An Sionnach Posted 7 August 2023 Share Posted 7 August 2023 There is nothing to suggest he is better than Praet - yet. As Dennis is likely to see out his last year , a couple of poor games and the youngster will be benched. We can carry no passengers. So many loanees end up on the bench as we have often found out. Reading had little quality so he got minutes but that is not guaranteed with us. If he is prepared to accept that , then fine , come and show us what you can do.

Praet is one who is likely to leave(if we get an acceptable bid), its been on the books for a couple of summers now, Torino want him but they want to pay peanuts as @Sambiasso said, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn't Praet been a passenger for his time at Leicester? I'd much rather bring in Casadei at the fraction of wages than continue to pay Praet just to sit on the bench. Praet in the championship is just fools gold. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After yesterdays performance I think he would be fine in the postion he played, of course a backup is probably needed incase winks or kdh or preat get injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea , I presume , know that. No guarantee of playing time can be offered. That applies to any loanees who come here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he helps us get promoted then he's worth more than £3m and saved wages. I'm sure he's being over paid but it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry are favourites for the play offs and they could have one yesterday. It's not like we played Plymouth at home. We played one of the top sides and based on yesterday's performance. I say put Praet next to Dewsbury-Hall, and I'd be willing to wager he hits double figures in both goals and assists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, what I mean't was he has not really played consecutively and deserves a chance as he looked quality yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh no! I agree with you and what your point was! We don't know what would have happened if he played consecutively and now he's playing well, albeit for 30 minutes, people still want him gone. I would even argue he's probably our most attacking midfielder to but hey ho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUHILL Posted 7 August 2023 Share Posted 7 August 2023 Does he actually want to be here though? Championship level or not, we can't make the same mistake we made last season with having players disinterested and eyeing moves away. I like him as a player, always have, but if he wants a move back to Italy as rumoured, or he has no intention of staying with us once he is forced to run down his contract next summer, is he really going to be as motivated when we have to dig in and grind out results?
