Slimani

[Dan]

Looks at home in that Newcastle side already.

 

Slimani and Vardy was never going to work.

 My quality Sunday paper says that Rafa is after a new number 9 and is looking at Josh King ...   IF, that is correct, what’s that saying about Slim ?? ...

That J. King is Slim's back-up

That's surprising to hear, (i won't ask what paper you read :P) i thought he did really well when he came on last week.

I doubt Newcastle will pay the wages that we are paying Slim. If they want him we should do a swap for Shelvey or Lascalles or both 

[TrentFox]

I’d be delighted if we signed Josh King.

Sssshhhhhh don’t tell half the forum... (I suggested he might be better than most gave him credit for as soon as Bournemouth signed him)

Maybe ...   or maybe they rate King more highly ...   or maybe he would be cheaper ..  or maybe ..  Slim has a really bad attitude ?!? ...    ...   love to know.

 

(Or maybe the paper is talking bolox ! ...   ).

 

(And I'd love to have Shelvey ... )

Don't know if he is going to Newcastle, but he is almost certainly be gone from Leicester next season.

Thought it was a given that he was not 100% fit when he got here, record fee for us and a big price tag on his head, not sure if he will put a shirt on for us again but the difference between fully fit and 95% fit is something you will struggle to make up. Probably like a few needs a decent run in the side but sadly might not get the chance. Hopefully shows better form at Newcastle to at least get his value up if we move him on.

I really can't see Josh King being sold to Newcastle. I t would take good money to do that deal & Ashley isn't spending.

10 minutes in and hasn't scored yet. Bloody useless. Get rid.

[Jaspa]

Definitely a main striker. You cant really expect him to drop in, hold the ball up and link up play like a mix of a target man and no.10; he's a no.9

 

Good thing he's playing well though, get some cash back off him

[RumbleFox]

In the right set up I firmly believe he is a 20 goals a season striker.  I hope he does well.  X

[Dickov22]

He isn’t playing very well tonight.

Josh King is ok. Not amazing, just ok. He’s had one good season goal scoring wise but otherwise he’s not particularly prolific. Perfect for Bournemouth but certainly not going to take us to the next level. 

[Pete from the USA]

Class player but he can't play alongside Vardy; I can't remember ever seeing the two exchange a pass. Iheanacho is better, or maybe a new recruit this summer. Right player, wrong club. Sell. 

[Blanchflower78]

Poor touch, clumsy, mis timed jumps. Slim is back...

[Freeman's Wharfer]

He's bang average at everything other than heading a ball into the net from a cross. Hope he does well there if only to recoup as much of the money we wasted on him as possible.

[Fox92]

Just gave the ball away constantly. 

[Guest MattP]

That was him back at his worst tonight.

[Beechey]

It's incredible. They were playing it into his feet all game, they bring Gayle on and now they're swinging crosses in.

 

... just like another team we know of.
