It's difficult to read Puel's mind on how much he rates Elder - given his pre-season performances, I think he's worth a chance in the squad. Mendy, now another possibility of being loaned out:- http://sportwitness.co.uk/leicester-midfielders-name-keeps-popping-club-search-look-replace-e30m-departure/ Edited 17 August 2018 by bald reynard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's difficult to read Puel's mind on how much he rates Elder - given his pre-season performances, I think he's worth a chance in the squad. He's been on loan so much, and definitely worn out the u23s. He seems useful in a number of position on the left so I guess Puel will keep him around as a left sided utility player. When Fuchs leaves next season we'll need a backup left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's difficult to read Puel's mind on how much he rates Elder - given his pre-season performances, I think he's worth a chance in the squad. With Kapustka rejecting the move to Benevento, I wonder if that's because he's been told he might get a place in the 25 man squad? Perhaps at the expense of Elder? The club might feel that Elder is more likely to get a(nother) loan to an EFL club. I know that Kaputska is a winger / attacking midfielder, but we are in more need of forward players at the moment than defensive.

alanf0x Posted 21 August 2018 Share Posted 21 August 2018 A mate of mine was out with jakupovic on Saturday night. He said that he was just picking up a wage at Leicester, Claude doesn’t even speak to him.

I have no idea of the rules and regulations....but if they announce those player numbers,surely it they don't go out on loan,or slip out the backdoor To a foreign contract,then they can be chosen for the gamer-day squad,and cup games..... Plus how many are 21 and under,and how many are home grown... I don't understand if Puel doesn't require Simpson,why he still has the nr 2 shirt,and nr4 hasn't yet been given out..!!

Finn Claw II Posted 24 August 2018 Share Posted 24 August 2018 So summing so othef the above up, the 25 man squad will be (i’ve It included any u21s) GKs: Kasper, Ward, Jakupovic, FBs: Fuchs, Chilwell, Ricardo, Armarty CBs: Maguire, Evans, Morgan, Soyuncu CMs; Ndidi, Silva, Iborra, Mendy W: Gray, Albrighton, Diabate, Ghezzal, Maddison CFs: Vardy, Nacho, Shinji, So that is 23 in total. The othef 2 from James, King, Kaputska, Benny and Simpson. My guess would be James and Simpson to stay from that 5. Benkovic and Choudhury are the only U21s that might get game time in PL.

I believe that Chilwell counts as a U21 still, as well as James Maddison. That frees up two more spots. Kaputska is also a U21, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"An Under 21 player is defined as one who is under the age of 21 on 1st January in the year in which the season commences." You're right. My mistake.

It will be fascinating to see what CP will do with King and Simpson. Now Kapustka has gone and Benny PROBABLY has gone (if the rumours about contract termination are true), he can't put either King or Simpson in the squad, unless he loses people like Elder.

NewquayFox Posted 3 September 2018 Share Posted 3 September 2018 Bold statement if Puel leaves King & Simpson out in favour of Elder, but I think we are a club in transition and looking to the future with all the young players making a great impression...
