Looks out of shape and disinterested now though. think there was a reason for that last season...being the manager Watford had and that he was in and out of the team and nothing knowing odd from sod, like most of the Watford team last season tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels much more like the Leicester we all came to love originally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotTheMarketLeader Posted 30 June 2017 Share Posted 30 June 2017 1 hour ago, SydenhamFox said: I think people might be being overly harsh. He's always been a proper grafter with a team ethic. Him and Vardy could be terrifying. He was our number 1 target last season. Let's not judge him too harshly on the back of one poor season. Who knows why he lost his motivation there, we don't know what has gone on behind the scenes. Looking at the overall picture I think he'd fit in well to our squad. But, is he better than a Slimani who's had a full pre-season with us? Not too sure about that. I see him as more of a Shinji replacement. I love Shinji, but I am sick to death of seeing him fall over. Deeney won't be doing that quite so much. Understood. However, is it good business to buy an unfit 29yo, whose last season has been poor? I know there have been a lot of comments about his weight. With a heavy set build as he has, that does concern me. Players in forward positions at the top level simply do not have the longevity with that sort of frame. At 29 it's a no from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerard Posted 30 June 2017 Share Posted 30 June 2017 I'm really not a fan of spending big money on players in their late 20's and have never made the higher echelons of the game. No resale value and in ten years plus in the game have never produced enough to be any more than mid table PL level. I'd much rather us gamble on buying up and coming players that are more hit and miss than players like Deeney who will help solidify mid table but no more.

Jon the Hat Posted 30 June 2017 Share Posted 30 June 2017 This one depends on his attitude and how much. I think he could add something, but if we are talking more than about £10M, then maybe not. He would have to convince Shakey he really really wants to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royston. Posted 30 June 2017 Share Posted 30 June 2017 Past his best. I would only accept him for 10M, IF we sell Slimani. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeney is a fine team player and would fit nicely in the dressing room, that's important too. It would have to be a big dressing room mind.

dannythefox Posted 30 June 2017 Share Posted 30 June 2017 Getting musa out and deeney in would be good business to me. I rate deeney he just needs to get back in shape and someone like shakey to put his arm around him. He's got stail at Watford that all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surrifox Posted 30 June 2017 Share Posted 30 June 2017 This is gaining some traction on the news sites . I'd forgotten we bid £25 million last year (= about £40 million in new money ) our interest forced twatford to put Him on huge money which they probably regret and the transfer fee ship will have long since sailed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wymsey Posted 30 June 2017 Share Posted 30 June 2017 He'll probably be considered to come only if Slimani or Ulloa leave. Though, still, personally wouldn't guarantee him a starting berth if even he came for a sizeable fee. Too inconsistent to be considered as a game-changer worth pursuing.
