Shane Posted 2 August 2018 Share Posted 2 August 2018 If we do sign a big name replacement for Mahrez I’d still like us to sign Roberts too, maybe in January. Think he’s more talented than Diabate/Gray. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urban.spaceman Posted 2 August 2018 Share Posted 2 August 2018 28 minutes ago, AjcW said: I think it's clear we are trying to sign Bailey, good that it's quiet on this as well in typical LCFC fashion, we always tend to do our best transfers when there's ZERO threads on the actual player! But @themightyfin has said 'could well be' because it's a highly unlikely transfer and would be an insane coup! So the likelihood is we are also in for the others you have mentioned but they wouldn't equate to 'big names' like Bailey There were 3 or 4 youngish 'big name' or 'next big thing' names that were all supposedly on the move to 'bigger' clubs this summer imo. Malcom, Bailey, T Hazard and Ziyech. Malcom's already gone to Barca despite agreeing to a Roma move, while the other 3 are still at their clubs despite apparently wanting to move. It would be great to get any one of them (@Abrasive fox mentioned we might be in for Bailey last week). But the European clubs have an advantage because their window closes 3 weeks after ours. So we have one week to show our true ambitions to these players. I'd love it if we get one of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col city fan Posted 2 August 2018 Share Posted 2 August 2018 Don’t forget. I believe that the Mighty Fin was the poster who told us all categorically that Kante was not leaving Leicester. I’ll hold fire with any excitement for the meantime.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Smuts Posted 2 August 2018 Share Posted 2 August 2018 It won't happen obviously but the dream would be: IN: Alcacer Promes or Hazard Vida or Mina OUT: Slimani Ulloa Benny Mendy or James Kaputska (loan) Amartey (loan) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this happened, then could turn our season from mid-table to genuinely pushing 6th spot IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Posted 2 August 2018 Share Posted 2 August 2018 Nacer Chadli and Kieran Gibbs both still available at WBA I'd take both TBH, prefer Thorgen Hazard to Chadli but if we can't get him Chadli is talented Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyN83 Posted 2 August 2018 Share Posted 2 August 2018 I heard last week we are going all out for Bailey. He's well sort after but we are close to agreeing a deal with the club, just got to put a decent package together for the player to persuade him to come now instead of waiting for a "bigger" club next season. Maybe this is what @themightyfin is alluding too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mehrez Posted 2 August 2018 Share Posted 2 August 2018 (edited) I have no knowledge to back it up but I do believe we are going for a big name, we have the money to spend and everyone within the club will know it’s a big position to fill, I think other names are being thrown in as a smokescreen - the likes of Ghezzal and Ings etc #WelcomeBailey Edited 2 August 2018 by Mehrez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inmemoryofdoreen Posted 2 August 2018 Share Posted 2 August 2018 See that the bottlers are willing to listen to offers for Alderweireld , Dembele and Danny Rose, Anybody think Danny Rose would 1.

Pochettino signed a new contract on the basis that he'd get a proper budget to improve the team to win stuff. Now they're a week away from the deadline, they've signed absolutely no one and are willing to let people go. Praying for a 'new stadium curse' just to round it off.
