midland_red Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 I don't believe we should sell him yet - and especially not in this window to a possible relegation rival. I actually think he should get more game time as he always plays with spirit and has a record of summoning up goals when we really need them (I'll never forget the pen against West Ham). It might be a different story in the summer if we're safe by then..
sk1fox Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 Sorry No , he always gives 100% when he comes on, he helped us win the premier league last season , Who else can say that !!!
urban.spaceman Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 If he wants to leave, promise him he can go at the end of the season. We still need him.

Get him to Skegness beach! Good job he was not on Skeggy beach for the great escape. Had it not been for his goals then we would not even have been in the prem to win it.
ozleicester Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 I love the "he cost a fvcking fortune" chant...but its just not right, he was a bargain at $10 million. No, keep him, to valuable as a plan B

Fully agree, even if it is on a free as a thank you for the miracle escape and champions season, where he was at times crucial. I doubt he wants to be warming the bench at his age but I'd try to hold onto him until the end of the season at least.
Gazza M Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Can't afford to in this window. A tale throughout the league for most clubs, that's why buying in Jan is so difficult at a decent price.
Guest CityFan 06 Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 He always tends to impress when he comes on, off the bench in games. I'm not overly keen on us selling him but given our current forward options I can see why he would want to.
shawy2510 Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 I would keep him, he wins headers, holds the ball up well & scores the occasional vital goals.
BigWesMorgan Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 If he wants to leave then that's understandable. But we shouldn't sell him
FoxyPalace.com Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Yes if we can get somebody in of a better quality first. He may be a work horse but he lacks technique and quality, same with King. We need to improve on what we have already!

Tuna Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Had no service today but should have buried that header.
AyewJoking Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 dont sell. until our other strikers find some consistent good form we'll rely on him.
STUHILL Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Always useful to bring on for last 20 minutes of a game, especially if we are winning and need him to hold the ball up, which he does better than anyone else in our team. The amount of headers he won today, was incredible. Of course, he was always far too deep to do anything with them, but you certainly can't knock his effort. I still think if a 12+million offer comes in and we have a replacement striker lined up, then no big deal, but I wouldn't let him go otherwise. He will never be our main striker and start every game, as he is just too limited technically, but certainly a useful player to have in the squad.
lcfcben76 Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Thought he did well with absolutely dreadful service
Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 He's fine as 4/5th choice squad striker. Cameos and rare starts. But he is very limited and offers nothing creative in open play. He is only dangerous in the box.
Guest CityFan 06 Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Comes back to service and that goes for our attackers too, but Ulloa did quite well today.

I just don't think he's good enough for the premier league.

I just don't think he's good enough for the premier league. I don't get that. He popped up at a really important time last year where Vardy was suspended & without his goals we wouldn't have stayed up last year and arguably without his influence last year it would've been a lot closer than it was at the end of the season
The Horse's Mouth Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 In the summer, we need him atm. Especially now with Slimani off to AFCON
Edingleyfox Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Not going to judge on today with 80 minutes with no service from wingers.He held the ball up and put in some great tackles.He is useful against big physical sides and can change games when he comes on.His finishing might improve with more starts he certainly did well when playing regularly 2 years ago.Overall I would see how he gets on during AFCON and decide at the end of the season.Would not cash in over the next month particularly to another premier league side struggling at the moment.
Chico1958 Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Algeria performance in the AFCon. If their out by the group stage let him go if he wants to Schlupp dropped so he's still here for the month anyway
