Gazza M Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 Seem to be going down the Bennett level of signings again now. I thought the club were strong enough to not be lured in to this. Rather sign no one.
Ian Nacho Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 We really are sleepwalking into relegation with signings like this. 4

when_you're_smiling Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 Reading up on him it looks like he’s very up and down. Seems to have periods when he’s brilliant and obviously has talent, but then seems to end up off the rails. The Bundesliga young player of the year for 17/18 but also worry about what looks from a distance at least like a move away from the signing of players as much due to character as anything which has served us so well. It’s obviously a gamble but maybe with our situation of having little money and very little time, a gamble for someone unwanted is all we can afford. 7 minutes ago, st albans fox said: Can I ask a question if he did well at Marseille last season, why didn’t they try and buy him (or at least loan again) this season ?? I’ve seen reports they were interested in him after a strong finish to the season, but he’d also been indifferent before that. They might think it was a gamble they didn’t need to make.

Molson Canadian Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 If this does happen, i'm not feeling confident about him based on what i've read and seen via youtube. Hope i'm wrong of course.

Popular Post CosbehFox Posted 29 August 2022 Popular Post Posted 29 August 2022 (edited) It’s on the cheap, and a potential signing where you are throwing shit at a wall hoping it sticks. He ain’t a winger. He’s physically small and lacks pace. We’ve been here before. Throw in a very questionable personality. We have the bingo of LCFC signing attacking players since 2016. You might as well go with someone like Josh Bowler or an utter pace merchant to stretch the game. Instead we’ve gone for AMC who occasionally plays on the wing with a very indifferent scoring record and a club who’ve been a basket case haven’t deemed worthy of keeping Edited 29 August 2022 by Cardiff_Fox 6

jonny_wright Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 One of those signings you just know will be a disaster before they’ve even signed

Lesta Legend Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 (edited) By the looks of it we don’t have many options, which is no surprise as we’ve not been able to sign anyone and all our targets are probably long gone with a few days left of the window. Why people expected any different is laughable, we’re not splashing out on anyone and this player is clearly a huge risk but signing a top player isn’t as easy as football manager.

Molson Canadian Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 Leicester City could solve a couple of problems, should they complete the signing of Schalke star Amine Harit, who they have shown an interest in. Leicester have been one of the quieter sides in the Premier League during the summer transfer window. Indeed, the Foxes have brought in just one player: Alex Smithies. They have not started the season in the best form. The King Power outfit currently sit 19th in the Premier League, after picking up one point from three games. Recruiting a fresh face or two might help them to get out of the tough spot they find themselves in. German outlet Bild reports that Leicester have ‘signalled their interest’ in Schalke midfielder Harit. Not only might that help the Foxes out, it could also take a weight off Schalke. The report states the German side want to ‘remove’ Harit from their payroll, given financial troubles. He spent last season on loan at Marseille, which offered Schalke a shirt-term fix. The report states they were hoping the Ligue 1 side would take him off their hands, but they are not willing to spend the required sum. As such, Schalke will hope that Leicester are indeed keen on taking Harit on board. He will apparently cost around €10million (£8.5million). That should not be a problem to the Foxes, who have spent nothing so far this window. As such, they may be able to help Schalke out of their predicament, and end up with a decent player, too. Harit could add to Leicester quality Adding Harit into the Leicester side could add to the quality that they already have. Indeed, the Morocco international contributed to eight goals last season, and has twice contributed to 10 league goals during a season in his career. Given Leicester to finish off games this season – losing a two-goal lead against Brentford, and then drawing the next two Premier League games – adding another player with attacking talent may not be a bad plan. Indeed, failing to score against Stockport County after 26 shots also shows the need for more quality. Another reason for Harit seeming a good signing is the form of James Maddison. While the two might not play in the same side, given they operate in the same area, Leicester will want to give him support. They will also not want a drop-off in quality when he does not play. There is also a chance that he leaves for a bigger side at some point, given he has performed consistently for a few seasons. Having a ready-made replacement in the side will be a bonus if that does happen. 1
Phenom Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 Those off field incidents should rule him out even if his stats are good. 1

LestaLad Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 (edited) Really struggling to get excited by this, usually I get excited by anyone, especially this close to the end of the window, but this screams a nothing player. If it’s for cover/Perez replacement then fair enough, but please don’t be our main winger signing. Edited 29 August 2022 by LestaLad
FoxOnWheels Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 If it is our main winger signing then we belong in the championship 1
