frany104 Posted 8 November 2016 Share Posted 8 November 2016 10 minutes ago, Donut said: I said earlier in the forum, i woudnt be opposed to a move for Fabian Delph. Hes box to box, works hard, loves to get stuck in and has international experience. Has had injury issues but realistically not going to get much of game at Man City, and hes a player that could slot into the team immediately. Obviously Silva would have more quality, but I think he would be a smart signing. Delph is a great shout. He would improve our midfield without a doubt. Wages may be an issue though?

lcfcnsk Posted 8 November 2016 Share Posted 8 November 2016 Leicester will make £20m bid to beat Chelsea to Premier League star - reports LEICESTER will reportedly make a £20million bid for Burnley defender Michael Keane in January. By JAMES DICKENSON GETTY Burnley defender Michael Keane is wanted by Leicester and Chelsea Keane has impressed for Burnley and is in Gareth Southgate’s England squad for the upcoming games against Scotland and Spain.Leicester tried to sign Keane in the summer but the Clarets managed to hang on to their star man. But after helping Sean Dyche’s side up to ninth in the Premier League, Keane is the subject of renewed interest from the Foxes. GETTY Michael Keane celebrates scoring for Burnley against Watford Leicester will make a £20m bid for Burnley defender Michael Keane in January According to The Sun, Leicester are set to move for the 23-year-old in the next transfer window. Foxes boss Claudio Ranieri is apparently concerned he has no real cover for centre-backs Wes Morgan and Robert Huth. Keane has so far refused to sign a new deal at Turf Moor but is expected to be the subject of interest in January. GETTY Michael Keane listens to instructions from England boss Gareth Southgate Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is also an admirer of the former Manchester United man as he looks for defenders who would fit into his new 3-4-3 system at Stamford Bridge. Keane is a key player for Burnley though and manager Dyche will want to rebuff any offers again this time. Keane has played in all 11 of Burnley’s Premier League games so far this season, scoring once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuna Posted 8 November 2016 Share Posted 8 November 2016 Delph would be an excellent signing for us. I feel we need to shop domestically this time around, we haven't got the time for players to get to grips with the league and adapt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wardyfox86 Posted 8 November 2016 Share Posted 8 November 2016 Darmian Kirchhoff Sigurdsson Keane They'd probably cost the earth but all attainable I'd say, and would help change our system a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STUHILL Posted 8 November 2016 Share Posted 8 November 2016 Delph isn't a bad shout. Not going to get much game time at all at Man City, although I think he would be happy enough collecting his 150k a week wages or whatever crazy money he is on, from the bench there, than taking a paycut anywhere else. A loan deal until the summer could be possible though. He needs to be playing as he hasn't got that many years left. First choice should still be SIlva, but warming to this idea if at all possible. Schneiderlin would be an awesome signing but not sure we could do enough to persuade him to join here, especially with our recent form and position in the table. That's the issue we may face now, players we probably could have signed in the Summer with all our success, simply see us as a team that will not be playing in Europe next season, and could be fighting at the wrong end of the table again. Hopefully we are back up to about 8th in January, and looking a more attractive proposal again with performances and results similar to last season.

Ric Flair Posted 9 November 2016 Share Posted 9 November 2016 Delph would be class and especially in a 4-3-3 or wing backs where he can cover the left sided area of midfield when our wingers roam forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyFox Posted 9 November 2016 Share Posted 9 November 2016 Delph is a great shout, loan deal and pay a portion of his wages is the most likely way of getting him in Jan IMO. Keane is not going to happen. Dyche hates Leicester more than Danny Mills, they'd want £25m+ and a top 6 side will probably go in for him. Hope I'm wrong. Cafu only if Ulloa is shipped out, but I doubt they'd let Ulloa go as Slimani will be out for Afcon leaving us with no height up front. Silva I'd love, but, he'll be cup tied for CL and we're lot less attractive a proposition this time round. With Eduardo Macia on board we probably won't have a clue about targets until they actually make bids. Most likely go sniffing around Spain and Italy as that's where his scouting knowledge is.
