Buzzell Posted 2 August 2019 Share Posted 2 August 2019 I wish him all the best at Utd, he is a great defender. I just hope Vardy tears him a new arsehole when they come up against each other. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KFS Posted 2 August 2019 Share Posted 2 August 2019 1 minute ago, Langston said: The timing is appalling and I'm now significantly less confident in our chances of achieving something special this season. Hope we've got someone lined up, or Soyuncu cuts out the brainfarts. Fair play to the club for setting a price and sticking with it though. This is the only frustration for me. Let’s hope one of our young boys can step up like it was no doubt planned last Summer. Pros: Huge fee Gets rid of someone who doesn’t want to be here He isn’t our best defender, lots of hype because he can bring the ball out, poor positioning Cons: It’s late in the window Uncertainty if one of the newer boys can step up He was a stalwart in the team and dressing room 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad to see him go as I think he could have really gone places here, but you can't argue that the club have let him go easily. 4 minutes ago, lcfceaves said: Not happy he’s gone, happy it’s all over with 4 minutes ago, North Leeds Fox said: Great player and it will weaken our cb department without a doubt.

Signing players and selling them on for big profit is what we're likely to do for a while. People need to square that away with themselves and get used to it now. Sure - the fee is fantastic and our stoicism is applaudable - but it's disingenuous to compare it to other transfers - especially stuff like Ronaldo and Pogba - because fees move on all the time. And we've lost our best defender, our only real threat at set pieces, our only defender who can bring it out from the back, gain territory and link the defence to the midfield. And strengthened a direct rival. Annnnnnnd we're only going to have to spend half of it on a sub par replacement. We've just diddled Man Utd, now let's watch Burnley/Brighton do the same to us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

les-tah Posted 2 August 2019 Share Posted 2 August 2019 We will miss him especially his personality and team spirit Massively .. BUT he does leave the defence vulnerable a lot of times with his positioning! Let’s hope Evans takes both Benkovic and Soyuncu under his wing!

volpeazzurro Posted 2 August 2019 Share Posted 2 August 2019 Very sad in one way but our owners and Rodgers must be ok with it. It gives us more spending power but whether we've anything lined up who knows. I like Dunk but 50m would not be worth selling Maguire for. Praet is underwhelming for me also but admittedly only know what I've read and trust the club would by far know best. We'll just have to wait and see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted 2 August 2019 Share Posted 2 August 2019 Was more heartbroken when Kante, Mahrez, Drinkwater & Shinji went. Hopefully we go spend the money on a winger and attacking midfielder instead of another CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
