scinnell Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 (edited) Ricardo (might move to CM), Justin, Thomas, Woyo, Aluko - I'm not sure if we need another body in this position, especially because it might block the path to the first team for Aluko and we have flexibility from other players to play both sides. I'd rather stick to Thomas at left back and see a nucleus of Leicester talent, who want to play for the badge and have the hunger to get the club promoted. Also, if we did sign Toffolo then get promoted, we will have too many good championship full backs that can't make the step up to the Premier League and we will need to sell to buy again.

st albans fox Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 Psr deal? they pay us 20m and we buy him for 10m ?? (Effectively a free)

LCFCCKEANO Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 If we sell off Kristiansen could be a good deal although with Cifuentes using both full backs to tuck in to the midfield could really suit JJ out at left back where he played his best footy for us

STEVIE B Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 (edited) Maybe I’m being a bit dumb, but how are we linked with anyone, without a manager in place & Rudkin ‘involved' ? Edited 13 July 2025 by STEVIE B
Scotch Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 I get that having RB's who can play LB is a good option to have but I wouldn't say it's ideal. Surely if would be preferable to have two ACTUAL LB's. Aluko, Woyo, JJ etc should ideally be considered for their primary position. Especially Aluko. Give the boy a chance before shifting him out of position. 1

FoxinNotts Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 Don't need him. Even if Kristensen leaves. Just don't need him 1
FrankieADZ Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 no point given the youth talent we have coming thru, as theyve shown they are more than good enough
Tielemans63 Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 Could be a key signing for Wasserman & King Power FC
jv1 Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 Don’t know if it’s this guy or not but we 100% need a new starting left back - the 2 we have are absolutely horrendous

LCFCJohn Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 We don’t need him. Luke Thomas along with Harrison Burrows and Leif Davis will be the best left backs in the league. I do think we need to see what the manager preferences are though as if we play the inverted bollocks again, LT might fall victim.
jayfox26 Posted 13 July 2025 Posted 13 July 2025 Other than a striker, I don't see the point in signing anyone. We've too many players as it is and need to be giving minutes to the academy players. 2

Jesus really- Luke Thomas couldn’t even get a game at Middlesbrough and didn’t get a squad sniff last time at this level he is utter rubbish - I’m not having that at all - selective memory 1

No they won’t don’t be silly - Thomas has zero form at any level and the other 2 haven’t played a game at this level - wow 1

Agree with that apart from up top and left back - if we go in with Thomas and daka we are screwed even at this level

We also have Justin and Coulibaly. We simply cannot add to this squad until we get rid of at least 3 or 4 players.
