There will be players that are flown in for discussions that will see this and want to sign immediately. The size and scale of the academy is truly staggering. Hard to believe this will belong to Leicester City! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxondale Posted 20 August 2020 Share Posted 20 August 2020 That looks so, so impressive. I love the bronzey finish on the building. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough brown already. I reckon it'll be tarted up in a few years with a white/blue cladding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it will look fine once they do the landscaping and a few hundred trees get planted and grow in. Don't know what the facade is made of but hope it is something that ages and has a more inconsistent character. Anything to take some of the stark quality away. Its just my preference for contrast and balance. I'm an artist go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks really high quality. Putting cladding on it would be like painting a Lambo with rattle cans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand it's probably got to be in keeping with the landscape, same reason the indoor pitch has a part grass roof but you'd hardly know what our club colours were from these images. Obviously going for the subtle look. Hopefully the interior will be more blue, looks incredible either way. Meh, looks the same as Southampton's. They would have never got permission to build a bright blue building in the middle of the Leicestershire countryside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
