BlackFox Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/exclusive-tottenham-and-leicester-city-monitoring-norwich-city-midfielder/ He's young, versatile and has PL experience. Looks like it could be a good signing and not that costly. Just rumours??🤔
Foxes96 Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 Not 100% sold on Cantwell but is young and English and would provide decent cover for both Barnes and Maddison. Although would prefer Otavio for that role and likely a cheaper alternative as well. Oh and has it been mentioned.. he’s Brazilian 2
Popular Post foxfanazer Posted 26 January 2021 Popular Post Posted 26 January 2021 Makes James Maddison look hench. Heavy gust of wind at the KP and we'd lose him 1 15
Les-TA-Jon Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 Not convinced, especially since we didn't actively pursue him in the summer and no other PL move materialised.
lcfc sheff Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 I quite like him, he’s got something about him lots of confidence
Pliskin Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 I think he would be a decent squad player for sure!
casablancas Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 What’s his season been like so far in champs?

casablancas Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 Tar both. Think on that I’d prefer the Brazilian lad and he’s probably work out cheaper and has UCL experience. But as usual I know nothing.
sdb Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 Squad player at best. Wouldn't want us to spend big on him.
Crocyfox79 Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 Not the criteria we’re looking at tbf has he played for Norwich this season in the championship yes ok demari gray could be gone to bayer Leverkusen for me a striker is a priority
AS1413 Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 No thanks. There might be potential in there but wouldn't want to be the club that risks trying to find it.

Bergen fox Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 (edited) If we wanna be a top 4 established team, then this is not the signing that gets me excited. Edited 26 January 2021 by Kent-Fox

Kante was scouted and watched playing for Caen, much like Mahrez with Le Havre and Vardy for Fleetwood. I would argue we were well aware of their talent and potential prior to purchase. Cantwell is a known figure in English football and hasn't impressed anyone else thus far. I'd also argue that we would be paying a figure for Cantwell which would reflect an established, quality premier league player (which he isn't) rather than the minimal fee's we paid for others mentioned.

I was very impressed when we played them at home. One of the few players I saw give Ricky P problems last season.
Guest Sharpe's Fox Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 (edited) As me dad referred to him “the poofy prîck with the long hair”. Edited 26 January 2021 by Sharpe's Fox

Perhaps I'm being a little harsh and snobbish - just for me personally, I'd like to see us aim for something a little better.
tetly Posted 26 January 2021 Posted 26 January 2021 Right position but he isn’t the one to improve us there.

I'm sure if we were going for him we would have carried out the same level of scouting and analysis as we did with all our players. We'd hardly be going for him on a whim.

We'd hardly be going for him on a whim. I was referring more to the 'risk' of unearthing someone potential and the fact that those names were unheard of by most of the footballing world.

Well you seem to be suggesting that he hadn't been scouted etc. But hey it's not worth a big debate so I'll leave it there.
