Thought Vic looked great when he was with us. Even was with the first team at times

Rotherham played on Saturday and Tuesday.   After tonight's game, they don't play until Sunday.  Crazy fixture congestion.

I think they had quite a few games postponed due to a Covid outbreak

Matty James and KDH are both playing well, so in the squad next season? Neither are going to need another loan. Matty gets along very well with Rodgers apparently. Only other loanee doing OK in the championship is Josh Knight in a pretty poor team. A few interesting decisions for these three soon. Matty is still a class player so don't write him off yet.

James is a hell of a prospect

James doesn't seem to be able to cope physically with prem football, he had a loan before played every week, came back to us and got injured again, he did earn his last contract in that time though

True, but at the moment he seems fine and he has very miles on the clock. Mendy,who I rate, might want to move on to get more starts . Matty , I' m sure would be happy on the bench for anytime Wilf is unavailable.

In the summer he will be 30 and his contract runs out, also with his injury history you can’t put 100% faith in him staying fully fit if we really need him, and to be honest I just don’t think he is up to premier league quality anymore

 

Better off letting him go and get himself a contract for a club he can spend the latter years of his career at, and us to keep Mendy or sign someone that Rodgers would prefer

I wouldnt give Matty James another penny after the last 6 years his dodgy knees have fleeced from us. Good player in the Championship undoubtely but that 4 year contract extension for someone with his injury record was an absolute disgrace. Wish him luck for the future though and hope he can stay fit for his next club.

There was an article not long ago and he was diagnosed with kidney stones which led to infection and hospitalisation on top of coming back from a horrible injury. I think contract extension was just the club standing by him, on a human level.

There's lots of things that can be defined as an 'absolute disgrace' in football, to which I don't object.

 

I really do object, though, when people use such strong language about a player who was actually very good for us getting a contract extension. 'With his injury record' forgets that he signed the contract after recovering from an ACL injury. That was his only major injury issue up to August 2017 when the deal was signed. His future injuries were achilles tendon injuries, AFAIK, and as another poster points out he was hospitalised with something completely out of his control. He came back at the start of 2017-18 under Shakespeare and looked really rather good, and the club wanted to reward its player. It's no different to Iheanacho getting a contract after a run of half a dozen goalscoring games.

 

We are not a charity, I agree, but King Power and the football club have cultivated a culture in which we look after our own and recognise the contributions people have made to our journey. We don't have many injury prone players at the club because we have one of the finest medical and sports science teams in the country, and have done for years. James was extraordinarily unlucky and has been very good in all three of his Championship loan spells, to a point where it looks completely undeniable that if he had stayed fit throughout he'd have been a very decent Premier League player, likely in City blue.
