RowlattsFox Posted 11 January 2019 Share Posted 11 January 2019 Could be a sign now and loan back until the summer deal. I know we need players now but may make them more likely to accept a deal. I've not seen enough him but its not something that gets me too excited. If true though its good to see we wil continue with our approach of giving young players an opportunity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an element of this that makes me quite happy we are not chasing the journeyman signing.. the usual types that Everton and West Ham go for the zabaleta, Walcott, nasri when they're best is behind them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maja has only just broken through and has a long way to go before being ready to play at the top level. If a PL club did sign him it would be for future, not now.

KFS Posted 11 January 2019 Share Posted 11 January 2019 Yes please. We need a Vardy type who’s young enough but scored goals at a decent level. Fits the bill for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My underlining. Yeah you look at his stats (I know, I know) and it paints a picture of him only coming good since last October. His form since then has been sublime though so it comes down to the age old question of form vs class and it's down to our recruitment team to answer that.

My underlining. Yeah, no one knows whether he will be good or not but then, the text you quoted, could almost be verbatim what many of our own fans said about Vardy in his early days here. Many would have been happy for him to go. In my original post the important word was PROSPECT. I am willing to take the risk.

The People's Hero Posted 12 January 2019 Share Posted 12 January 2019 I’m not entirely convinced on him but looking for a young goal scorer in the EFL who can make the step up is what every club is doing. I hope we are still looking at the lower leagues and even non league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
