  1. Just remember where we were when King Power bought the club and the good times we've had since. Not that I'm defending some of the awful decision making since we won the league but King Power took a skint club for whom the Prem was a dream and gave us some of the best seasons our club has ever had.
  2. If things are tough at home he's probably not in the best of spirits.
  3. I think many forgot how good he is at this level. The Prem is a tough league. He'll be excellent in the Champ if we can keep hold of him.

    Fatawu

    Fatawu's a talent who's value will grow significantly over the next 12 months as long as he stays injury free. Selling now is a bad idea. I wouldn't even look at an offer under £50m for him.
  5. Considering how much better we look today with Winks coming on maybe we need to keep hold of him.
  6. They'll have cleared their mortgage if they have.
  7. Wout Faes impact sub.
  8. Daka has got to get that closer to the corner. Good save by the keeper but he should have been left with no chance.
  9. Looks like Marti put a rocket up them at halftime.
  10. We've got the fire power to put this game to bed but we've got to get a grip of the midfield. Wednesday are being allowed way to much room. Chalobah was Wednesday's best player by a distance, not looking so sharp without him.
  11. Winks was very good in our last Championship season. He's probably too good for the Championship but not good enough for the Premiership. Didn't seem like he wanted to be here towards the end of last season so him moving on makes sense. Be another big wage off the books and between £5-10m would be a decent return. Heading over to Italy or Spain where the game is slightly slower and less physical will suit him.
  12. Okoli is a recent CB signing, Coady two years ago the other "recent" CB signing and that wasn't terrible just pretty meh. Before that Souttar, again not terrible just didn't fit with the Maresca game plan.
  13. Could pull his hammy sprinting for a ball in training. Can't wrap a player in bubble wrap. Also a bit of a negotiation tactic, " you don't want him to play at the weekend, agree to our terms".
  14. That's way too logical for us. Would be an ideal move to secure a bright talent and then have gain experience in the Championship for a season before joining us to provide competition.
  15. It's fairly miserable for any goalkeeper playing in the side we had last season. Land it on a sixpence and you'd almost guarantee our player would somehow allow the opposition to get in first.
  16. £18m is lower than we wanted but hopefully there's clauses on the contract so if he moves on for a profit down the line we get a slice. Stol is fine for Championship level and with experience could become more than fine. Give him the season and see where we are. If we get promoted we can look at options. With all of Ndidi, Vardy, Coady and Ward off the books we must have saved well north of £10m in wages, depending on how accurate their rumoured salaries were probably more than £15m. Add in the sales so far and it's getting towards a tidy sum. Hopefully enough to appease the dodgy legislation. A high energy midfielder and a striker is all we really need to acquire this summer.
  17. Not sure Ndidi could do that role anymore anyway. Cifuentes might also look to adapt some current players, Maresca did somewhat reinvent Ndidi for instance.
  18. Do we need to replace Wilf if/when he goes? Soumare, Skipp, Winks, Choudhury and Braybrooke are still all under contract. We know Winks was very good at Championship level previously. We'd need to recruit again if we got promoted but at this level with severe limitations on what business we can do. We could probably make do and spend what funds we can spare on a striker.
  19. Winks looked like a Rolls Royce in the Championship and more Ford Fiesta in the Prem. Hopefully Skipp can look decent in the Championship and help us have a decent season. We can then flog him the summer after when his reputation has rebounded.

    Jeremy Monga

    Quite. Offer him a spot in the first team squad for next season. He shows up well it'll only increase his value to the big clubs interested. Worked well for Bellingham.
  21. Looks like a few of our guys couldn't stick with the pace of the game. Ayew was very good but was gassed when he went off. Kristiansen has been storming up and down the left side but for that second goal he had nothing to get back. Centre backs have been good at least, particularly Okoli. Taking Ndidi off was a bad move.
  22. Yeah what's Rachel done wrong. Not her fault Rudkin can't work with the recruitment team to identify and sign players within the given windows with the budget we have.
  23. Not for long they don't.
  24. Looks like he went off the boil this time last season and has missed a lot of this season with injury. Amorim's replacement has already been sacked. Doesn't sound like Sporting is a great place currently and Edwards has 18 months left on his contract. New manager might want to offload him to bring in somebody in a position of need.
  25. Rumoured to be of interest to Sheffield United as well
