MC Prussian Posted 24 July 2018 Share Posted 24 July 2018 13 hours ago, Ric Flair said: Not sure the reasons for his release but he's a very gifted player. I'd love him here. He doesn't want to play in the Ukraine any longer. Lack of competition, lack of European football and the political instability following the Krim annexion have done their respective part.

Fosse93 Posted 25 July 2018 Share Posted 25 July 2018 Robbie Brady anyone? Always impressed me when I've seen him, got a great left foot and plays right wing. Played for Man Utd at youth level so will fit right in! Doesn't sound the most exciting but he'd be quality here I bet. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesta2014 Posted 25 July 2018 Share Posted 25 July 2018 Alfie Mawson probably already been mentioned. Could probably get for similar price we paid for Maguire last season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmayne7 Posted 25 July 2018 Share Posted 25 July 2018 On the Bernard wagon. Apparently his form really improved after a couple of disappointing years. Works pretty hard too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxinNotts Posted 25 July 2018 Share Posted 25 July 2018 (edited) Right. I’ve decided I’m happy enough to go into the season with what we’ve got! If we were just to sell Benalouane and Elder, put out to loan Kaputska, Knight and Thomas, and give Johnson a shot in the full squad, I think we could be set. This would of course mean holding on to all our senior players such as Musa and Slimani, but I feel that they only enhance the strength of our squad, and give us good options All this could obviously be reviewed at the Jan transfer window Edited 25 July 2018 by FoxinNotts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puel may be thinking playing Gray, Iheanacho and Maddison just behind him in a narrow three which gives all our talented young players good game time and the ability to kick on. We would still have Albrighton, Diabate and Okazaki so we could change things up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonnieTodger Posted 25 July 2018 Share Posted 25 July 2018 Surprisingly quiet across the board, given there's only 2 weeks until the window shuts. Only a few teams seem to have their squads in check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gw_leics772 Posted 25 July 2018 Share Posted 25 July 2018 (edited) Just read on sky sports transfer centre that West ham are prepared to listen to offers over 15m for Antonio, the ex forest lad. (An after thought in the kouyate to palace link) Not sure I know enough to say I want him and not saying he should be the marquee signing to replace mahrez but he seems to fit the Leicester mould of young and hungry. New manager, lots of ins and outs. Not sure that is enough to write him off and remember him bursting onto the scene when he first joined West ham. Any thoughts/knowledge gratefully received.

We wouldn't be a bad team (our defence in particular would look decent) but with the teams around us vastly improving their squads ( Everton looking like getting Richarlison, mina and Digne. Wolves making some good signings,Fulham getting Schurle and West ham adding quality) I can see our lack of creativity in the squad seeing us finishing around 15th if we are lucky.

That's the only club he was going to at that price Schurrle - Not convinced Seri - Agree, Christ knows why Fulham is his destination. Bailey - I don't know enough about him. We really can't be accused of doing no business though. We just did all/most of it early which, given the Silva debacle, is a good thing. If we don't do any more, it will probably be because Puel is happy with what he has even though many don't seem to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also spent £12m on Iborra the season before, we have Choudhury who we want to develop and James, King, Mendy and Amartey. We can't just keep stock piling CM's and if we really wanted a Seri type we shouldn't have spent the best part of £40m only 12 months before on players in that position. Schurrle and Moutinho have had loads of injuries and may well prove to be reputation buys. They haven't been bought on recent form. Bailey - That ship sailed long a go, we should have spotted him alongside Ndidi. I'm sure we did but our scouting team underestimated him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets see if Diabate and Gray can step up. None of the names we are being linked with excite me and some make the heart sink. No more expensive continental duds that we can't shift. No more incomings unless it's a player that is clearly better than what we have. Edited 25 July 2018 by murphy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
