Just because he's black does not mean he has pace. He seems to be around the same as Faes, not slow but not fast either.

Not according to the Italians, they seem to view him the same as fans of other premier league teams view Faes.

one of the worst defenders in serie A apparently. What are we thinking spending 11 million pounds.

Gabriel Sar, Florentino Luis etc? Theres loads of good midfielders around, the issue is whether we have the fund and spending 15 mil on a winger when that's our strongest position doesnt help.

15mil on a 24 yr old winger who doesnt have a great record in the Argentinian league seems strange to me. Surely it's smarter to use this money on a quality midfielder.

I was talking about Matt O'riley

Steve Cooper used to manage him for the England U17s but he didnt want to get called up for the u17 world cup and got injured anyway so I dont think there is a strong connection there.

Considering he was against Mbappe, griezmann and thuram I thought he did very well. Had quite a good tournament overall.

He's not at a level where he can be trusted to play a full season in midfield for Leeds in the championship, let alone play in midfield for Spurs. £40m from Spurs is very reckless spending, could easily go the route of Sessegnon and rarely ever start for them

He's too good to be a squad filler for a club like ours. Especially at 30m.

We used KDH as a deeper midfielder in the PL. Dewsbury showed this season that his runs into the box and finishing is better than Gallagher despite being in a lower league.

England caps mean very little to me, if you're arguing on that basis then Mason Mount is better than Jack Grealish, Maguire is better than Ledley King etc. Gallagher is clearly not International quality as shown by his performance against Slovenia. Personally I like Dewsbury Hall much more than Gallagher, he's smarter with his positioning and movement, better technically and is a better goalscorer.

Dewsbury Hall is a better player than Conor Gallagher. Some of our fans have a strange perception of Dewsbury Hall, he's a good Premier League footballer at worst and he might turn out to be a good European footballer at Chelsea as well.

Different types of players, Drinkwater had a better long pass on him and Dewsbury Hall is more of a dribbler/box crasher. I think Dewsbury Hall has a better mentality though and as long as Enzo is there I think he will do well for them.

He's a midfielder who played most of the season at right back because Leeds didnt have anyone else there. He had a few games for them in midfield including the QPR 4-0, personally I think he was better as a right back and he's not good enough currently to play midfield for a team looking to get promoted, let alone a team playing in the PL.

I dont see it for Gray. Yes he's only 18 but he's very limited as a midfielder currently, not very good at passing and doesnt understand how to control a game. He has a long way to go to get to Dewsbury Hall's level let alone a level above that.

If you dont rate Dewsbury Hall in the PL then why even consider O Hare who was significantly worse last season? A young striker who will improve? Maybe give him a season or two and he could turn into a Neil Maupay level striker, if he ever gets there, totally worth it. Carvalho maybe a decent choice. Still we would have significantly weakened ourselves with that window. If you cant see the difference in quality between Dewsbury Hall and players like Broja and O'Hare then I cant help you.

8 goals 1 assist in 2700 minutes as a striker. Similar output to Demarai Gray for us who was a winger. He's absolutely not good enough for the PL. Not a PL level player. Losing Dewsbury Hall and signing Broja, O Hare and Carvalho would be one of our worst ever transfer windows in our history. Far worse than the one we just had in the championship with Mavididi, Winks, Fatawu. Thankfully you are not our DoF, gives some perspective that it could be worse than Rudkin.

Has hardly played football in 4 years and is on £100k a week at Chelsea. Would be a Danny Ward-esque level of signing.

Broja for £25 mil? Bloke is a midtable championship striker at best. The only value a premier league team should be taking him on for is free just to sell him further down the pyramid. He's of no use in top flight football.

The issue with Casadei was that we were developing a player who wasn't ready to perform for us at that point in time. If he becomes our player permanently then instant impact isn't needed like when he was a loan player for us. I think with a season of regular game time he could become a 20 - 30 mil player for us. If Chelsea value him more than 7 mil I would just take the straight cash though.

That's fine but why sign Moder who will come with a lot of the same issues as Soumare with a bit more graft and worse ball carrying abilities? Personally i just dont see why we would want a midfielder who's limited at passing the ball.

It's likely that Soumare will stay this summer. Is it really worth it to risk PSR to play Moder and loan out Soumare for a bit more graft? I don't think so personally. As i said in my previous comment ideally neither of them will be wearing the Leicester shirt next season.

You just know the club are probably desperate to get Soumare off the books as well but are also looking to sign Moder who is a very similar profile of player. Ideally we sell Soumare and don't sign Moder, a decent option would be keep Soumare and not to sign Moder. You just know that Rudkin is probably going to go for the worst options and either sell Soumare and sign Moder or keep soumare and loan him out and sign Moder to replace him.

Not nonsense though is it, it's fairly simple that if you sign senior players as depth then that blocks youth players from breaking through.
