HankMarvin Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 Chelsea face competition from Bayer Leverkusen for Ajax keeper Andre Onana as 'Germans see opening £18m offer rejected' 30m would be a snip
Leicester_Loyal Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 Now Watford have gone down, as well as Sarr, I'd love Doucoure here. Steel in midfield that we seem to be lacking in a lot of games. 1
lcfc sheff Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 I think at £40m zaha would be a decent price, not sure we’ll be going for a “marquee” signing this summer

He's already started making the noises the day after the season ended and Roy is resigned to him leaving. Top 4, I doubt will need him. Spurs, Arsenal, Everton and us could be, realistic. None can afford £40m I would have thought. 1

Won't cost that much, at least not compared to Zaha.
ronnup Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 Forget about Zaha. He's not leaving Palace to play for us.
Popular Post mozartfox Posted 27 July 2020 Popular Post Posted 27 July 2020 Listening to the Monday Moan-in about who Strings and Pipes would sign, are recreational drugs freely available in Leicester? Southampton are for sure going to let Ings join the Foxes🤡 5
Gevans_97 Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 A tricky winger is essential if we want to push on. Someone that can beat a man like Mahrez used to. Benhrama seems the obvious target if Brentford don’t go up. Zaha doesn’t really feel like an “us” signing but he may just need a fresh start and could be great for us if we could get him on the cheap.

He definitely would. But for 40m and 100k+ a week, that'll be our whole transfer budget gone on one player. Edited 27 July 2020 by Leicester_Loyal

lgfualol Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 I wouldn't have taken Zaha a year ago but would like him to join now, I think he is exactly what we need. From our wingers, only Barnes can scare a defender (unless the defender has a phobia of stepovers that lead to nothing or lofted crosses to nobody) but he is still learning. Zaha would require 2-3 defenders which gives more space for everyone else. He obviously doesnt want to be at Palace anymore, if he actually wanted to join us and was up for it, we'd be laughing. I imagine he is looking for CL though.

At his age he needs to make a decision to determine if he is got it in him to go somewhere else and succeed. We are just the right club for him to move to, no real pressure, with the potential to improve a team going forward. 1

Nothing at all. Bombed at Man U. Fair enough he's got real talent but hes do inconsistent. There's way better options for what he'd cost. Pass

They just exist... he does what he can knowing he's gonna have 3 defenders kicking lumps out of him every game. You think getting him into the positions Barnes gets into, he wouldn't be more productive? Zaha has McArthur and McCarthy feeding him chances... We said at the end of last season, Barnes just needs a goal, but it came and he still doesn't convert enough. I like Barnes, he gets into promising positions but he doesn't utilise them enough. He could still improve but he doesn't even have competition for his spot.
alanf0x Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 Is Zaha any better than Gray, Barnes or Albrighton?!!! Get him in...
tetly Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 I would take Deeney a different option to what we have, and a leader on the pitch. And his interviews are decent. 1

moore_94 Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 Weren't we rumoured to have made a bid last summer for Sarr before he moved to Watford? Wouldn't surprise me if we went in for him However Watford supposedly paid around £30m for him so unless he has a release clause I imagine they would want a good chunk of that back for him
Sunbury Fox Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 I can't see us going for Zaha, even though I think he would be good for us. £40-50m on the transfer fee plus £130k+ pw wages for a 29 year old with no resale value at the end of his contract is not how we roll. Has Everton written all over it. We go for 2 types of player - under 25s with bags of potential or older experienced players for low fees.

Not sure Wilson is as physical haven’t seen enough of him.
DerbyshireFox Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 You hear Watford fans saying that Deeney has been shocking for them. He’s said himself yesterday he has been playing on one knee for months. Deeney of four or five years ago maybe. We have an ageing Morgan and Fuchs who have great experience and are great for the dressing room, but aren’t good enough going forward. We would be better investing elsewhere than on Deeney
SouthStandUpperTier Posted 27 July 2020 Posted 27 July 2020 If BR okays a move for Deeney I'll eat my skiddy underpants. 1
