TECHNICALLY A NEW SIGNING WOOOOOO

[Collymore]

Good news, he'll be very suited to European football no doubt. 

[StriderHiryu]

Good to see something is happening at the club!

 

I think it's a smart decision, with European games and the rammed schedule due to Coronavirus, we will need players to step in, and Mendy always does a solid if not spectacular job. And probably saves us 18m+ to get a replacement in too.

seems sensible tbh, I know he’s nothing special but he’ll do as backup for another 2 years

[Happy Fox]

2 years for a squad player that hardly plays sounds about right.

[Swarles Barkley]

Woop woop thats the sound of Nampalys.

[RonnieTodger]

I'm sure I read that the club isn't a charity

[Leicester_Loyal]

Good news IMO. We don't have the funds to splash on backup CMs at the minute, plus we'll have 50 games in 9 months, so need bodies. Additionally I don't think he would have signed for just one year, so we didn't have much of a choice really.

[EnderbyFox]

I think we can all agree that this is the contract extension announcement we've all been waiting for.

Welcome home, lord

[Blue and white]

Another new deal for someone who doesn't play.

[Tuna]

He's had some terrible luck with the Arsenal injury early on but has proved to be a useful backup option and will provide good experienced cover in what will be a long season with the Europa League.

[MGLCFC]

If things change at the end of the season, can always be sold on now.

[jonthefox]

Surprising this. I thought he’d leave for more opportunities. 

[Foxhateram]

Would prefer to see Choudhury and Dewsbury-Hall get the chance to be honest. I'd have preferred to re-sign Kingy, at least he offers goal scoring abilities. 

 

Mendy has had plenty of chances and has been shown to be too lightweight and easily dispossessed. 

 

Squad player at best, I suppose useful for depth. I'd expect him to be way down the pecking order though, behind the players mentioned above and even James.

Will be good for cup games and also against anyone shite in the Europa League. 

[Vindaloo FOX]

Good squad player, he will have his part to play next season.

[Bezzanator89]

Club is still moving forward I see. Nothing more than a squad player to step in when Ndidi is injured. Because it's as clear as day that he cannot play alongside them.

[Fox92]

Fvck me. 2 year deal too.

Give over

solid dependable player. Knows his role at the club. Satisfied with that, and certainly better than shelling out €25m on someone only slightly better and not really needed

This is standard - even if we only need him for 1 year, it gives us a chance to actually sell him on, rather than just let him leave...

[Sharpe's Fox]

Not sure about this tbh. He reminds me so much of Puel whenever his named is announced I get the urge to boo.
