coolhandfox Posted 29 April 2021 Share Posted 29 April 2021 (edited) I'd take 5m to be fair. Unless someone else come in and starts a bidding war. Edited 29 April 2021 by coolhandfox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just happy to get a fair chunk back especially as he's nearly 29 and one year left on his deal. A bit like Musa when we nearly got all our money back on him despite him being terrible here. One great World Cup and we sold when his value had peaked and within two years the buying club had released him on a free.

South Shire Fox Posted 30 April 2021 Share Posted 30 April 2021 (edited) I would of thought with the stats hes been putting up this year that even if Besiktas wont pay the 7 million we’re asking for, someone else will Edited 30 April 2021 by South Shire Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor player More likely just a huge misjudgement by Claude Puel about his capability to add something to our squad. To be fair to Puel, didn't Soyuncu, Pereira, Maddison, Evans and Tielemans all sign during his tenure? I think he just made a huge mistake with Ghezzal. No manager gets it right every time, though poor Rachid never looked like a player that would prosper in this league. How Claude didn't see that, we'll never know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that’s a fair comment, but it was easy to see he wasn’t the option before we signed him Maybe there was no alternative. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My memory (though it fails me a lot these days), is that we were pretty much scrambling around by that stage just to get someone in. You're absolutely right that even Stevie Wonder could have seen that he was unlikely to have an impact. It's unusual that a new signing has such a negative response from such a sizeable group of a clubs fans, but many weren't impressed from the get go. I seem to remember comments from (some) Monaco supporters who were astounded at the fee we paid too. Yep, a very strange signing from an otherwise pretty astute manager. There were other mistakes (alongside his successes), but none nearly as costly as Ghezzal. C'est la vie I suppose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor player Ghezzal was a gamble ( he didn't even starts for Algeria) just last game when he was something like mahrez (we were surprised about his performance ) And the Algeria fan base of leicester is huge ( you can't believe till you see it ) ,one of the most loved and followed teams in Pl (don't be mislead by social media ) Edited 1 May 2021 by erabil05 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barisoo Posted 3 May 2021 Share Posted 3 May 2021 as a besiktas fan ı would say that he's not enough for epl and he'll never probably but for our league and that levels he's perfect and 5-6 million will be so good for a none epl player hope we will go on agreement with you love foxes and cags loves from turkey 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
