Still think it could be used on a better player than him though. I agree with you on that one.
Fox92 Posted 13 January 2017 Posted 13 January 2017 6 minutes ago, BenTheFox said: The thing is, considering we're selling Schlupp for £12 million, we'd definitely have a better player in Gaston for a very similar price, considering 15 m euros equates to just over £13 million. We're not getting a better player or a worse player. I don't like the idea of spending on a player who isn't going to improve the side.

Bob Weasel Fox Posted 13 January 2017 Posted 13 January 2017 42 minutes ago, BenTheFox said: Someone who create through the middle. We don't really have this unless Mahrez plays as a no.10 and he's away for a few weeks. ok I see but reaction seems a bit mixed so far, do you think he will improve our squad Ben?

Fair point, jury out for me but that said I will welcome whoever ends up coming in and hope that they improve Leicester City and get us up that table etc etc

ian_marshall Posted 13 January 2017 Posted 13 January 2017 Would take Bojan over Ramirez if he's available. He'd be a great fit for us in the hole and take some of the oppositions attention away from Mahrez.

Kitchandro Posted 13 January 2017 Posted 13 January 2017 He's a decent player but it doesn't exactly scream 'progress' to me. Why didn't he last at Southampton?

Sharpe's Fox Posted 13 January 2017 Posted 13 January 2017 He's just alright. Soton got rid because he's not good enough and boro arn't exactly free scoring are they? When he misses that chance the other week it shows that he's not consistent enough for what we want. It's not the case that "No one's slick as Gaston, No one's quick as Gaston, No one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston's!"

Saints got rid because he failed to settle there and was absolutely dreadful because of it. Went to boro after small stints away and has finally found a 'home' in England. Not a bad player but not someone I particularly want here!

Weird that he can't settle somewhere nice down south but finds a home in that shithole. Maybe he likes the smell of industrial chemical manufacturing in the air.
foxy boxing Posted 13 January 2017 Posted 13 January 2017 we don't need this type of player, we need quality defenders! he would't improve the side that much and if he was any good a top six side would want him!. there's a reason he's playing for Boro
TeslaFox Posted 13 January 2017 Posted 13 January 2017 Anyone else think he may just be okay for us? Maybe Soton and Boro dont have the best trainers, dont have enough quality to support him or just dont play to his strengths?

RoyFox Posted 13 January 2017 Posted 13 January 2017 It's a sh*te rumour, chillax guys. No decent source except this Italian rag via Sporting Witness has mentioned it. Probably wasting our breath.
artursteppe Posted 13 January 2017 Posted 13 January 2017 Our interest could be to allow Ulloa to go to Swansea now that we seem to be playing one lone striker.
katieakita Posted 13 January 2017 Posted 13 January 2017 Think it is BS but on a positive if our scouting team see something I trust them. Watched this guy twice this season and he seems to have a major issue with his footwear as he keeps falling over and should have collected more than 1 yellow up at their place for his antics which i think also included a nasty challenge.
