John12345 Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 Is he still at the club Does he have a future with Brendan now the midfield is packed
ealingfox Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 He was at the Luton game sat next to the away end. He looked bloody miserable.
John12345 Posted 1 October 2019 Author Posted 1 October 2019 Ashame as a decent player who'd no doubt improve with Rodgers like all the others but seems very unlikely he will get a chance now.
CollinsLCFC Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 Final year of his contract iirc? A decent squad player to have, should anything happen to N'Didi and/or Choudhury.

I’ve no doubt that would be the case with BR getting even more out of him ... could almost be Kante-like ... but we are rich with talent in this department and game time would be limited.

Fox92 Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 I did see him get off the bus at Luton. Surprised he didn't make the squad. Can't see him being part of Brendan's plans and can't say I'm disapointed.
Tielemans63 Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 Decent player but nowhere near the quality of Wilf or Hamza. I'd imagine he'd be sold in Jan so we get a transfer fee for him before he leaves for nothing.
foxy boxing Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 I doubt he'll be here much longer. gone in january or next summer.
Blue ROI Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 Not that bad a player but our midfield is as good as any other club around right now so he looks finished with us sadly.
Ric Flair Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 Can see him and Amartey going in the summer and Josh Knight being the squad filling replacement
Nicolo Barella Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 Poor guy should have left in the summer. Unfortunate to be sat behind the best holding mid in the league and a very promising young talent

Unfortunate to be sat behind the best holding mid in the league and a very promising young talent I think N'Didi can be described as more than a very promising young talent. Mendy is a good player, I think that a French team will step in for him in January.
ARM1968 Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 He’s a good player, just never really got going with us through one thing and another. Hope he finds a team away from us and gets regular football.
Gerard Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 Not good enough. We now have five players trying to get into those three CM positions but those five are all higher end PL quality in Ndidi, Choudhury, Maddison, Tielemans and Praet. It's exactly what BR wants, a smaller squad of about 20 genuine players who can come in and perform without an obvious drop in quality.
Gazza M Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 Try to flog in Jan and release if no takers. Amartey can stay as reserve CM and then flog him too next summer!
UpTheLeagueFox Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 Ranieri was desperate to sign him in the summer of 2015 and had to be strongly persuaded to have Kante instead, who NP/CS/SW had spent some time scouting and lining up. He finally got his way when Kante departed.

StriderHiryu Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 I'm guessing he's on a 4 year deal so will be a free agent next summer. He's been treated very harshly but the emergence of Hamza Choudhury means it's a case of either developing a young player with massive potential who is a Leicester fan and emerging hero, or persevere with a player with an expiring contract. Funnily enough, Rodgers chose the former. Mendy is a decent player, but he never set the world alight as part of the double pivot or in his games he played under Rodgers. Perhaps that's being harsh because of the system and tactics Puel employed, but he was signed as Kante's replacement, and the true replacement is of course Wilfred Ndidi. I also think that unlike some other players, he can't really blame not being treated fairly as he had a long run in the team. That said I am surprised there was no interest in him in the summer. Mendy would be a good player for many teams in the Premier League, even some midtable ones. He's solid but unspectacular, but some players like that are needed in every team.
urban.spaceman Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 For the benefit of those with OCD can we move this back to the General Chat? Ta x
Shane Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 He'd be a good signing for a lot of teams in the PL
whoareyaaa Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 he looked to be having a good pre season but with the emergence of Preat and Choudary I think his time is up.
HybridFox Posted 1 October 2019 Posted 1 October 2019 Like Amartey, I hope he's moved on. No room in this current side.
