The problem was that he never progressed. 6 goal contributions in 850 minutes of football works at around a goal contribution every 0.64 games. If you don't consider that impressive (especially for a 19 year old) then I doubt any player we could sign will impress you. 😂 We need someone who can perform now, not a 19 year old who is performing for his age group, so no, im not impressed right now. You hit the nail on the head at the start of your post, why would we sign someone who could very easily not progress past where he is now like gray did.

North Leeds Fox Posted 3 August 2020 Share Posted 3 August 2020 (edited) Leverkusen seem to be quite active looking for a cb. Hope it means that they are willing to sell Tapsoda or Tah! Both would be very welcome here. Edited 3 August 2020 by North Leeds Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they are in a similar position to us, heading into the Europa League, with just three decent centre backs Tah, Tapsoba and Dragovic ( I’d take any of those btw ) like we have Evans, Soyuncu and Benkovic. If one gets injured, you’re down to the bare bones. Four needed really Edited 3 August 2020 by FoxinNotts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch Posted 3 August 2020 Share Posted 3 August 2020 A lot of folk saying hes more of a #10. I can't personally disagree as I've only ever saw him once or twice but the stats show that not only did he play on the left more often last season but he generally played better there.

You hit the nail on the head at the start of your post, why would we sign someone who could very easily not progress past where he is now like gray did. It's not just good for his age group though? 0.64 goal contributions per 90 over a full season would be around 22 contributions which is up there with the best in the league? I appreciate it's a small sample size but we aren't in a position to sign a player who has already shown he's capable of 20 plus goal contributions. "why would we sign someone who could very easily not progress past where he is now like Gray did." Really? You could say this about pretty much any signing. Should we not have signed Vardy or Mahrez because they might not have improved? Very bizarre way of looking at things We don't have the spending power or the lure to attract players who are proven to be able to score and assist regularly at premier league level so our choices are buy young talent with big potential such as Hudson-Odoi (not that I think we'd even be able to sign him, he's probably too good) or buy nearly there players such as Ayoze Perez who may be slightly better short term but aren't going to improve massively and won't increase in value. I know which approach I'd rather we take. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeg67 Posted 4 August 2020 Share Posted 4 August 2020 Eze is better in the center than on the wing, but 16 million is a hell of a bargain. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbtcity Posted 4 August 2020 Share Posted 4 August 2020 If true I’d take Zouma plus say 50m for Chilwell 👌🏻 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Loyal Posted 4 August 2020 Share Posted 4 August 2020 Eze would be a great signing. Zouma would be decent too, good at defending and ok with his feet. Wages could be an issue though, sure he's on 80k a week, but if we can get him for a cheaper fee, happy days. I think with the current situation we won't be buying players and giving them big wages without selling a player first (Chilwell). https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8590701/Crystal-Palace-ready-sell-Wilfried-Zaha-just-30m-summer.html Palace ready to accept 30m now? That's come down a lot from 80m last summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry96 Posted 4 August 2020 Share Posted 4 August 2020 I’d definitely take a punt on zaha for that price 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dahnsouff Posted 4 August 2020 Share Posted 4 August 2020 Well tonight's game should be interesting in many ways Good game I expect If Brentford lose then they will likely be raided fairly heavily If Fulham lose then would Mitrovic be a good option for us?

matty98 Posted 4 August 2020 Share Posted 4 August 2020 Dominik Szoboszlai could be a good option, apparently has a release clause around £21m. Haven't really seen him play but he's racked up some crazy numbers for Salzburg this season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add him into the Chilwell deal could be superb for us. I would also take Barkley. At Everton he was a very good player, doesn't get the game time at Chelsea but rotating Maddison / Tielemans and Barkley is very good strength in depth. We will have 50+ games next year. These 2 could be a big help to our team this coming season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
