Shows how much notice of other leagues I take I reckon he'd come here then, wage rise and playing in England. This is obviously if we do try to go for him.

Would give us an option similar to Perez, where you could play him as a winger or a striker. ...isn't that the problem at the moment!! Perez is very divisive, in respect of his contribution to the squad and a popular belief is that he should be playing in a central position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volland is a proven goalscorer, makes assists, can play anywhere across the front 3 and could easily take some pressure off Vardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaqo88 Posted 3 July 2020 Share Posted 3 July 2020 Anyone have any thoughts on Leon Bailey? Saw headline suggesting he could be available for £20-30m this summer and we could do with a winger... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 3 July 2020 Share Posted 3 July 2020 If it's true Depay is available for £20mil we should be all over that although I think without CL we won't be pulling that off now, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes absolutely rapid and would be an upgrade on our current wingers. Can see all the big clubs being in for him though, especially at that price. Could even see Man City going for him as a Sane replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the obvious choice to join, we often line transfers up in advance. reports in France weve discussed a deal and hes available for 20m. https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/leicester-city-arsenal-everton-transfer-4280207 Would be a very Leicester transfer.

This has all the hallmarks of a transfer we'd do. Tried to do it in a previous window, in January but all parties agreed to return to the negotiating table another time and let him stay there for the rest of the season. Fits the profile of the sort of player we like to invest in, he looks very talented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players who can put the ball in the net or l'm going to go out of my mind with the relentless negativity on the forum. Looks pretty rapid can he double as a winger?

Not a replacement, just back up and competition. Ideally to compete in the CL but we might not even have Europa League at this rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ndidi with a better range of passing, it would be hard not to see him start every game. Playing him and Ndidi would leave a situation with Maddison or Tielemanns rotating or Praet just taking up space on the bench. Great to have strength in depth but running up a large wage bill.

If we don’t get Europe then there is probably no need to sign him, or Wilf might be more likely to go (I doubt he would tho) I think the idea tho is he just comes in for rotation/back up and one for the future. Taking Mendy’s role in the squad rather than Ndidi’s. ..I really can not see him coming hear to sit on the bench!!! If he is negotiating with other teams I am sure he will be looking at the team that guarantee first team football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he’s got a mistake in him, but personally think he’d be quite decent for us at a sensible price. Don’t think he’s gonna be at Man City much longer with Eric Garcia coming through. The guy can't defend, which is a big problem for a centre back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeg67 Posted 4 July 2020 Share Posted 4 July 2020 I would hate to see us spend 20M on a defender or a holding midfielder. Attacking options need to be priority 1, 2 and 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolo Barella Posted 5 July 2020 Share Posted 5 July 2020 Basically all our good attacking players are best played centrally. Vardy, Iheanacho, Perez, Barnes. We either go balls out and ditch wingers totally, or we sign at least 1 really good winger. I really can't see any one winger that we could sign who would immediately be "the one" for us, but that's why we have scouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard disagree, in the ideal situation where we get CL, we're looking at 60 games with our only backups to Evans and Soyuncu being Morgan who is really, really old, and Benkovic, who is still an unknown quantity. Centreback is definitely priority 2 or 3. 1 being Mahrez's heir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
