Leonardo Ulloa - Gone to C.F. Pachuca

[Guest]

So is it a sale or loan? Any idea of the fee?

 

Was great for us, spoiled it with his mahrez like tantrum but actually looked decent in the short pre-season time he got.

 

Good to be getting him off the books.

 

We have plenty of strikers and getting the high earners like Slim, Musa and Ulloa off the books frees up chances for the younger guys as well as the possibility of bringing someone in on loan.

 

Also when Maguire goes to Manure in January and we bring Rashford (or more likely Martial) in as part payment we can actually afford to pay them.

Brace against Swansea as well. 4-0 when everyone thought we couldn’t go on without Vardy.

Going to run out of rep on this thread ?

He always brings back memories of the Norwich match for me.  

 

Proof one magical moment is definitely worth going through 88 minutes of a lacklustre non descript game!

Rumours are the team is Pachuca. Will be watching out for Leo in the various random Liga MX games I tend to watch. He certainly did his part for us. Oddly one of my biggest memories of him was when he destroyed us playing for Brighton (I think we’d already got promoted tho). 

 

My biggest memory from that game was Gary Taylor Fletcher scoring a consolation goal that we celebrated like we'd won the Premier League. How little we knew... 

[fuchsntf]

He'll get games,and now  can finish his later life career,with many more  games under his belt.

 

Hes nothing but a legend,in this somewhat small City in the Midlands,of a small Island.

He will be remembered fondly  in the hearts,of this Generation of Leicester City fans.

He will haunt the pub corners and quizzes well into the future.

 

I hope he can rekindle,those talents for his New Club..C.F.Pachuca,and also go into

their annuals of history....Goodbye Leonardo Ulloa,let the footballing gods be Kind

to you in the closing years of your career..

 

Oh!!    And thankyou,for those unique moments and memories,that Were destined

Just to be yours,while carrying proudly our Foxes badge...

All the best Leo. 

 

Thanks for everything. Notably, Stoke away, West Ham and Norwich at home. 

[Koke]

Anybody know the fee we got for him?

[Spudulike]

Should rename the earthquake to the 'Leo Quake'.

 

I can remember like yesterday Leo lining up 'that' penalty remembering what the Brighton fans told us about not letting him take penalties. Son sat down with his head in his hands, couldn't look, me deciding that I'd be calm as he'll probably miss anyway and I can't effect it from the top of the West Stand. What a moment, unforgettable.

The stones on Leo when he took that penalty vs Jonathon Moss and the hammers.

That is my Ulloa moment, and by god there have been a few which, in there own ways, have been equal or better. So why that one? I dunno really, something to do with starting to sincerely believe that we were special (as if I needed more) Leo stepped up, Leo breathed fire into even the nonbelievers.

[MC Prussian]

Great servant to the club, the only negative aspect was him making a scene under Ranieri.

 

But he quickly recovered and has remained silent and loyal ever since.

 

Added some vital goals over the years, his contribution will always remain highly appreciated.

All the best in Mexico, Leo!

[CarbonVirtine]

Ulloa going, really does feel like a transition now. Funny innit how stuff catches you out. I'm feeling quite emotional tbh. 

 

Favourite armchair kinda thoughts perhaps. Never fully appreciated whilst it was there, sentiment kicks in when it goes.

 

Best of luck Leo, you go with my warmest thanks.

[roblcfc84]

Good luck Leo, always did his best when called upon! Club legend. 

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Thanks for the goals and the part you played in our greatest ever success.

 

Good luck Leo

[mancunianfox]

Weird how we all worried about the massive fee and now you can’t even buy a backup for that.

[CloudFox]

Oh Leo! Will probably be one of my favourite players for *those* moments. Genuine tugs on the heartstrings right now.

 

So many moments. But personally, I'll remember the West Ham game, behind the goal, with Vardy getting sent off for a "dive" (**** off was it a dive), us all being furious and 2-1 down until we won a penalty. Leonardo "Ice Cold" Ulloa steps up, slams it home and we go berserk in front of him.

 

Thank you, Leo ?

If we're also loaning out Slim we'll have no big man up front. Benkovic and Maguire will be in for cornersb though.

[sheffield_fox]

Thanks for all the memories Leonardo. Nerves of steel when it mattered. Leicester City legend. 

[Edingleyfox]

Thanks Leo

 

I will always remember his goals against United in that 5-3 win 

 

Still singing his name at the Notts friendly a few weeks ago.Has been loyal in spite of limited game time.

 

Will be missed

[Foxxed]

That goal against Norwich in the last few minutes when we were pushing for the title and looking poor will live on in my memory.

 

 

 

Those neck muscles!

[Raj]

One of the best chants for a player!!!

[FoxonMaui]

His contribution in the title winning season was vital! Like many of us I will never forget the relief I felt when he swept home the late goal against Norwich , scored that nerve jangling equalizer from the spot against West Ham and then the sound of the roar in the stadium when you headed in the second against Swansea. Unforgettable Leo, you will always be a legend in the story of LCFC. On top of that you are a great guy from all I have heard and seen. I remember late after the Athletico game in Madrid watching you taking the time for chats with people before you left the stadium.

Wishing you the best for you and your family.

Good luck, big guy.
