Hmm. He's 31 now and hasn't played much in the last 2 years. There's also this ... I'd rather pay for someone younger and playing regularly.

I think puel will want someone younger who he can develope into a better player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Prussian Posted 30 March 2018 Share Posted 30 March 2018 21 hours ago, breadandcheese said: I'd still rather we tried to sign Adama Traore from Middlesbrough, rather than Verdi. Granted Traore will probably cost more, but he's having fantastic season in the Championship and is finally up to speed with the physicality of English football. He'd be my number one replacement for Mahrez, even if he cost a small fortune. Traoré is a bombscare of a player, he's all about speed and physicality and very one-dimensional. Whenever I've seen him play, he made me laugh. Runs at defenders, tries to get past, loses ball, tries again. At some point, he's successful, but the amount of times he fails make me laugh. He can't cross and can't really shoot, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Prussian Posted 30 March 2018 Share Posted 30 March 2018 And the Verdi link, sign him up! Bologna's player of the season, responsible for almost half of their league goals in Serie A. Either him or Sassuolo's Berardi. Or Federico Chiesa in a few years - impressed me no end when he came onto the pitch against England. You can see he's inherited his talent from his father.

leicesterseddon Posted 30 March 2018 Share Posted 30 March 2018 I think we'll probably spend a fair bit, mostly because we should bag a decent fee for Mahrez. However it's going to be a tough window - prices are out of control now and it's difficult to get value for money. On the plus side, I still think there's much more to come from Diabate and Silva, so they may effectively be like 'new' signings. Replacing Mahrez's goals/assists is obviously going to be the main priority - can we do it? In addition, I think we definitely need a new left back and a new right back. I also think we need to consider a long-term option for a CB who can play alongside Maguire. If the owners are really ambitious I'd say there's an argument for ditching Schmeichel - but I don't think it will happen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can't cross and can't really shoot, either. The Traore of last year, I'd say yes. But he has been transformed under Pulis (that's something I never thought I'd say about any player). He looks like he could be about to realise his talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
