Seems to be going to Sheffield United based on recent reports, unless I've missed something of course.

Yep  - prefers a relegation scrap to a promotion scrap.

second after THB 

Yes the 2 targets most excited about lost out on before 10am lol. Was never going to happen. Don’t know why it makes me so frustrated thinking the only reason we can’t sign these players is because poisonous deadwood that either won’t leave or has had zero interest in them. This mess is going to take a lot longer to clean up if we ever will and we could be stuck with 300k not even in squad 😂

Go to Sheffield: play 30+ Prem games, most as starter and be on the losing side probably about 22 times. Get maybe 5 or 6 goal involvements and then seek another move in June 2024 after Sheffield get less than 30pts. 

 

Or

 

Come to Leicester: play 35+ Championship games, Unclear whether he would start every game and enjoy promotion while getting 10-12 likely goal involvements. Develop in a progressive style and not have to seek another move for a fair while with us being back in the Prem and having eyes on returning to the top half and subsequently Europe. 
 

Hmmmm.

This is a pretty big part of it for me. 

 

He's got some pretty fierce competition here from KDH and Casadei. Not only is he being asked to come back down again but with no guarantees of a natural place as well?

You need to apply to be Mr McAtee's life coach.

Hmmmm. 

Or play in premier league. Completely Stand out in a weak side. Sheff united get relegated. Then have a number of teams come after him as he was a stand out player or even become a man city option -

 

Or he could be a rotation option with KDH and Casadei here?

 

At moment we are a championship club... Top half of prem and Europe is so so so far away.

not as fussed about mcatee but the fact our lack of movement has allowed rivals to get both THB and Piroe really stings. Could be pivotal come the end of the season when we look back.

"Lack of movement?" 

 

We can't force people to buy our players. The damage was done months/years ago. By all accounts, I'm not sure we've done much "wrong" this summer.

Why does it sting?

 

THB was always a luxury signing and not guaranteed to start here anyway and Piroe was never on was it? He was only ever going to be a Kel replacement.

We're stacked for CBs and Coady is hopefully returning soon so not too fussed by THB. 

 

How important missing out on Piroe is depends on whether Ihenacho goes - no way we were signing him if him and Vardy were staying.

He's already completed most of the second option though, nothing to prove in the Championship so why not test yourself in the Prem

If we can ship Daka, Soumare out today, and get a another striker, midfielder in we've had an unbelievable window.

 

People get far to caught up with what other clubs are doing.

 

We got the strongest/joint strongest squad in the league.
