Huge for Nelson to be given the nod over Coady. Really dominant first half, proper Enzo-Ball

Really interesting to see McAteer at CM. Think if he's to have a career at the club, it's as a utility midfielder and 8 could be his position. Maybe a big middle finger to the board about midfield depth too?

Great for Alves to get an hour, sounds like him and Briggs are the main talents in that side. If he can consistently get those kind of minutes for the U21s for a couple of weeks and build up to 90s, he's got to be earmarking QPR at home at start of March as a first team opportunity.

Ffs, had a mare

Bagsman Pat Bagsman Pat Bagsman Pat and his Black and White Cat Just as day is dawning Pat just won't stop scoring Daka's gonna score a goal past you

Just seen they signed Milion Manhoef last night! Good signing that! Fancy us to do them, 3-1. Yunus, Fatawu & JJ in for Praet, McAteer & Doyle

Stefano Sensi on a free

I don't believe the WP situation at all, this is all FFP. For what it's worth, whilst I'm sure Enzo will be annoyed, he still has more than enough at his disposal to win us the league, and was backed substantially in the summer.

This is a fair point, but spending clost to an entire month on a deal, to then bring the player over for a medical and at the last minute, realise we couldn't do the deal is just really poor planning. It's basic incompetence not to have a set parameter of a deal you can and can't adhere to, and if that wasn't made clear to Inter before bringing Sensi over then its just another shitshow to add to a long list. He will never be moved on mind, he's basically part of the ownership group, not an LCFC employee.

Baffling if we have gone this far through with the deal, only to shit ourselves over FFP. Surely you work that all out before you fly the guy over?

Historically has worn number 12 alot, which is currently free.

If someone charged you £2 for a much better chance of winning £100, you'd probably take it.

Feel like we are right to be taking our time on making sure the deal is right to be honest! (As long as we actually get it done). For what it's worth, I've seen a fair few Inter fans saying they usually take way too long to arrange exits of unwanted players so, for a change, I don't think we are playing this incorrectly

Hermansen Ricardo Faes Vestegaard Justin Winks Akgun. KDH Fatawu. Mavididi Daka

Do we have any proof that it's incompetence stopping this, rather than an inability to agree terms we are happy with? Or are we all overreacting a little on here?

Would 100% be a loan, but I wouldn't be against it, think he would impress and boost our chances of a sale in the summer far more than being 5th choice here! Big Ben Nelson has jumped him in the pecking order for me.

Reading more into this, seems to be that Inter want a mandatory future fee after the loan, and we want optional based on us getting promoted. Sensi will be on big wages for a championship side, so is prudent of us to insist on the option. Hope we have a simple loan for someone else in the background if this doesn't happen.

If we can't afford 500k for this deal, then what the hell is going on with our finances.

Nelson to play the Vesty role...I like it...could be his position

Get Nelson, Raikhy and Vards on, Ricky, KDH and Mavididi off

Yuuuunnuuusssssss!!! Top win, puts the pressure on 2nd to 4th at weekend.

Does anyone know if this is on the sky red button tonight?

That's a really good shout. Underrated player

The year is 2115. AI has taken over the world and a large % of humans are now slaves to a robot overlord. Deep inside the remains of the amazon jungle, Fabrizio Romano, shortly before taking his final breath, is sending a secret message to all other hidden and supposedly "free" humans. "Stefano Sensi to Leicester City is in its final stages, a £500k deal rising to £2.5m on clauses linked to promotion". It is the 60,000th time he's sent this message. Stefano Sensi has been dead for 25 years.

Excellent draw, a real test against a side that presses well. Will really show us where we are.
