Babylon Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 Said it the other day, CM is top priority for me in January. We can get bodies elsewhere by bringing back Slim and Barnes. Not perfect I know, but it buys you time until the Summer window. We get a look at Barnes and see whether he shows enough promise to not have to go out and buy a winger. Plus Slim gets one more chance to actually build some value for a sale in the summer.

Babylon Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 5 minutes ago, lanefox said: Is slim coming back then? More of a suggestion. January is notoriously difficult and expensive time to buy, so getting two starters and a top class striker is probably pushing it. A CM now and then look at the rest in the summer would make more sense if nothing is available that suitably improves us. No coincidence that our best signings tend to be the ones we've got done early, who i'd Imagine were first choices. Those that came in at the end of the window have tended to not work out. So unless your first choice is available and not a silly price, just re-call some of our own players and plod on until June.
tetly Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 Didn’t Vardy fall out with slim? I thought that was the main reason he had left us.

This is my feeling too, although a loan move ourselves for Gabbiadini and Slimani going to Besiktas (been reported) wouldn't be the worst piece of business either.
Nick Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 How about Ceballos from Real? - only early 20’s and not really getting a look in - he can play at 10 or more centrally is a phenomenal passer, crosser and dribbler.... Offer them £35 million and see if they burst into fits of laughter or not.... I earlier just wrote this by accident in another thread though mainly because I was trying to raise the aspirations of peeps who were suggesting we take players from clubs like Brentford.

danny2997 Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 I'd like for us to go for Fabregas, I think he'd be a good replacement for Silva and Iborra. Been linked with Wolves already, so seems he wouldn't be unrealistic.

lcfc sheff Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 Fabregas would be my dream move, used to be my favourite player (outside of Leicester) growing up.
lanefox Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 From what puel has said to stringer think it will be 1 or 2 players and he is putting more focus into the summer window

Guest Manini Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 I like the look of Matt Ritchie, his ball control is lovely.
foxes21 Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 What about Koziello? He was highly rated at Nice then made a bad career choice by moving to Germany. Worked under Puel and is a creative box to box CM. Would only cost about 5-10m.
gw_leics772 Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 Just looked at sky sports transfer centre. Tammy abraham to wolves or £18m and bournemouth prepared to let defoe go. Theres your plan b and vardy cover/impact sub all wrapped up.

Having Ritchie AND Albrighton in the team would be a ridiculous waste if me didn't have a target man. It would be pointless. If we DID have one though,it would be lethal.
chris_lcfc_85 Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 Dominic solanke on loan, Victor Moses and Phil foden on loan
Ashley Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 Probably not January but I'd love us to go for the Batman. If were serious about going for Europa League, challenging the top six hes the sort of striker we need to go for. Oh and a competent winger or two.

GingerrrFox Posted 2 January 2019 Posted 2 January 2019 I’d love to have Jonjo Shelvey here. Reckon we we could have him for £15 million to replace Iborra

High chance of being suspended more than he plays I think he would find another level surrounded by a good group of players. He’s got everything you need to be a real deep playmaker in this league. Puel has a reputation for managing difficult players like Ben Arfa and getting the best out of them. Newcastle need money and if we could get him ticking he offers something we don’t currently have in the squad.
