Slimani as back up is absolutely fine but Leicester City don't pay £30m for back up players. Three Leicester managers and a lack of suitors for Slimani disagree with you. Absolutely spot on comment. One manager maybe, two managers perhaps, three ? Nah he's not good enough.

In the end he stayed and the replacements weren't needed. Ironically Vardy might go now and we might need the very strikers we're getting rid of! .....this!!!!!! Very unlucky for Slimani, if Vardy had gone to Arsenal, Slimani's career would have been very different. I always thought he played well when he had the confidence, having scored a goal. The problem was in the next game his confidence level went back to zero and needed a goal to show what he had to offer. Totally different player when playing with confidence, totally chalk and cheese.
UpTheLeagueFox Posted 22 May 2018 Posted 22 May 2018 Ranieri wanted to push the boat out on Slimani and we ended up paying about double what he was probably worth. Love Claudio but blimey he didn't half tarnish his legacy in that second season with this and many other things. 2 2

I'll give you that he might look fast (it's the amount of effort he seems to puts into it) but I reckon he's more akin to a lumbering heffalump. It's almost comical to watch him run. I'll wait for someone to produce some stats... he's no doubt the 23rd fastest Algerian striker (called Islam) in the Premier League.... on a Thursday.
wardyfox86 Posted 22 May 2018 Posted 22 May 2018 I think it's funny all these people worried about the "won't play under Puel" brigade, thinking that they dislike his methods. They're right, they won't play under Puel, and I can guarantee that was the managers choice, not theirs.

Nope he is fast. He runs funny that is true but dude is fast. Just re-watch the games or something, you sound like you never saw him play.
Guest Chocolate Teapot Posted 22 May 2018 Posted 22 May 2018 Normally I'd use this as an excuse to hammer Puel. However. Slimani is a total waste of space and has been since day one. Bin.

SheppyFox Posted 22 May 2018 Posted 22 May 2018 Puel is king and the king says you shalt not play. **** off slim.

Legend_in_blue Posted 22 May 2018 Posted 22 May 2018 In terms of value for money, I don't think anyone's come in worse on that front, including Akinbiyi.
Jazzy_Jeff Posted 22 May 2018 Posted 22 May 2018 Whether it is slimani, ulloa or someone else we need a plan B. No point in having quality delivery from wide if there’s no-one in the box to hit

lgfualol Posted 22 May 2018 Posted 22 May 2018 I love Slim Jim but he needs to move. However if this means Ulloa comes back onto the bench, offer Slim a new contract.
Guest Col city fan Posted 22 May 2018 Posted 22 May 2018 (edited) So it really has turned out that, despite crazy protestation, Slimani looks to be one of City’s worst ever signings, in terms of value for money. And now he doesn’t even want to stay and fight for his place. That summer after we won the league was a dreadful transfer window. I’m afraid, as a club, we fooked up good and proper when we were in such a strong position to develop a super squad. Bloody shame isn’t it. Edited 22 May 2018 by Col city fan

You have seen Slimani play? fast......maybe faster than your eyesight but that’s it! We overpaid and has a crap attitude as well as being disruptive.....ship him back to Portugal and hopefully you can rediscover your great talent in a 3rd rage league.....so much drivel from the Portuguese fans!!
Babylon Posted 22 May 2018 Posted 22 May 2018 And we go again about worst signing for value for money, considering his goals and assists contributed to higher league position, cups and progressing in the champions league. It's not even close, Musa, Mendy, Silva and Iheanacho have all so far produced little to repay their fees.
