Blue ROI Posted 13 April 2017 Share Posted 13 April 2017 Looking at some of the players people want poses a bit of a dilemma. Not that some of one are bad players but what worked well for us in the last few years has been a 50/50 split between homegrown players and foreigners. Bringing in too many foreigners might upset the balance. Some homegrown players are very overrated but you'd still think there is an odd British gem out there that we could nurture.

Talisca I like, former benfica player, I like him and I would love him here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redouane Posted 14 April 2017 Share Posted 14 April 2017 I think Kasper will go to United, since it's heavily thought that De Gea will be leaving to Madrid next season. After the past 2 seasons, i'm sure United would take a club legend's inform son anytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcfcnsk Posted 16 April 2017 Share Posted 16 April 2017 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-4414346/Stoke-captain-Ryan-Shawcross-eyeing-summer-transfer.html Stoke captain Ryan Shawcross eyeing summer transfer amid interest from Newcastle, Brighton and Leicester Stoke captain Ryan Shawcross is considering a move elsewhere this summer Newcastle, Brighton and Leicester are all interested in signing the defender He has one year left on his contract, with Stoke keen to offer him a new deal Ryan Shawcross is leaning towards a departure from Stoke City this summer despite the club wanting to offer him a new contract. Newcastle United are leading the chase for the 29-year-old centre-back who has just one year left on his current deal while Brighton and Leicester City have also shown interest. Shawcross has been a mainstay of Stoke's defence since he joined from Manchester United just over nine years ago yet the club has allowed his contract to run down. anager Mark Hughes has asked the club to offer new terms to Shawcross, saying: 'We’re looking to sit down and re-contract him, along with others. That would make sense for everybody. Talk of a move is pure speculation.' Yet the one-time England international, who has made more than 370 appearances for Stoke, is understood to be weighing up a new challenge. Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez is very keen to take him this summer while Brighton, Leicester City and Watford are also showing an interest.

st albans fox Posted 16 April 2017 Share Posted 16 April 2017 Shawcross has an ongoing back problem - interfered with his season last year so expect that's why stoke didn't try and sort his contract out then. He has been ok this season but to me, he appears to be playing within himself. He doesn't seem to be the player he was a couple seasons back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chico1958 Posted 16 April 2017 Share Posted 16 April 2017 Shawcross will go to Newcastle Keane will go to one of the bigger clubs....... City, Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool If Benny can get some consistency we may need to reassess But with Huth and Morgan getting older it's obvious we need cover at the very least Can't see Mendy, Slimani, Ulloa, Wague, Zeiler and Was sticking around......... Even Gray might want out When Newcastle get promoted expect interest in Vardy to rear it's head and Rihad's value has dropped on the back of this year's performances But I do hope Musa does it would be good to see if he can do it with all the turmoil behind him. As for In's................. It's probably down to the new guy or Shakespeare......... if he get's the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vardy turned down Arsenal in the summer. What's so special about Newcastle for him to relocate his family up north. Also, Newcastle would never pay him £100k p/w.

the fox Posted 16 April 2017 Share Posted 16 April 2017 Can't really see why the club can't go for boudebouz, only 27, has experience and he is always in the top playmakers list in Europe, dangerous on set-pieces and a very skilled player, plays as a CAM and can fill in for the RW role. And his stats are incredible (11 goals and 8 assists) and can't see him going for more than £15m. Averaging 3.5 key passes a game, I will take that. Here are some of his statshttps://www.whoscored.com/Players/67958/Show/Ryad-Boudebouz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted 16 April 2017 Share Posted 16 April 2017 We'll sell Mahrez for 40 million replace him with Gray. Ulloa and Schmeical will leave and we will sign no outfield players. There will be over a 1000 pages of transfer talk in FT 200 of which will be ITK based commentary and criticism. 2 of our U23 squad will get 1st team contracts and we'll buy a keeper nobody has ever heard of who's tall and 19 and from Hollands second tier. If we set the above as a benchmark then anything else is surely a bonus, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentFox Posted 16 April 2017 Share Posted 16 April 2017 I think our biggest challenge in the summer transfer window will be to still have Schmeichel for the following season. He would be a massive loss. Keepers of his quality will not easily be persuaded to come to Leicester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are definitely plenty of players in the lower leagues that can make the step up like Keane/Gibson. Hopefully its a market we don't overlook in the summer.

He has totally failed to adapt to the tactics being used against him. That will worry potential suitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
