Suggests we're at least moving in the right direction doesn't it? Nice period of promoting youth and making more sensible signings will see the good times return. Onwards and upwards and all that!

(Apart from Mads) None of our players are worth what we will inevitably be asking for them. We are dreamers. Most of them will be here next year, I'm sure of it.

Maybe - But unless he has a low release fee (which is possible to be fair), they won't pay what we'll probably want for him. I just can't see him leaving this Summer.

No other PL team would take Ndidi. He's been absolutely awful at this level for a long time now. He'll be playing in the Championship again next season, and he's pretty good down there which is a positive for us.

"Sweden striker Stefan Selakovic of Halmstad has stated his desire to come to Leicester but with a fee involved Bassett said: "We've got no money." Didn't know we were once in for this CM01/02 legend! What could've been...

Gareth Williams and Stephen Hughes in CM? Get them all back!

Is Soumare a forward thinking midfielder? He has 1 goal and 4 assists in his entire career! Hermansen is more likely to nick us a goal.

We haven't had many worse seasons in my lifetime to be honest...not just thinking about the PL. Those few years leading up to the League 1 relegation were worse, but this season is right up there with them.

£10m for Soumare would be some of the best business the club has ever done!

Yeah, he’s terrible. Luke Thomas can’t get a game for teams in the league below yet is probably better than him. Absolutely abysmal options at left back.

I've said it on here before, but staying with us and playing Championship football (provided he's given the opportunity!) would be amazing for his career. If he smashes it at 16 his stock will be unbelievably high. But if he's being offered 4/5 year deals on ~£40k/week he'd be stupid not to take it. Setup for life money regardless of how well things go on the pitch. Staying with us would be a gamble unless the money we're paying is at least close to what the big boys are offering.

Yeah, hopefully. We need the playing/management staff to at least care about the results - Regardless of the absolute clown show going on above!

Yeah - I do appreciate that. Agree the personnel is largely irrelevant at this point, but he should still be trying different things rather than just playing the same players due to some sort of stand-off with the board.

If he's picking players out of spite, I'd say Ruud is high up on our list of problems. I understand he's been dealt a shit hand and is right to be angry, but if he's actively hindering us - for whatever reason - He deserves massive criticism.

We would've sold him at that price if it was a straight deal. They obviously didn't fancy it being dependent on Sunderland getting promoted, which is unlikely. I'd argue a loan with possible £10m at the end would have been worth the gamble anyway, but that's me!

That squad would be top 6 in the Championship with a shit manager. Decent one would have us challenging for the automatics. People are worrying too much Full squad of good/very good Championship players so it would do very well. Obviously the vast majority aren’t PL standard unfortunately but the gap between the two leagues is huge at the moment.

I’m still bothered. ….annoying.

An out of form Harry Winks is still better than Soumare. …and Winks isn’t particularly good at this level anymore. Maybe striker is higher priority, but we are absolutely desperate for a quality box to box CM.

I wonder if we’ll play some of the promising youngsters if we’re relegated early? Would at least give us reason to carry on watching!

I’ve backed him on here so far… …but yeah, that was an abysmal first half display from him.

Is Coulibaly a competition winner? Where did we get him from?!

We’ve already been relegated with a CM pairing of Soumare and Ndidi. They are utter dogshit. So hard not to get angry watching this.

Did they? According to who!?

Massive part of the last relegation....about to be relegated with us for a second time....regularly injured...ran his contract down to try and force a move elsewhere. Yet he's 'too good for us' and 'deserves his big move'. Nah He's not good enough on the ball to warrant anyone paying £15m+. I do think his ball winning is back to pretty good level, but he's so one-dimensional, and just wouldn't fit into a team who have the sort of money we'd want available to spend...

Strongest first post I've ever seen on here. Welcome!
