jeffschlupp Posted 29 August 2020 Share Posted 29 August 2020 Torino have reportedly offered us cash plus Lyanco, we've asked for Nkoulou. This article which quotes Tuttosport suggests we fancy Nkoulou even without sending Praet the other way. https://m.torinogranata.it/amp/primo-piano/il-leicester-vuole-nkoulou-anche-senza-il-cambio-con-praet-109943?__twitter_impression=true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeybradger Posted 29 August 2020 Share Posted 29 August 2020 If we can get 15 mil for him i would take it, he's invisible far too often, meanwhile KDH and Tavares are constantly looking to get the ball at their feet and control the game.

He's not good enough, flatters to deceive with a decent ball every once in a while. Watch him when he's not got the ball he's constantly in no man's land making no effort to find space. The contrast between him and tielemans and maddison who are constantly finding pockets of space between the opposition lines is massive, would rather have KDH who already has better off the ball movement despite being 4 years younger. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDH is too much of an unknown. I like him after watching him last season but if he's in the squad this year it must be as a last resort. Praet keeps getting pulled out of position that he came here to fulfil so its hardly his fault and one of the reasons they got into that half time bust up. Irrespective though you can either use his continental experience in EL or bring Silva back into the fold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nnfox Posted 29 August 2020 Share Posted 29 August 2020 Praet and Tielemens should have swapped positions today. Praet was clearly in the role of "advanced midfielder". Tielemens was deeper. IMO that is where Praet is strongest, and I like to see Tielemens in the final third as much as possible. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolhandfox Posted 29 August 2020 Share Posted 29 August 2020 Has lot of technical ability, but very little impact on games. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edingleyfox Posted 29 August 2020 Share Posted 29 August 2020 Praet is a decent player but not one who often has an immediate positive impact perhaps because he is more defensive. We need a really good midfield general who can control the centre of the park and get a few goals but Praet has not quite done that so far. In terms of priorities for now we need to sort out central defence full backs wingers and another striker.If finances are short and a decent offer came in I would sell him assuming the money is used to fill one of the other slots.

I genuinely don’t understand how people can naively think that the football club is immune to the financial shit that the world economy is in right now. It is becoming more apparent that we don’t have millions to just splurge and I thought that would be pretty obvious to most by now, we haven’t made a signing before selling Chilwell and we’ve spent money consolidating by keeping our most creative player happy as his best mates just swanned off to London for circa £200k a week, we’ve just given the managers favourite player (Vardy) an extension for 2 years and tied a left back prospect, who most rate higher than Chilly at the same age down to a multi-year deal. We will spend money now but we have to be realistic with expectations as a fan base. Even though I do agree that we don’t have millions to spend and we have to be realistic in what we expect. We have taken out 7 loans since 2018 it’s not necessarily a sign that we are struggling financially it could just be so we get the funds upfront to help with cash flow. A lot of clubs do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dayday Posted 31 August 2020 Share Posted 31 August 2020 Kristof Terreur things we will see a better player this season, reckons he took a while to settle at Sampdoria before coming a better payer, same applies at Leicester, also said he thought Youri had a disappointing season, have to agree there.

Would be gutted to lose him but he does deserve better. He has to earn it, and frankly thus far he hasn’t. Feel there could be a terrific player there, but has yet to show up. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
