Popular Post baldeagle Posted 13 January 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 13 January 2021 Didn’t know where else to stick this and it’s stolen from a fb post but when you look at our recruitment like this it’s quite brilliant .

I think spend £30m Max on Edouard and I wonder if selling choudhary is to fast track Tavares into the first team squad. Then come the summer the squad doesn’t need anything other than free agents and loans in the next two windows at the very least. So many quality footballers out of contract Like I've been saying lately, you'd get Edouard for half of that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do love my condiments, the Aldi own brand tomato sauce is faultless. I do pay top whack for Frank's Buffalo wings sauce though as it's worth uts weight in gold. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i'd imagine it's more around us wanting to invest in people who will have a big resale value, rather than players who might end their career here/leave on a free a season or two later. *european based ones since our growth in stature... Albrighton obvious exception. Our present model appears to be, as you've described, maximise value from younger players . As an aside I wonder how many of the many quality free agents available in the Summer ended up in the EPL and how many of those did anything much? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not heard anything substantial from anyone who is a decent source but I think all the stars are aligning for a January exit, he's changed agents (or rather now has a proper agent lol), our season is a dead rubber and his contract is running down. I'd be more surprised if he wasn't a Leicester player come the end of the window. I'd be fairly happy getting that sort of deal for him now all things considered.
