Got to admit that had crossed my mind. Their two supposed top goalkeepers were having a mare and he still wasn't given a run out so had bad could he be? Unless of course Jukupovic wants guaranteed 1st team football elsewhere and is on the move? Would have thought a move for Butland made sense, unless they already have and been rebuffed of course.
Fox 4 Life Posted 19 July 2018 Posted 19 July 2018 If the Puel stuff is true then **** him off to Chelsea. Can't have players thinking they are bigger than the club, kasper was rumoured to be a big part of the Ranieri out brigade, need to move on from those egos unfortunately

There's no smoke without fire and under Ranieri , Shakespeare and Puel there have been supposed incidents involving player power etc. If Schmeichel is one of them then bye bye mate, there can only room for one manager. 2
Gerard Posted 19 July 2018 Posted 19 July 2018 I rate Kasper as one of the top 6-8 GK's in the league but I'd still sell for a good offer for a player who will be 32 later this year. However if we're going to get a good price for him then surely Butland represents better value at £20m+ than ward at £12m? Butland would be a perfect storm for us as he probably wanted a big six club move but now finds himself stranded at Stoke with the transfer deadline a few weeks away and no sign of a move. He's the same age as Ward and won't want to be spending a season in the Championship. Just look at Ben Gibson who spent a year at Middlesbrough last season, he was ahead of Maguire in the England set up and just faded into relative obscurity. It's a bad career move and he'll be desperate to get out and we'll be quite appealing to him at this stage, it was only a couple of months a go since he was ahead of Pickford in the England stakes and that won't change if he finds himself still at Stoke this season. 1

Yep good point. Unfortunately we have a manager that divides us and I personally am not a fan of his in the slightest. Schemeichel has been outstanding for us over the years. Ward is not an adequate replacement if that’s why he’s been brought in.
Bert Posted 19 July 2018 Posted 19 July 2018 I just don't get this unless it means Kasper is off. Jakupovic is an able deputy, £10m just to provide competition. 2

Seriously what has Puel achieved at Leicester to think he can flog all our best players and sign championship players in their place? And after the Championship winning season, what have our players done to warrant the sacking of Ranieri, Shakespeare and nearly Puel last year?Some of them needed moving on including Marhez. If in the club's judgement Schmeichel is another then that's how it should be. We don't need our newer players contaminating with old team player power undermining of the manager whoever it is.

Ward is not an adequate replacement if that’s why he’s been brought in. I agree, I also don't see him as a replacement for Schmeichel unless they know and see something we don't. Schmeichel has been brilliant though not as good last season in fairness. Again, you're right about Puel but I think he should be better judged when he has his own players in. Let's face it, we had some very good players but a hotchpotch of individuals at the same time ie how many number 9s and no 10. He's now got a proper 10 in Maddison though we need to be patient there and we now have an attacking right back . Evans is experienced so looking promising. What we don't need is any undermining of the manager in front of the new and younger players.

Not adverse to Ward signing whatsoever because if he's never given a chance then we'll never know. The cynic in me is saying that there's more to this than meets the eye.
RowlattsFox Posted 19 July 2018 Posted 19 July 2018 £12m is ridiculous, just because he plays for Liverpool, imagine us trying to sell a 3/4th choice keeper for that kind of money. I'd hope that its a much lower initial fee with add-ons up to £12m. Jakupovic must have something lined up. If its replacing Kasper then we should definitely be looking at Butland, he can't stay at Stoke and he'd come here because it's difficult for a keeper to get a move, most clubs have a recognised number 1.
RoboFox Posted 19 July 2018 Posted 19 July 2018 Four years ago, we smashed our transfer record by spending £8m on Leo Ulloa. Now we're spunking potentially £12m on a back up goalkeeper who'll likely be warming the bench all season. My, how times have changed.

Don’t get me wrong I love Kasper, and I definitely don’t want him gone, but he does have a mistake in him - every keeper does (see De Gea in World Cup etc...)

Superpants82 Posted 19 July 2018 Posted 19 July 2018 As has been mentioned there was smoke at the end of last season with rumours that Kasper had refused to play, this seemed to be true as he got straight into the world cup squad uninjured. I don't believe for one second that Kasper is staying and Ward is coming as competition. I think we'll sell Kasper despite what is being reported.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 19 July 2018 Posted 19 July 2018 Would be good for a number 2 if Kasper goes then butland is the signing we need to make... if we are looking for a top 7/8 finish of course

He's been unreal. 1
