Still room for a Premier League club to match it and nick him. It's what happened to Toby Alderweireld.

can we all just calm down. Bit? Even he has said he’s shocked by his form. Maybe this is just a hot patch and not his normal level. Let’s just wait and see.

Let's hope not... otherwise our offensive struggles are even more dire... not to mention creativity

If this is his normal level, I’d gladly take it……..Soumare, Skipp, Ayew, he has shown more appetite in 3 months than they have in 3 years……oh and we don’t really have a captain….someone who plays every game and leads from the front…. ( no disrespect to Ricardo, great player, when he plays)

I think he's just being humble to be honest. In general he speaks like he believes in himself, fair play to the lad!

Casadei wasn't a good signing and Perez (as much as I thought he was decent) did not live up to his £30m price tag at all.

[TheGoldenGod]

We saying Castagne was a good signing as he was part of the FA Cup squad? Because I didn't rate him, wasn't particularly remarkable in any area!

 

EDIT: In fact after checking, the last time Fulham won when Castagne started was against Cambridge . He's been dropped in the league and Fulham are winning again...

Soured towards the end (as it did for the majority of the squad) but he was very good in his first season - and for 15m I don't think it can be classed as a bad signing by any means.

Best player to ever wear the shirt

Was going through it in my head and ended up with a similar total if not exactly the same names. Perez I thought was an OK player but tough to get away from the price tag and the opportunity cost of therefore not signing a genuinely good right winger (or arguably a genuine right winger at all) instead, and Casadei I thought was probably the weakest of the three loan signings that season. Then in the other column, Cannon I probably wouldn't say was a good signing necessarily because he wasn't up to much but overall you'd probably have to say we did good business with him by ultimately making a profit on someone who scored two goals for us.

[Winchesterfox]

There have been some good signings, but far too many stinkers.

I thought he was a good signing. He was always solid for us. Very much a mid-table Premier League player which was to be expected for the price.

 

A 7/10 player and a 7/10 signing IMO. Just solid and dependable without ever doing anything amazing.

[FoxesTalker]

He's a very likeable player on and off the pitch, and gives interviews which aren't too generic (similar to Maddison in this respect). The club should be looking to build the team around players like Jordan James, and it's refreshing to have a player who firstly wants to be at the club, and secondly wants to realise his ambitions of PL football here.

Roughly right yeah.

 

Golding has still got a way to go to justify his £28m price tag so I think you've got that one correct for sure.

Fair enough then, maybe I'm scarred from that PL relegation season and distinctively remember him picking his nose when Oshimen breezed in behind during the EL campaign!

I liked him, pretty versatile, his attitude was always good unlike some, just a competent but unflashy player. We overpaid massively though given he had a year left.

[ALC Fox]

I think James coming in with such a positive attitude has also been a big difference. I feel it gives players just an extra 1% or maybe a little more.

 

As soon as he walked through the door he said that he and his dad used to say a club like Leicester would suit him and he genuinely seemed really happy to be here from day one.

 

That kind of an attitude will see him through not just matches but the day-to-day training, travel, recovery, briefings, interviews, everything.

 

I think if you're happy in life, your work will benefit and I do believe this transfer has not just a huge difference to our squad but also to him as a player and person.

 

After a difficult season in France, it's great to see him thriving personally and benefitting the team as a result.

 

I know it's early days but right now I think we should just get him permanently in Jan while the good vibes are strong, then risk the free loan space on another area we need to strengthen.
