reynard Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 7 hours ago, MPH said: Best loan spell ever? Too early to say. I'm reminded of the 1982-83 season when we needed a touch of midfield class and we signed Gerry Daly on loan from Coventry. He'd played a lot of games for Man Utd and Derby and was exactly what we needed. Lots of fans wanted us to sign him just like now but sadly Coventry wouldn't sell. He was probably the difference between us being promoted to the 1st Division as it was then. He sat deeper than Tielemans but just as Tielemans has allowed Maddison to play more freely so did Daly allow a very young Kevin MacDonald to really develop,
Babylon Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 The lads unbelievable, he's looking so good the club are just going to have to find the money somehow.

Missing piece of the jigsaw. Not bashing Harry when I say this, but yesterday proved we can cope just fine without him - I think he’ll be where the money comes from/is recouped from. We need Youri more than we need Harry!

Farrington fox Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 It's going to be an anxious wait in the window, be such a blow if we don't sign this lad. He will only get better, lets just hope it is at our club.
Happy Fox Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 Class act, we need to sign him permanently. He’s going to improve further when his fitness picks up imo.
John12345 Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 He is either using this as a shop window to get a big move or he is going to sign with the promise that with us the whole team will be built around him as opposed to being in and out the team but probably get a bigger wage. It will help if we can get into Europe (is that poss with 7th). I think puel can be thanked for him though. He must have played a part in the signing.
Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 His agent is licking his lips right now. The mobile is probably hopping non-stop. Would love it to happen, but if we can see he's quality, so can half of Europe now.
MGLCFC Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 I still think the big thing in our favour is that Monaco are very keen to keep Silva. Added to this is his desire to play regularly which we can guarantee and the lad looks genuinely happy at the club. I would certainly hope that breaking our transfer record on this type of quality player is within the recruitment remit.

Deeg67 Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 Truth is, Tielemans wouldn’t be here without Puel. And if he’d been here all season Puel wouldn’t have been fired. Ironic, ain’t it? Rodgers is a well-credentialed guy and he may do very well here. But between the new manager bounce and adding Youri, this nice run is eminently unsurprising. Make no mistake, Tielemans is the straw that stirs the drink - he was the missing piece so many of us (including Puel, obviously) were saying all season we needed. In addition to all the things he does himself his presence makes everyone better, both because of his organizational skill and the way he lets other guys play their natural roles at last.

Yeah there are some footballers you can just tell immediately when you see them that they're head and shoulders above. They ooze class. When Kante first dropped in to centre midfield, when Cambiasso joined, I have the same reaction when I watch Tielmans. I'm genuinely stunned he's not got on in Monaco given this is ultimately a fundamentally higher level. Their club must be rotten af.
foxinsocks Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 We as fans need to "show him the love" We need to sort out a song pretty quick .... You're the one that we want Hoo hooo hooo youri!
mikey54 Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 I get the impression that he just wants to play regular football. Looks like he’s enjoying himself too
Bazly Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 We have had a lot of duff high ticket signings recently. What Tielemans shows is that loaning players before buying could be a smart way to operate. OK you do pay more if the player works out but you potentially save much more over having to pay wages and downgrade the transfer value on a flop.
murphy Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 Another piece in the 'Leicester City Genuine World Class XI' jigsaw: (a few missing pieces still, obviously) 1. Banks 2. 4. 5. 3. 11.Mahrez 8.Cambiasso 6.Kante 7.Tielemans 9.Lineker 10.Mancini

The way it's going, he'd command £50-55m minimum soon. I think we just lob £30m and Silva and hope they say yes right now.

ithuriel Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 Looks quality and is given freedom to play by N'Didi being the lynchpin between the defence and the forward two in midfield, Tilly and Maddy, well worth £40 million in todays money.
tickler28 Posted 31 March 2019 Posted 31 March 2019 Hate to be a pessimist but I think his stock is rising so quickly that he will bypass us. I am as gutted as the next person but not buying him in January will probably be the biggest mistake in hindsight we've ever made. The only thing that might stop him joining a top 6 club is if we sneak into the Europa League.
