jayfox26 Posted 17 May 2019 Posted 17 May 2019 Someone I know has a contact at Man City who says they are interested in Chilwell but apparently he's being advised to stay at Leicester to cement his England place. Would make a lot of sense as hes still young and learning and its not guarenteed he would play regularly at Man City if Mendy stays fit.

I think we will keep Chilly for the season & then we best hope for 2 things to keep hold of him the following year. Either 1) We qualify for Europe or 2) Mendy has an injury free season.

We absolutely need to be playing in Europe to have any chance of keeping our best players long term.

If true, it's refreshing to know he isn't surrounded by arseholes.

I think in some ways, we’ve been fortunate to lose the likes of Drinkwater and Mahrez. As much as I think Mahrez will shine next season they’re perfect examples of the grass not always being greener. Couple that with the fact Ben has ended like Shaws England career in the space of 12 months... someone who is at a so called “big six” club... Players are starting to wake up and see the value of patience, if he goes this season the expectation is huge. If he stays and has another great season and smashes it for England then there’s more of a trust element there and whoever he signs for will treat him more like a pro than a risky young punt who they need to deliver instantly... there would be less of a circus around it and he’ll be allowed to just do his thing! I think with City especially, they know their issue is centre mid, so far in the last two seasons they’ve converted a centre mid and an attacking left and ride sided midfielder to a left back! It’s clearly not that pressing an issue

Foxxed Posted 18 May 2019 Posted 18 May 2019 He'll stay at least a season more to cement his England place. And he'll stay seasons more dependent on European football. Eventually we'll phase in Luke Thomas if Chilwell leaves.

Exciting prospects, but fail to make top 6 and I think we could be struggling to hold on to our best young players.

I think the club knows this themselves hence the rumours of us spending big this summer.
NewquayFox Posted 19 May 2019 Posted 19 May 2019 In my honest opinion I don’t think Chilwell is good enough (yet) to make the step up to a top 4 club, stay here and learn the finer arts of your defensive duties and develop a killer cross and we may have a £50/£60/£70 million player on our hands....
Ric Flair Posted 19 May 2019 Posted 19 May 2019 £125m double bid for Maguire and Chilwell, yes or no?

I know every club has to sell players, but we’ve had too many key players leave over recent years.. 2 more in one window and you have to question the ambition of the club. We need to keep our best players if we want to achieve anything
Bluearmyfox28 Posted 19 May 2019 Posted 19 May 2019 43 minutes ago, Ric Flair said: £125m double bid for Maguire and Chilwell, yes or no? Doubt the club could refuse that to be honest. £50m for Chilly & £75m for Maguire. Bring in Tierney for £25m & Jonathan Tah £40m (Release clause) leaves you £60m profit. Hard to say no. Lascelles could also be a good option if we are to lose Maguire. However I would rather keep both for the record.

He’d slot into Man City’s side lovely.

Ric Flair Posted 19 May 2019 Posted 19 May 2019 Alex Telles is a sensation, not quite sure how he and Ricardo weren't snapped up earlier than their mid twenties.
