I did a week or so go and was told we do good business.
foxinsocks Posted 15 August 2017 Posted 15 August 2017 19 minutes ago, Redouane said: Thing is, Slim can play Shinji's role pretty well. And since Shinji is probably the most hardworking player in the team, he will need some rest where Slim can take over. But of course if he were to play the false 9 position it would mean less goals and a lot on here would claim he isn't good enough as the case with Shinji and even Benzema But he couldbe geat if he dort his weaknrsses out... see previous list
Buzzell Posted 15 August 2017 Posted 15 August 2017 I'd be gutted if we sold Slim. I feel he has so much more to offer.

Gerard Posted 15 August 2017 Posted 15 August 2017 I'd want at least £25m back. https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/4249923/watford-boss-marco-silva-lining-up-ambitious-swoop-for-leicester-striker-islam-slimani/

He won't get the playtime he deserves, for me the best thing for both club country and player is to sell him. But I don't think it will be for Watford, they already have many strikers, I think Everton is the best destination for him and the Algerian national team Edited to say what you REALLY THINK... 13 minutes ago, Babylon said: Your thoughts on Col? 7 minutes ago, Col city fan said: Are you being 'argumentative' again? It's a good job you appear to have a free pass with the mods. You two at it again? Col, why did you unblock him?! Kind of think your banter is like watching the Three Stooges or Laurel and Hardy though, I enjoy it. Back on topic, I think we keep Slim, he'll have a role to play and I can see him getting some playing time. Shinji is off to a stormer but doesn't last whole games, Vards fits him as a foil and I can't see Kelechi playing every week, much as I would love him to. I still think a 3 man attack with Slim, Vards and Kelechi could be very exciting and very dangerous. Maybe if we go to wing backs (crap, I'm sayin it now) it might work with Kelechi as a 10?
HankMarvin Posted 15 August 2017 Posted 15 August 2017 Leicester sell slim to Watford £20m then probably buy deeney for £30m

I took him off ignore due to my actually agreeing with him over James. 'I'll give him another chance' I thought. That ain't lasted long has it....
Babylon Posted 15 August 2017 Posted 15 August 2017 We sell him I want another striker to come in, because Leo needs to go as well. Easier just to keep him, we'll have enough on our plate replacing DD if he wants to go.

Devonfox1884 Posted 15 August 2017 Posted 15 August 2017 Don't sell, he's a great option to have. From a business perspective, an offer of £20m+ may be tempting considering his age and original fee, however.
vanity Posted 15 August 2017 Posted 15 August 2017 17 minutes ago, Ricey said: They think they can get him for around £16M. This season is as important as any in the club's history. We don't need 16 mill at the moment, we need to ensure we take a real shot at Europe and show our ambition in general so as to begin recruiting better. We may need Slimani for that, and even if we don't, we can move him in the January window at a better price, certainly. Slim was one of our top attacking players in the preseason. Sure, Shinji was excellent that first game, but his impact is usually a fair bit less than that. We have flirted with a 3-man forward line since we used it in the second Athletico game, and against inferior attacking Prem sides, some variation of that may be a path to stacking wins that would otherwise be losses or draws. We don't yet know how effective we will be attacking with Mahrez gone (assuming that happens), we shouldn't assume Vardy and Shinji and the 20-year old Nacho will be enough to let go of a proven striker, especially a threat with his head like Slim. Nacho came up in Nigeria as an attacking MF, and sure, he's likely going to stick at striker in a two forward formation, but I really want to see whether we can get all three on the field in a fashion that complements all of them.
Vindaloo FOX Posted 15 August 2017 Posted 15 August 2017 Vardy & Iheanacho will get us goals for sure this season after that i would say our 3rd best goal scoring striker would be Slim . i can't see many goals coming from Ulloa, Shinji or Musa . lets hope Vardy and Ineanacho stay fit this season if we sell Slim .

And for a player like Slimani that isn't good. Your on the wrong forum chap. This is a Leicester City forum and what counts is what's right for Leicester City. What's right for slim ain't our problem how he plays is.

Seriously, stop hyping up Iheanacho. Let's wait and see and what he can do. For all we know, he's going to flop. For now the second top scorer is Slim and until Ihenacho outscores Slim, he is still the 3rd or 4th choice. I do hope he is successful for the club, but for now he is unproven.
