also could get us a better fee if player isnt desperate to leave

I don’t think that just the issue, JV will be 32, and as we know funds, and salary will be limited. If it’s a case of that 60-70k can be used to sign a younger cb on a lower wage with potential to be sold at a profit at a later date then i’d opt for that option depending on the cost of that player, but if he ends up staying it’s because Enzo has faith in him and his role in the system.

yes well spotted couldnt be bothered opening adobe

Luxury in terms of wages, multiple 80k a week deals just isn't sustainable, its like starting again when we first went up but more amplified as we need to be looking to address the ongoing issues. The first 2 seasons back in the prem under the existing terms of FFP we would only be permitted to lose £87.5m for the 3 year cycle Very similar to Burnley (one year in the Champ ) who this season have an average wage of 23k and a reported max of 45k although they have smaller turnover when they are in the Prem it will still mean we will be looking to reduce to a 50 to 60k max wage We lost more in the last season in the prem in one year than will be permitted in the 3 current year cycle and our wage bill was 206m

Tough decisions lie ahead, when you potentially have to offload high earners and KDH to try and balance the books the squad is going to look pretty decimated by next year. Braybookes and Alves Squad members, is Victor worth at punt at left back. Justin and Ricardo? Luxury players past their best for a club that needs to trim the fat?

yeah but you allude to the fact people are nagging about belgium players and they are all much better after leaving, the reality is people "nag" about all players

you do realise its a Leicester forum, if the players are playing shit it gets spoken about pretty much like any underperforming player. You just happen to have picked the players that play for Belgium

Probably gets a bonus for us going up

Won’t see next seasons spending for 2 years anyway

Disappointingly no white trainers

I mean I’m not sure what people are expecting but he has the most goal contributions for a non forward player in the division. If he gets sold I’m sure he will go on to have a solid career, he only had 3 goals and 4 assists in his last 2 seasons in the top flight. He wasn’t a wonder kid coming through the ranks, so maybe he has overachieved for his early level of potential.

Did he pick boy cats with pink bowls 😅

2 good signings for palace on a free, well worth a punt

Notice the bloke says “not my pic” it probably is mate, and you just been down the newsagents at 43 to get 5 packets and some Hubba Bubba

New Director of Football role

Jamie Vardy’s Leicester fairy tale is nearing its end – the question is what is next? Foxes’ greatest signing seems sure to leave at the end of the season but is determined to carry on playing and will not be short of suitors John Percy 23 April 2024 • 8:00am As Leicester City close in on an immediate return to the Premier League, the uncomfortable question looms large: is this the end of the fairy tale for Jamie Vardy? He is the greatest signing in Leicester’s history, a £1 million bargain who has lifted the league title and an FA Cup, claimed a Golden Boot and smashed countless records during a glorious 12-year spell. Now 37, Vardy has remained the undisputed ‘Goat’ this season and delivered 15 goals to put Leicester in the driving seat for automatic promotion. Yet this could be the year when the magical story has to finish. Vardy’s contract expires at the end of the season and, with Leicester facing an uncertain future because of financial restrictions, there are doubts over whether there will be another chapter for their star forward. Leicester are currently under a transfer embargo from the Football League and facing sanctions next season for breaching the Premier League’s profitability and sustainability rules. With Leicester under pressure to raise money before June 30 to avoid further punishments next year, Vardy’s lucrative contract and his age means that ruthless decisions will have to be taken. Wilfred Ndidi, Kelechi Iheanacho, Marc Albrighton and Dennis Praet are in a similar position, and unlikely to remain at the club beyond the summer. Vardy’s situation is clearly a very sensitive one, and Leicester will be determined to handle it with extreme care. The league leaders face Southampton at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday night, and the prospect of this being Vardy’s penultimate appearance in front of the home fans is very real. Vardy has no plans to retire, and has cleverly adapted his game and training method to prolong what has been an outstanding career. A few years ago he had a cryotherapy chamber installed at his home to help aid recovery. He continues to do all the right things off the field and, in his mind, the end is nowhere near. Major League Soccer could be an attractive option for the former Fleetwood Town striker, who first rose to prominence on the gnarled terrains of non-league football. With his goals record this season still impressive, there could also be clubs in England’s top two divisions who consider him as a potential signing. Earlier this year, Vardy said: “Thirty-seven is just a number. You’re as young as you feel. “Football’s a demanding game, it has to be like that, and you just make sure you recover right and get ready for the next game. “I look after myself, keep myself fit, so I’ll keep going for as long as possible

I’m not sure the first results against a team holds any weight. See Millwall and Plymouth. Hopefully our home form does though

Covid?

Yeah that wouldn’t be as worrying if our form wasn’t 4 wins in 11

Huge games tomorrow, lose and the pressure really is on

Turnover is bad enough

If this wasn’t in the Jamie Vardy thread wouldn’t know it’s him, looks more like a rock star in front of a microphone

For a non goal scoring player it was.

Came across well in the interview, for a bloke that’s only been here since August and not really had a sniff of getting in the team. Seemed like it meant a lot to him.

As much as he has struggled, if you want your team to get promoted and the best for them. Booing a player is a moronic decision, he is already lacking in confidence.
