Tielemans63 Posted 18 June 2017 Share Posted 18 June 2017 To be fair to Rudkin if he went straight in at the asking price then he'd get hammered on here for not negotiating. Surely going in just under the asking price is exactly what he should be doing? His job is to get the best deal for Leicester City not Manchester City. I don't particularly like the bloke but he can't win with some on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's good in the Air and decent on the ground but his best asset is his movement. He always seems to find space in the Box. I'd sign him and let Slim go. Giroud is even slower than Slimani, he does not suit our style of play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfcnsk Posted 19 June 2017 Share Posted 19 June 2017 http://owngoalnigeria.com/2017/06/19/leicester-to-increase-bid-for-iheanacho-as-city-adds-forward-to-pre-season-tour-squad/ Kelechi Iheanacho has been informed by manager Pep Guardiola that he will be part of the club pre season tour to the United State of America despite doubts over his future at the club. Iheanacho as exclusively reported by Owngoalnigeria.com has been told he will only be allowed to leave the club if a replacement is found by the club before the end of the ongoing summer transfer window. Leicester City who have now emerged as the front runners to sign the prolific 20 year old will slap in another bid for the forward before the end of this month, as they continue their search for a replacement for want-away star Riyad Mahrez. Their first bid of around 22 million pounds with add ons which will take the fee to 25 million pounds was turned down by Manchester City, as the club also need money from his sale to sign a replacement. City reportedly want around 25 million pounds plus add- ons which will potentially rise the fee to 30 million pounds aside the issue of buy back clause, which they are insisting on. Already the issue of the fee in the buy-back clause has stalled the interest from West Ham United, the first side to have slapped in a bid for the Nigerian striker.

I guess the clause would be we make a 5 mil profit or whatever, still would be shit if he's good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marutimon Posted 19 June 2017 Share Posted 19 June 2017 More skillful. Knows how to hit the ball - great technique. Lacks a good first touch, but knows when to pass, when to run, when to shoot, etc. As for passing he knows what pass to make, but doesn't always know how to make it. Else his assist ratio would be even higher. Very much a team player, but unlike most forwards seems to analyze the best option available, instead of going for goal as his first instinct. Terrible as a centre forward but I think he would flourish as a second striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beliall Posted 19 June 2017 Share Posted 19 June 2017 Doesn't a v Buy back clause mean if we put him on the market man city have the chance to match any offer? If not, just because they can buy him back doesn't mean he would have to sign. He might fit in and prefer playing 38 league games and Europa league with us rathyer than sitting on man city's expensive bench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
