We can think good or bad of him for trying something else but if he does not come back so be it and thanks for everything but if he does return absolutely get 100% behind him and the club
sm1 Posted 18 November 2018 Posted 18 November 2018 I can't understand the negativity. He was offered a promotion and more money to go to Everton. I think most of us would've done the same, if given the opportunity. It never worked out, but if we have a role for him and he wants to come back, I'd take him with open arms.
Tringfox Posted 18 November 2018 Posted 18 November 2018 I would love to see him come back, his good signings easily outnumbered his bad ones and to find two world class players in Mahrez and Kante for very little money the man deserves a second chance at our club!
CloudFox Posted 18 November 2018 Posted 18 November 2018 Is there actually a link for this? Can't find anything on it.

katieakita Posted 18 November 2018 Posted 18 November 2018 Perhaps a marketing ploy to see who reads the People

StriderHiryu Posted 18 November 2018 Posted 18 November 2018 A man that found Knockaert, Mahrez, Kante, Vardy, Kramaric is always welcome here! His success rate is much better than most!

I think Vardy, Huth, Morgan, Drinkwater, Mahrez, Simpson, Okazaki, and Kante combined cost around £22/23 million in total, Exceptional recruitment.

I think to be fair not all were his signings. To be specific, I know that players from foreign countries he was responsible for... maybe in this country too, but definitely foreign signings. He found Knocky, found Mahrez when we went to watch another player (so recognised a player simply from seeing him once or twice), found Kante who went on to win a World Cup, when Ranieri brought in Inler as our marquee signing (lol!). Kramaric was definitely his and though he didn't work out here, look how he has progressed, played in a World Cup final! I also believe that Walsh was the person that pushed Chelsea to sign Drogba from Marseille too when he was there. That is an absolutely insane record and more impressive considering he found many players who were essentially complete unknowns.

eblair Posted 18 November 2018 Posted 18 November 2018 cannot slag him off for the mess of recruitment in the summer of 2016, yes he scouted it them but he did not sign off on the prices remember nigel saying we fancied that icelandic striker who cost Cardiff 9m but we valued him at 0.5m, his job was to find players and assign a value. He found the players, the someone else did the valuation as he was gone. Even saying that didn't we breakeven with Musa, who clearly is not as bad a player as he looked in a city shirt

Musa and Kram.. the two that got away..
koop. Posted 18 November 2018 Posted 18 November 2018 Great news if true What are you lot on about? Honestly give your heads a wobble.
Sly Posted 18 November 2018 Posted 18 November 2018 Good; Vardy Mahrez Kante Okazaki Knockaert Keane Siggurdsson Pickford Debatable: Kramaric Rooney Bad: Musa Slimani Klassen Vlasic Ramerez It’s not really that bad is it?!?
st albans fox Posted 18 November 2018 Posted 18 November 2018 Walsh pushed and pushed Claudio to sign Kante ..... no Walsh and there would have been no Kante .... no Kante and there would have been no premier league trophy .......
lgfualol Posted 18 November 2018 Posted 18 November 2018 Umm dont see what harm it would do if Puel and him dont end up fighting. We have done alright without him though. Dont care really. Not sure why I am even posting.

Sigurdsson (40m) and Musa (got back our money) are debatable. Add Gueye to the good list and Bolasie to the bad list (we were linked with both right before he left). Also Lookman was his. Didn't he leave partly because of not getting on with Ranieri? I remember being really annoyed about it at the time
