ronnup Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 Worse than KDH. Laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 I really dont understand the gameplan here... Didn't BR specifically state that we were after an attacking minded player? This doesn't fit that bill. Unless we are after a winger/striker too but I've already resigned myself to one incoming player at best but if this is it, I would rather keep hold of Hamza.

smudger63 Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 WOW! I'm shocked if this is the level of player we are happy to bring in. He is championship level at best. We might as well have brought back KDH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always liked him as a player and would suit us more than Chalobah... Unfortunately been injured for most of it but I agree . Would be a very good player if fully fit .

tetly Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 Would rather we didn’t sign him, we surely have a better option than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayfox26 Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 If we were in a relegation battle, links to the likes of Chalobah and AMN would make sense. Seeing as we are in a title challenge, neither of these are anywhere near good enough for what we need. May as well just play Mendy or Hamza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpe's Fox Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 Christian Eriksen to Chalobah at the start of the window to the end would be the biggest letdown in the history of letdowns. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AjcW Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 Anyone worried this means Wilf is worse than has been let on? If not, then this is just getting a body in isn't it. Bennett was never supposed to play last season, he was just a squad filler. The difference with this at least is that if we do have to give him minutes, it's not in as critical a position as Centre Back. Chalobah is a strange one, but every manager you hear from loves him, Southgate bloody adored him. Obviously Brendan will know him well as well as he brought him through I guess? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 What a seriously underwhelming signing this would be. I’ve watched him play for Watford quite a few times this season, he’s had a few good games, but most of the time he’s looked average to poor. The most bizarre thing though is, he isn’t even an attacking midfielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, this was my concern, mentioned it earlier in this thread. Just hope we are way off base and it’s just Hamza cover. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerrrFox Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 He’s the backup option to Maitland-Niles. We want Maitland-Niles and he wants to come here but so far Arsenal are trying to block the move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdb Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 Percy smokescreen to make up for the Torygraph letting Erickson out of the bag? Can't be true. Just keep Hamza and recall KDH if desperate. Hopefully nothing to do with Wilf's fitness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moore_94 Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 He isn't the only player we are looking at, just one option we are looking at amongst others Not worried about it yet until I see something a bit more concrete (like bid accepted etc.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collymore Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 Smoke screen? What type of smoke screen is this? "No way Leicester are going to sign a player like Eriksen...." "Why is that? " "Better prospects available like Charlobah mate" It's like the smoke a cheap Christmas cracker would generate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose2010 Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 Nothing like a major over reaction on foxes talk during a transfer window. Even if we bring him in it's not like he is going to be a regular he is just an option in Midfield. Bringing KDH back to basically sit on the bench for 6 months and maybe get 10 Mins here and there is pointless and could ruin him for next season.

StanSP Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 Not that inspired about this one.. Just shows how closed the market is if you can't splash the cash like other bigger clubs. Shame we couldn't recall KDH back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facecloth Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 1 hour ago, Dahnsouff said: To be honest, this sounds like a crap call, but our scouting has earnt a substantial amount of trust, and Rodgers probably also has credit in the bank (and even then I strongly doubt he will be given Carte Blanche on signings, due to our excellent record) Our scouting has gained trust with permanent signings, but cheap loans have been absolute shite tbh. Bennett was woeful, I'm not sold on Under either. I would trust them to pick out long term signings, but these stop gap signings so far have not been great.

Ric Flair Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 This is astonishing news but scratch the surface and he's one option that I'm pretty sure is because theres a day to go and his agent has probably contacted us and we are considering him amongst others, as Percy says. If domestic signings are the only real option here with a day to go then theres very little choice is there? Juan Mata barely gets a game for Utd but they wont let a player come to us, nor will any of the top 6 as 2e are a genuine threat to them. We're almost our own worst enemies here. Our best chance is getting McGregor or Christie from Celtic. Pay a £3m loan fee for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would take AMN as best of the rest if we can't land him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winteriscoming Posted 31 January 2021 Share Posted 31 January 2021 So last January we went from Demiral at Juventus to Bennett from wolves. Looks like it’s happening again from Eriksen to Chalobah. I know it’s difficult to get players in January but really?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
