Jordan Ayew (interest confirmed by Percy)

[Lesta Legend]

Agent is Wasserman…

[Ryy]

Ayew having me on Leicester 

[LestaLad]

Golding, whose never played higher than the u23s, De Cordova Reid, Okoli, now potentially Ayew..

 

What an utterly embarrassing window that is. Obviously I know theres still time but bloody hell..

yeah that tbf; lower league stuff he aint bad, but hes very hit and miss

 

would be massively odd for us to pay for a 33yr old

[DezFox]

This would be the most disgraceful transfer. Horrible just horrible. Honestly I could see it being like 5 mill aswell and palace just won’t believe their luck.

It would be for any other club. I would expect it for us

nah come on, be serious, look at our past transfers, when was the last time we paid a transfer fee for a player over 30?

think it was Jakupovic in 2017

so it would be a massive change, 

kinda like when everyone was thinking KDH was gonna go Brighton.....but them paying £30mil for a 25 year old didnt add up, which proved to be correct

we are going down and the club know it. we know we are gonna have loads of points deducted meaning relegation. we are signing players who will stay in the championship who are great for the championship. gonna be an ugly season

I give you Ryan Bertrand..

We've been here before sadly!

[Jakemoore]

If we sign Jordan Ayew I’m off. 
 

I don’t know where I’m going but I’m not coming back for a while. This stinks.

At least he was ‘free’

[comeonyoufoxes]

i wouldn’t mind it if it was free. i don’t want him to start though

[em9999]

If Leicester city pay 5 mil for ayew I'm gonna ask the club for a pay rise , they obviously would have decided they have money to burn

really like really?

 

who are you expecting to come in? 

 

i wouldnt even call or transfer window embarrassing, look at previous ones, theyve been alot worse.

the reaction to a transfer rumour on here is laughable,

This is an utter disgrace if true. Let's hand out 3yr contracts to 32yr olds looking for a final pay day.

Not ****ing Bobby decordova Reid and Jordan Ayew that’s for sure

[LeePhilpottsBaldSpot]

People writing him off should remind themselves of Shinji Okazaki's goalscoring stats.

 

Cooper is all about split wingers and counter attacks. If Ayew can play that style better than what we've got, I can see the logic.

Here we go again with using a literal miracle side to defend bang average players.

 

In a year we’ll be “having to sell before we can buy” again because BDCR and Ayew are on a collective 100k a week.

 

Give your heads a wobble.

Yes really. 

After battling against Roma to sign Soule I thought that was the calibre of player we would be after, and then seeing O’Riley heavily linked with Southampton would be a kick in the teeth because he would’ve been the perfect replacement for KDH (who we still haven’t replaced). 

I would’ve expected players like Hamer, Chair etc to fill that creative void and who also wouldn’t have been too expensive. 

 

I actually think this could be up there with one of our worst windows if it ends with us signing Ayew.

who said we are getting him? Nixon might have said we "put in an offer"; oh didnt Percy say we are working on getting Soule done too?

 

i dont mind BD-R. can play a number of positions and hes came in on a free; proven in the premier league too. Ayew i'd be very surprised if we are even looking at him, as it goes against all the stuff posted months back about the club going back to the old transfer model

would you rather us do an Ipswich and spend £20mil+ on a striker who couldnt score 10 goals in the championship last season?

Just because he changed to a fancy name doesn’t change the fact he’s Bobby Reid above average championship winger, below average handyman in the PL in his prime which is now behind him.

100% completely agree, not only for the fact that we appear to be hellbent on signing utter dogsh*t, but we've lost arguably our best, most influential player from last season and just decided "F**k it, we don't need to replace him", whilst watching other clubs around us strengthen. The signing that cost us a portion of our transfer budget, we decided to spend on one position where we are arguably covered adequately, and it doesn't seem like he (Okoli) has improved us.

Been going on for a while and we all know it, we're asleep at the wheel. Promoted, uninspiring managerial replacement, utterly hideous window, relegation. And some on here will try and soften the blow of that reality with "We're signing players who will be ideal for the Championship next season" .. Mind boggling.

Time to walk away lads. Thanks for the 20 years of memories on here.

 

This is heartbreaking but I can't hack this anymore.

Rudkin you really need to take your  medication every day after meals.  It is very dangerous when you miss out your opioids.  Now buy yourself a pill box from Boots and shut this total nonsense down before there are suicides amongst FT members. There’s a good chap.
