Some Leicester fans I'm sure are saying the same thing about Chilwell to Chelsea. Vestergaard is not terrible by any means - he had success at both Bremen and BMG - but I don't think he'd be more than a squad player for us. Obviously we would need strengthening with Morgan getting closer to retirement and Amartey likely being sold, while Benkovic is still up in the air. 1

Shane Posted 10 June 2020 Posted 10 June 2020 Vestergaard, Bennett and Morgan is pretty poor back up for Evans and Soyuncu 1

Nicolo Barella Posted 10 June 2020 Posted 10 June 2020 He's very slow, that's really the only criticism I have of him. I guess he's a decent option but not very sexy in a footballing sense, it must be admitted.

FoxFossil Posted 10 June 2020 Posted 10 June 2020 Is this Sean of Enderby's big news? Hope not, need something a bit more exciting please Sean.
BKLFox Posted 10 June 2020 Posted 10 June 2020 all those other names branded about & its going to be him....
winteriscoming Posted 10 June 2020 Posted 10 June 2020 Not impressed with that if true. Any chance we could sign a centre back with pace?

There was a reason why Evans was linked with Man City, Man Utd and Arsenal.

lcfc sheff Posted 10 June 2020 Posted 10 June 2020 There’s nothing in this! It’s the same as when we got linked with that juventus midfielder!
FerrisBueller Posted 10 June 2020 Posted 10 June 2020 Seems like we were pretty keen for him in the Jan window, but it was blocked by RH.

We've been linked for numerous transfer windows, as per with many signings we make. We know Brendan wants a defender who knows the Prem, he offers extreme height that we don't really have currently and would be probably fine being that 3rd or 4th choice CB.
Lambert09 Posted 10 June 2020 Posted 10 June 2020 FFS. Just throw money at brighton for Ben White. Would be happy to spend a CL year as 3rd choice as he would still get a lot of minutes and would be a class eventual Evans replacement. 3

There are a lot of good young, mobile CBs around at the mo, and whilst we're also being hit financially, there must be clubs needing to sell, and players keen to join us. Hopefully this is a smokescreen...🙏

FoxinNotts Posted 10 June 2020 Author Posted 10 June 2020 Highly rated whilst in Germany. I’m fine with him sitting on our bench, and filling in when needed. He’s not had a great season this term, but I’m sure Kasper would know him well, and must have had a word about him. Rather have him on the pitch than Bennett or Morgan (although I do love Wes and his captaincy, he’s just too old to start games now imo). What baffles me is what the staff think of Benković! BR seems to have lost faith in him

Would be happy to spend a CL year as 3rd choice as he would still get a lot of minutes and would be a class eventual Evans replacement. He’s too short. With the counter pressing style we have, the plan is to cut off passing lanes so that the opposition only have the choice to go long. Then the aerial ability of Wilf and the 2 centre backs is crucial in winning back possession. That’s the reason all the centre backs we are currently linked with are 6ft 3+.

mozartfox Posted 10 June 2020 Posted 10 June 2020 Would rather Wes was given another 10 years. This would be a wholly uninspiring signing (even on a free) and would probably drive me to self isolate for the duration of his contract. If this is the best Congers can do - then I am sorry but he simply has to go. 1

If we’re linked with him it would be nothing more than a loan just like Bennett!
