Fox92 Posted 18 April 2018 Posted 18 April 2018 I'd certainly be happy with Evans and Maguire at the back.
Lovejoy Posted 18 April 2018 Posted 18 April 2018 Bit of a negative mindset, but if Maguire goes for £50-60m and we bring in Evans and Drag for a combined £20m, would that be so bad? 2

sacreblueits442 Posted 18 April 2018 Posted 18 April 2018 .....Evans will not come to Leicester! We have tried to get him in before with no success and I feel we are one of the last clubs he would look to sign for. Just like Sigurdsson we are not on his radar and irrespective of how much we bid, he will not be coming hear. Interestingly getting Smalling in from Manchester United might not be a bad shout. I think Mourinho is about to rip his team apart and he is a likely casualty. 1

Whilst you maybe correct on Jonny Evans mainly on the links to city and arsenal etc. Do you think Smalling wants to be part of swap with Harry? Doubt it

So we give him a four year contract and in two years he's lost his pace. Not sure I want him. Easy - just give him a two-year contract then, then take it from there and assess his situation season-by-season. We can't rely on an entirely young(ish) squad only, you need experienced, no-bullshit PL players and Evans fits that profile. I think he's also a very good defender and one of the best footballers in an otherwise disappointing West Bromwich side.

We had a £21m bid refused. I suspect one of the big clubs will pick him up for the £3m required but Evans is obviously in a good position with the wages and signing on fee as his club will be losing £20m from the transfer fee. Seems like the incentives are all wrong for him. Club gets relegated, he pockets a small fortune. 1

If we get a big fee for Maguire would love to see us also bring in Mawson and Drag permanent. This should be Wes Morgans last season at this level, I think he even hinted at it himself. With Mawson, Drag, Evans and Hughes we look really strong at Cb again. Chilwell I feel will have learnt a lot this season and will be a better player next. Bring in a Rb and it's not a bad back line The fee for mawson wouldn't be far off the fee for maguire. I don't see that happening.

gurru991 Posted 18 April 2018 Posted 18 April 2018 Evans would be a good fit at Leicester. I really don't want Smalling here.

SheppyFox Posted 18 April 2018 Posted 18 April 2018 I’d actually be ok with smalling & cash for harry too Dragovic, Smalling & Evans back 3?

It's all down to negotiations and what other aspects of the deal could make up for a two-year contract (better weekly wages, additional clauses, other extras). Which other team would be willing to give him a four-year contract?
lcfc sheff Posted 18 April 2018 Posted 18 April 2018 2 year contract 80k a week would be a good deal at 3m fee
st albans fox Posted 19 April 2018 Posted 19 April 2018 Guys .... he isn’t going to come here for a two year deal. It’s just fanciful. he might consider a Man City for two years but even that’s a stretch. He has one big contract left - he isn’t going to accept that being a two year one. 1

Of course not, at £3m he'll have offers coming out of his ears. My guess is he'll back his own ability and go to a big club. Even if it becomes Drinkwater-esque it's still not a bad decision as it's better to try and fail than die wondering. Evans only turned 30 in January so is still quite young for a centre half so he may decide to come here if regular first team football is something that's non negotiable for him. If he signed a four year contract he'll still likely be a valuable player for us at the end of it. Jonny Evans strength is his brain more than anything else. Edited 19 April 2018 by Gerard

Raw Dykes Posted 1 May 2018 Posted 1 May 2018 I think Evans is overrated. I'd rather we went for someone else, but he's obviously an upgrade on Wes. I'd be sorry to see Maguire leave, especially after just one season, but he will command a huge fee, no doubt. I guess Smalling would be a decent replacement if we could get him (doubt he'd want to come here). I think we're in for a huge summer. Massive overhaul of squad and probably management. Let's hope we get it right. A back four of: Chilwell/new LB, Evans, Smalling (preferrably Maguire), Pereira ...might be decent. I'm really unsure about Chilwell. I've not really been impressed with him so far, but I think he should be given time. He is very young, and occassionally does show potential. Fuchs was past it last season, so I don't think he'll do even as backup next season. I'd bring in a new starting LB and have Chilwell as a squad player.
ARM1968 Posted 2 May 2018 Posted 2 May 2018 I’d take him no trouble. Would be immense alongside Maguire.
Gerard Posted 2 May 2018 Posted 2 May 2018 9 hours ago, Wookie said: Ageing, a touch overrated and injury prone. Nah. He's 30 years old, still got a good four years in him for a centre back. Wes Morgan hadn't even played PL football at that age. Evans would be a great signing for me, an experienced calming influence at the back whose best asset is his brain.
