happy85 Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 Torino are now set to offer their ‘last resources’ to get the signing done, offering Leicester City a loan with the obligation to buy him for between €8m and €10m. (@tuttosport) 1 2
taupe Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 £8m to £10m? Dear lord, why bother even responding.
tsintskaro Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 just let him go this feels like a toxic relationship already

taupe Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 Seriously, what value is there in even entertaining that offer? Would they pick up 100% of his wages? He's a decent enough player (when given the chance to show it) and certainly better than we could get for £10m. Better the devil you know. It just makes no damned sense. You watch the club go and accept it.

You watch the club go and accept it. It makes quite a bit of sense. He has added next to nothing for us since he came here, so that would be a set wages freed up to try somebody else.

Squad is unbalanced, it reminds me of Sven time here. Mendy is limited but was does DP do that he can't? Edited 29 August 2022 by coolhandfox 3

And in that whole bunch there's 2 creative players and one of those looks like he's towing a caravan most weeks. As for the first name on that list.... Edited 29 August 2022 by iancognito 1 4

Indeed if they pay a few million for a loan fee and agree to cover his salary in full both this year and after the purchases, then €8/10m isn’t unreasonable 1
Popular Post l444ry Posted 29 August 2022 Popular Post Posted 29 August 2022 Keep him. Would most likely be a great asset under a different manager, which might happen pretty soon anyway. 9

TrickyTrevLeftPeg Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 (edited) Dosen't score enough, dosen't create enough. Not an enforcer nor a ball winner. Yes he can be nice and tidy but not really sure what he brings when playing. Having a bit of energy about you only gets you so far in premier league. We should look to cut losses and sell.

Chelmofox Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 (edited) He looks like he just wants to be put out of his misery as he has the same enthusiasm as Brendan. Get him gone. Edited 29 August 2022 by Chelmofox 1
lcfc043 Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 3 goals in 63 games. V Burnley, Braga and Southampton. Says it all 1
fuchsntf Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 (edited) Get Praet feeling liked & he is involved.. He needs regulär gametime, But still according to managers / Coaching-staff thoughts & requirements And no fan can yet judge him...!! Not One of oud Quality players ( First choice) in this while last season & 4 games have yet delivered 3-4 consistent games.. So lets Not bet into Praets underwear, and write him off.. Edited 29 August 2022 by fuchsntf
UHDrive Posted 29 August 2022 Posted 29 August 2022 Praet is great in 1-2 touch passing in tight spaces moreso if you have an effective ACM in the team. Other than that he isn't a traditional winger. 1
