Bilal El Khannouss joins - Official

[squidsworth]

Seems like a careless player to me, often loses possession and maybe just isn't mustard enough for the intensity of this league. Probably ok in the lower leagues or some European teams.  Has plenty of pot shots but only occasionally do they end up the right side of the sticks. 

Not our worst player by any stretch but also has a lot to prove still, maybe he can do something in the championship, if he still around. Wouldn't begrudge him that opportunity.

[Buzzell]

Has good potential and I reckon he would thrive with better players around him. He’d be a massive player for us next season, if we keep him, but I very much doubt that.

Let's be honest, would probably be the best front 4 the division has ever seen.

I think Vards, Nugent,.Lloyd Dyer backed up by Chris Wood is right up there.

Mahrez Nugent Vardy Knockaert is probably the shout isn't it!

[dbtcity]

Would love it if we managed to keep hold of him for next season as I believe the numbers he’d rack up would shadow what KDH produced…. But realistically I’d be amazed if Bournemouth away wasn’t the last time we see him in a Lcfc shirt

Really hope he stays, he would be ridiculously good in the Championship and I think he would actually benefit massively from it

 

Wouldn’t really blame him for going or the club for selling though if the £30m or so offer turns out to be true

Agreed, with Fatawu back, BEK, Fatawu, Mavididi with a sprinkling of Alves, Monga and Evans hopefully is the kind of attack that tears the league apart

 

Just need a competent striker to add to it

 

 

[em9999]

I can't see him staying sad to say cuz he's gonna grow into a great footballer

[hejammy]

He's certainly the most skillful player we've had since Mahrez, honestly think he needs a season in the championship as he's a bit rough around the edges (for example with shooting and decision making) but unfortunately money talks. 

[Clever Fox]

He has the Talent, He just needs to learn the game which he's doing right now.

Another year with us will do wonders for him. Without the pressures of a big club move.

Maddison? 

[fazzyfox]

With it being a World Cup year next season does that become a factor for him (and one or two others)?

[splinterdream]

Gonna hurt him going, the only glimmer of light out of the darkness. Club should be on their.hamds and knees promising to build.a team around him, if he was with us next season we'd have a very good chance of automatic promotion place 

[StanSP]

Based on highlights I've seen today he deserved a goal. Especially with that bit of skill to nutmeg their player and then just shoot over.

Under a quality manager and coaches this can be ironed out fairly quickly.

My player of the season 

[Number 6]

Slightly controversial but I thought he was a little wasteful of the positions he found himself in today. He's a good player but his actual goals and assists output remains lacking, and you could see why today. 

 

He'd be an absolute star in the Championship, thought I could understand him finding a better option elsewhere.

[Ian Nacho]

Unless he has a silly relegation release clause I think he'll be here next year. His end product is still too wasteful to be commanding top money.

His end product could be better for sure but he was the best player on the pitch today and at times was running the show. Just hope we can work a way out to keep him next year. Provided a great cross for Vardy who applied a cracking half volley with his left peg. Highlight of the match.

This is exactly why he needs a year at the pace of English football but at a lower level. He thrives when he’s allowed space like yesterday and like when the bigger clubs afford it to us. Next season we have plenty of low block opposition and he’s got to learn that side of the craft 

[Finn Claw II]

I think we signed him for about £21m.  It’ll be interesting to see what we do if we get a £25m plus bid.  Hard to turn down £30m.  He’s clearly technically good enough.

 

Abdul, him and Mavi would be pretty immense in the Championship.  You then have McAteer and Alves also.

 

Feed Ayew and he will score….

Feed Ayew and he'll pass back if he can actually get to ball.

Fatawu without a doubt takes that award.

Nah. BEK is more skilful. Fatawu is explosive and can take on defenders. I would argue both don’t quite achieve the output they should though. Nice to see BEK get an assist yesterday l, but there haven’t been enough goal contributions. For both players it will come.
