Wouldn’t be surprised if the Castagne money instantly gets reinvested in a centre back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edwards is a real talent, very talented on the ball but can easily get bullied and is poor in the air. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 13 August 2023 Share Posted 13 August 2023 20 hours ago, Tom12345 said: Guys, before someone can be captain and be listened to, they need to earn the respect of others. Cody may well have the attributes, but he has not earned anyone’s respect simply by showing up. It would have the reverse effect if he is thrown in there to act as captain without having done anything for the Foxes. It is not like he is someone like Ronaldo either who has done extraordinary things outside of the club that others will respect. No disrespect, but Cody played for Wolves and he was out of favour. Cody is no Henderson. He is clearly not ready to be made captain here. Yes it is different, but look at what happened to Macguire at Man U - made captain as soon as he arrived without proving himself. The fact that the manager is even mentioning Cody worries me about the manager’s own lack of experience. Vardy has been here for a very long time, helped us win the PL, showed loyalty and is still here despite being relegated. That in itself is half way towards being a successful captain (show by action), and it is especially important for us this season after being relegated (to show that we need to stick together and stay to fight to compensate for the bad showing last season). Ricardo has been here for a while now as well. Both internationals. Neither of them have had the chance to be captain so it is hard to conclude what you said. Plus, whether they are good leaders or not, they would have more respect amongst team members. Why would Vardy, Ndidi, Winks etc listen to Cody? Coady is the new captain. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are referring to the Doyle and Faes role then definitely, Edwards has a lot of similarities to Faes for me. Where as THB can play in any of the 3 defensive roles to a very good standard and is better defensively as a whole. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Countesthorpe Fox 1884 12 Posted 14 August 2023 Share Posted 14 August 2023 Not sure if anyone has already posted this but Peterboro sound keen to do a deal with someone, bizarre article. "You should have seen him against Leicester when he didn’t make a mistake or give the ball away against some top players. "He’s now far too good for us and I don’t believe he will still be with us when the season starts as he is made for some of the teams in the Premier League. “This is not me making an advert for him, but clubs need to be serious and do the right deal.” Ronnie Edwards is still at Peterborough United?

Brizzle Fox Posted 14 August 2023 Share Posted 14 August 2023 Zak Vyner. That is all. Has turned into a Rolls Royce of a footballer over the last year or so. He's the identikit of the type of CB that Enzo would want for his system, and is in the last year of his contract and as yet isn't signing the new contract that is on the table.

jv1 Posted 14 August 2023 Share Posted 14 August 2023 100% needed- we definitely need to move on one or both left backs though - unfortunately for both of them enzos formation doesn’t play any left back and neither Thomas or Kristenson can play left side centre half - we only have justin for cover at Cb until coady is fit - need 1 more for sure - faes , coady , Doyle , vesty, justin and 1 more is plenty to cover across the back with Ricardo in that hybrid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
