Bologna have just lost Thiago Motta and will be a nothing club again soon Fair that….hope you’re right as I think he could develop into a solid option for us at no extra cost 1

He's literally the only left back we employ. Who stated on record his move to Leicester has left scars on his soul I highly doubt he will want to come back. He's done here. Get what we can and move on. 1

Bluearmyfox28 Posted 29 May 2024 Posted 29 May 2024 To be honest I think Kristensen is over rated on this forum. He looked uncomfortable whilst on the ball and is not great going forward. Great defensive full back with great energy but not for me. 3

Agree in a way but also if you have him left back and allow him to stay there and defender a bit like Simpson then allows Mavididi to concentrate on attacking and use all his energy for that like Mahrez

You do realise he was only 21 in December and since he left us has had a full season and played European football? He was used sporadically and questionably by our previous dunderhead of a manager in an allegedly poisonous atmosphere for him due to the prevailing player cliques at the time, hardly a setting to thrive. Under the right manager I think he'd come good and increase in value quickly. We certainly haven't got a better more traditional left back. Doubt he'd want to be here though sadly after his previous experience. At 21yrs it would take some great footballing insight to right him off so quickly. KDH would be well gone. 1

Finn Claw II Posted 29 May 2024 Posted 29 May 2024 Things change - Rodgers and Enzo not the managers for him but him, JJ and Ricardo are more than capable full back options in the Prem

He is what you get when you sign young players, which a lot of this forum has always tried to push for. He had only just turned 20 when we signed him, and he relocated and joined a complete basket case of a team. Furthermore, there were reports of pretty nasty behaviour towards him from a few of our players who should have known better. When you sign like this, you need to expect that they are going to develop / learn / improve, and they aren't the finished article. I thought he was patchy for us but there were good performances (his cross to Castagne against Wolves pretty kept us in with a shout to stay in the PL). He's had a well regarded season at Bologna and is in the provisional squad for Denmark. Feels like following a sh1t show that leicester offered him his career is now on the right path. He's clearly shown a great aptitude to improve and will continue to do so in the right environment. If we get Corbaran, i would love for the club to be talking to him about restarting his journey with us as he could be a real asset. Sounds like there has been a managerial change at Bologna so it's unknown if they will be looking to change their style or not, and we know what finances can be like at Italian clubs. 4
Claridge Posted 29 May 2024 Posted 29 May 2024 Be great to have attacking fullbacks after Enzos borefest last season. Get Ricky back in his proper position and a bit more strength in his midfield position. We went up despite Enzo playing pretentious pretend Pep last season
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 29 May 2024 Posted 29 May 2024 Keep until the new manager is in and has the chance to asses what we've got. Goes for all the others as well. 3

He left Leicester last summer on a costly loan for 1 million with a redemption set at 15, because Maresca would have seen a future for him as a central defender in a 3-man defence. Maresca went to Chelsea , Leicester returned to the Premier League and Bologna would not want to spend 15 million to buy the Dane. He would like to negotiate a discount to around 8-9: but it will depend on the characteristics that Italiano (or Palladino ) will ask for for the role of left back . On the left, Fiorentina had Biraghi, someone who certainly doesn't play the game they have played in recent years with first Motta Cambiaso and then Kristiansen. 3

MPH Posted 1 June 2024 Posted 1 June 2024 If he truly did have a very successful season, then there SHOULD be a long list of teams lining up to bid for a young defender who’s had a great season.nif they don’t pay the 15m, they’ll miss out.
oxford blue Posted 1 June 2024 Posted 1 June 2024 I'm hoping Bologna don't wish to pay agreed fee and we keep him; I thought his abilities, energy were great - far better than others in our relegation season. He may have made some mistakes, but I don' t see a player not able to adapt (and improve) to any manager. (and that would have included in Maresca in Championship). It would be crazy to look for alternatives if we don't have to. 1
