Tom Lawrence looked good last night but he never got his chance at Leicester -
Silva and Choudhury were excellent tonight.Very promising combination and they both work extremely hard.Nice to see Fuchs back as well
-
Wonder if Puel thinks Silva is too lightweight against a powerful Palace side.All looks very defensive expect strikers will be isolated.Really miss Iborra and lack of Striker options.Not optimistic
-
Nearly £30 million unproven in Premier league sounds familiar No thanks
-
Yes at the right price.Could pick out a pass to Vardy. Form and confidence could vary but still a quality player.
-
Difficult one - a few changes need to be made but a few selections are a bit odd whilst we seem to stick with some players too long. Puel took a brave decision to try Simpson for Amartey but of course he got injured and it backfired. Diabate seems to have jumped the queue and is ahead of Okazaki and Iheanacho and whilst he is talented he is not a number 10 and has never scored in the premier league Fuchs seems to have been discarded and Dragovic has done very little wrong all season.Gray was in and now out again... may well be communication issue and frustration in the squad.
-
I do think under Puel there has been this drive to increase possession and I wonder if this leads to a fear of losing the ball and worry about taking risks.We saw that yesterday with all those sideways passes and very few attempts to get behind the opposition down the wings. The other problem we have is playing against big sides that seat deep and the approach to crosses and set pieces surely needs to change when your have Vardy and Diabate rather than Leo or Slim up front.Tactics is a problem and I am not sure Diabate is ready to start either although he has great potential.With the exception of Maguire and Chilwell we are not too comfortable bringing the ball out of defence quickly. It was all too easy for Newcastle yesterday. I think the manager needs a bit more time but if things really tail off this season or the team stop playing with any freedom he will surely come under pressure.
-
Surely it would be crazy to sell Vardy in the summer at any price.Currently the strikers working with him (with the exception of Okazaki) have barely got a premier league goal for Leicester between them.With Mahrez going as well where are the goals coming from?
-
I'm sure I read that his agent said there was nothing in the Liverpool rumour.I don't think he will go in any event but you can be sure there will be interest in him at some point over the summer.Not to mention Mahrez Vardy and Maguire in other words the backbone of the team.Would not put a price on Ndidi he is still on a long contract and is developing well with us.

Should Riyad Mahrez play for the club again?
Edingleyfox replied to Tuna's topic in Leicester City Forum
He is under contract and we still have a chance of a Europa league spot so yes. However we have to accept he is going in the summer so think we need to be selective with his starts and not rely on him too much -
He looked brilliant on MOTD but watching at the game he had quite a difficult start with the foul and losing possession until he popped up with that shot which should have led to a goal.I thought he should have been substituted but then he was moved upfront and he looked a different player and burst into life.Certainly a steal I don't think he has solved the issue of replacing Mahrez yet

Man City make £50million offer for Riyad Mahrez?
Edingleyfox replied to LCFCb0y's topic in Transfer Talk
Pleased owners have stood firm on this. At least the bidding is nearer the mark at around £60 million.Just hope he settles again and does not get distracted as his value could drop rather than climb. -
Surely we are not going to let Mahrez go at the last minute and then pay an inflated price for Townsend to get the deal over the line.Sounds like the Drinkwater/Silva deal again but this time even less confident it would be for the best. Think we should resist any last minute deals either way and review in the summer.

Man City make £50million offer for Riyad Mahrez?
Edingleyfox replied to LCFCb0y's topic in Transfer Talk
No way we would accept £50 million in today's market.No deal would not even get into a discussion.On the verge of another European tour for next year why should we be bullied into anything? -
Classy player , good vision and forward passes.Got caught a couple of times but I think once fully tuned to English game will be an excellent signing alongside Ndidi.
