Will be on loan for the last 2 years of his deal

Ex England international, on a free, knows the gaffer, 36, has played plenty of mins in recent seasons, we are in league 1 and probably isn’t going to be first choice. personally I don’t understand the issue, he’s always looked like a decent keeper

And a player in Chaplin who shared the golden boot with Jonson Clarke-Harris that season, best case scenario is he scores 15 in league 1, we get promoted and we are stuck with him in the reserves for the next 2 seasons

Depressing considering where we’ve been as a club, but we are where we are…. Disappointing last season on loan at Portsmouth, so the jury is out…. But low risk on a free if the deal is only 2 years

Would take an unprecedented improvement, last season showed for me he hasn’t got what it take for PL football

He’s done us dirty here, get rid asap…. Used to like him as well, but zero loyalty in football 👋🏻

Considering a tribunal was on the table, £10m is excellent work from the club…. Tribunals take years and rarely pay significant sums

I hate this ownership, so out of touch with the fanbase Worst possible appointment

I said to him, do you think we can get £5m, he said no chance! United looking to pay half that

I’d imagine only the players signed after the first relegation would have a league 1 wage reduction clause, hazard a guess Souttar and VK don’t

He was telling me that Top leaves running the club to Rudkin, and has his complete trust, he said he’s effectively clueless and doesn’t even pretend to know what he is doing, so leaves most matters to other people, his opinion and he’s been in football for over 30 years was that, rudkins position will become untenable even for Top, and if he doesn’t see that soon, we will enter administration as the result of the mismanagement. It’s an open secret in football that Rudkin isn’t fit for purpose

He’s currently earning £37,500 a week, which won’t drop in league 1, he didn’t know anything about other players, but he did say Rudkin was an unreasonable person to deal with, lots of players are extremely unhappy at being kept at the club against their wishes, and the said one of 2 things will happen in the coming seasons, either Rudkin goes or we enter administration- he said Top will be ultimately left with no choice.

This deal needs to be heavily incentivised, money for England appearance, cup wins, appearances etc etc - so this deal keeps on paying us if he reaches his potential

Was talking to one of his team last weekend, Leicester cannot afford to keep him, he doesn’t have a relegation clause in his contract and will join Sheffield United in the coming weeks for a fee in the region of £3m - we aren’t in a position to negotiate for more as they know under no circumstances can he stay at Leicester due to his wages

You’d take him as a back up for 1 season in league 1 , that’s about it
