Ricey Posted 31 August 2022 Author Posted 31 August 2022 I think his directness and dribbling would be an asset to us, but of course it doesn't solve our main problem. If it was an economical loan then it's not too bad. Lookman was a LW but he was still an improvement at RW compared to Perez, Albrighton, Ricardo etc. 1

You’re wrong mate, most of the ones we’ve signed just frustrate. They go very easy on the delight. 1

Do we just not want to play with a right winger? It's astonishing and what makes it worse is we seem to try and go for right wingers, fail and then just go for left wingers instead and point out they are disappointing on the right.
Stadt Posted 31 August 2022 Posted 31 August 2022 It's almost like we don't have a head of recruitment or analysis in place. Rudkin's head should roll.

We don’t know what’s gone with his personal life or how he was with his last few mangers. Perhaps he comes in, gets on well with Brendan and thrives. Fingers crossed, aye?

We’re doomed I tell you, DOOMED.
Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 31 August 2022 Popular Post Posted 31 August 2022 Honestly think I'd rather Adama Traore on loan than Boga. 9
Gazza M Posted 31 August 2022 Posted 31 August 2022 Sounds a bit Congerton for me with it being Atalanta. Bet our illustrious manager still has him on speed dial. 1

We don't have a Head of Recruitment employed but we so have one starting soon who is on gardening leave. I'd be very surprised if he's not having some input remotely at this stage. Maybe explains why we are signing the sort of players that Southampton would.

We are so predictable… we also need two wingers. Pleeeeease. We’ve just bottled it here and gone to Congerton to do is a favour and get it done quickly basically. 1
Jakemoore Posted 31 August 2022 Posted 31 August 2022 He scored a goal every 5.5 games for Sassulo which really isn’t bad for a winger. If he comes in and gets 1 in 7 and a couple of assists I’d say he’s contributed well for a loanee.

South Shire Fox Posted 31 August 2022 Posted 31 August 2022 Feels like the Lookman signing last year, underwhelming at the time but he turned out to be a decent bit of business. Would take this guy on a loan with an option to buy. Would still prefer Sarr as the first choice though

I remember when my non Leicester mates always said how envious of how front footed, quick our forward players were. We’re slower than my local vets team (I’m not knocking them as can play for them now too) 1

Edingleyfox Posted 31 August 2022 Posted 31 August 2022 I suppose any winger will reduce the likelihood of playing 3 at the back which is something. It is a gamble to rely solely on Harvey. We are not going to get a player like Sarr for much less than £25 million so I can't see that happening unless we sell 1-2 at the last minute.

As I said above, if he's coming in as an option for both wings then I'm definitely on board. But as we're all saying, if he's our first choice right winger (or rather, signed as such) then that's crap recruitment. Fingers crossed.
happy85 Posted 31 August 2022 Posted 31 August 2022 Smokescreen for a another winger possible Akanji was our target but signed Wout Games being played 1
