They'll activate the obligation soon enough, and pay the fee.  The 25ish includes the loan fee.

It wasn’t binary. We could have played them together. Besides BEK and Buonanotte are much better players than Reid.

We could have just carried on with Enzo system and had them both in.

Buonanotte being better than Reid last season was more about the latter's contribution being so poor. It was hard to tell what Reid was supposed to be for. 

 

It's obviously beyond anyone's ability to draw conclusions from Buonanotte's single Premier League appearance for a total of 46 minutes with a WhoScored rating of 6.12 this season, but I'd prefer to start at QPR with the BDCR of last few games' than last year's Buonanotte.

Reid is running hot, good championship player but there is a reason Brighton and Chelsea have signed Buonanotte - it's because he's a good player. Reid is a lower PL/upper Championship one. 

 

Buonanotte scored 6 and set 3 up in 19 nineties (16 starts). Reid is at 6 and 2 from 17 nineties (18 starts) with 4 of those goals coming in the Championship. Plus Buonanotte isn't even 21 yet.

The only saving grace was he was clear from the beginning. But the difference in attitude from him to James is chalk and cheese. 

 

Bilal to me isn't a Leicester player anymore, the person we build around, if we can get him permanently, is Jordan James. Great attitude, great ability and clearly wants to play for us. 

 

We need more of this type of player cing in now. Not players with poor selfish attitudes; winks, Bilal, Faes etc...Im fed up with them. 

 

Skipp, BDR and even Vesty to a point are players that have had plenty of stick, but are now showing us they have the right attitude.  That is what this club needs.

Rudkin logic, reject 30M from Palace to accept 25 from Stuttgart. 

[JimJams]

Palace didn't come in for him cos they got a better deal on Pino.

[Nods]

Pretty clear cut, this. 

 

Anybody saying he's a pr!ck for being honest about wanting to play at the level he is clearly good enough for, is simply showing their lack of intelligence. 

 

How you can't understand that any one of us in his situation wouldn't do the same is, frankly, unfathomable.

 

If he downed tools for a game or two as the deadline approached, it'll have been to force our hand. 

 

It's another thing entirely to down tools outside of transfer windows.

Hope he keeps doing interviews - our big income next summer if Fatawu doesn’t go. And with two windows without any outlay,L and players on high contracts, could be a very important summer!

Sold to Stuttgart for 17 million (plus 3 million they already paid for his loan).

Scored 8, assisted 6 in 33 appearances for Stuttgart in the 2025-26 season.

Twenty two years old.

Can't wait for Top and Rudkin to spend the proceeds on someone like Ayew.

Well they did sign BEK in the first place, so it's not like they always make crap signings.

 

Just more often than not.

What proceeds? We've barely broke even on him!

[Dan]

Another piss poor deal from the specialists in decline.

Topkin paid more for him than what they just got for him from Stuttgart.
They could’ve taken another chance and continued to loan him to the Germans for another season; if his number stay high, maybe he would been worth  a few million more. It’s not like we have a lot of players to sell…

[sm1]

What a basket case of a club. Bilal largely has a successful loan and we still make a loss.
