Buce Posted 3 January 2018 Share Posted 3 January 2018 I'd like to keep him. We won't get our money back and Monday's game shows what he can offer the side, and it's different to what Vardy gives. Finally we might have a plan B. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smr Posted 3 January 2018 Share Posted 3 January 2018 its about time he got a proper run in the first team tbh, especially now his confidence should be high after his great performance against huddersfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Countryfox Posted 3 January 2018 Share Posted 3 January 2018 Sounds like he will be off at some point .. probably abroad if all the talk that is circulating is to be believed. It will all be down to the price I guess but as he doesn't seem to be in CP's long term plans we may be more flexible than with someone like Mahrez for example. He only got back into the team by necessity ... shame really as he had something to offer imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle10 Posted 3 January 2018 Share Posted 3 January 2018 A move to Besiktas would be a downgrade for him to be honest. Turkish League is way worse than the BPL and many BPL sides are after him, lets see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Countryfox Posted 3 January 2018 Share Posted 3 January 2018 Noticed on East Midlands Today last night they called him' Ishmael Slimani' .... they really are a bunch of useless t0ssers on that programme. Get the feeling they really want to talk about Florist and Direby but have to mention us cus we are actually faaar better than them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all have plenty of money to buy up front and we should either get as much money as we can or not sell him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 3 January 2018 Share Posted 3 January 2018 We either sell for 15 + million this window or his resale value will be even worse come the summer. We really overspent on this one sadly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this....however, I wouldn't be opposed to them having Musa, or Ulloa on 6 months loan and forced to buy at the end of the loan....

baldeagle Posted 4 January 2018 Share Posted 4 January 2018 He might not go anywhere he may want a move but unless we get a half decent offer we don’t necessarily have to sell . We didn’t sell a certain person in the summer who was trying to get a move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPH Posted 4 January 2018 Share Posted 4 January 2018 I actually think a loan would be good. resale value right now 15m? so we sell him now and we take a big loss. Give him a loan and he plays well then that could significantly increase. I dont have any doubt he would do well on loan- he just needs to play regularly - he proved last game after not playing for so long that he's got it so imagine how he will look in a side that plays him regularly... Let's face it, he's not going to push Vardy out of the side - no one is until his legs start to go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slimani is 30 in the summer, everyone knows what he can do and at his age his value just depreciates. If someone wants him make them pay, either by transfer fee or a huge loan fee. None of this trying to get him for half a season on the cheap. Edited 4 January 2018 by Gerard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WigstonWanderer Posted 4 January 2018 Share Posted 4 January 2018 From a purely accounting point of view I understand that players get depreciated over the life of the contract, so Slim is probably on our books for about 15m at present. Of all our B strikers, he’s the one I’d rather we keep. Can’t see any point in loaning him out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like we are just waiting to lose our top players... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 8 January 2018 Popular Post Share Posted 8 January 2018 Slimani has to stay until the summer at least. There's too many questions marks over Iheanacho right now and if Vardy's injury doesn't clear up then we need someone to lead the line properly. Slimani gets dogs abuse at times but it's quite simple, he gets involved in goals and assists. Fcuk Ulloa and Musa off and potentially let Kelechi go on loan but Slimani stays. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperMike Posted 8 January 2018 Share Posted 8 January 2018 Just keep Slimani and get rid of Musa and Iheanacho. Neither of them anywhere near good enough for our PL team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
