foxes_rule1978 Posted 30 August 2021 Posted 30 August 2021 These people saying he is left wing only, yes he has played there more but he is young enough and actually played enough on the right to adapt, he would be a great signing. Barnes, Vardy Odoi looks great to me
Guest Kopfkino Posted 30 August 2021 Posted 30 August 2021 (edited) Unless we’ve suddenly found some cash down the back of the sofa, there’s not a hope in hell we could afford this, surely? Edited 30 August 2021 by Kopfkino
LFox99 Posted 30 August 2021 Posted 30 August 2021 Going through different sources and numbers, his wages seem to be in the range of 100-180k. I don't know how willing he'd be to take a pay cut to something more manageable for us in exchange for basically getting all the gametime he wants

foxes_rule1978 Posted 30 August 2021 Posted 30 August 2021 He is versatile can play many positions upfront, he is worth getting and we can help bring his game forward. Still young and needs that game time to progress

Oh don't get me wrong he wasn't always great but then again looking at the players we have at the minute in wide areas there's still a lot of room for improvement with them as well....not sure whats happened to Barnes lately.

adam95581 Posted 30 August 2021 Posted 30 August 2021 I’ll probably get pelters for this but I don’t see him being a huge improvement on Gray. His end product is probably slightly better but he has never looked like he can really impose himself on a game consistently. There are flashes of brilliance but if the alternatives weren’t so underwhelming I don’t think people would be as keen. 1
Sharpe's Fox Posted 30 August 2021 Posted 30 August 2021 With his wages this will be a hard deal to pull off, unlike my knob which will be very easy to pull off if we do this deal. 4

The melt down.

RowlattsFox Posted 30 August 2021 Posted 30 August 2021 Doesn't take a lot to get people excited this close to the end of the window. There is no way we'd pay what he or Chelsea want so this is a non starter for me on a permanent basis. Loan? Maybe, but not sure they'll be up for that.
LFox99 Posted 30 August 2021 Posted 30 August 2021 Just now, Gevans_97 said: Smokescreen for Dan James. Literally just signed for Leeds

Barnes, Vardy Odoi looks great to me He can do both, but his output is much better on the left, since he is right footed and wants to cut inside (rather like Lookman)

We make it a loan with obligation to buy for say 30-40m, moves the financials into next year, we agree to a buyback of around 50-60m and I could see Chelsea being interested

May still be wrong of course.
happy85 Posted 30 August 2021 Author Posted 30 August 2021 CHO buy back clause . Reporter very close to Chelsea
FoxesWalk Posted 30 August 2021 Posted 30 August 2021 His reported current salary would be higher than everyone at Leicester City except for Schmeichel and Vardy. That’s if we don’t give him any pay rise at all to move...
fox_favourite Posted 30 August 2021 Posted 30 August 2021 I think this would be a good move for everyone. He has talent and Rodgers will be able to get the best out of him. Think he has struggled to get ahead of other players at Chelsea, so it’s worth a shot. 1
