your all in for an absolute shock when we line up with Simpson-Morgan-Maguire-Chilwell in the first league game next season.

 

That wouldn’t surprise me one bit!

I’m absolutely sure about Morgan that he needs to leave the club! 

I pray this happens as well as his reputation will only get tarnished if he plays.

Every game Morgan plays he is an absolutely donkey and he gets slagged off even more. he should bow out the club legend he is.

I wouldn’t mind if he would accept that he’s 4th or 5th choice but it seems if he’s here he has to start and as you say he’s ruining his status with us cause he’s really shit now without Huth to wipe his arse.

Pretty stoked with this signing and the window so far. We've made two solid signings to address the two biggest frailties in our team (RB and CB) for under £25mil. Both Pereira and Evans are, on paper, excellent signings and Evans for £3.5mil is a great bit of business.

Massive over reaction about his performances for me, before his injury he wasn't doing a lot particularly wrong, he made some mistakes when he came back. But he and Maguire were left without a ball winner in front of them leaving them exposed for quite a few games. He's always been iffy when asked to step out and cover that space in front of the back four. He was hardly to blame for games like Spurs either where everyone else was dropping huge clangers.

 

I don't want him starting, but he's absolutely fine to have around in the squad for next season.

[Pete from the USA]

Ok, I'm excited. Super signing.

 

WTF is up with Dragovic? Is he staying?

no problem with him being around the squad but its just unusual how he came straight back into the team last year when its was clear Dragovic was brilliant.

 

So i kind of hints that Morgan demanded his place back, so whats to say he can accept it this season?

Just watched his interview. Our media team are awful. Some of the questions they were asking were absolutely painful. A seasoned pro like Jonny Evans having to answer whether he's going to be watching Love Island. 

I just hope he answered yes!

[les-tah]

I also think Maguire will learn so much more from Evans like Morgan did from Huth.

 

Its shame Maguire never played with Huth.

[FerrisBueller]

Absolute top business. Signed a CB and a RB early on, few additions more to make but I'm already feeling a lot better going into next season. Up the city!

I met Adrian Chiles a few years ago and found him to be quite unpleasant. So I'm quite chuffed about this.

Chiles throwing his toys out of the pram and holding out for more wages on the one show was the 2nd worst decision in history after us signing Dennis Wise.

Comes across as a prize tit.

One of the club's top earners after Vardy and Mahrez?

Kind of you to worry about our outlay but we're one of the richest clubs in England now

I haven't seen much evidence of Puel favouring three centre halves apart from the odd occasion when we're losing.

 

I expect us to play Vardy up front, three creative players behind him who have goals and assists in their game with two holding midfielders and attacking width from the full backs.

We have 3 more signings to make then?

That's your opinion, which you are welcome to of course. I wouldn't class what I saw from Dragovic as brilliant at all, he was competent for sure. But I didn't think we looked that much better with him in the team, compared to how we did before Morgans injury.

 

Who says Morgan can't accept it? It's all guess work. As I've said times before, the manager could have been in the position of leaving out someone under contract, the team captain... for someone who for all we know refused to commit himself long term. If he knew we wouldn't be getting Dragovic, then the decisions he has to make are more than just ability on the pitch. It's easier to make that transition in the summer, with a new signing who is yours for the long term.

Solid signing, bargain price, one of those players who could do a job for any Premier League team.

 

Mentioned it back in January when we were linked with him then, one of my neighbours supports West Brom and he said he'd be absolutely gutted if he ended up leaving. 

 

One thing though, I'm not sure I see him as a regular starter, I'm still hoping we get Dragovic.

 

If we go three at the back next season though, Dragovic - Maguire - Evans would be a fantastic defence.

Great signing.

 

Experienced, not that old, great defender, gets the odd goal and all for a ridiculous price.

 

Which apparently we are being tight enough to pay in two installments of 1.75 million just because we can  

[Katy]

Actually. He has a look of my ex-boyfriend about him, good job I’ll just be looking at his feet when he’s playing.

Sick of hearing this.  Personally I think it shows a bit of character.  Christ who hasn't done some dumb things in their 20s.  It's easy to judge footballers but if it was a mate then you'd agree it was a but dumb but cut them some slack, move on and not judge them for years afterwards. I haven't heard he makes a habit of it so, all in all he will be a wiser, balanced man because of his experience.  Now is a time to celebrate.

For drink-driving? Nah, wouldn't cut my mates any slack if they did that, I'd be calling them a stupid ****.

How many times a day to you go on about the clean sheets with Dragovic and the how good he is, you say people are welcome to their opinion yet personally reply to everyone that offers a difference of opinion than yours.

The only question I have is did he sign this week or next week?
