desertfox2 Posted 14 March 2016 Posted 14 March 2016 Hardly pointless, Deeney makes Watford tick, he's strong, holds the ball up, quick, and gets a goal. He is also their captain, therefore a leader. Forget all this business about signing big names, he may cost £10m, but it would be good move for City as a proven Premier league striker and within our budget. He is without question better than Ulloa and would a different option as a foil for Vardy. Deeney works hard also Didn't we try and sign him when Watford were in the champ for around 10m? I think Watford will be looking for double that, which I can't see anyone paying.
artursteppe Posted 14 March 2016 Posted 14 March 2016 Yeah, watch this space. The only thing missing from Okazaki right now is goals and that will come as he's proven he can score at a high level. Not many players settle in their first season in a new country/league. His touch, link up play, workrate and ball recovery all way better than Deeney. Okazaki is a way, way better player than Deeney. I reckon he will be in double figures next season This!
NewEnglandFox Posted 14 March 2016 Posted 14 March 2016 I love how Shinji, who had more touches than anybody else in the move of the season, "ruined" it. Shinji looks for the ground over the shot....
treer Posted 14 March 2016 Posted 14 March 2016 if we are really serious about becoming a top 4 side for the forseeable future, we go for lukaku, if we want to stagnate we go for deeney
desertfox2 Posted 14 March 2016 Posted 14 March 2016 if we are really serious about becoming a top 4 side for the forseeable future, we go for lukaku, if we want to stagnate we go for deeney Love the optimism but think even if we do win the league we will struggle to a)get Everton to sell him b)convince him to join us.

I like the bloke a lot but his link up and touch are certainly no way near Deeney. Anyway both good players in their own right but just think Deeney would be a reasonable option.
CupidStunt Posted 14 March 2016 Posted 14 March 2016 Dijks Fuchs Kante Imagine Shinji trying to say that in an interview , he'd be arrested

Agree to disagree, some of Okazaki touches have been different class and I don't think we have seen even 60% of Okazaki at his best.

jayfox26 Posted 14 March 2016 Posted 14 March 2016 Hardly pointless, Deeney makes Watford tick, he's strong, holds the ball up, quick, and gets a goal. He is also their captain, therefore a leader.

He is without question better than Ulloa and would a different option as a foil for Vardy. Deeney works hard also So if Deeney is so good and so important to Watford, what makes you think they will sell him for £10m. £10m gets you a championship striker, so if Deeney is as good as you say then surely they would be wanting between £15 and £20m. And it is my opinion that I don't rate him, you can have your opinion that you do but I would be amazed and very under whelmed if we signed him in the summer. Would not be a step forward for a team competing in the champions league.
jayfox26 Posted 14 March 2016 Posted 14 March 2016 Deeney????????????????????????????????? Might be good enough for Forest, but not Leicester. He is an unfit, fat bastard. A plodder, My Granny was quicker and just as fat. He takes longer to turn than the QE2. He needs three point turns to face the other way. He is so slow, my Grandad could swim faster than he can run. Watford players have to hold the ball up for minutes while plods towards the box from the half way line, which he can only do a miximum of three times in a 90 minute match. He is dog shite and I do not want him at Leicester! Glad to see someone else agrees with me. Most people on here seem really keen on us signing Deeney. Would be such an under whelming signing for a team competing in the champions league and potentially the champions of England. Could you imagine Arsenal fans getting excited about signing Deeney
jayfox26 Posted 14 March 2016 Posted 14 March 2016 if we are really serious about becoming a top 4 side for the forseeable future, we go for lukaku, if we want to stagnate we go for deeney We would never get Lukaku. Can't see the owners splurging 40m plus on one player and I can't see Everton selling or him wanting to join us
foxes21 Posted 14 March 2016 Posted 14 March 2016 Leicester City eye transfer of giant £10m-rated Dutch defender Mitchell Dijks http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/leicester-city-eye-transfer-giant-7546672 Regards LB .. Chilwell looks great, but do we need to rush him into the first team next season? I mean, Fuchs will definitely leave when his contract ends, in 2 years time. (He wants to go MLS, he has his family there & his own academy).We could sign Dijks or some other LB and send Chilwell out on loan for a couple of seasons to gain more experience, ready to replace Fuchs?

We could sign Dijks or some other LB and send Chilwell out on loan for a couple of seasons to gain more experience, ready to replace Fuchs? I think Chilwell has the ability to learn quickly and be good enough to be first choice next season, will we be brave enough to put our faith in him? I hope so.
shen Posted 15 March 2016 Posted 15 March 2016 Agreed, I think Chilwell deserves an opportunity and we ought to decide on Moore as well. Fuchs can't be expected to play every game next season, and Schlupp must definitely be an emergency solution only at left back.
Bluearmyfox28 Posted 15 March 2016 Posted 15 March 2016 Would love Sissoko liked the look of him last night & imagine him in a middle 3 with Drinky, Kante & Sissoko!

MPH Posted 15 March 2016 Posted 15 March 2016 I think Chilwell has the ability to learn quickly and be good enough to be first choice next season, will we be brave enough to put our faith in him? I hope so. I wouldn't quite make him first choice but we don't need to be splashing 10m on another LB , He definitely needs to play more and i would have no qualms about him coming in for a 5 game stretch or something to cover an injury...
RobHawk Posted 15 March 2016 Posted 15 March 2016 Would love Sissoko liked the look of him last night & imagine him in a middle 3 with Drinky, Kante & Sissoko! Seriously? I thought sissoko was our MOTM!
RowlattsFox Posted 15 March 2016 Posted 15 March 2016 It's important we look for players who offer something different to the current style of play. We've seen in recent weeks that teams have had an approach to the nullify us and although we've found a way to win, it hasn't been pretty. We need to adapt our style next season so need a different style of player.
fox766 Posted 15 March 2016 Posted 15 March 2016 Does anyone know anything about this 17yr old we just signed from chelsea? just seen it on newsnow
