AmarteyAndChill Posted 18 May 2017 Posted 18 May 2017 4 minutes ago, Worthington said: Agreed, state of things though means that £20m is fast being regarded as 'average' sort of fee. I'd expect Cairney and Wimmer to cost £30m or so between them! Honestly think our 'record fee paid' will rise, perhaps twice, during the summer! I think Aaron Mooy or Adrien Silva would be more suitable for our system next to a ball winner (Ndidi)

Kampl would be a perfect fit in central midfield, has a real engine on him. Would definitely complement Drinkwater. Calhanoglu on the left and Bellarabi on the right wing... I'd prefer Calhanoglu out of the two, as he is more skillful and has more potential still, plus he's a born playmaker. Bellarabi is a bit too much about pace...
Gerard Posted 18 May 2017 Posted 18 May 2017 I wonder if a straight swap of Slimani for Silva is on the cards? I'd love to see us play what i call the Tottenham formation with two attacking full backs. A holding MF who can slot in at centre back with two CM's in front of them . One up front and two inside FW's/No 10's just behind. Vardy Sigurdsson Mahrez Silva Drinkwater Ndidi Chilwell CB CB RB Schmeichel

As Shakey said, absolutely no need for mass surgery. A few little tinkers here and there will do us fine

Cause I really want an upgrade to Shinji, even though I though love him, because I think we are too reliant on Vardy for goals.

I'd say he can replace Shinji as he has defensive instincts, so will help out defensively but also has quality going forward.

foxes21 Posted 18 May 2017 Posted 18 May 2017 Sam Clucas is third for distance covered in the PL. Gerrimin.

TheHitman™ Posted 18 May 2017 Posted 18 May 2017 I really can't believe Leverkusen is selling all of those guys. Kampl is very good technically, almost as good as Mahrez on the wing. Bellarabi is good too. Chicharito is probably one of the best goal poachers in the world and Calhanoglu is outstanding from set pieces. The only problem would be that they would be expensive. Kampl would cost 15m, Bellarabi would cost 15m as well. Chicharito would probably cost closer to 30m and Calhanoglu would cost 25.
Callabinho Posted 18 May 2017 Posted 18 May 2017 We need to step up into the next gear...we have pissed one pre season up the wall we can't do another....we need to make serious signings....proper quality. Proven quality.

Vindaloo FOX Posted 19 May 2017 Posted 19 May 2017 i know everyone is going on about how much we need central defenders and i agree but i also see a problem with depth in central midfield. ask yourself who can we really trust to do a job in CM other than Drinky and Ndidi ? King yes maybe on his day. James maybe but we have not seen him play for the first team for along time and yes he looked good for Barnsley but that's the Championship and we are not there anymore, also i worry with his injury record. Mendy the verdict is still out on him as this season he's been playing with a dodgy ankle, let's hope we see the best of him next season but also his dodgy ankle worries me. Amartey well the lad just does not look like a Prem player, i hope he proves me wrong. i really worry for us if we lose Drinky or Ndidi with a serious injury next season, i hope we improve in CM .

berniethebolt Posted 19 May 2017 Posted 19 May 2017 Zabaleta - worth a punt? Rightback is always been an area where I thought we were light. I personally think he has a good few miles left on his clock. I suspect his wages will be a massive barrier but I've always been impressed with him and his attitude over the years, a real professional. Free transfer like Fuchs. Looks like Galatasaray are rumored.

Narh Simpson is good enough at the moment, we need to buy someone young (max 24y's/o preferably) and when the time is right bring him in as the regular first team starter.
