sdb Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 I think we need to ban the word 'replace' as it's utterly disrespectful to the players who've done unimaginable things this season. Schwarzer aside, anyone we buy (including, hopefully, a few gems) will have to earn their right to start for us through initial substitute appearances. Albrighton, Shinji and Simpson may be 3 of the less spectacular players but their work rate, discipline and attitude are all vital ingredients to any success we may have this season.

Col city fan Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 Still think we need that 2nd top striker. Vardy gets injured there are too few goals in this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CityFan 06 Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 Still think we need that 2nd top striker. Vardy gets injured there are too few goals in this team. Agree with this. We could do with another striker in general anyway for squad depth, but a striker who could net 10-15 goals per season would be ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayfox26 Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 The players that have played regularly will not be replaced, we will bring in players to fight with them for a place. Gk: Schmeichel New player (schwarzer to leave) Rb: Simpson New player (de laet to leave) Lb: Fuchs Chilwell Cb: Morgan Huth Amartey New player (was and Moore to leave) Wingers: Albrighton Gray Schlupp Mahrez (if he leaves a new player) (Dyer to return to Swansea) Cm: drinky Kante (new player if he leaves King James (maybe new player if we loan out or sell James) New player (inler to leave) Striker: vardy Shinji Ulloa New player (kram to leave) This is my opinion of what we should do. So we may need between 5 and 7 new top quality players dependant on whether kante/mahrez leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsintskaro Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 Okazaki,Albrighton and simpson thats what we are talking about,improvment.also kante and mahrez are gonna leave.at least 5-6 new players are needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monsell1976 Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 Replace these players? Do you actually watch us play?I watch us play every game, and as much as they are great this season, I totally understand where the poster is coming from.To compete at the next level, some of the names mentioned, will have to become squad players, and not first names on the team sheet. My one concern is, the recruiting must be right, no big time Charlie's, who ever comes in, must sign up to the current team mentality we have, would hate for the togetherness to be spoilt by mass or wrong recruitment.

Len Finsbury Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 I know someone mentioned that we should stop using the term 'replace' and I kind of agree when we're discussing those in the first team, although I do think we need to replace Ulloa. When he comes on for Okazaki, after he's ran himself flat, he looks out of his depth. His touch is poor sometimes and either he's not very mobile or he's not very reactive. There have been a few good scoring opportunities recently that he's let slip past him. I'm not saying he's a terrible player, just that he's not the type of player that seems to fit into this side. He's 30 in the summer, let him leave and get ourselves another out and out striker to not only push Vardy but to also give him a break now and again. I'd also buy another second striker as competition to Okazaki, someone used to playing a little deeper that will still work hard. We also need to add to the squad with a centre half as it doesn't seem that Moore is going to make the step up and another right back if De Leat goes permanently. That is unless CR sees Amertey as a RB, but I doubt it. I think he's Kante's replacement if I'm honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nnfox Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 Still think we need that 2nd top striker. Vardy gets injured there are too few goals in this team. There is a lad playing up front for Hoffenheim in Germany who looks decent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col city fan Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 Are any of the Villa squad worth having a look at? Individually surely some of them are better than Collectively?

Maybe Gueye at a massive push as a squad player but nothing else for me. Amavi will get a decent move when he's properly back from injury but he's a left back and we're safe for those. The rest are dire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on mate. Can't agree more that some of the current squad are probably going to find it harder next season, given the increased level of expectation AND playing all the Champs league football. However great they have been all season, I just can't see the likes of Ulloa and Shinji looking like scoring away in the Bernabeu or the Olimpico. This isn't knocking them for work rate and effort..just to say that we must compliment the squad with some real quality additions to be able to mount a challenge. Man Utd, City, Liverpool, Chelsea will surely all strengthen, probably big time and we have to ensure our own development continues as we become a 'big time' club. Which we now are. You are spot on with the mentality thing. Absolutely rule one is to get quality AND the right temperament. Not easy that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPH Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 Can i be honest here, he just sounds like a typical generic eastern european ending in "ic" Can, and will sign better. So based on his name, we can do better? Have Leicester fans learnt nothing? It may of been hidden from you as this sounds like the first time you've heard this... But Mahrez was an unknown. No one here had heard of Kante either Fuch a regular in your fantasy football team was he ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEnglandFox Posted 11 April 2016 Share Posted 11 April 2016 Would love niklas sule from hoffenheim. Similar mould to Wes and Huthy 6'5". 20 years old. Sign him up. Hoffenheim is supposed to have a lot of hot young prospects. The German press wants them to stay up as relegation would be detrimental to the development of the German national team's next generation of players. And to state the obvious. Walsh definitely knows about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
